SULLIVAN’S

HYDRATOR NOURISHING CONDITIONER

• Replenishes Natural Oils • Vitamins Feed the Skin and Hair • Proper Balance of Natural Oils • Light Weight & Fast Absorbing Scientifically formulated hydrating & nourishing conditioner that uses the hair and skins natural oil make up to formulate the best replenishment of the natural oils and vitamins back into the hair to promote hide and hair health as well has hair growth and strength. We took a look at some of the oils used in todays hair care products and realized that for the high % of the oil used they were only contributing to a low % of the actual nutrition to the hair and skin so we flipped the script and found oils that provide way more nutrition per percentage used with less actual oil so it stays light.

NEW performance electrolyte that enhances muscle definition. The ONLY electrolyte on the market with probiotics & prebiotics for gut health. SULLIVAN’S

RESTORE PRO PERFORMANCE ELECTROLYTE • Increase Fluid Intake • Enhances Muscle Definition • Enticing Flavor • Faster Hydration • Aids in Gut Health Prebiotic & Probiotic

Use Restore Pro as a daily top dress to keep animal electrolytes and gut health in check. Add to animal’s water weeks leading up to travel so your animal will look its best when arriving at a show. Safe for all species of livestock.

FROM THE EDITOR

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

GET READY FOR THE 2019 STATE FAIRS!

he 2004 Colorado State Fair was held fifteen year’s ago this August. I was eighteen years old at the time. My 1,319 pound steer named Buckeye won Grand Champion Steer that year! Not only was it a big win for my family, it was a moment that would heavily influence The Showtimes Magazine you are reading today. That steer is even featured in our logo. I purchased him from Kirk Roecker and Kirk Stierwalt. At the time, I would have never imagined that fifteen years later I would be printing a 650 page magazine that would have a feature by Kirk Stierwalt. The Showtimes gave me a way to not only showcase graphic design, but to also cover exhibitors the way I wanted to be covered. The Showtimes allows kids today to be covered with modern layouts and videos, while also staying true to the history of livestock shows. Winning a State Fair is a big deal. When I was showing, people in Pueblo would always talk about the Schneider family and how they won numerouse years in the 1980s and 1990s. It always intrigued me. When I started to research the history of the Colorado State Fair, I was sad to learn that they had lost all of their photos and records prior to 2015. Luckily enough, through our history of The Showtimes and working with past photographers, we are able to bring you photos, names, judges, weights and sale prices from over the past three decades! It is really cool seeing all of the winners side-by-side. After talking with Kirk Stierwalt, I was able to contact Sonny

Schneider and share the Schnieder’s story today. Not only that, but our August issue also includes a 48 page State Fair Preview packed with locations, dates, history and stories on families from different states! Issue 67 is definitly one of my favorites! We’ve included Show Results from 41 shows across the country! You will find full coverege from both the Double Down in Des Moines and Herefords on the Hill Junior Nationals. Upcoming State Fair Judges Amanda Schnoor and Kirk Stierwalt answer our questions. Plus, every great pasture sale from across the country is included in this issue! On page 435 we’ve included our 2019 Sale Directory that you won’t want to miss. Also, be sure to check out our Showtimes App’s Pasture Sale feature that includes a map and list of every sale in this issue! You can even get directions from where you are, call them or even visit their website directly from our App! Nothing beats the printed version of our State Fair Edition with the power of The Showtimes App! As we head out on the State Fair leg of our I Am Showtimes Tour, we are excited to bring you the best coverage in the industry! Look for photos, updates, live videos and new episodes of Show Center from some of the beset State Fairs in the country! Good luck at the State Fairs!

INTERVIEWED BY: LISA REID

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019 79

aitlyn Ochsner, born and raised on her familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Limousin cow/calf operation is using her background in agriculture and her vocal gift to chase after a dream of reviving traditional country music. The Showtimes had the privilege of sitting down with Caitlyn this summer at her familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ranch in Kersey, Colorado. The aspiring artist opened up about her faith, her family and how the lifestyle she grew up with is influencing her as an artist and an advocate for agriculture.

A fourth generation Coloradoan, Caitlyn’s entire family is actively involved in agriculture. Both her grandpa and dad, Kevin, grew up raising and showing cattle while her mom, Julie, was raised on a farm in Nebraska. FFA was not just a club, but a way of life for the Ochsner Family. Kevin and Julie were State FFA Presidents in their respective states and both served as National FFA Officers. The oldest of three siblings, Caitlyn pursued her own passions in FFA making it to Nationals in both the Creed and Public Speaking contests and was selected as one of the top three finalists for the National FFA Talent competition. The family’s passion for the

blue and gold continues with Caitlyn’s younger sister, Ashlyn, recently being elected as the 20192020 Colorado State FFA President and her brother, Collin, winning the State FFA Creed Speaking contest. While Caitlyn has grown up around cattle and ranching her entire life, both her 4-H and singing careers began at the same time. At the age of nine, while she was getting her heifer and steer ready for the fair, another contest sparked her interest - the Weld County Fair Youth Idol Contest. Although she had only sang in the children’s choir at church, Caitlyn was determined to sing a solo in the competition.

In preparation for the competition she took several singing lessons from the worship leader at church and chose to enter the competition with the song, “Anything is Possible.” Caitlyn recalls, “I just remember when I got on the stage to sing that song – it was like this is what I need to do for the rest of my life.” Since then, Caitlyn’s involvement in agriculture and singing has gone hand in hand. An active member of the North American Limousin Junior Association (NALJA), Caitlyn traveled across the country every summer to the Limousin Junior National with her family. In 2011, Caitlyn was

invited to sing the National Anthem during the opening ceremonies of the National Junior Limousin Show. Since then, Caitlyn has had the opportunity to sing at numerous rodeos, rodeo bible camps and livestock shows – including the Blackout Jackpot. Not to mention countless other venues she has performed at in both the United States and Canada. Some of her most memorable experiences have been singing the National Anthem at the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas in 2014 and traveling with her band to perform at the 2019 National Cattlemen’s Beef Association Convention in New Orleans, Louisiana. Most recently she performed at

at the Junior National Hereford Expo in Denver, Colorado with the historic Yards as her backdrop. When asked how her passion for agriculture has influenced her musical pursuits, Caitlyn explained how the work ethic and faith she learned growing up in agriculture has been critical to her musical journey.

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

“Working hard for something you love is important no matter what the outcome is or what you think it could be. You just have to go for it.”

She explained how writing and singing songs is just like picking out a calf. You start with a good prospect (a good line or melody) and a little bit of hope for what it can become. Then you nurture it and develop it into a complete song. It

starts with a vision and some inspiration, but it’s the hard work and “elbow grease” that turn that vision into a reality. Just like the cattle business, when you surround yourself with great people you can achieve your biggest dreams. Similarly, good music requires a team of talented people and there is no place filled with more musical talent than Nashville, Tennessee. Caitlyn made the journey to Music City in 2016 to attend Belmont University where she will be a Senior Year this Fall. With Alumi like Trisha Yearwood, Josh Turner and Brad Paisley and a talented faculty and staff, Caitlyn is right where she feels God has called her to be. After landing in Nashville, Caitlyn began using her life experiences to write

her own songs. She has capitalized on her background of being a trueblue “country girl”, to write songs that resonate with farm and ranch folks all across the country. This summer, Caitlyn debuted her first EP at the Greeley Stampede with four new singles: Home, Drunk Girl Tears, I’ll Follow You and Deadweight. To date, she has nearly 50,000 streams on her first single, “Home.” She is quick to credit God, her family and her extended family in the livestock industry for the support and encouragement necessary to take this first step in pursuing her musical ambitions. While Caitlyn dreams about one day being a recording and touring artist, she was also quick to say “Between now and then there are a lot of things that can happen

and a lot of doors that can open and shut. But through this journey, and all through my life, the one thing I have to rely on is my faith and the knowledge that God has a plan for my life.” We finished our day up at Ochsner Limousin in one of the family’s pastures with a picturesque view of the Rocky Mountains. While the family moved some of their pairs on horseback, Caitlyn got out her guitar to play her newest song “Love Like Lonesome Dove.” A song that has been, for good reason, an instant hit to anyone that has heard it. Caitlyn Ochsner is a gift to country music and a blessing to the livestock industry. The passion that drove her while she was showing cattle, is the same passion that has propelled her in chasing after a music

dream - a dream that has allowed her to take the values, principles and experiences of agriculture and rural America and share them through her music. “So what’s the goal? People ask me that question all the time and I think the real goal for me is to be able to live my dream of singing and doing what I feel like God has called me to do,

while shining a light on the people in agriculture who put food on the table, clothes on your back and provide for the rest of the World. Agriculture is the heart of America and that is what I want people to see. The American farmer and rancher needs to be recognized and I want to share their story through my music.” •

KIRK STIERWALT WILL BE JUDGING THE 2019 INDIANA STATE FAIR STEER SHOW THIS AUGUST! HE TOOK THE TIME TO ANSWER SEVEN QUESTIONS ABOUT JUDGING, LEARNING AND CONTRIBUTING TO OUR INDUSTRY!

ONE

TWO

THREE

What made you want to be a judge?

What do you do when you’re not judging?

How many clinics have you put on this year?

I think it all started as a kid showing. I always looked up to the judges and always thought they were on a different level. I guess they were someone that people respected their opinion. The other thing is, I think it’s neat that you get to hang out and be around people that have the same passion as you do, and it also brings out the stockman in all of us. It’s fun to look at awesome cattle lead by amazing youth. About as inspirational as it can get. It’s a phenomenal program.

I’m usually doing a clinic or event somewhere. It could be anywhere. I love and am blessed with what I get to do and who I do it with. I’ve been doing them for 32 years and I’m involved with our cattle /ranch operation in Oklahoma. We raise club calves, registered and purebred cattle. We have both spring and fall calving herds. We also offer custom fitting services. We are a busy family, but we are family owned and operated. That’s what makes it so awesome and special. Family is what’s it’s about. We compete as a family, we work as a family, we win as a family and we lose as a family. But we get back up as a family too! We’re pretty diverse in what we do from cattle to equine to sponsorship/partnership responsibility’s to our supplement business. Hobbies: Hanging out with my family and fishing! I love a big bass!

I have not counted . I usually don’t until the end of the year. Last year I did 68 events in 29 US states and 5 Provinces in Canada. I love what I get to do and am thankful for it everyday. I’m these kids and their families biggest fan!

SEVEN

What is the best steer you have ever judged?

What does your ideal market steer look like?

What are you looking forward to the most at the Indiana State Fair this Summer?

