You will be able to catch some of Kewaunee County’s tiniest but furriest competitors taking the course Monday and Tuesday at the Wisconsin State Fair.
The Kewaunee County Rabbit Hopping Team was squeezing in another practice on Friday before they make the trip to West Allis for this year’s competition. Rabbits can participate in the straight line course, crooked course, high jump, long jump, agility, and team relay events.
This marks the third year Kewaunee Hilltoppers 4-H member Jakayla Steinhorst and her rabbit Peanut Butter have participated in the competition. What started as a curiosity has turned into something Steinhorst and Peanut Butter are really good at doing.
If you are heading to the Wisconsin State Fair, the rabbit hopping competition begins at 9 a.m. on Monday and Tuesday at 9 a.m.
