Supreme Showmanship

Attention, all animal handling enthusiasts! Don’t miss the exciting Showmanship Showdown at the Dodge County Fair!

This unique competition showcases the top junior and senior showmen from the dairy, beef, sheep, and swine projects. These talented young individuals will face a double challenge:

• Showmanship with their own animal: They will demonstrate the skills they have developed while working with their personal project animal.
• Adaptability challenge: They will also be tested on their ability to handle and show animals from two other species!

This is your opportunity to see these rising stars in action, even if you missed the traditional livestock shows earlier in the Fair. These young exhibitors have dedicated countless hours to preparing their animals, and the Showmanship Showdown is an exciting display of their hard work and versatility.

Come witness the future of agriculture and cheer on these talented individuals at the Showmanship Showdown!

Video of the event will be available on our YouTube channel
