Local 4H and FFA members spent last weekend making preparations for the annual Donley County Junior Livestock Show & Sale this Saturday, January 9, starting at 9 a.m.
The young people were busy setting up livestock panels and arranging chairs for the show at the Donley County Activity Center.
A total of 79 exhibitors have been working with their lambs, goats, beef and pig projects. Each one has quickly learned that despite the cold and snowy weather, the animals still need to be fed and watered daily.
Preliminary activities will be happening Friday evening as final preparations are made for the show. A chili supper will be held that evening starting at 5:30 for $7 per person with proceeds benefiting the stock show.
An on-site concession stand will open at 10:30 Saturday morning and will offer pulled pork sandwiches, baked potatoes, beans, brownies, and Frito pies. Proceeds from that stand also go to the stock show.
Following the show, the buyers’ barbecue dinner will precede the livestock sale that evening at 6:00 p.m.
The junior livestock association still welcomes donations to the buyers’ club by calling 806-874-2421. Those can also be dropped off at the Extension Office or mailed to DCJLS at PO Box 661, Clarendon, TX 79226.
