– Jerry Apps: I want to tell you a story about volunteers.

One more.

This this gentleman happens to be, today, a circuit judge in central Wisconsin.

He was a volunteer.

He said, "One day, I'm there.

"I'm all dressed up, ready to go to court.

"I'm stopped at the fair to see if everything's going okay.

"And a youngster's calf had run away.

"I'm running after this calf, along with several other people.

"And we run all the way across the fairgrounds.

I finally catch the calf by the tail."

Oh, don't do that.

And he did.

And he had to go home and change clothes and shower before he went to court.

[laughing] But he managed to stop the calf for the kid.

The runaway calf is a continuing story at many fairs.

I have all kinds of those stories, but that one's kind of special.
