Members of Princeton FFA claimed grand and reserve champion rosettes last week on their way to a successful 2016 Collin County Junior Livestock Show.

The show featured livestock and project showmen from throughout the county was held at Myers Park Event Center in McKinney, culminating in a ribbon sale Saturday afternoon. In a ribbon sale, bidders reward the junior exhibitors for the efforts but the showmen keep their animals to take to other shows.

A guitar crafted by Daniel Zydel was judged the Grand Champion Miscellaneous Wood winner in the county show.