What are your goals for the future?

I have two. I can’t say where or when to protect them, but I witnessed a young boy in a wheelchair showing a steer. That steer was perfect. I’ve never seen an animal so show broke. That young man always had him set up. Step him right into stance... It was awesome to watch both of them work together. There wasn’t anything those two couldn’t do in their minds. It was an honor to watch. I had the honor of being one of the three judges at the National Western Market Steer Show. The red steer that won that year unanimously.

I’m more of a package guy than drawing to a single trait. I like cattle with balance that blend several moderate traits together . I appreciate natural depth and eye appeal combined with a mellow look. I like stoutness, but the right muscle shape and definition. I don’t have a particular size and weight. I just look for the best one in my mind, but want them market ready and structurally sound in their skeleton design.

I’m looking forward to seeing a great set of cattle and even greater group of youth talent! The Indiana State Fair is in the heart of the Midwest. Historically known for superior livestock and agriculture. I know the ISF committee is focused on showcasing the youth with the Final Drive selection in each specie and trying to improve the show yearly. I look forward to seeing it! The show is spectacular!

My future plans is just keep doing what I’m doing as long as I can to help this program thrive! I think we all have to come together as a livestock family and group, and participant in keeping the 4-H and FFA programs continuing. We all can contribute in one way or another. It all helps! These youth are our future. Also, to keep trying to raise and broker the best cattle we can. Steers, bulls and heifers. To continue the educational clinics. 32 years - I’m a stayer. It’s a constant update. I love meeting new people and families. We learn from each other. It’s all so rewarding! Very thankful everyday!

BY: LAURIE REID, SHOWTIMES

DIRECTIONS

Crust To make the dough, in a food processor, pulse the flour, salt and granulated sugar together until combined, about 5 pulses. Add the butter and process until the mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 pulses. Add 3 Tbs. of the ice water and pulse 2 or 3 times. The dough should hold together when squeezed with your fingers but should not be sticky. If it’s crumbly, add more water 1 tsp. at a time, pulsing twice after each addition. Turn the dough out onto a work surface, divide in half and shape each half into a disk. Wrap the disks separately in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to overnight.

Filling In a large bowl, combine sugar and flour. Add peaches, blueberries and vanilla; toss to coat. Preheat over to 400 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll each half of dough to a 1/8” thick circle. Transfer one circle to a 9” pie plate. Trim pastry to 1/2” beyond rim of plate. Strain filling and add; dot with butter. Cut remaining dough into 1/2’ wide stripes. Arrange over filling in a lattice pattern. Trim and seal strips to edge of bottom pastry; flute edge. Brush crust with milk; sprinkle with sugar. Bake 40-45 minutes or until the crust is golden brown an the filling is bubbly. Coo on a wire rack. Enjoy!!! I love it chilled overnight! •

KAYDEN TANNER TEXAS

Kayden has been fishing since he was very young. He got serious about it his Junior year. He met a kid at the 2017 Jr Nationals, in Mississippi, who was looking for a fishing partner. There was a pond close to the show grounds and, of course, Kayden has his rods in the trailer. The two of them fished between contests and decided to join up and fish for the Texas High School Bass Association that coming season. They just finished their second season together, sitting 3rd AOY for their division.

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

Kayden has been accepted to fish for the Tarleton Collegiate team, starting in the Fall then plans to transfer to A&M and apply for vet school. Despite his hectic schedules between cattle and fishing, he has been extremely blessed to be connected to two amazing industries. He has received scholarships from showing livestock and bass fishing. There arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t too many hobbies out there that will pay for college like these two have! He is making lifelong memories and lifelong friends through both!!!!

MAKE THE WORLD

AND A YOUNG MAN’S BID TO

icture this dream job: a young man gets up, throws on boots and a pair of jeans, and heads down the road to the home where he grew up, has a ham sandwich from the fridge for lunch, and spends the day with his folks, working in a business he’s known for as long as he can remember. Well, that’s just how 25-year-old Justin Willoughby describes his dream job, because he works with the family he loves in a business venture that links the timeless art of auctioning with the fast-moving, ever-changing world of on-line sales, utilizing a new software platform he helped create. Understanding Justin’s perspective requires an awareness of his upbringing. He was born into the world of livestock sales, courtesy of his parents and their penchant for working well together and succeeding in building a family business centered around buying and selling livestock. Justin even remembers, as a young child, having to turn the auctionring into a highway for his Big Wheel tricycle, to get in some playtime. The only problem was, he actually did it during a live auction! When Justin was just four years old, Dan and Carol launched Willoughby Sales as their first family business, conducting live auctions on location. As Justin grew, so did the business, aided in no small part by Justin’s love for showing animals. “Justin’s success in showing at the local, state and national level kept us relevant and visible as the business bloomed,” Carol said. Even more growth was ahead. Though Dan’s education at Purdue University was in the field of agriculture

education, and no one mistook him for a technology wizard, Dan had a vision for utilizing the capability of computers and the internet to connect more buyers and sellers through online transactions. One day, a conversation with a couple of associates quickly led to the birth of Willoughby Online Sales. The venture began with timed online sales and expanded to live simulcast sales, which involved live streaming and bidders participating remotely.

All the while, Justin was gaining appreciation, awareness and knowhow for all aspects of auctioning. “When you put something in an auction, you can tell what it’s really worth,” Justin explained. When he went on to pursue a degree at Indiana University, he even found that online auctions could provide a great college job opportunity. Living in a house with several roommates, Justin would gather a dozen or more fellow students together around a table during evenings, and they would get out their computers and close as many as a couple dozen on-line auctions a night. Justin also experienced the ups and downs of growing the family business, as his folks encountered and solved

problems. One of those problems ultimately proved to be Justin’s ticket to his future dream job. Willoughby on-line sales had grown to the point where they were conducting as many as 2,000 sales per year, utilizing leased software to run the live and timed on-line auctions. But the software became a limiting factor. “We ran into problems because it didn’t’ meet our needs, given what we had started doing,” Dan said. For one, when they were conducting sales, they had to hit a refresh button every few minutes to keep current with the sale activity. A missed refresh meant a sale would end prematurely. For Dan and Carol, that problem was just the flip side of yet another opportunity. But now, they had a third person in the family who shared their mindset. “Dad asked me about the idea of us building our own software,” Justin recalled. “And I jumped in.” In 2015, they reached out to a software company and began the development of their own auction software program. “I was able to bring my own experience into the auction business,” Justin said. Yet, even though his passion for auctions as the ultimate

method for selling and buying is obvious, he noted, “Everyone said I talk to slow to be an auctioneer, so I knew I’d better go the digital route.” So Justin joined-in the effort to launch W2 Auction Solutions – that’s “W” for Willoughby and “2” for the latest version. The Willoughbys had the advantage of knowing exactly what capabilities were needed, including an easy interface for customers to work in; a running clock and automatic refresh for timed sales; built-in text messaging and e-mails for “outbid notices;” customer access to bid history; and invoice management. They also wanted to be able to market the software to other auction companies, which meant making it a multiuser platform, because there just wasn’t anything else available that addressed the major needs they saw. Dan also devised an ingenious way to ensure that their software could keep up with market trends. “When we formed the corporation for W2, we established a 50/50 ownership arrangement between the Willoughby family and the computer software engineers,” Dan explained. “That way we could maintain a competitive edge. These developers are truly vested in keeping our product at the forefront

because they have part ownership.” When the new software was ready, it offered all the advantages they had imagined and more. With one system tied into a single database, a customer only has to register one time, and only needs one account as a user. W2 also is scalable because it is cloud-based. If there is an overload, another server will start up to handle the volume of users. Additionally, there is a backend office component to simplify everything from invoicing to payments. Furthermore, W2 is mobile-friendly across all devices.

motivated, full of ideas about what would be the next big thing, always forward thinking, very easy going, even-keeled, easy to work with, and very calming.” She added, “He has an ability to connect with people regardless of age or gender. He’s the kid with manners who can relate to anyone and enjoys it.”

are frequently fantastic at explaining the capabilities of the system and can demonstrate expert usage of the software platform, but frequently lack the comfort necessary to be a customer-facing representative...Justin is extremely capable in both areas, which is a skill-set that’s incredibly difficult to find.”

Justin said he especially likes interacting with clients and demonstrating the capabilities of

Pete also credits Justin with having a perfect combination of business savvy and technical adeptness. “He understands the auction business as well as any of his colleagues, even those who have been doing it much longer. At the same time, he intimately understands the technical capabilities of the platform...”

W2 is headquartered in a barn in Hamilton County, Indiana, on the farm where Justin grewup. So, now married and living in his own house, Justin indeed heads back to his childhood home to go to work. For him, there’s no stigma about working for his parents. “I like it. I love seeing mom and dad every day. It’s a benefit of the job,” Justin explained. “I can grow the business with my own spin on it, and they provided me the opportunity to do that.”

Ask about admirable qualities, and she can list them easily. “He’s very

W2. “It’s interesting to hear from others what they are going to sell with the program,” he said. The most interesting item he’s encountered so far? “Racing pigeons.” W2 colleague and software engineer Pete Zappulla said Justin fits well into the role of Technical Sales. “Often times, salespeople are very capable of satisfying the customer-facing requirements of the business but only know just enough about technology to be dangerous,” Pete explained. “On the other hand, technologists

Justin’s perspective on working in the family business reflects the qualities that endear him to his co-workers. Becky Drlik is a long-time family friend who has known Justin all his life. She joined Willoughby Sales six years ago and now is the key point of contact and customer support person at W2. She said Justin has had a pivotal role in the businesses’ development. “Being in the auction industry his whole life, he knows how things operate on the administrative side, from start to finish,” she said. “And his familiarity with technology and the internet also has been great.”

Justin now looks forward to continuing to help the business grow and expand, hoping to see the software become utilized in a greater variety of auctions involving everything from race horses to antique cars. But he also hasn’t forgotten his “roots” – the sheep shows and sales that started it all for his family. Regardless of where the business of digital auctions takes him in the future, Justin says you can always count on finding him at his all-time favorite event in March -- the annual Midwest Elite Show and Sale that his parents started more than 20 years ago in Indianapolis. “I wouldn’t know what to do with myself if I wasn’t going to that sale,” Justin said. And what else would you expect from “a kid with manners?” •

ONE

That’s a hard question to ask. When I was younger showing, I love to sit in the stands and just watch shows and try to get the correct placings as the judge did. When I got older, I just loved to evaluate, so I judged in college. I would say the biggest impact was when I was younger watching people judge that I looked up to. I decided that I wanted to do that. TWO

When you are not on the road judging, what do you do?

