Big Night at the Walker County Fair last night at their Premium Sale!! It's a fun exciting night for our kids (and us!), as they can earn some serious money through the auction!!
The late nights, the early mornings and the hard work our students put into their animals is remarkable!
Thank you to all of our local businesses that support our kids through the purchases (and the addons), and of course all of the members of the Huntsville ISD Buyers Group. (if you bought a jeans pass or made a donation- we are talking to YOU!)
The Huntsville ISD Buyers Group is one of a kind here in Walker County, and we are super proud (and super grateful to our members) that this group consistently works to bless all of our students financially, year after year, through the purchase and add on process to all of our student projects!! (Y'all are kind of a big deal!)
And of course the Sale continues this Saturday, beginning at 12 noon when they host the Premium Non-Livestock Auction, followed by the Freezer Sale!
Congratulations to ALL of our students, and thank you again for supporting our youth!!
