Since no state funds are available for our show, this program is solely funded by donated money from area businesses and individuals. We ask for your support and contributions for the Columbia Basin Junior Livestock Show. Early in 1995, groups of business people, livestock producers, and parents began actively preparing the foundation for an exhibition venue to promote the development of local youth in agriculture. The sole source of revenue to operate and maintain the growth of this project has relied on private funding through donations and sponsorships from businesses and individuals in the Columbia Basin Community.
