South Central Iowa Showdown held

Wayne County Fair hosted the first-ever South Central Iowa Showdown 5:30 p.m. July 27 at Wayne County Fairgrounds in Corydon.

The showdown consisted of the champion animals from the following counties — Madison, Warren, Marion, Mahaska, Clarke, Davis, Appanoose, Wayne, Decatur and Ringgold.

Each county was invited to send one representative from each species — beef, swine, goats and sheep — to participate in the Showdown.

Attending the showdown from Clarke County was Maeci Andrew and Sam Cooley of Osceola. This year’s judge for the show was Mark Hoge.

This event was a success because of the support of many sponsors, including Clarke County Farm Bureau.
