Dear Editor,

Thank you so much for printing the Make Them Kiss the Pig ballot last Saturday. Hopefully people who subscribe to the paper did not miss it! We really appreciate your support of our “fun raising” project.

This is just a reminder to your readers that the balloting will continue until Sept. 30. So readers, if you have not voted yet, please remember to do so. If you cannot find a the large ballot in the Free Lance or cannot make it to one of the local polling stations, you may send your check made payable to San Benito County/UCCE to Kiss a Pig Contest P.O. Box 1956, Hollister Calif., 95024-1956.

If you have not found a candidate that you are willing to support, then maybe you would like to help out 4-H Emerald Star candidate Mark Tobias who is raising the pig to be KISSED. Mark is looking for individuals and businesses that would like to make a contribution toward the purchase of the pig and become a “Friend of San Benito County 4-H.”

Mark’s pig, a market hog will be sold at the San Benito County Fair Junior Livestock Auction on Saturday Oct. 2.

Mark hopes to demonstrate to the board of supervisors just how many people and businesses in the county support 4-H through his project. If you are interested, you can send a check payable to the San Benito County Junior Livestock Auction, to Mark Tobias 6344 Pacheco Highway, Hollister Calif. 95023.

So readers, the choices for you this week are to find someone to vote for in the Make them Kiss the Pig contest or to become a Friend of 4-H by supporting Mark’s community service project. Whatever you decide, please know that you are supporting the University of California Cooperative Extension/4-H program.

By the way, the balloting results as of 3 pm Monday September 13th are:

Anthony Botelho 225

Pat Loe 199

Anthony Freitas 110

Tracie Cone 104

Reb Monaco 57
