Determination Award

Posted in Junior National, Livestock News, Chianina, Maine Anjou

This year, Sullivan Supply chose one individual to award with Sullivan Supply products. The determination award is designed for one exhibitor who shows extreme effort in the barns. This year the award goes to Raymond Jones of Texas. Raymond has gone above and beyond during Maine/Chi Junior Nationals, with late nights and early mornings and a can do attitude there’s no doubt Raymond deserves this award.
