LaPorte County Swine Project

🌟🐷 Calling all creative exhibitors! Following showmanship, join us for our first-ever Pig Costume Contest. Dress up your pig, dress up yourself, and let your imagination run wild. The more creative, the better!

‼️‼️‼️Pen Reservations‼️‼️‼️

Tagging numbers were significantly higher this year. While we will take pen reservation requests into consideration, we will not know our exact space availability until final numbers are confirmed. At this time, the only guarantee is a maximum of two pigs per pen, and tack pens will not be available.

We have also received several requests from exhibitors wishing to be placed next to four to six different families. Unfortunately, accommodating that many placement requests is not possible. If you have submitted multiple adjacency requests, we will select one of them and do our best to place you near that family.

Walton Webcasting will once again be live streaming our Swine Show this year, giving sponsors a great opportunity to support our exhibitors while reaching a large audience.

We are currently seeking additional sponsors to help make this event a success. If you or your business would be interested in sponsoring the live stream, please send us a message or contact Jen at 219-405-6328.

Thank you for supporting our youth and the LaPorte County 4-H Swine Program!
