Claire Turner, 4-H Network News reporter, stands in the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada next to the 2008 Academy of Country Music Awards poster, featuring renowned country music artist and 4-H alumnus, Reba McIntire .Claire's thoughts about the hotel: "I liked the lions. There is a tunnel of glass and the lions were laying on top of the glass tunnel. When you were looking underneath them it looked like they were flat. They were big, cute, and very still. I thought they were fake when I first saw them because they didn't move."
