Ansley Daubenmier Talks the Limitless Livestock Show at the Knox County Fair!

Ansley Daubenmier shares about her experience with the Knox County Junior Fair over the years.

She also talks about a show that she started for this year’s fair: the Limitless Livestock Show. This show allows for community members with Development Disabilities to have the opportunity to show pigs, goats, and rabbits, without the obligation of purchasing the animal.

The goal is the pair the showman to a 4-H or FFA member so they can compete in a friendly livestock show. A mentor will be with the showman all along the way — teaching, helping, and guiding.

This show will take place at the Multipurpose Building at the fairgrounds on July 26th, 3pm.
