After a long summer of work and preparation, livestock competitors were crowned winners at the Montezuma County Fair last week.
Many competitors sold their livestock at the Fair’s auction, and they were supported by area businesses. Because of a Montezuma County rule, competitors can only sell one animal at the fair’s auction.
