Stephenson County Fairgrounds hosted Section 1 FFA Fair

Durand FFA members Josh Erickson, Grant Johnson, Rachel Proctor, Amber Lee, Tyler Lee, Nolan Stadler, and Jeff McLean gathered for a group photo.

The 2021 Section 1 FFA Fair was held at the Stephenson County Fairgrounds on Tuesday, July 27. Everyone was super excited to be back in-person and have a real show together.

FFA members showed Beef Cattle, Dairy Cattle, Swine, Sheep, Goats, Rabbits, Poultry and Garden Produce. The FFA members with Horse competed the week before with Section 2 FFA in Amboy.

While in the show ring, the judges are looking for qualities that make the animal desirable to keep as part of a breeding operation, or that will make the animal great at market.

Section 1 FFA includes Dakota, Durand, Eastland, Forreston, Freeport, Galena, Lena-Winslow, Orangeville, Pearl City, Pecatonica, River Ridge, Scales Mound, Stockton, Warren, and West Carroll

Congratulations to all of our champions, reserves, and participants of all species and items.
