Excellent displays of showmanship will be rewarded with Belt Buckles for the swine, lamb, goat, poultry, rabbit, and beef divisions.

There will also be a special scholarship presented by the Community Foundation of Abilene in honor of Johnathon Tschaar.

The scholarship is worth $1,000 for a year and all 4H and FFA members exhibiting in the livestock show are eligible.
