The Auction

The Junior Auction is an opportunity for the exhibitors to showcase their hours of management. The participating young men & women have spent lots of time caring for their chosen project: beef, lamb, hog, goat, rabbit, poultry, ham & bacon. As a premium auction the exhibitor will retain ownership of the animals. Meats become the buyers with donations to the ham breakfast greatly appreciated.
