Dear Friends:
Welcome to the Annual Loudoun County Fair Livestock Auction. This is your invitation to our Livestock Auction. The Livestock Sale will be held at the Loudoun County Fairgrounds on Friday, July 26th, at 6:00 pm sharp! The fair officially opens on July 22nd through July 26th. Please attend early to enjoy this annual community event, tour the barns, view the exhibits, and pre-select your purchase and visit with 4-Hers. To sign up to bid please email Carly Campbell - carlyjc@vt.edu
The Loudoun County Fair Livestock Sale is a long-standing tradition that allows Loudoun’s 4-H youth to sell their market class project animals. The sale is held in a live-bid, floor-auction type format. It is an opportunity for members of the community to purchase meat that is raised with the utmost care by a local 4-Her. Buyers can be individuals, families, groups or businesses. To our long-time buyers, we thank you for your continued participation and support. To potential buyers, please read the Auction 101 document for more information and consider becoming a buyer. We are confident that we will have some of the finest 4-H animals in all of Virginia at our Livestock Sale this year. We look forward to seeing you at the Fair!
Enclosed in your official Bidder’s packet is the following:
Bidder’s Number
Fair Entry Tickets
Bidder’s Information Sheet
Processor availability and cost breakdown
Parking Pass – space is limited in Bidder Parking so please arrive early.
In closing, we ask that you please pay for your purchase before leaving the sale. This will allow us to distribute the proceeds to the 4-Hers and process the sale in a timely fashion. Credit card purchases are available; however, an administrative fee will be added to the buyer’s invoice. It is also imperative that you contact your processor within 3 days of the auction. Auction personnel will do their best to ensure appropriate contact has occurred. If within 30 days, a buyer has not contacted the processor they chose, the processor may retain the meat for re-sale or donation, and to otherwise cover their processing expenses.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. You may contact Carly Campbell via email or cell, carlyjc@vt.edu or 571-258-8175.
Thank you again for your loyalty and contributions to the youth of Loudoun County. We look forward to seeing everyone on Friday, July 26th, at 4:30 pm.
See you at the fair!
Carly Campbell