Well in the past year, my life has changed a little. I’ve moved back to my hometown with my husband. I am on the family ranch more now. I truly enjoy family time. THREE

How many shows have you judged this year?

SIX

FOUR

SEVEN

What is the best steer you have ever judged?

I have seen so many good ones! I love the prospect steer shows because they all look good. When they reach that market steer ring, that’s when they’re truly the beasts! I would have to say the one that won Iowa last year was pretty special as a fat one.

What are you looking forward to the most at the Ohio and Iowa State Fairs this Summer?

In Ohio, I am looking forward to working with Scott Bush and bouncing ideas back and forth. In Iowa, the quality is something that gets me excited. But mostly, is working with the young people.

WHO’S JUDGING

What made you want to be a judge?

humbled this year. It’s been pretty busy in the judging circuit, and I’ve been fortunate enough that my husband supports me being on the road. I’ve judged about 10 to 12 jackpots and beef expos. I’m looking forward to Simmental Junior Nationals as well as the Ohio and Iowa State Fairs this August.

What are your goals for the future?

We all have goals, both personal and professional. God has blessed me, and I have reached so many that I never thought I would. So at this point, my goal is just to still get the opportunity to sort cattle.

FIVE

What does your ideal market steer look like? Stout, sound and a killer look.

I’ve been truly blessed and

DILLON BROCK (one) My favorite steer I have ever worked on is... There are many and it’s hard to narrow this one down but I’d have to say Aidyn Barber’s shorthorn steer this year Sid.

FILL IN THE GET TO KNOW A LEADER IN THE SHOW STEER INDUSTRY. BY: DILLON BROCK, INDIANA

Dillon Brock, owner of Brock Show Steers, Lafayette, Indiana, specializes in locating and matching elite show steer prospects with youth from across the country. Some of his proudest champions over the years have led his team to the backdrop at most Midwest State Fairs, Kansas City, Louisville, Denver, and numerous Beef Expo’s and Junior Nationals across the country. •

(two) My biggest pet peeve is... A feed bag left open. (three) One food I could eat every day for the rest of my life is... Any kind of potato. (four) If I could have dinner with one person past/ present/future it would be... Dean Martin. (five) My fondest memory is... 2002, my first time walking a steer into the Pepsi Coliseum at the Indiana State Fair. (six) My greatest accomplishment is... Winning a steer show on the hill in Denver. (seven) I would never go to a show without... My clippers. (eight) There should be a livestock show in... Vegas. (nine) One thing most people do not know about me is... I have 4 siblings. All brothers.

SPECIAL FEATURE

BY: ROBIN KLEINE + KYLA FAWCETT

FROM THE RANCH TO THE SHOW RING, FAWCETT’S ELM CREEK RANCH IS BUILDING A FAMILY LEGACY IN THE REE HILLS.

Four National Western Stock Show champions, Two Junior National Hereford Expo Champions, numerous national show division champion and reserves, as well as a myriad of state fair and local show champions. If you follow the Hereford breed, you probably recognize the Fawcett name and ECR prefix. Winning in the show ring is nice, but for the Fawcett Family, it’s a love of the land, the livestock and the lifestyle that keeps them in business. The Land For more than a century, the Fawcett family has ranched in the Ree Hills near Ree Heights, S.D. The original ranch was homesteaded in the Green Valley by Keith’s great-grandfather, John Fawcett. John’s four sons, including Keith’s grandfather, George Fawcett, formed the

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019 237

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

FAWCETT’S ELM CREEK RANCH

partnership Fawcett Brothers. Later, the partnership was dissolved, and George took over as the sole owner of the ranch. George and his son Robert, Keith’s father, ranched together, slowly buying and leasing more land from their relatives, to increase the size of the spread. After graduating high school in 1977, Keith Fawcett joined the ranch partnership with his parents. He and Cheryl married three years later and had four children – Daniel, Matt, Erin and Kristin. Fawcett’s Elm Creek Ranch (FECR) was formed in 1985, and Daniel came back to the ranch after college and officially became a partner in FECR in 2013.

238

In 2019, the patriarch of the FECR, Robert Fawcett, passed away. He left a lasting impact on his children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren. “I have seen many changes in agriculture over the years,” he said previously. “I witnessed the transition from horses to tractors in the 1940s. I’ve seen a boom in technology over the years. My goal has always been to make the best better, and we always aim to keep improving through the generations.” Living at the ranch, the family operation now includes Keith and Cheryl; son Daniel, wife Kyla and children Hollis and Ivy; daughter Kristin, husband Weston Kusser with their daughter Falon and another baby due in August 2019; and son Matt who helps at the ranch on weekends. Daughter Erin, lives in Seattle, Wash. with fiancé Adam Kaufmann. The pair help whenever they are home. Today the ranch spans more than 16,000 acres of native grass pastures and farm ground near the original

homestead. There are 1,000 head of registered and commercial cows to calve every year, 1,300 backgrounded steers and heifers on feed and nearly 150 bulls being developed for next year’s bull sale. The herd is primarily Hereford, but a group of Angus cows are kept to raise purebreds and F1 baldies for their commercial customers. Since the beginning of FECR, the goal has always been to grow and expand. “We never decreased our herd size,” Cheryl says. “When the grass was short, we rented more pasture or bought hay in to keep our numbers.” “What gave the ranch such a push was the help of Daniel and Weston. We’ve added new buildings and can fix things quicker. We always have someone around to feed and keep things going with Weston, that way Daniel can be on the road at shows or spend time in the pasture studying the herd.” She says, “It was a turn for the positive when the next generation joined.”

Kyla mentions that it truly is a family affair at the ranch.

The Livestock You might know the name Daniel Fawcett from the show ring. In 2014, he was selected by his peers as the 2014 Hereford Herdsman of the Year in Denver, the same year ECR Who Maker 210 ET, won Grand Champion Polled Hereford Bull at the show. In 2016, the Fawcett family bred both the Grand Champion Horned Female and Grand Champion Polled Hereford Female at the Junior National Hereford Expo. Both Keith and Daniel are softspoken. They are observers by nature and happiest on the ranch, surrounded by Herefords and their family. Daniel likes to study the females in his herd, watch the calves mature and use his own aptitude for marketing to grow the FECR name. Building upon their cowherd of midframed, good-uddered, structurally sound and docile Hereford females, they sell cattle that are hardy, goodfooted, have fleshing ability and bred for longevity. Daniel will be the first to tell you that the success of FECR is not about certain cow families or bull purchases, it’s about making good mating decisions and doing the research to balance genetics, phenotype and EPDs.

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

At the ranch full time are Keith, Daniel, Weston, hired man Jason May and seasonal part time help. They work together to handle the day-today activities -- feeding, haying, crop farming, calving, working cattle in the pasture and the show barn. But, like everything at FECR, it’s a team effort to get everything accomplished. Anyone and everyone will jump in when they are at the ranch and it’s not unusual to see a hodgepodge of adults, kids, dogs and a variety of ranch vehicles and/or horses chute side working cattle.

“Each family members brings something special to this place and work tirelessly year-round. I honestly don’t know how they get it all done, but they do, and they do it with pride for this ranch,” she says. “Each generation is proud of the one before and give it their all to keep things moving forward. The Fawcetts are humble about what they have and simply some of the most amazing people I’ve ever met.”

“We don’t follow trends; we know our cows and our environment. We study the bloodlines and look at genetics to try to make the next generation better. The bulls we purchase are done so with purpose, to invest in our cow herd,” he says. Both artificial insemination and embryo transplant are used extensively at the ranch. This allows for large sire group representation and contemporary data to be used in their sales.

As Daniel says, “the proof is in the pudding.”

the top seller at the Mile High Sale in Denver that year and sold for more than $38,000.

Additionally, Keith served on the American Hereford Association Board of Directors from 2010 – 2014. He says he saw the passion from the people active in the breed and wanted to represent them and their operations on a national scale.

The first FECR Fall Female Sale was held in 2018. A 2019 sale is planned for the first Saturday in October, where they will sell around 40 females including show heifers, bred heifers and donor cows. Additionally, fall born females as well as rare semen and embryos sell online.

FECR first sold bulls privately off the ranch, at local events such as the Black Hills Stock Show, Watertown Winter Farm Show and later the National Western Stock Show. One of the ranch’s first big sales was in 2010. ECR L18 Extra Deep 9279 “Bob” was

After the first sale in 2012, FECR now hosts a bull sale yearly at the ranch on the second Monday of February, where they sell more than 100 bulls and groups of replacement females. Both yearling and two-year-old bulls are sold.

Junior livestock events were a big part of each Fawcett’s childhood. Now their own kids are showing and they sell several show heifers every year. Daniel believes that there is no better program for youngsters to be involved

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

Typical bull customers are commercial cattlemen, interested in breeding Hereford bulls to black females. The Fawcetts can count on sale barn toppers sired by FECR bulls, word of mouth and print advertising to reach customers locally and across the country.

FECR has earned several honors from the South Dakota Hereford Association (SDHA) including Commercial Producer of the Year in 2010, Seedstock Producer of the Year in 2017 and Daniel was named Hereford Enthusiast of the Year in 2014. Keith and Cheryl served as the SDHA Jr. Advisors from 1994 – 2004 and helped organize the 2002 National Jr. Hereford Expo in Sioux Falls, S.D.

He says junior associations give kids an undeniable advantage when compared to their peers in the long run by growing their work ethic, dedication and passion towards whatever they may be doing. “Selling show heifers to juniors is one of the most stressful things for me, because it is extremely important that these females meet the demands of the industry in the show ring but more importantly be profitable momma cows after the show halter is taken off,” he says. “My goal is for these juniors to see success in the show ring, and for them to seize the opportunity to travel with their family. These are all memory-making occasions.” “After the cattle are done in the show ring, I do everything I can to help guide our customers to make the right mating decisions so that they are profitable. FECR will even help them sell their offspring,” Daniel says.

some of their favorite memories. Kristin always wanted to return to the ranch. Now, she and husband Weston have built their home at FECR. “I always dreamt of the day that I would marry a man and bring him back to FECR to work with my family. I wanted to raise my kids the same way that I was raised – learning the hardships of ranching, the meaning of hard work and the benefit of living close to other family members,” Kristin says. “I enjoy watching sunrises and sunsets from the pastures or fields, and love that I can take walks to soak up ‘God’s country.’” Erin says that she now comes home to do for fun what she used to call work. “I share my experiences of growing up at FECR with everyone, and I’m always eager to invite them to visit and see what I call ‘my favorite place on Earth,’” she says. And the family agrees, the goals for the ranch are to continue moving in the right direction with a common sense directive.

