The San Luis Valley Fair Board is proud to support the youth that have put in hours of sweat, tears and hard work all year to complete their livestock projects. Each livestock exhibitor is allowed to choose one animal to sell in the Junior Livestock Auction. Through the support of the generous buyers and sponsors of the sale, these youth are shown that this valley truly believes in them!
Join us this year on August 8, 2025 at 6:00 pm. A BBQ hosted by Farmer's Union and District 8 will be from 4-6:30 pm.
Are you unable to join us at the sale but would still like to support these incredible youth? Using the Add-On option just might be the ticket for you! Have one specific youth you would like to support? Want to recognize all of one species exhibitors or even all of the kids? You can do it all with the Add-On Form! You can even recognize the hard working Indoor Project Exhibitors too! The Add-On option is also a great way if you would like to stay anonymous with your support. Click below for the Add-On form and send it back to the Fair Board as soon as possible.
Just show up! We have a table full of dedicated staff that is waiting to help you on sale night. If you are hoping to bid or purchase an animal in one of the earlier lots, please come a little a bit early so we can make sure you are ready to bid before the sale starts.
Last year, a total of 186 animals were sold at the Junior Livestock Auction. Each exhibitor is allowed to select one of their animals at the sale. All Grand and Reserve Champion animals must sell. You will see the best of the best at this sale!
You have a few options once you buy an animal. We have five processing partners to choose from to have your animal processed. Check out the section below to view your options! If you aren't interested in filling your freezer, you still have two other options! You can return it to the exhibitor so they can take it back home. This allows the exhibitor to continue showing if if they want or for female animals, they can return the animal to their breeding program. If the exhibitor isn't interested in keeping their animal, you can also put the animal on the truck. The buyback price of the animal will be deducted from your final bill.
