JR. LIVESTOCK PROGRAM
A Wide Range of Enrichment Programs
Each year over 300 of Morgan County youth participate in the Junior Livestock Program raising market animals for the County Fair. The youth learn essential life skills like responsibility, compassion, and the humane treatment of animals. They learn cooperation, leadership and community service through participation in 4-H clubs or FFA.
The Junior Livestock program is for youth in grades 3 - 12, as of September 1, of the current 4-H year. In order to provide for the safety and best interest of the participants, youth in grades K - 2 are not eligible to participate. Youth must be enrolled in 4-H or participating in the FFA program at Morgan High School. Registration deadline is March 31, 2022 by 5 PM. No exceptions!
This program includes activities for those youth who own/have access to livestock. Activities can include everything from education and fun club meeting, livestock shows and the Morgan County Fair, service projects, judging contests and leadership opportunities.