“I see stable growth, and quality growth for FECR in the next 10 to 30 years, like we’ve done since the beginning,” says Keith. “The ranch has seen 110 years and six generations, why can’t it see 140 years and seven or eight generations?” “We want to be the source for the commercial producer to find the genetic needs of their cowherd to optimize their investments to the fullest,” Daniel says. “It’s our goal to continue to not get caught up in trends, but instead be the operation setting the trends with the right type and kind of cattle.” Now as tradition says, it’s time for the next generation to enjoy their time in the Ree Hills. Just as their parents did when they were growing up, the Fawcett grandchildren will enjoy the change of seasons through long calving seasons, summer heat, weaning and hard winters. They will get dirty; they will learn responsibility by caring for the land and the cattle; they will learn humility in and out of the show ring and they will learn to be kind and hospitable toward their neighbors and their peers. •

m Jenna Tlach, I’m 16-years-old and I live in central Iowa, just south of Des Moines. I’m going to be a junior at Indianola High School. I’m involved in FFA at school and outside of school, I am heavily involved in my 4H club which I am the president of, Iowa Junior Beef Breeds Association and the Iowa Junior Maine-Anjou Association where I am the secretary. Throughout all of these wonderful organizations and commitments, I have been able to keep in close contact with the ag industry.

268

I live on my family’s farm with my mom, Amy, my dad, Barry and my sister, Abby. On our farm, we have about 80 head of cows that are primarily Maine-Anjou. Our herd also consists of a lot of previous show heifers that my sister and I have shown through the past several years. We have a goal in mind to produce better offspring year after year to put

in our annual steer and heifer sale we host each fall. My family works together in the barn with daily chores, hair care, feeding and getting ready for shows. We take pride in the fact that we make a great team and are able to work together to accomplish our goals. We have always set out to do incrementally better at each show than the last one that we went to. Small steps and hard work have allowed us to learn something new and improve in some way each time that we go to a show. Everyday when walking into the barn, my sister and I are constantly reminded as to why we do what we do. Each of us have our own whiteboard where we write inspirational quotes that stick out to each of us and push us to do better. One of my favorite quotes I saw when I first began showing is “Be so good they can’t ignore you”. It has stuck with me ever since and is truly one

of the biggest motivators I have. This pushes me every day to get things done right and keep working towards my goals in and out of the showring.

With only one day in between these shows, my whole family couldn’t make the trip to Texas for the week. We had to divide and conquer to get things done to be able to make it work to go to both Junior Nationals. With the help of my grandparents and the Coudron/Schwecke crew, I was able

Maine-Anjou and Chianina Junior Nationals are one of my family’s favorite weeks of the whole summer, but after being away for a two week period of time, I was ready to be home. I was super tired but after being named Supreme Champion Owned Chianina Female with my heifer, Alice, I forgot I was even tired! Little did I know that I would have the unbelievable outcome that I did at each of those shows! I had the privilege of exhibiting the Supreme Champion Owned Charolais Female and Supreme Champion Owned Chianina Female. Thank you to all of those who have been my cheerleaders throughout my

showing career including my parents and my sister. Abby, you’ve been one of my biggest competitors since we started, but it’s made me a better person as well as a better older sister. Mom and Dad, thanks for supporting me in anything I want to endure, you guys are my rocks. Grandma and Grandpa, thanks for taking me to Texas and always being there for the littlest things. Schweckes, Thank you for letting me tag along on the trip. Being able to show Phyllis was a complete dream! Boyerts and Cores, you all have been there for me since day one of my showing career and I can’t say thank you enough for that. Willie Weis and crew, thanks for always pushing Abby and I to do the best we can and always being there for us on show day! •

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

This summer, my sister and I began with nine heifers in the cooler as well as five show pigs. I knew for a fact this was going to be a rewarding summer for all of us, especially since I was planning to attend Charolais Junior Nationals in Fort Worth, TX., something I had never done, and Maine and Chianina Junior Nationals in Des Moines, IA. The biggest obstacle to overcome was the fact that these two shows were on back to back weeks this summer.

to make the trip with my Charolais heifer, Phyllis. Less that 24 hours after exhibiting Phyllis, the Champion Owned Purebred Charolais Female, I was back in Iowa helping prepare our heifers for Maine-Anjou and Chianina Junior Nationals.

i, my name is Victoria Chapman from Ardmore, Oklahoma. I am 21 years old and my parents are Eric and Tracie Chapman. I am currently a senior at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Oklahoma majoring in Agricultural Business Pre-Law with a minor in Legal Studies. I will graduate in May of 2020 and purse a career in the agricultural industry creating relationships between producers and consumers. My parents, siblings, Fred and Erica Chapman, and I own and operate a commercial cow-calf and stocker operation in Southern Oklahoma. I also own and operate my own registered Hereford operation alongside, Jirl Buck. From a young age, getting up before dawn to saddle my horse alongside my dad to gather another group of cattle then to find myself back at the barn walking my sheep at night with my mom is a glimpse of what my

schedule every day of each summer consisted of. As showing sheep was a large part of creating my foundation of dedication and hard work that it takes to be successful in and out of the showring, it was not where I fell in love with the industry. Least to say, those summer days quickly changed from gathering cattle in a pasture and walking sheep to leading show heifers into the cooler. If you were to walk through my cow herd, you will come across a few more colors than just red and white Herefords. Those cows represent my background and my initial start in the showring. Josh Tolbert will always remain a great family friend and those cows purchased from him influenced where I am today. In 2013, my brother and I purchased my first Hereford heifer from Buck Cattle Company, her name was “Rachel”. At that time, I thought I had just purchased a nice heifer, what I didn’t know was that I was about to become part of a group

of people who would help me achieve some my greatest achievements and be present for those moments in life over the next 7 years. Each showman within their show careers will have that one show heifer that changes the game for them, mine was “Rachel”. I attended my first Hereford Jr. Nationals Expo in Kansas City --- her first show. It was as if I walked into the show ring for the first time all over again. I found love for the intensity and the power you have at the end of the halter. I recall that Jr. Nationals standing ringside watching different showman and finding my mentors. Hereford legends such as Melissa Grimmel Shaake, Brooke Jenson, and Bailey Buck made a tremendous impression on me and I quickly began to mimic their skills- not only in the showring, but in the show barn as well.

The bitter sweetness of walking into the showring for the last time as a junior floods you with emotions filled with love, memories, and the one last time that your fans sit in the stands and your crew stands behind you. This final time ended with an ending unimaginable for myself and my family. My favorite days consisted of days and nights spent in the barn doing chores – brushing with rice brushes till our hands hurt, catching frogs, foot races, playing T-Swift on the speaker, going to see the new baby calves, and several other countless memories. Jirl, you will never know (until you read this) that I am more thankful for the times you were there right beside me every time before I went into the showring, our eye contact that always made you worry that I was upset was my way of finding comfort before I went into the ring. Thank you for always building my confidence up in the showring and convincing me I knew what I was doing and that I could figure it out. Without each and every one of you

that I have met or came in contact with throughout the years, there is no way my success would be in existence. Matt, Davey, Ace, Ethan, Jeremy, Brett, Craig, Little Bob, Preston, Brenda, Lacey, Andrea, etc; at one point or another, you either filled a role of one of my parents, fixed my hair, bought me food, held my halter, broke my calf down or any of the other several duties that it takes to get me to and from the ring. Overall thank you for all of your support and pushing me forward. I was told you are who you surround yourself with – I’m confident these people collectively have helped me better myself and I’m so thankful for each of you. Finally – to my parents. I am so incredible proud to call you that. These two have been through every experience, good or bad. I struggle to put into words of how thankful I am that you gave me the opportunity to be involved within this industry and you taught me to be a strong women. The things I have learned along the way from both of you are second to none and will never be forgotten. The showring will always hold a special place in my heart, yet watching the next generation of Hereford producers learn the importance of why we do all of this is why I truly love what this industry is about. •

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

As a family our motto is “a goal is never too large but only if you’re willing to put in the work it takes to achieve it”. In March of 2014, I achieved a goal I thought was never possible. I won the World’s Largest Junior Livestock Show - Oklahoma Youth Expo with the first Hereford to win Grand Champion in the owned show. That following summer, I achieved the first goal I set for myself many years ago. This goal was to win a showmanship contest, “Rachel” and I achieved that win in the Intermediate Showmanship

contest at the following Jr. Nationals in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. I achieved those goals not only because of the hard work but the people that invested their time in me. “Rachel” taught me more than just how to achieve my goals – she taught me about life, the value of hard work, and what dedication and perseverance can accomplish.

y name is Paige Lemenager I am 15 years old and I am an Angus and Hereford breeder. My parents are Luke and Stacy Lemenager, we live on a grain and cattle farm in Hudson, Illinois where we own and operate Lemenager Cattle along with my uncle, Chuck Lemenager and his family.

I am a director in the Illinois Junior Hereford Association and an officer of the Illinois Junior Angus Association. Along with showing cattle I have grown to love livestock judging by representing my FFA chapter and tri-county 4-H team. Outside of the show ring, I am active in student council, FFA, and 4-H. My love for the Hereford breed sparked in 2016 with my first Hereford heifer who gave me some of the most bittersweet moments in my show career. Since then I have met my dearest friends from coast to coast. Until this year, I had only ever shown heifers and bulls, and this year was my first time exhibiting a steer of any breed. I named my steer Denver,

with one goal in mind which was to show him on the hill at JNHE. We knew because of the length of the trip and with Angus junior nationals the following week that the decision of traveling could not be taken lightly. For two nights in a row my parents drove through the night and we laid over at a ranch in Nebraska. We bought the steer through Dillon Brock, and Geoff Andras who played a crucial role in Denverâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;s trip to the hill along with assembling the talented team of fitters for show day. I am thankful to have had the opportunity to work on Denver alongside Dillon who put his faith in us this year. Being in the Denver Stockyards one last time and showing my first Hereford steer made for one of the most memorable experiences of my life. My parents have surrounded me with the most talented and kind hearted people there are in our industry and I am grateful for the support system that I have. â&#x20AC;˘

