This is the time when animals they have cared for all year are sold to the public. It is the final step in their livestock project, where the marketing education aspects come to life. Why should I purchase an animal from the 4-H Livestock Auction? 1. To support and encourage young people participating in one of the most active youth livestock programs in the state. Oakland County’s 4-H programs produce the highest quality market animals of today and the outstanding citizens of tomorrow. 2. To purchase some of the best beef, pork, lamb and goats in the entire state. 3. As a buyer you will: a. Have your name as the buyer placed over the animal’s pen at the next year’s fair. b. After the sale, your name as a buyer may be submitted to local newspapers and will appear in next year’s Fair Program Book. A photograph of the animal will be given to you to display in your place of business or home. If you would like to be in the photo with your purchased animal, go immediately to the photo area to be photographed with the child and the animal. How do I buy an animal? Plan to arrive early. A listing of all animals, by weight, in order of sale, will be available auction day. This provides you with the opportunity to compare animals in the barn and to select several alternative animals to meet your needs. 4-H members will be available to preview their animals with you prior to sale. When an animal you would like to purchase is in the ring and at a price you desire, signal the auctioneer by raising your hand. If you receive the final bid, make sure the auctioneer has you name or number so that it can be announced and recorded.
