Next Level Swine and Market Goat Camp

The Junior Livestock Committee is proud to be partnering with Next Level Livestock Camps to host a camp here in YOUR BACKYARD at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds. Next Level Livestock Camps are a power packed two-day camp that is focused on intensive showmanship training, feeding, and care unlike any camp available to youth livestock exhibitors today. Campers will receive an all-access pass to gain the hands-on training and knowledge to help take them to the next level. Our rigorous two-day schedule covers everything from prospect selection to driving a champion and bringing home the banner! Our graduates have won at the local, county, state and national levels. The hog camp has already surpassed the minimum number of participants needed but we are still short a few for the Market Goat portion of the camp. Therefore, the Junior Livestock committee is offering $75 scholarships for the first 5 people to send an email to jvrabec@arapahoegov.com to register for the camp. The camp is June 15 ^th & 16 ^th . The cost to you will be $275. Email me ASAP to ensure you get the discount. Email is the only way to qualify for the discount so that we have a time stamped document.