CAGNEY

EFFLING ey everybody! My name is Cagney Effling and I am 20 years old from Highmore, South Dakota. My sisters and I join my parents in raising purebred Charolais, Simmental, and Hereford cattle. We market our genetics through our private treaty sale, production sale, multiple online sales, and consignment sales. My sisters double up show rings by picking up a whip and using it to drive hogs, but our true love is with our show cattle. I speak for my sisters and myself when I say that ever since we owned our first heifer, we were determined to build our own herd. Any and all success that my family has experienced within this industry is because we do it as a family. Once we began showing, it was a silent vow that we would always be in it together. There has never been an I or me; always we. This summer has been a first for me, as I have been interning for Kansas Department of Agriculture. For the first time in twenty years, I am not at home in the show barn for the summer. The roles that my sisters have stepped up and taken are admirable. Additionally, I am so incredibly grateful for my parents for letting me continue to do what I love. This past year has been incredible, having found success with cattle that I raised. Raising the National Champion Charolais Bull at the American Royal and having Grand Champion and 4th Overall Bred &

Owned Female and Reserve Champion Bull at this summer’s Charolais Junior National has been years in the making. I want to extend my sincerest thank you to the Thomas family including Troy, VeaBea, and Cally. The time, hard work, and love that they have not only invested into the Charolais breed, but also to my own junior career, will not soon be forgotten. Village, Army, Crew, Friends, Family; call them what you may, but I have been blessed with an outstanding group of people who have been by my side for a long time. To start, my Grandpa Lanny and Grandma Jayne have supported me in all that I do for as long as I can remember, including letting me run some of my white cows with their black cows. Luke Doris, Werdel Boys, and Cade Wurts: thank you so much for holding down the fort while we’re running around the country. Hunter Aggen of Shipwreck Cattle Company and Kaylee Kuykendyll of Jackson Cattle Company: it means the world to me to have friends who were willing to help get my cattle ready for Junior Nationals and I cannot thank you enough. This life that we all live in the show industry is without a doubt a crazy one. Like anyone else, winning a show of the caliber of a Junior Nationals has always been my dream. The years of breeding decisions, days in the show barn, and hours in the vehicle all seem to count for something. Regardless of my wins this summer, I know that the people and memories make it all worthwhile. •

Charolais cattle have always been part of the family business. Showing Charolais just seemed to go hand in hand with raising quality bulls and cows for commercial, and purebred Breeder’s alike. Collin Greer {Camille and Carter’s dad} began showing as soon as he was 9 years old, as did his sister, Kristen Greer Clark. Their father, James Greer, served as a Texas A&M Agricultural Extension Agent for Shelby County for over 20 years, building quite a large 4-H youth program, allowing him to also take the kids to and from shows. It was James who was most excited to see Camille hit the show ring for

the first time with a Greer Charolais Bred and Owned Female. In Camille’s first year of showing, she had Roxy {Rocky’s dam}. Roxy was a powerful, smooth made, maternal heifer. A few times she was dinged for being too powerful; however, she went on to when several titles at jackpots and brought home a Class Win at the San Antonio junior show. Roxy calved with her first bull calf, and Camille wanted to try her hand at showing a cow/calf pair. At the Texas Junior Charolais Show in Salado, Texas in June of 2016 Camille won Reserve overall with her heifer GC Miss Sophie 608 P and captured another Class Win with Roxy and her calf, Roscoe, while grandpa James watched on smiling. Jr Nationals in Grand Island, NE was up next. The pair took home another Class Win, ending Camille’s 2015-2016 show season on a high note. In the summer of 2017, James died unexpectedly, leaving behind Greer Charolais. •

J U N I O R

y name is Abby Burkhart. I am 18 years old and I recently graduated from Boyer Valley High School in Dunlap, Iowa. This fall I am attending Iowa State University and majoring in Animal Science where I hope to eventually become a Veterinarian. I have always been an animal lover but did not start my show career until my family moved to Dunlap when my dad started working with John and Dede Sullivan at Sullivan Supply. The move was a new experience for our entire family, but it has turned out to be one of the most rewarding opportunities for me personally.

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

I dove into the show world head first and it has created so many amazing memories. My family has always been involved in the agricultural world. My mom’s family has a deep farming and commercial cattle background on her side and my dad grew up showing cattle. They both encouraged me to show,

but my dad pushed me a little harder to fully embrace all that it has to offer. My first ever Junior Nationals was the 2016 Shorthorn Junior Nationals in St. Paul, Minnesota. I brought two small heifer calves and wasn’t really sure what I was doing at such a big event. I was really nervous but jumped into all the events I could. Over the next few years I learned many new skills and have grown as a person. I have also been fortunate enough to have found success with my cattle. This most recent Shorthorn Junior Nationals was a major change from my first Junior Nationals. I was extremely fortunate to have won Grand Champion Shorthorn Plus Female. I was very proud of what I had accomplished, but that wasn’t all. At this year’s Junior Nationals, I placed fourth overall in Senior Showmanship and in the Senior Division of the team fitting contest. These were great personal accomplishments, not only because it showed me

just how much I have grown from my first Junior Nationals, but also the true honor it was to be out there with some of the best show men and women in the Shorthorn Breed. As I was heading into the finals in Showmanship, I was visibly nervous. Kane Aegerter leaned over to me and said to relax, have fun, and that he was there to help with anything I needed. That is what this industry is all about. Great people who are always willing to help even when you are heading into the ring to compete with each other. It just doesn’t get any better than that. I can’t explain enough how grateful I am for the experiences I have made through this industry and I hope to make many more into my future. This industry is full of many wonderful people and opportunities that are worth a lifetime. I would not be where I am today without the support of the people around me. I want to thank my parents for encouraging me, as well as Nate Tice, Nick Zastrow, Chad Obrecht, Lenny Bolin and Josh Elder for guiding and helping me along the way. I also want to thank John, Dede and Sara Sullivan for welcoming my family and I into the show world. I look forward to meeting many more of you in the future. •

HOMETOWN: Defiance, Ohio

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU SHOWN AT NJSS: This is my 4th Jr. National.

FAVORITE CONTEST AT JR. NATIONALS:

LOGAN

That one is hard, but I think the fitting contest. We won second place in the prospector division this year.

FAVORITE PART OF JR. NATIONAL:

My family and I have met so many people from all over the US by attending the junior nationals. Last year we met Eli Smallwood, Jaxson Dillard and Cole Whisman. This year we met Jordan Vanderburg, Mitchell Smith, Isaac Gehret, and Murray Perkins. The connections and friendships you make from all over the US at these shows are my favorite part of going to Jr. Nationals.

WHO HAS INSPIRED YOU THE MOST IN YOUR SHOWING CAREER:

I am so fortunate to have a lot of people I look up to. I grew up watching Ashley Peter showing. I’ve tried to do everything like she has done, all my showmanship skills comes from watching her. Kathy Lehman has taught me to keep pushing and never ever give up on something you believe in (even when it’s a crazy heifer). The Winegardner/Klingamen entire crew has taught me how to work hard and that if you work hard you get to play big.

MOST MEMORABLE MOMENT AT A NJSS: It would have to be winning the steer show this year - that was pretty awesome.

FAVORITE QUOTE OR MESSAGE FOR JUNIORS.:

(I have two) Follow your Passion, be Prepared to Work Hard and Sacrifice, and above all don’t let anyone limit your Dreams. - Donovan Bailey Practice like you’ve never won and perform like you’ve never lost.

FUTURE GOALS:

Goal #1 is to find a calf better than I one I had this year. I also want to attend a college where I can be on a judging team and study Agriculture. My dream would be to judge at a NJSS someday. •

FLASHBACK

THE SCHNEIDER FAMILY DOMINATED THE COLORADO STATE FAIR IN THE 1980s AND 1990s. WE LOOK BACK AT THEIR INCREDIBLE RUN!

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

Ryan and Darick Schneider

496

Exercising their Steers

1995 Colorado State Fair Grand Champion Steer Darick Schneider

ome families travel to Hawaii, Puerto Vallarta or the Caribbean. Not so with the Schneider family; they routinely cover thousands of miles between Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Texas. They have spent around 330 hours in the cab of their 4-door “Cow Limo,” traveling as one happy family. On the road again...

In 1989, Ryan and Darick exhibited at over twenty-two shows and brought home eighteen Grand Champions and nine Reserve Grand Champions. A friendly rivalry has sprung up between the two; ask Darick which was his favorite show, and he’ll reply, “The ones in which I beat my big brother Ryan.”

The boys are following a family tradition, as their father used to show steers and heifers, and they’re into it heart and soul. Donna thinks her husband is living his second boyhood through the boys and their cattle; he loves every minute of it, though they keep him hoping. She has wound up in the role of tail lady, though Ryan says she doesn’t enjoy cleaning out the stalls. Donna does enjoy going to the livestock shows and sharing in her sons’ many successes.

Darick is wrapping up his first year with 4-H, an exceptionally good one due in part to the help his older brother has provided. He has shown six Grand Champions, one at his county fair, and two Reserve Grand Champions. Darick thinks 4-H is a good deal of work, especially in order to win, and realizes that his animals depend on him and his efforts. Going to the shows is fun, but the work at home must be done first. Right now Darick is getting the dirt chores such as feeding a stall

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

Ryan and Darick Schneider, sons of Sonny and Donna Schneider, live outside Eaton, Colorado on a family farm that has been operating since 1928. Sonny and Donna operate a commercial cattle feeding venture and also a small livestock trucking business.

Ryan has been active in 4-H for six years, and recently set a Colorado State Fair record exhibiting the Champion Steer three times and consecutively in the last two years. He’s also shown the Reserve Grand Champion one year. His all-time favorite show was the Yamaha 89. There he won three four-wheelers with two steers in one weekend. He thought it was a really sweet weekend.

cleanup. He’s more relaxed than older brother Ryan and doesn’t like to glance over at Dad for criticism. But he loves the showing and meeting new friends; where once he used to goof off and enjoy the carnival rides, now he has responsibilities just like Ryan’s. To Ryan, 4-H is to be an asset to his future because he wants to be a fitter like Kirk Stierwalt. He attributes their success in the show ring to Kirk and Julie Stierwalt’s generosity and time; both brothers have attended many of their clinics and reaped rewards in confidence and professional showmanship. Through 4-H, he and Darick have learned to finance and take good care of their small herd, and keep better records too. They feel closer to their compadres at 4-H than their friends at school; offspring from their cattle are usually sold to 4-H buddies for projects. 4-H has also provided opportunities for Ryan to get involved with livestock judging, this enables him to pick out his own animals and to refine his public speaking technique. A freshman at Eaton High School, Ryan likes to play football in his spare time. This is very limited, thought, because he recently enrolled in the FFA program and puts most of his time and work into his steers. Darick is a fourth-grader at Galeton Elementary, and plays baseball and basketball. Soon, however, his involvement with his livestock may overtake school athletics, just as Ryan’s did.

