The Giles Beef Production & Management Contest gives Mayes County Fair beef exhibitors the opportunity to put their livestock knowledge to the test while competing for scholarships and a commercial heifer.
Participants complete a written exam over beef production and management, with top scorers advancing to an interview.
Thanks to the generosity of Tom Giles, the program awards $8,000 in scholarships plus a quality commercial heifer to deserving 4-H and FFA members.
