Youth Market Sale

Each year youth select livestock projects to raise throughout the year (or years in some cases) and then bring them to show to be judged at the Skamania County Fair. In addition to the expense of purchasing their animal, feed, and supplies, these projects require hours of attention to feed, train, and prepare for the show. The youth learn essential life skills such as communication, teamwork, cooperation, and responsibility, along with the humane treatment of animals.

4-H and Market Livestock projects provide opportunities for young people to develop solid values that will serve their community, wherever they live. The Skamania County Livestock Auction provides the community an opportunity to invest in our youth and their future. Proceeds from the sale of projects often fund college educations, enhancing the ability of these youth to contribute to their communities.

As a buyer, your participation in the sale recognizes youth for the time, expense, and effort that has gone into raising an animal for market. You may also obtain advertising value that accrues through the purchase of these animals. Please consider supporting our local youth at the Skamania County Youth Market Sale.
