🚨 Save the Date – OC Fair Junior Livestock Auction! 🚨
📅 Saturday, July 26
🕙 Opening Ceremonies: 10 AM | Auction Begins: 10:30 AM
📍 OC Fair & Event Center
The OC Fair Junior Livestock Auction isn’t just about bidding—it’s about investing in the future of agriculture. Every purchase supports the hardworking 4-H and FFA youth who’ve dedicated 3-9 months to raising and caring for their animals. These students are tomorrow’s agricultural leaders, learning responsibility, dedication, and entrepreneurial skills along the way. 🌾🐖🐑
Why be a buyer?
Support local students while helping fund their future animal projects, education, and leadership growth.
Take home high-quality, locally sourced meat for your family.
Be part of a community tradition that empowers youth and strengthens agriculture.
Auction Highlights:
Only blue-ribbon “market ready” animals are sold—the best of the best!
Champions and Reserve Champions in each species will be available for purchase.
Market beef, goats, lambs, hogs, and rabbits will be part of the lineup.
Buyer Info:
New buyers must pre-register between July 21–26 at ocfair.com/auction.
In-person bidding only. Add-on contributions (supporting students without buying an animal) are online from July 27–29.
Buyer check-in starts at 8 AM at Gate 10 – plan to come early!
Complimentary meals for returning buyers + breakfast at 9 AM.
Want to make an impact but can’t take home meat?
Add-ons and buy-backs let you support youth without purchasing an entire animal. You can even donate your purchase to a scholarship fund or charity.
🔥 Your support fuels the future of agriculture, education, and leadership. Mark your calendar and come raise your paddle for the next generation of ag leaders!
