President’s Message

Dear Southwest Jr Livestock Show Participants and Families:

Welcome to the 86th annual Southwest Jr. Livestock Show!

The Show continues to offer an invaluable learning and growth experience for all our young exhibitors. Each year, the quality of the livestock and the skill level of our showmen reach new heights, reflecting the dedication, hard work, and pride behind every entry.

With our proactive group of committee members, much has been accomplished as we have prepared for September 9-12. The barn has been enlarged to include a climate-controlled sale arena, additional sheep and goat pens have been purchased, and additional washing stations will be available.

Building on last year’s success, we are excited to bring back our added attractions: the Fitting Competition, and last year’s show favorite, “Old Geezer Show” are also scheduled activities.

We recognize and appreciate the tremendous community support from local businesses and faithful supporters. Their help makes it possible for the show to continue each year

Best Regards,

Shelby Carpenter, President
