This past weekend we welcomed over one hundred youth to our Stock Show University Grad Program held at the Missouri State Fairgrounds in Sedalia. Throughout the events on Saturday and Sunday, participants and their families attended educational sessions and worked hands-on with their cattle. Thank you to our professors who work tirelessly with each participant ensuring they receive the full Stock Show University experience. Josh Elder, Justin Johnson, Tyler McVay, Jake Campbell, Garrett Kietzman, Derek Ridder, Evan Kempker, Trent Kempker, Ty Ladner, Jaden Riley, and Andrew Chandler represented our program as professors for the weekend. We would like to extend a special thank you to Wendy Faulconer, Executive Director of the Missouri State Fair Foundation, for all of her help organizing the event!
