Aspiring young livestock exhibitors can gain a competitive edge with the 4-H Showmanship Clinic as part of the upcoming Showdown in Georgetown. The clinic offers separate sessions for swine on May 18th and beef on May 19th, starting at 8 a.m. at the Georgetown Fairgrounds, 413 N Seminary St., Georgetown, IL 61846.
With show season right around the corner, this informative clinic will teach participants the fundamentals of showcasing their animals at upcoming jackpots, county fairs, and national shows. From proper handling and grooming techniques to confident presentation in the show ring, the clinic will provide valuable knowledge to help young exhibitors shine.
The beef presenter is Paige Lemenager. Originally from Hudson, Illinois, she and her family own a purebred Angus & Hereford cow/calf operation focused on producing elite show cattle. Paige was named Champion Showman at the National Junior Angus Show in 2022 and considers showmanship a skill driven by passion and hard work. She will continue her Animal Science studies and livestock judging career at Texas Tech University this fall. Paige spent her youth as a member, leader, and officer in the 4-H organization on the local and state levels. She firmly believes that 4-H is the foundation for youth in agriculture to build a strong future, and she thoroughly enjoys working with young showmen.
