Haynes, Hinton win beef division

The top animals in the Beef Division were exhibited by Grant Haynes and Lane Hinton during the annual Donley County Junior Livestock Show last Saturday, January 14, at the Donley County Activity Center.

Haynes showed the Grand Champion Steer, and Hinton had the Grand Champion Heifer.

Other top winners were Madison Smith and her Grand Champion Sheep; Chardy Craft with the Grand Champion Goat; Maloree Wann and her Grand Champion Gilt; and Harrison Howard with the Grand Champion Barrow.

Reserve Champion honors when to Koyt Tucek, steers; Taylee Ehlert, heifers; Shiann Cook, sheep; Izzy Craft, goats; Hannah Hommel, gilts; and Koyt Tucek, barrows.

A total of 69 kids from the Donley County 4-H Club and local FFA chapters exhibited 110 animals during the show. Last year 79 young people showed 135 animals.

The livestock auction following the show generated an estimated $41,525 as of Tuesday morning, and that number will increase as donations continue to be received. The 2016 premium sale totaled about $49,150 at this point last year.
