Pigs know how to play. Set loose to run off some steam before the youth came for them, pigs frolicked this way and that, ran in circles and dodged each other like a flock of starlings, having as much fun as you can imagine. And, they are cute. The pigs supplied the usual fun moments, with plenty of squeals like they were about to become bacon, once the 10 to 14-year-olds got in the mix. Participants exercised innumerable and savvy strategies to get their greased slippery pig to the center pen, with most contestants finding the wheel barrow technique best, holding the back legs up and steering the pig to the pen. Where o’ where were the calves Twist #3 - Due to the move, the Show Barn offered insufficient protection from running calves. For the crowd’s safety the Calf Scramble was scrapped, or scrambled you might say. Calf Scramble is for ages 12 up to 18 years of age with a maximum 18 participants. Those who catch a calf are eligible to take it home, raise it, and return the next year for judging. The 2021 Calf Scramble winners returned with their project to be judged in a variety of categories - conformation, weight gain, grooming, record keeping, showmanship and over-all.
