Hunt County 2019 Fair Results

Posted Date: 09/11/2019

The Hunt County Fair has come and gone, and Celeste FFA members did an outstanding job in all areas of the junior livestock shows and the creative arts contests.  Celeste was well represented by the hardworking, dedicated and passionate members of the Celeste FFA.  During the ten day event, FFA students participated in the junior livestock show which included showing cattle, chickens, goats, rabbits, hogs, Ag Mech projects, sheep and the livestock judging contest.  Students also participated in creative arts contests which included cooking, baking, sewing, making salsa and baking with chocolate.  Several students also volunteered to help at special needs student day at the fair.  Highlights of the fair included Celeste winning HCF Queen, Grand Champion Market Broilers, Fryers, Lamb and three showmanship awards.  The junior livestock judging team won first, and Madisyn Douglas won the overall award in the creative arts baking division.  CHS senior, Jaxson Dillard, was also the recipient of a $1,000 Hunt County Fair Phil Garrett Scholarship.  Celeste FFA had a very successful week at the fair and a big thank you goes out to all the parents, grandparents, friends and community members for supporting us!
