Market Livestock Nominations will be open from April 15 to May 15, 2026.
Please Note:
- No family nominations will be accepted this year.
- Each animal must be nominated under the specific youth who will be showing it.
- If you are unsure which sibling will be showing a particular animal, it must be nominated under each potential exhibitor who may show it.
- If an animal was already nominated under one youth but should have been under another, you still have time to correct this before the new deadline.
We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we work to ensure a smooth and fair nomination process for all participants.
If you have any questions or need help with corrections, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
If you weren’t able to download your pictures when you entered, you can do so during this extended time. Many entries are missing pictures, so please check yours by following these steps:
- Log into your account.
- Go to your cart and click Edit.
- Select View/Print Transactions.
- Upload your files.
Check your animals’ pictures to ensure they downloaded correctly.
