Topics will include:
🔹 Proper animal handling and safety
🔹 Showmanship techniques and ring etiquette
🔹 Grooming and fair-day preparation
🔹 Daily care and management practices
🔹 Answers to your beef project questions from experienced volunteers
Youth are encouraged to bring their beef project animal so they can practice what they learn during the workshop.
