The Northeast Youth Livestock Show will take place this year at the Brown County Fairgrounds Sept. 12–14.

While educating Wisconsin’s youth on how to responsibly raise a market-ready animal, the show instills important life and business values, along with providing the community with fresh cuts of meat at a great price.

The livestock weigh-in will take place Saturday, Sept. 12 from 8 to 11 a.m., with the livestock showmanship competition taking place Sunday, Sept. 13 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Auction bidding will take place Monday, Sept. 14 starting at 9:30 a.m., and will conclude with the sale of the show’s grand and reserve champions at noon. Hog, beef and lamb will all be auctioned.

“We’ve made the entire auction process as easy as we could,” said Rob Larsen of Northern Concrete, one of the show’s board members. “We even have a really easy resale process for those who would like to support the kids, but do not want to keep the animal.”

Professionals will also be available to do the bidding if anyone is interested, but are unable to attend.

Maplewood Meats, Otto’s Meats, Village Meats, and Dalebroux Meats will be available to assist with processing.

Banks, builders, professional organizations, farmers, insurance companies, design firms, and restaurants have all previously attended the Northeast Youth Livestock Show.

Companies have many options once an animal has been purchased,” said Larsen. “I’ve seen companies use the processed meat as a bonus or incentive reward for employees, or even use it to cater a company picnic.”
