County livestock show opens Jan. 7

by | Jan 5, 2023 | Education, Latest

Several FFA and 4-H students will step into the show ring in a culmination of months of hard work preparing animals for the show ring, and potentially an auction. 

Students will parade their pigs, cattle, sheep, poultry and goats around the show ring next week to be judged in the 2023 Collin County Junior Livestock Show and Sale. There will also be competitions for horticulture displays and shop projects at the annual show.

The event, which features entries from FFA and 4-H members throughout the county, is set for the week of Jan. 7-14 at the Myers Park and Event Center, located at 7117 CR 166 in McKinney.

Doors will open at 7 a.m. every day of the weeklong show and close at 6 p.m.
