[QUOTE="Campground Cattle, post: 21688, member: 195"] My opinion it doesn't, the average rancher doesn't have the money to buy the show. In the county where I live year after year I watch the richer famlies buy first place by bringing in stock that most could never afford. The best junior show I have ever seen is in Galveston county. Here they have a commerical show, you get to see the work the kids have put into these animals. These are crosssbred and nonregistered cattle, Daddy can't buy this show. The average calf cost 300 dollars or donated by ranchers. At auction most of these calves bring 1000 to 2000 dollars from the local ranchers . I offer a calf to a kid every year that normally couldn't avoid one. Last years Sim/hereford cross brought 1200 dollars for the high school girl I donated to. Good feeling to help a kid that wants to work and see what they can accomplish with a little help. [/QUOTE]
