Pima County Fair creates online auction to help 4-H students [View all]

4-H selling their steers online

Pima County Fair canceled due to coronavirus concerns, so the 4-H students are selling their steers online.

4-H is a program that has students raising animals, like steer, to teach them responsibility. Then, they get the animal ready to be sold in an auction at the fair.

Each student spends about 5,000 dollars on buying and raising the steer over a span on 11 months.

"it makes me really proud of myself to know how much hard work I’ve put into each of these animals," 4-H student Annie Stephens said.
