Smile

What makes Kyler Sherck smile? “My mom,” said the 7-year-old Cicero resident, a second-grader at Hamilton Heights Elementary School in Arcadia. He was found holding onto his blue ribbon after competing in the Youth Pedal Tractor Pull, ages 6-7 category, at the Hamilton County 4-H Fair in July. “It was easy to pedal.” Kyler said playing basketball, baseball and football makes him strong. He is the son of Matt and Lindsey Sherck and has a sister, Kinsley, 11, a sixth-grader at Hamilton Heights, who also won her age category, for ages 10-11, of the Youth Pedal Truck Pull. What was difficult? “The weights.” He competed twice and the second time, the tractor was too hard to pedal.” Kyler attended the 4-H Fair with his family to watch his sister show goats. Favorite food at the Fair? “Elephant ear.” When he joins 4-H next year, he’s going to show a “black goat named Polly.” He said, “We live on a farm.”  The 2023 Hamilton County 4-H Fair is over but watch for more Fair photos and Fair results in upcoming editions of The Times.
