The Ohio Pork Council and OH-Pigs Program are pleased to host the "Breaking Boundaries Pig Show" at the 2024 Ohio State Fair.
The goal of this special event is to give participants who have intellectual and/ or developmental disabilities the opportunity to care for and show pigs, which is an opportunity not typically offered at the Ohio State Fair. The show will welcome participants between 9 and 22 years old and are Ohio residents. These exhibitors will be paired with a youth pig exhibitor who will serve as a mentor for them, as well as provide the animal for use in the show.
We are excited for your interest in being a participant (or as we call them in the show pig world, an exhibitor) at the 2024 Breaking Boundaries Pig Show. As a potential participant you will be required to attend our show held on July 26 at 5 P.M. in the O'Neill Swine Barn at the Ohio State Fairgrounds. We also encourage you to participate in any additional events that are hosted, such as meetings, etc.
After completing this form, the Ohio Pork Council team will review your information and Education Director, Kayli Mitchell, will contact you.
If you have any questions, please contact Kayli at kmitchell@ohiopork.org.
