County Fair

Atley Groteluschen of Columbus, Nebraska, walks her sheep toward the show ring. Participants worked from their livestock trailers rather than the tradition of having stalls in the sheep barn.

Each livestock/animal show is a “show and go” format where 4-H'ers don't stay in the livestock barns as is tradition but transport their animals on the day of the show and work out their livestock trailers. Participants must wear a mask in the show ring. July 10, 2020. Photo by Craig Chandler / University Communication.
