About Guadalupe County Youth
Each year, about 585 young people ages eight to eighteen bring more than 1,000 projects to Guadalupe County Youth in Seguin. They show and sell livestock, baked goods, handicrafts, needlework, photography, and agricultural mechanics projects while building responsibility, leadership, and showmanship. Your support helps sustain an opportunity where young exhibitors can care for animals, present their work to the public, and, for participating seniors, pursue Youth Show scholarships.
Guadalupe County Youth gives young people room to develop both livestock projects and homemaking work, including baking, photography, welding, and woodworking. With approximately 585 participants and more than 1,000 projects entered each year, the annual show reflects a wide range of interests and skills.
