Impact Report County Fair 150 youth participated in the Chaves County Fair showcasing their development of life skills through livestock exhibits. Over 750 livestock projects were exhibited. Youth received recognition and feedback for continued improvement of knowledge and skills. Over $350,000 was paid to Chaves County 4-H members through the junior livestock sale and over $5000.00 was awarded in fair related scholarships. 83% of Chaves County 4-H youth showed an increase in knowledge and skills related to livestock, horse, rabbit, and poultry projects as evidenced by the quality of animals shown, ribbons won, and showmanship awards received. One fair board member stated: “This has probably been one of the best fairs we have ever had. The quality of animals runs deep in every class and the quality of kids runs even deeper.”
