Committee cancels annual 4-H livestock auction

Posted

ELIZABETH–The Jo Daviess County 4-H Auction Committee has made the decision to cancel the 2020 livestock auction due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The decision was not made lightly, organizers say, but was made out of concern for the safety and health of our 4-H members, families, buyers and community. 4-H members are encouraged to contact their buyers and share this decision.
