Schuylkill County Fair Online Youth Livestock Auction

Schuylkill County Fair Online Youth Livestock Auction

Schuylkill County Fair is holding an Online Youth Livestock Sale starting Friday, July 24 @ 5 PM and running through Thursday, July 30 till 6 PM. Support local 4-H/FFA youth that has been caught up in this Covid-19 crisis.  Register as a prospective buyer by going online to www.derflers.com.   Interested buyers can support 4-H/FFA members and their projects as well as secure a quality meat product for themselves and their families.  Support the agriculture community that will put food on the table tomorrow.

These 4-H/FFA members have been raising some of these livestock projects long before the Covid-19 virus struck our country.  The members and their projects were caught up in all the fallout from the pandemic.  Over the last few months, the world has dealt with many issues connected to the Covid-19 virus and this is just another issue.  The issue evolved when on June 10 Schuylkill County Fair canceled their Fair for 2020.   Since 4-H/FFA works collaboratively with the Fair and with the mandates and regulations currently set forth by Penn State, the Schuylkill County 4-H program also announced the cancellation of 4-H Fair/round-up this summer.  The Fair experience is part of the overall 4-H/FFA educational experience. The Schuylkill County Fair Online Auction is an opportunity to showcase the 4-H/FFA members’ dedication, hard work, and perseverance during this trying time.
