In 2021, we saw how resilient our stock show families are. We saw teamwork. We saw unity that was unique and incredible to support thousands of 4-H and FFA youth across the state during a pandemic. As we begin filling our livestock pens in preparation for the 2022 show season, we are excited to share that The Grandstand committee and eight volunteers from the past Hill Country District Junior Livestock Show have joined forces to create a new organization and show, the Hill District Grandstand Show. This organization has been formed to continue the tradition of supporting our 4-H and FFA youth in the Hill Country and surrounding areas. The Hill District Grandstand Show will be the only (?) District show moving forward. We hope you and your family will join us at the show to be held January 15-22, 2022!
As
we are working on getting everything ready, we appreciate your patience as we
continue to develop the rule book and entry platform. Attached
you will find the rule book, and below is a link to our website with show
information.
