Junior Livestock Support Club

Established in 1975, the Junior Livestock Support Club was created for the purpose of bringing ranchers together who are interested in guaranteeing every single exhibitor a small profit for their livestock. There are more than twenty members who have dedicated their time and money to supporting our very own junior livestock participants.
