2024 Cherry County Fair Beef Show. Judges were Steve Snell and Kasey Snell.

Cherry County 4-H is growing in many ways in 2024, including the addition of a new competition at the Fair. Youth had the option to have their market beef entries ultrasounded to determine carcass quality, which they could be shared with potential auction buyers. It is also another way for youth to be recognized for the quality of their project. Not all animals that end up in the Champion ring at the regular show end up in the top tier of the carcass contest!