1989 Colorado State Fair Grand Champion Steer Ryan Schneider

The winning is wonderful, but Ryan and Darick Schneider enjoy their friends and experiences in the show ring more. A promising start for two brothers involved in the livestock business; their dedication and hard work are an inspiration to everyone who comes into contact with them. Ryan and Darick are prime examples of how much our youth can achieve through the support of their families and friends. They would like to thank all of their 4-H and FFA leaders and friends, including Shannon McLain. These young people are the best possible proof of the success of FFA and 4-H programs. Learning responsibility and dedication will prepare them for a future in whatever field they choose. • Originally ran as the March 1990 Purple Circle Junior Spotlight feature. Story and photos shared by Sonny Schneider.

The above article was from early 1990. Ryan and Darick would continue to win in Pueblo through the mid 1990s. It all started in 1984 when Ryan Schneider started showing at the Colorado State Fair. That year he had a 2nd place steer. He would return in 1985 and win Grand Champion with a steer they raised. By 1988 Darick began showing. Ryan had Grand Champion Steer at the 1988 Colorado State Fair with his steer named Special K. Judge John Edwards selected 14 year old Ryan’s 1,250lb. Maine/Cross steer that year. Special K sold for $25,000 in the Junior Livestock Sale in Pueblo. He purchased the steer from the Kammerzel Brothers in Milliken. In fact, that steer showed in 6 different states and won Grand or Reserve in 16 out

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

of 17 show rings! In 1989 Ryan had the Grand Champion Steer again! His 1,250lb. steer named Stomper sold for $22,500. Ryan would also win the 1991 Colorado State Fair with a 1,258 pound steer under judge Chris Skaggs. By 1993 his brother Darick had the Grand Champion Steer with a red 1,270 pound Limousin/Maine-Anjou named Cheddar that he purchased in Oklahoma. He brought $21,000. In fact, Ryan had Reserve Champion Steer that year making it the only time two brothers had Grand and Reserve in the same year! There were 141 head of steers shown in 1993. According to the Tribune newspaper back then, “Although this is Scheider’s first Grand Champion at the fair, his brother Ryan has had great success there winning four Grand Champions and three Reserve Champions during the 1980s.” Ryan added his fourth Reserve in 1993. Darrick would go on to win Grand Champion Steer in 1994 and 1995 as well making it the only three-peat in the 124 year history at the time. That record still holds today. His 1994 Grand Champion was a 1,250lb. calf named Olly. Judge Dan Hoge called him “a unique combination of problem-free cattle... truly a

500

class all by himself.” 161 steers from 35 counties showed in Pueblo that year. Hoge went on to say “You’ve got as good a set of steers as you see at a state fair. From top to bottom, I couldn’t be more pleased. Not one young person left this show ring that I didn’t talk to. Not one young person left this ring that I didn’t say something positive about.” Darick’s 1995 Grand Champion, Red Dog sold for $15,000 in the Junior Livestock Sale. Talking with their dad Sonny Schneider on the phone about their multiple Grands and Reserves in Pueblo was a lot fun. He said that after winning with a home raised steer in 1985, they purchased steers from Kirk Stierwalt and Phil Lautner. Some of the judges they showed under were Dan Hoge, Kenny Geuns, Harlan Ritchie, Chris Skaggs, Lynn Holly, Jerome Settles, Clint Rusk, Bob Crop and John Edwards. Ryan showed from 1984 - 1993 and Darick showed from 1988 - 1998. In addition to the Colorado State Fair, their family won Calgary, Louisville and San Fransisco. They also won the Weld County Fair numerous times. •

HISTORY

After four years of territorial fairs, the first Minnesota State Fair was held in 1859 near what became downtown Minneapolis. This was a year after Minnesota was granted statehood. During the fairâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s early years, the site of the exposition changed annually with stops in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Rochester, Red Wing, Winona and Owatonna. In the 1870s and early 1880s, civic groups from both St. Paul and Minneapolis worked relentlessly to provide a

permanent home for the fair in their respective cities. In 1885, the Minnesota State Fair finally found a permanent home at its present location, mid-way between Minneapolis and St. Paul. Since its inception, the fair has been held every year with only five exceptions: in 1861 and 1862 due to the Civil War and Dakota Indian Conflict, in 1893 because of scheduling conflicts with the Worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Columbian Exposition in Chicago, in 1945 due to war-time fuel shortages, and in 1946 due to a polio epidemic.

TAR SHARES HIS STORY!

528

WORK HARD IN SILENCE, LET SUCCESS MAKE THE NOISE! past 6 years and have been fortunate enough to travel as an alternate to Louisville and as a team member to Denver 2019. There are a couple of families that stand out to me that have helped me get to where I am today. The Purfeerst Family, the Purfeerst got me started in the livestock industry and have played an immense roll in my judging career as both Mark and Matt served as my awesome judging coaches. Thank you, Jim and Deb, Mark and Jamie, Matt, Leo and Ivy! The second family is the Lind Family. I first met the Lind family at the Minnesota State fair 6 years ago. When I say that friends turn into family, I literally mean that. Doug Lind and his wife Becky Lind have 8 kids and took me into their arms without any hesitation and I could not be more grateful and blessed. They are a well-known family in Minnesota, and I have been very fortunate to be involved with their many successes within the Hereford and Red Angus Breeds. I would not be where I am today without the help of the Lind family, so thank you, Doug and Becky, Colby and Tracy, Chellsey and Nate, Lakyn, Danielle, Kjersta, Hans, Jens, Tate, and Channing and Cora! To young exhibitors out there, please remember to always thank anyone that has always supported you in everything and has gotten you to where you are today, and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget WORK HARD IN SILENCE, LET SUCCESS MAKE THE NOISE! Thank you from the bottom of my heart Reid family, this is truly something I have always wanted to write about and share with as many people have always wondered how I first got my start in the greatest industry in the world! â&#x20AC;˘

i, my name is Tar Tut from Faribault, Minnesota. I have been exhibiting cattle at the Minnesota state fair for the past 6 years. I first got involved in the livestock industry at the age of 11 when a family in my town (Purfeerst) invited me to their farm and showed me the ins and outs of farming and what truly goes in behind the scenes. While there, they also showed me their cattle and told me that they show Angus cattle competitively across the country, and to me that was the coolest thing ever. Fast forward another year they reached out to me and asked if I would be interested in showing a heifer at the MN Beef Expo, to say I was ecstatic would be an understatement. This would have been my very first show and I competed in showmanship. I was so eager to get more involved I asked if I could show at the local county fair, they said yes and, in the spring, they let me pick out a heifer to show and my summer project began. County Fair rolled around and I won a trip to The Great Minnesota Get Together (Minnesota State Fair), I was very excited because I had never been to the state fair and I had heard many great things, like how much fun you have, the many new friends you meet, that will in my case turn into family, and the countless memories you make. I also have been part of the GLJ team in my county for the

THE MURPHYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S HISTORY AT THE STATE FAIR! for this show. He showed there for the next 6 years and every year was more competitive and exciting. The night before the steer show in 1996 he proposed to his future wife and we have attended every year to watch and observe the show days. Every year we would celebrate his birthday during the State Fair. In 2007 we brought our son into the world with great expectations to introduce him to the show world. Every year we would bring him the steer shows and he took quite a interest. We are the Murphy Family from Seneca, Il.

His first year at the state fair was in 1984 and was a large learning experience. This took a lot of prepping, planning and discipline to get ready

In 2018 we returned with our crossbreed steer named Richard. After a lot of work and training

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

The Illinois State Fair has been a apart of our family for a long time. Mike started showing steers and heifers when he was 12 year old. He looked forward to going back every year to see old friends and make new ones. The other amazing attraction was always the Famous Butter Cow that was on display.

In 2016, at the age of 9 our son entered his first crossbreed named Diesel and a shorthorn named Thug. He was nervous and excited at the same time. Still learning the ropes, we returned the next year in 2017 with 2 crossbreed steers named Radar and Ted. Along with knowledge and skill, he walked away with Reserve Grand Champion Overall. This was very exciting and rewarding. His passion was growing strong in our 10 year olds world.

533

ILLINOIS

he gained the title of Reserve Grand Champion again. This to an 11 year old and only the third season showing was an incredible experience. The most amazing part of our sons life is having such great success at the age of 12 winning Reserve Grand Champion Overall 2 straight years in a row at the Illinois State Fair. Of course, none of this would be possible without the support of our families and our Team B.

The State Fair gives our youth the opportunity to come forth in showing, gain responsibility, work ethic with chores and respect for others. The memories we have shared makes that time of year priceless to us. â&#x20AC;˘

BETH SHARES HER FAMILIES STORY!

538

IOWA

have attended the Iowa State Fair (ISF) since I was a little girl. I was involved in 4H from the time I was in 3rd grade, but was never able to show livestock at the state fair level. I enjoyed being a spectator and helping friends who did attend. I stayed active in 4H by volunteering and later becoming a leader. In 1990 I was asked if I would consider announcing the 4H Breeding and Market cattle show, and I figured I would give it a try. This year will mark my 29th year of announcing – who wouldn’t love this job? It is the best seat in the house! I have mispronounced my share of names and counties, and even cried during special moments while announcing.

Dexter exhibited the Champion Shorthorn Plus steer in 2008 & was part of the Champion Drive. In 2012 Walker exhibited the Champion Governor’s Charity Steer & was honored to show “Simba” with Mike & Betsy in memory of their father Mark Pearson. When they entered the pavilion there was a standing ovation in his memory- an unbelievable sight and feeling. Also in 2012, Morgan exhibited the Champion Maine Anjou steer & received 5th Overall Honorable mention under the great Jimmy Williams. Morgan will never forget the following year when she was in the ring and he had remembered her and Jimmy said “Baby sister, nice to see you again.” In 2015, our families first year exhibiting pigs, Walker showed the Champion Heavy Weight Market hog in FFA. In 2016, Morgan and “Miss Kitty” her FFA Breeding gilt were named the Reserve Overall FFA Breeding Gilt, where she then got to sell in the Blue & Gold Sale.

Our best memories seem to all be related to livestock, but through all of these great experiences it is still the friends we have met & stay in touch with that have meant the most. Hence why I have cried while announcing the names of several kids that I have watched grow up. Traditions we try to do include, trying some of the new fair foods, spending the last weekend just walking around as a family, and riding the “Ye Old Mill” along with the “Giant Slide”, which I remember going down at 50 cents a time & it is now $2.50. Other changes would of course be the snap chats of the ISF, the food finder app, and the one thing that has never changed is the Iowa Public Televisions (IPTV) coverage of the Iowa State Fair! I can’t wait to see what the future holds for my family at the Iowa State Fair, but I know it will continue to include livestock, 4-H, FFA, meeting new friends, catching up with old friends & making memories with my kids! •

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

I have 3 children and a daughter-inlaw; Dexter 25, Morgan 20, Walker 18, and Dexter’s wife, Ashley. I have been pregnant with all 3 while announcing and I am pretty sure none of them have missed a State Fair since. All 3

kids have been involved in 4H and FFA, and have all exhibited at the Iowa State Fair.

