2025 Buckle Sponsors

Buckles are awarded to exhibitors who excel in the show ring and demonstrate exceptional dedication to the care and well-being of their livestock. These exhibitors go above and beyond, working countless hours to ensure their animals are well cared for, healthy, and prepared for competition. Their commitment to maintaining clean and organized stall spaces, along with their deep attention to the health and presentation of their animals, sets them apart. Earning a buckle symbolizes their hard work, dedication, and excellence in livestock care and showmanship—a true testament to their passion and perseverance.

We sincerely thank the individuals and businesses who sponsor these awards for our exceptional exhibitors. Sponsorship is $100, although the actual cost of each buckle is much higher. Thanks to the generosity of Larry and Betty Hirsch from Hirsch Feed Thayer, who provided us with a significant discount, we can keep the sponsorship fee at $100. 

However, we still rely on sponsors to help cover the remaining costs and ensure these awards are possible. Your support is vital in continuing this tradition.
