When it comes to sewing Ashlynn (15) and Makiaya Johnson (13) had one of the best teachers possible – their grandmother Roxana Johnson.
Sadly, their grandmother passed away two years ago, but they are keeping on the tradition of sewing and using wool in the projects. "Our grandmother wanted to pass sewing down to us," Makiaya said, "that is why we sew."

Savannah Suttee, of Encampment, was named princess-in-waiting for the 2015 Carbon County Fair. In addition to this title, she showed animals at the fair and competed in barrel racing. Suttee, 10, won barrel racing and pole bending, she said.

Now that he is in college, Hunter Mason said he will not have time to show animals at fair, but he finished his last county fair in style.
Mason took home Supreme Overall Breeding Gilt and the ribbon for Senior Showmanship for his market hog at this year Carbon County Fair.

When the scheduled judge for the steer show at the Carbon County fair did not show the organizers were lucky to have Corson Kerbs back in the pens.

It turns out that fair is a lot of work for Encampment's Konnar (16) and Kamry (13) Knotwell.
Starting in early June the sisters began a program with their steers and heifers of controlled feeding to get them to a target weight, washing, combing and drying their hair with fans. This program continued all the way through state fair.
