Lennon shows winning heifer

Posted

Cacie Lennon, a  FFA member from Alba, captured Reserve Grand Champion Junior Female and Champion Heifer Calf with CWR Sequoyah in the Santa Gertrudis Junior Heifer Show at the 2023 Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo Feb. 2.

The 2023 show hosted junior exhibitors from across Texas competing for awards and more than $37,110 in Junior Heifer Show premiums.

With 4-H and FFA members from 239 of Texas’ 254 counties competing in livestock shows, judging contests and other competitions, the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo takes pride in providing learning opportunities in agriculture and livestock production.

Their experiences not only enlighten them on the importance of stewardship and helping feed the world, they also help provide the means to attend college and enter exciting career paths.

“Generations of families have competed in the Fort Worth Stock Show and it remains a cherished rite of passage for many who plan to make agriculture a career or who want to be a part of a school’s team program,” said Stock Show President and General Manager Bradford S. Barnes. “Even after decades of being involved in this show, I remain in awe of these young people and am more convinced than ever that the agricultural lifestyle is truly the lifeblood of this great nation.”
