Keith Russell, Kay Cornelius and Roy Wardell set out nearly 20 years ago to remedy the declining numbers in the breeding cattle show at the Weld County Fair and began Weld County Cattle for Kids. The funds raised are all returned to 4-H members involved in the breeding program and, in the years since its inception, the Weld County Breeding Beef program is among the largest in the state.