LOOKING BACK AT THEIR TIME AT THE STATE FAIR!

or the last 30 years the Farmer Family has attended one of the most competitive State Fairs in the nation, the Indiana State Fair. Whether it was Jason exhibiting, Shannon and Jason assisting customers, or for the last 9 years Payton exhibiting cattle. Over the years we have been fortunate to have sold a Supreme Champion Female along with two other Reserve Supreme Females. In 2011 Payton exhibited the Reserve Supreme Female with her Hereford heifer known as “Lulu”. Little did we know at the time Lulu would become the cornerstone to Payton’s Hereford program. With this 2019, being Payton’s last state fair she has had a great run, winning each Junior, Intermediate, and Senior divisions of Beef showman along with Reserve Supreme showman of all species. Also, in that time she has exhibited the Champion or Reserve Hereford female 8 of her 9 years. The last two years she has had two breeds in the Champion Drive. With all that being said, the ISF means much

more to our family than the trophies and banners we have gathered. We think of the Indiana State Fair as our family's end of summer vacation. It marks the end of our summer schedule. It is the cumulation of all the countless hours, during the summer spent together in the barn rinsing, brushing, blowing, and sometimes even the occasional disagreements, together in the show barn. It is the four days that we get to spend with all of our friends before Payton has had to return to school and our summer schedule comes to an end. Through the last 9 years that Payton has been exhibiting cattle, our family has made countless memories that remain with us for the rest of our lives. From the first time Payton made it to the Champion drive in the Coliseum with Phil Deckard announcing her bio as she entered the ring, to Payton and Jason sitting in line overnight to get stalls, to sharing a bucket of deep fried vegetables as a family. The Indiana State Fair will forever hold a special place in our hearts as we sit back and reminisce about our family’s experiences years from now. •

The first official Kansas State Fair was held September 13-20, 1913. Although fair gatherings and events began taking root back in January of 1873 when the prairie town of Hutchinson was barely one year old. On September 23-24 that year, the society hosted a fair which was held in a small wooden livery stable behind the town’s only bank on the nortwest corner of Sherman and Main.

HISTORY

Since the first Fair in 1901, thousands of Missouri families have made the annual “pilgrimage” to Sedalia. Despite numerous differences, the Fair exhibitors of 1901 and today share an important common element. That common denominator is competition – the desire to put your efforts against your neighbor’s best.

STATE FAIR PREVIEW

Since the first State Fair, the reward has been ribbons, premium money and recognition. But the long-term effect of this healthy competition has been a steady improvement in Missouri’s agriculture, agribusiness, domestic arts and, today, even fine arts.

From 1901 to today, the Missouri State Fair has been a barometer of the state’s economic health and a documentary of the history of Missouri agriculture. The Missouri State Fair plays an essential role in keeping agriculture one of Missouri’s top industries. Missourians agree that as long as agriculture remains a major industry in the state, the Fair will continue to be the premier showcase for it. The Missouri State Fair is the number one site for major competitions highlighting the best of the best in the great Show-Me State of Missouri.

ick Schultz Show Cattle is first and foremost a family business. Taking off in 1985 with Rick competitively showing cattle and a few years later he got his high school sweetheart Jodi involved in the showing side. Rick was highly involved in 4-H and FFA with his main focus on the cattle industry. Rick and Jodi married in 1997 and began a family of their own and expanded the show cattle operation. Now they have three kids Isabelle, Reese and Natalia who all have shown and are currently showing. Rick also got Jodi’s brother, Derek Vogt involved in the operation early on before their kids were old enough to show. He is still a big part of the operation and has been a major part of not only helping our kids out but also the customers when he’s not on the road picturing. Currently they run a herd of 75 cows and have been blessed to have some big success the past several years. In fact 8 of the last 9 years, we’ve raised and sold a state fair or national champion/reserve champion. It’s been a fun run that has also included multiple county fair and prospect winners. Besides raising quality stock Rick has always been huge on showmanship. He was actually state fair champion in 4H and FFA in back to back years. We tell our customers that no matter what your budget is or what animal you end up with, it’s an even playing field in showmanship. Rick has an annual sale in the middle of September with the top 25 calves on there, and typically have one after that later in the

Not only have our customers had great success but we’ve been lucky enough to hang some banners ourselves. Last year we were able to cap off Isabelle’s final year with Champion Market heifer and Reserve Overall Market Beef. Isabelle had a lot of great years with many division and breed champions but it was great to hang the big one

Nebraska State fair has always been the top goal for us and to have had the success there has been a blessing. Now having it in almost our back yard and some of the greatest facilities in the country it couldn’t be a better event. •

or 33 years now, Campbellco, of Cedarville, Ohio, has raised highly competitive show cattle. Though the cattle have changed over the years, one thing has stayed the same: their commitment to the business and industry as a whole. Dave and Jody started their herd with the purchase of ‘HB Head On’ as their first bull. This white Chianina bull was the national champion white bull at North American in 1986. “I hope that’s the tallest cattle we will ever

OHIO

raise!” Dave shares. This early interest in the Chianina breed is still evident in their herd today (on a lot shorter scale). In 1988, Opie was born. Eighteen months later, Kayla joined the family on the same day that they collected promotional sire ‘Bad Medicine’ for the very first time. Owned with Beaverdale Farms, Bad Medicine became the cornerstone of the Campbell operation. As a young family, the Campbells began to breed and exhibit more and more champions in the heifer and steer ring. Their hard work and dedication showed, as they raised the Ohio State Fair Grand Champion steers in 1992

and 1994. Campbells consigned high caliber heifers in the “Show Girls” sale, an elite offering of its time. The family was founding members of the Holiday Classic Sale, as well as offered select packages in the Frozen Gold. Once Kayla and Opie joined 4-H, the breeding program shifted to raising and showing steers. Opie and Kayla racked up 3 reserve champion steers at the Ohio State Fair and countless jackpot winners. The kids traveled all across the Midwest from New York to Nebraska, showing nearly every weekend during the winter months. Opie and Kayla both were lucky enough to meet their future spouses while showing & exhibiting cattle.

Opie, general manager of the farm, has started a successful Simmental

herd of his own, in addition to the daily care of all the cattle in Cedarville. As Opie and his fiancé Hannah plan for their wedding, they are also preparing calves for show and sale this fall. Kayla has established her own professional livestock photography business where she travels the nation taking cattle photos. She and her husband Jon are building an Angus herd. The Campbells are also all involved in the family owned insurance agency, which has served the community since 1987. “You can’t make it in this business without the support of great people,” says Jody. “We have been fortunate to

have worked with and done business with some truly great cattlemen & women”. The Campbell family is also known for their hospitality. If you find yourself in western Ohio, stop in, sign the garage, and enjoy great cattle and company. •

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

The family remains deeply tied to the show cattle business to this day. Dave and Jody maintain a herd of 150 cows and continue to raise Chi, Maine, Sim-Angus, and Club Calf progeny. The Campbells currently have two promotional sires and numerous donors in their lineup. Their annual Derby Day sale in May has run for 5 years now. They are also proud to sell bred cows in the Season Finale sale each December as well as still maintaining their involvement in the Holiday Classic Sale also held in December.

FRIENDS, FAMILY AND LIVESTOCK SHOWS. BY: THE BERG FAMILY, SD

Fair experience. In the past 7 years, our family has had the opportunity to meet and reconnect with old and new friends. It is amazing all the show family it takes to exhibit livestock in a busy state fair schedule. Everyone pitches in where help is needed; especially when you are exhibiting multiple breeds in open shows, junior shows, FFA shows, and 4-H shows. The show industry creates work ethic and responsibilities from early morning rinses to late night kick outs. It is quite a sight to see after a long day of showing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; all of the youth breaking down on the wash rack, laughing and joking with each other, still having fun and making memories whatever the outcome of the day. It is great to get away from home and being able to be around and associate with so many successful and knowledgeable people during the week. It sure is gratifying to watch the

youth as they carry on the State Fair tradition. Memories Tate: He exhibiting the Grand Champion Steer in 2015 winning the 1st Nick Reimann Memorial Trailer. He enjoyed sharing the honor with his brother Trevor having Reserve Champion Steer. Trevor: Winning the 2018 Team Fitting Competition. Ty: Winning the 2016 Team Fitting Competition.

Our family consists of Ryan, Kim, Tate (16), Trevor (14), and Ty (13). Growing up as a 4-H family where the state fair tradition runs deep, the state fair is the culmination of the Summer. One event the whole family enjoys. From packing everything in one old pickup, the feed, livestock, tack, clothes, food and dragging a camper behind, hoping it made the 100 mile trip to Huron. Kim growing up 15 miles from Huron allowed us to stay at her folks when the kids were too young to exhibit.

Family History at the Fair - The Geffert Family tradition has been in the cattle showring and going for generations at the WI State Fair. Robbert Geffert (Sheaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Grandfather) and sons took home the Grand champion honors in both the horned Hereford bull and heifer divisions in 1971. This memory was one of Dave Gefferts highlights showing at the fair. Shown in the attached picture is Dave showing the horned champion female in 1971. Shea, along with his cousins, and sister also exhibited breeding and market cattle at the fair with many winners over the years. Involvement - We will have many families with cattle showing that were sold in our annual cattle sale. We want to wish the best of luck to all of those exhibitors!! As our family has grown so has our species involvement with Olivia now exhibiting market barrows at the fair. Best Memories - Many memories have been made over the years with our awesome customers showing cattle raised and or sold by us. Our customers have won the state fair previously and many have made the governors auction and celebrating with them was always a lot of fun! One of our fondest memories as a family was Oliviaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first year showing when she won her weight division in the crossbred barrow show. Traditions - There is no shortage of fun to be had at the WI State Fair!!! It is loaded with people, countless entertainment events daily, and the best food/beverage selection to be had! The iconic Original Cream Puff is a must have, and even if Oliva may have outgrown it, we are sure someone will make a trip down the Giant Slide! THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019 565

elcome to show day at the Wisconsin State Fair! It is the first Wednesday of August in Wisconsin, the day that all of the junior market exhibitors have been anxiously been awaiting. A day that is rich in tradition, and a day that is full of nerves, sweat, and smiles. The ultimate goal of each market livestock exhibitor is to be selected as a Breed Champion in their species, and have the honor of selling their animal on the stage of the Governor’s Blue Ribbon Livestock Auction. Winning your breed and selling in the auction gives the exhibitor the prestigious honor of participating in the "Camp of Champions".

