KIDS AND ANIMALS SEEM
TO GO TOGETHER. More than
1,200 first graders from Brazos
Valley had an opportunity to see
and handle many kinds of farm
animals Wednesday in the TAMU
first annual “Children’s Barn
yard.”
The youngsters from Brazos,
Madison, Grimes and Burleson
counties were treated to guided
tours through TAMU’s poultry,
swine, dairy and horse operations.
The event was sponsored by the
Saddle and Sirloin Club and the
Dairy Science Club at Texas
A&M. The first group of young
sters began their two-hour tour
at 8:30 a.m., and the program
continued through 4 p.m.
Valerie Hendrix, a sophomore
animal science major from Mar
ion, Tex., is chairwoman of the
“Children’s Barnyard” commit
tee. She said busloads of children
drove as much as two hours to
get to College Station.
“The children are having the
time of their lives,” she noted.

In First Children’s Barnyard
Animals Spend Day With 1,200 Kids
“Although many of them are from
rural homes, they haven’t seen
an operation like this with so
many different animals.”
She added the children were
given an ice cream break as part
of their tour, with Blue Bell
Creamery of Brenham, headed by
former Aggie Ed Kruse, supply
ing 3,000 ice cream bars for the
youngsters.
The children were “shotgunned”
through the agricultural complex
in staggered tours, according to
transportation chairman Billy
Lloyd, a sophomore pre-vet stu
dent from Hereford. Each bus
carried a student guide, provided
by two sponsoring clubs.
Highlights of the tour included
a cheese-making demonstration
at the Dairy Science Center, pet
ting tours through animal barns,
and demonstrations of livestock
handling equipment.
Miss Hendrix expressed optim
ism for a continuing “Children’s
Barnyard” program on an annual
basis at TAMU.
