4-H exhibitors presented all-week long, which included a variety of animals ranging from cattle to goats.

One event that took place was the dairy goat and meat goat shows. Youth were judged and evaluated in Showmanship Classes based on how well each youth and goat performed together.





Youth in the Goat Show also participated in Dairy and Market Classes in which animals were judged on respective breed standards and in Market Classes on finish and projected carcass quality.