566

The Wisconsin State Fair “Camp of Champions” program was developed for junior exhibitors to further enhance their livestock project experience. Along with the exhibitors, four previous experienced exhibitors are hired as Ambassadors to mentor and assist the junior exhibitors. The camp shares educational and rewarding opportunities as well as having some time for a little fun during their extended stay at the fair. The exhibitors represent their county, their respective youth organization, and the

businesses that purchased their animal at the Blue Ribbon Livestock Auction. During their camp experience, the kids learn to work on their skills to interact with the public, have the honor to do radio and television interviews all while promoting the fair and agriculture. The exhibitors also provide volunteer services to the Wisconsin State Fair at the Wisconsin Cattlemen’s Steak food venue, and Dairy Promotion concession stands. As the Wisconsin State Fair comes to an end and the kids get ready to head back home, the closing often brings many mixed emotions. The experience of the Camp of Champions brings years of new founded friendships and lifelong skills for the future. We would love for you to come see the animals and perhaps visit with the exhibitors at the Camp of Champions from August 8-11, located in the Dairy Cattle Building next to the House of Moo during the Wisconsin State Fair. Stay connected with us on Facebook with our Camp of Champs page and Governor's Blue Ribbon Livestock Auction page. Visit our website, www.gbrla.com, for more information about the Governor’s Blue Ribbon Livestock Auction and how to become an Auction Friend.

A commission charge of seven percent (7%) of the gross sales price will be levied against all animals sold in the Sale. The Colorado State Fair will additionally withhold from the gross market sale proceeds of each sale animal all fees for testing, trucking, handling charges, taxes, and other prorated deductions.

The total sale price for the Grand Champion animals will be divided on the following basis: 50% to the owner/ exhibitor of the animal sold; 15% to the owner/ exhibitor of the Reserve Grand Champion; 15% divided evenly among the breed/weight class champions; 10% in the name of buyer(s) to the Illinois 4-H Foundation; and 10% in the name of buyer(s) to the Illinois FFA Foundation.

OHIO

The animals sold in the 2019 Ohio State Fair Sale of Champions will have a top dollar cap as follows: Grand Champion Market Beef - $22,000 Reserve Grand Champion Market Beef - $11,000 Twenty-five percent (25%), or amount over cap listed above, whichever is greater, will be distributed among other youth exhibitors. These funds will go to the carcass contest, scholarships, Outstanding Market Exhibitor Program, showmanship, skillathons, dairy cattle, breeding livestock, FFA, 4-H, Ohio State Fair Band and Choir, and endowments.

2018 SALE PRICES

We compare the 2018 State Fair Sale Results from across the country! Each state keeps a different percentage (such as 7-20%), and states like Ohio have a cap where the steer exhibitor keeps only $22,000 of the $50,000 or the hog exhibitor only keeps $10,000 of the $41,000. Kansas is only a premium and not a sale. * = Fairs with Caps.

nytime we have a project to do, it always helps to have the right tool. If you’re fitting a steer and you don’t have the right comb, or your chute is too short, or your glue cap fell off, it can make the task difficult or impossible. We go the extra mile to be prepared with the right tools for the job so that we can accomplish our task as successfully and efficiently as possible. Tools can come in all forms. Often times you’ll hear judges at a show talk about showing livestock being a tool to shape our youth. Showing is not necessarily always about winning first place, but the lesson that goes with it. Showing teaches responsibility, perseverance, and sportsmanship all while bringing families together and creating life-long friendships. Sometimes, the most difficult times end up teaching the biggest lessons.

Peter was known for being loud and impulsive. Jesus predicted that Peter would deny Him three times and Peter fulfills that prediction. However, when Jesus arose, Peter is the first one Jesus speaks to. Peter later goes on to become the leader of the disciples after he learned from his mistakes. In Acts 2:38-39, “Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.” Peter had to experience this for himself first, which made him a more valuable teacher to others. There are so many examples in the Bible of people that make huge mistakes, repent, are forgiven, and go on to do great things. There is nothing too large for God to forgive, as long as you ask for it. We are all tools in God’s kingdom and we can all be used for good. In fact, we can use the mistakes that we’ve made to teach others why certain things are a bad idea. Learning the hard way and suffering consequences for our mistakes can help others, if we admit our faults. It seems that if God uses less qualified people, it proves just how big He really is. Most people don’t feel good enough, or “perfect” enough to be used by God, but they are the perfect tool for the job. Hebrews 4:16 reminds us “Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.” •

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

In God’s kingdom, we are the tools that God uses to spread His word and expand His kingdom. The Bible is full of examples of people that you may not think would be right for any job, but God uses them. Before Paul became a follower of Christ and the writer of most of the books of the New Testament, he was Saul of Tarsus, a Pharisee who set out to destroy Christianity by persecuting Christians. He was completely transformed by God and went on to preach for Christ throughout

Another example is King David. When we think of David, we usually think about him being a hero for killing Goliath. He was known as the greatest King of Israel who is described by God himself as a man after his own heart. Yet King David was also the same man that committed adultery with Bathsheba and murdered her husband to cover it up. David repented, was forgiven and then went on to still bring glory to God.

MEET THE EXHIBITOR

RHETT LOW RHETT LOW THE NEXT GENERATION. BY: RHETT J. LOWDERMAN

ello, my name is Rhett Jackson Lowderman, the son of Monte and Carrie Lowderman, and I am a 4th generation Hereford breeder. I was born and raised in Macomb, Illinois, where my family owns and operates Lowderman Auction & Real Estate, Lowderman Auction Options and Lowderman Cattle Company.

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

I started showing Hereford cattle

592

at the age of five, when I exhibited a fall heifer calf at the Schuyler County Fair, that at the time was one of the largest county fairs in Illinois. From the ages of five to nine, with the help of my parents and family, I was establishing and building my cow herd. I am very thankful for the early years because it taught me at a very young age to be thankful and blessed to understand that you can’t win them all; and to realize that success is more than just winning. At the age of ten, my dad and I purchased a Heifer from Sunset Ridge, Mr. Billy Martin, from Georgia. This heifer later became known as “Lady Gaga” and after a successful show career, she became my first donor cow. In 2012, I purchased a May heifer with a family friend, Brenda Sweatman, This heifer became known as “Miss Grand Island” and was named show heifer of the year by the American Hereford Association, and she was soon identified and known as, LCC Donor 116. In 2014, with the assistance of Billy Widerman, 2 Embryos, were implanted into recipient cows. These 2 embryos were out of “Lady Gaga” and “Miss Grand Island” and during the 2016 / 2017 Show season, these 2 females became known as the dynamic duo of RJL Miss Poker Face 5C ET and LCC SHF Miss Lemon Lime 502 ET. I showed and exhibited “Poker Face” while Deanajak and the Howes

WDERMAN family purchased, showed and exhibited “Lemon Lime”. Both were named show heifers of the year by the American Hereford Association; and with assistance of my family, as well as, Breck Debnum, Jae VanHorn, Reid Suddeth, Foggy Bottom Farms (Ray Howes & Billy Widerman); “Poker Face” made breed history.

I have met and done business with many respectable and reputable breeders throughout the United

This fall, I will be attending Black Hawk College, East Campus (BHE), and I plan to participate on their intercollegiate livestock judging team. Some have asked me why I chose BHE. My reply has been, “It felt like home; and for those who have not graduated high school yet, you will eventually understand what I’m saying.” Furthermore, and more importantly, I chose BHE because of Coach Dan Hoge. He has been a big inspiration to me and has helped me in so many ways and I will forever appreciate him. I look forward to the challenge and continuing my Uncle Cory’s and Uncle Cody’s Legacy at BHE There are several people that I look up to, and many that have had a positive influence on me. I am very humbled by their support, assistance and help. •

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

I enjoy being in 4-H, FFA and the National Junior Hereford Association. My favorite CDEs in FFA were livestock judging and proficiency interviews for record books. I set a goal my sophomore year to be an Illinois State Star Farmer Finalist. With the assistance of ag teachers Ann Knowles and Wyatt McGrew; and by hard work, determination and motivation; that goal was achieved this past June, as I was introduced as 1of the top 5 finalist / candidates during the Illinois State FFA convention.

States and Europe. These folks include Gary and Kathy Buckholtz, Tucker Janssen, Scott McDonald, Measker Herefords, Sullivan Farms, my family and others.

CLOSING THOUGHTS

AMERICA’S HEARTBEAT THIS IS WHY WE SHOW.

THANK YOU!

BY: LISA REID, CO

cannot remember a more jampacked Summer. From designing signs and banners for Junior Nationals, covering the shows themselves and putting together this State Fair Edition, it left very little time for sleep or any personal time. Next thing you know we will be diving head first into the State Fair leg of our “I Am Showtimes Tour!”

THE SHOWTIMES | AUGUST 2019

This crazy schedule and some conversations I’ve had over the course of the Summer have made me think about why we do this to ourselves. Not just us, but every individual involved in agriculture; especially with the tough year so many people have had due to weather and natural disasters. Why do we not just throw in the towel for a slower paced life?

competitive drives that add fuel to our fires. It’s about dedicating our lives to promoting and keeping alive an industry that people from the outside have already forgotten. It’s up to us to ensure that future generations will know where their food comes from and be able to be self-sufficient, all while having the opportunity to set goals such as exhibiting a National Champion or raising a high seller. My family and I are fortunate to have been raised in agriculture and we are looking forward to bringing you even more of the most dynamic industry coverage and exposure. •

Agriculture is the heartbeat of America. If we all back down from the challenges or the daily demands, it will fade quick in today’s modern culture. It’s not about the money or the trips to the backdrop. Those are just the

The CLASSIC has became the sale to attend when purchasing quality genetics. Donor cows have walked out of our pens and into yours in programs across the NATION. No matter the sector of the industry we have the maternal genetics that are proven to work. This is the year you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to miss. . . .

800 head will walk through the sale ring in Stillwater, Oklahoma, December 20th & 21st.

From elite show heifers hand picked from our program to donors that have proved profitable time and again, and an awesome set of cows carrying the service of our hottest sires, we guarantee there will be something for everyone. Give us a call, book your tickets, and talk to Santa Clause because your wish list is just fixing to grow a whole lot longer.
