Next week, the Enterprise will provide more details on the participants from each class of the showmanship classes, including a more complete accounting of the Bucket Calf, Horse, and Rabbit shows, as well as the list of buyers, sponsors, and Ad-ons for the Market Sale and Fair.  This week, we will overview the shows and events held at the Fair, as well as results for Overall Grand Champion and Reserve Champion winners and Quality rankings from the wide range of events that took place over the week.

Sheep Show

Showmanship

A large number of participants were on hand for the Sheep Show, which was one of the biggest in recent history.  Due to the high level of competition, both the Show and Quality classes resulted in some amazing sheep this year, with Alivia Waldron taking Grand in both Overall Show and Quality, and Aubrey Shulz taking Reserve in both categories.  A newly added category, Carcass, used an ultrasound to examine the body composition of the animals and name a winner for ideal form.  Asher Brower’s sheep won that award.

4-H Round Robin

The 4-H Round Robin allows the Grand Champion winners from across the Fair events to demonstrate their skills with a variety of animals.  Under the format, those champions show each of the animal categories of the other winners, including their own, and the winner is decided by a combined score across the varieties of show.  This year’s winner was Alivia Waldron.  Winners from previous years are not eligible for the Overall Championship in the event, and don’t usually compete.

Champions: Rawzen Munns (Beef), Abbie Cox (Dairy Goat), Samantha Schrenk (Horse), Alivia Waldron (Sheep), Brooke Isaacson (Swine).

Clippers (donated by Rocky Mountain Power) Winner: Alivia Waldron.

Livestock Judging

Livestock judging gave anyone who was interested the chance to practice their livestock judging skills.  A visiting judge assigned an order to each class of animal (beef, pigs, sheep, and market lambs) and those who paid a dollar were able to submit their score cards to see how close to the judge their own scoring was.  The judge was impressed at how well the winners in all levels performed, and there was only a small distance between the winners of each.  Oneida County proved it has impressive livestock knowledge!
