NEW Beef Tagging Date - Due to late tag arrival this year, beef will have the same tagging date as all other species - JUNE 15. This change will be in effect for this year only. Please see all tagging dates listed below.

NEW 4H and FFA Record Book -  4H and FFA will fill out the same record book this year. Please see the link to the left as well as the score sheet for grading.

NEW Add-On Form  - See our new Add-On Form at the link to the left. Only print and utilize this form. Do not use old Add on forms.

NEW Haul Out Form - This is a new requirement this year. Please look at our new Haul Out form. This will need to be filled out by all LJLS tagged animals that are shown but do not go through the sale. This is also required for all livestock that are placed on our butcher list that did not go through the sale.


New Photo Upload - No photo upload will be required this year, however we do recommend that you upload a picture that will be seen by buyers that utilize the online add-on program. It will look better to buyers if you have a photo of you and your animal uploaded. See the instructions for how to upload new photos of your animal to use (instructions below or link to the left). Please picture a clean animal and background and be in your 4H or FFA attire. We recommend having this picture uploaded by July 1.
