Okeechobee Youth Livestock Show

Thursday  March18  to       Saturday March  20, 2004

at the NEW Okeechobee County Agri-Civic Center

The  Okeechobee Youth Livestock Show committee would like to invite you to attend the 2004 shows and sales to be held at our new Ag center.  4-H club and FFA chapter members are active in their groups, keep accurate records and raise quality animals.  These project teach responsibility and help our youth to become good citizens.

Please help us support them by attending the Sale and  Steak Dinner Saturday night and by purchasing one of their livestock projects.  If you are unable to purchase an animal, consider making a donation by "adding-on" to any youth exhibitor or to the show as a whole! 

Thank You,

John Gilliland, President
