A SPECIAL THANKS TO THE JUNIOR LIVESTOCK AUCTION SPONSORS 

What is a Junior Livestock Auction sponsor? A sponsor is someone who sees more than kids and animals at the fair. A sponsor also sees hard work, responsibility, goal setting, determination, and success on display. A sponsor knows that a steer, lamb, or hog can teach lessons that can't be learned in any other way, and believes that those lessons are worth learning. For many years, 4-H and FFA livestock members have relied on generous sponsors for support. We invite all Junior Livestock Auction sponsors, past and present, to join us at the auction.  As you sit in the bleachers, take a look around. You'll notice that yesterday's exhibitors are today's parents, leaders, and sponsors. Thanks for believing in our youth. Your support is paying off.

The 4-H and FFA livestock members would like to extend a special thanks to businesses, families, and individuals who purchased animals and provided awards and support in 2018.
