HUNT COUNTY FAIR HIGHLIGHTS - May 1, 2016

The Hunt County Fair’s 44th annual Junior Livestock Show has come to a close, but memories will live on for Celeste FFA members. It was an absolutely remarkable year for many as Celeste FFA was awarded three grand champion and two reserve champion titles in the junior market show for 2016. Highlights of the week included Koby Brown’s Grand Champion pen of market broilers, Connor Martin’s Grand Champion market hog, Reid Tallant’s Grand Champion market lamb, Jaxson Dillard’s Reserve Champion market lamb and Dillan Krodle’s Reserve Champion agriculture mechanics shop project. Celeste also had a strong showing in the showmanship competition with Paris Walker winning Champion Junior goat showmanship, Tanner Minter: Champion junior lamb showmanship and Justin Richey: Champion Intermediate lamb showmanship. Several Celeste FFA students participated in the junior livestock judging contest. Team 1 consisting of Cassidy Herron, Jaycee Brown, Britton Evans and Morgan Stark placed 1^st overall. Members of team 2, Justin Richey, Kloe Walker, Koby Brown, and Carson Herron placed 2^nd overall. Team 3 including Paris Walker, Savannah Stone, Preslee Minter and Carolyn Goodman placed 4^th overall. Kloe Walker was high individual of the junior contest and Carolyn Goodman was 2^nd high individual in the junior contest. Shayla Daugherty and Madisyn Douglas worked very hard assisiting during the shows and sale night. These young ladies did an exceptional job of representing Celeste FFA as queen and princess court members. The week came to a close with twenty-four Celeste FFA members selling projects in the Sale of Champions Auction.
