hello,

     My name is Sophia Cardenas, and I am in the 10th grade at James Madison High School. I have been showing lambs for two years. This year my project is named Harley, whose breed is a Southdown. During his show season he placed 1st and 2nd in the market division at our Fall Challenge. I will be showing at the AG Fair Premium Auction at James Madison High School on Saturday, January 8, 2022. I will also be showing at the San Antonio Livestock Show. Raising animals is challenging, but amazing and rewarding work! I have been working with my lamb since I purchased him in August of 2021. My most favorite part of showing lambs is learning new techniques and innovative ways to improve my showmanship skills. Hopefully with the funds I receive from this premium Auction, I will be able to pursue my passion for livestock animals and further my education in animal science. I feel sincerely blessed with all the support I have received from my family and friends. I hope you will continue to support and donate to my cause and our incredible Agriculture Magnet Program. Thank you very much!!
