The Austin County Livestock Project Group is a 501C-3 non-profit that supports the youth of Austin County in many ways, including covering fees associated with Austin County 4-H’s participation in all livestock-based judging contests, skill-a-thons, and quiz bowl competitions as well as clinicians and door prizes for project species meetings, educational resources for livestock project training and training for project leaders or ambassadors. LPG also covers payment for all judges and prizes for the Austin County 4-H Progress Show and Swine Skill-A-Thon in August every year, which is open to not only 4-Her’s but any eligible showman in Austin County. To help offset costs and allow LPG to support more youth and their projects, please join us at the 1^st Annual “‘Que for the Kids” BBQ Cook-Off!
