Graham Buyers Committee
Most folks who want to back our 4-H and FFA exhibitors can't be in the stands on sale day. The Buyers Committee raises the money year-round, then shows up at the Graham Junior Livestock Show and buys — putting real premium money behind every kid in the ring.
How the committee works
Fall fundraiser, contribution letters, raffles, and sponsor squares — every dollar goes on the purchase card.
Committee buyers work the sale on your behalf, bidding on steers, heifers, swine, goats, lambs, broilers, and rabbits.
Premium money funds the next project, the next entry fee, the trip to majors — and college accounts down the line.
This year's fundraiser
Every square on the brand wall is a $100 stake in the purchase card. Claim one and we burn your initials — your own brand — onto the board. The wall hangs at the show barn all weekend, and lives right here the rest of the year. Business squares link straight to your website.
