ALCIVIA, a member-owned agricultural and energy cooperative, is thrilled to share donations to its 2024 Fair Participation Award youth exhibitors totaling $124,800, up from $103,700 in 2023.
In addition, submissions were up 20.3% in 2024. ALCIVIA received 852 submissions from youth in 30 different counties in Wisconsin and bordering states. Of the 852 submissions, 6%, or about 50 exhibitors, showed small animals with the rest showing large animals.
“It’s exciting to see kids participating in their local county fairs,” says Jim Dell, ALCIVIA CEO and President. “We received almost 150 more submissions than last year. This tells us that the ag industry within the communities we serve is alive and well.”
ALCIVIA rewarded every exhibitor who showed an animal at a local fair and whose family is a member of the cooperative. Small animal exhibitors received a $100 participation award and large animal exhibitors received a $150 participation award.
