2025 Lampasas County Show Schedule
With winter precipitation (snow/sleet/wintery mix) in the forecast, the barn will be open all day on Wednesday for you to move animals in a day early if you choose to do so.
The original sheep/goat judge lives in North Texas where the brunt of the winter storm is supposed to hit & has canceled so our new sheep/goat judge will be Brandon Evans from Burnet County. That being said, there is a possibility of other divisions having to change judges as well.
Everyone please follow/join the Lampasas County Youth Livestock Show "Official" Facebook page to get real time updates regarding the show.
Obviously when dealing with winter weather we have to be fluid and flexible so everyone's patience & understanding is very much appreciated.
