In celebration of National Agriculture Week, the Kosciusko County Agriculture Awareness Committee presented the family of Rihanna Hope Prater and her parents, Barbara Fields and George Prater, with two gift baskets filled with baby toys, onesies, story books and bibs. Rihanna was the first baby born Tuesday at Kosciusko Community Hospital Birthplace Center on National Agriculture Day. Rihanna was born at 12:21 a.m., weighing 8 pounds,11.5 ounces and 20.5 inches long. Pictured (L to R) are: Barbara Fields, mother, holding Rihanna, and Rihanna’s brother, Gavin Prater; back row: Rihanna’s father, George Prater; and Waneta Bishop and Lorraine Anglin, Kosciusko County Agriculture committee members. The giveaway is a kick-off for two additional upcoming events. The 17th annual Ag Day for fourth-graders will be April 9-10 at the Kosciusko County Fairgrounds. On the evening of April 9, all families are invited to celebrate the diversity of Kosciusko County agriculture at the 15th annual ‘A Taste of Agriculture in Kosciusko County: A Family Affair’ from 5 to 7:30 p.m. at the fairgrounds.
