Become an Auction Friend

Thank You to all who made the 2021 Wisconsin State Fair a success.

Planning for 2022 has begun and your continued support is important

The Governor's Blue Ribbon Livestock Auction (GBRLA) supports incredible opportunities for  Wisconsin Youth by supportng Wisconsin State Fair Jr. Show awards, scholarship awards, and many activities. As an “Auction Friend” you play a key role in the future of the auction. We ask that you consider joining us in making this coveted event possible for Wisconsin’s Youth and help us to have another record-setting year!

The 2021 GBRLA supported nearly 300 Wisconsin State Fair Junior Exhibitors by awarding $100 to each Showmanship Competition winner in every age category; $250 to each of the Reserve Champions not sold in the auction; and by presenting three Leadership Awards – one each in beef, sheep and swine. In addition, we continued to proudly sponsor the Wisconsin Livestock Breeders Association's 2021 Show Camp. The Blue Ribbon Sale of Champions Foundation will once again be managing the 2021 Camp of Champions featuring all the junior exhibitors who have sold animals in the auction and awarding $30,500 in scholarships! In 2021, the Governor's Blue Ribbon Livestock Auction raised an impressive $303,800 of which $208,450 was paid to the juniior fair exhibitors who sold animals in the auction.  2
