Schroeder Law Offices Attends 2024 Nevada Agricultural Fair

Schroeder Law Offices, P.C. attorney Caitlin Skulan made her third appearance at the annual Nevada Agricultural Fair in Douglas County, Nevada.  Attorney Skulan served on the 2024 Fair Board as Treasurer.  In 2022, The Fair moved from Carson City, Nevada to Douglas County in order to take advantage of the larger fairgrounds and room for growth.

            The Fair’s primary events are a four-day youth livestock show and three-day “MAYHEMilition” that includes lawn mower racing, figure-eight demolition car racing, and a “tuff truck” competition.  The “MAYHEMilition” serves as the primary fundraiser for the youth livestock show. Local sponsors donate other funds. In the past three years, popularity and traction for the evening festivities has grown. This year, the grandstand was sold out both Friday and Saturday night!  Fair organizers expect the Fair to grow further in 2025. 

            During the day, the focus is livestock, livestock, livestock.  Regional 4-H, Grange, FFA, and Keystone Agricultural Society members partook in showing seven animal types. Animal types included cattle, swine, lambs, goats, rabbits, poultry, and horses. Each type of livestock is further divided by species as well as by purpose (breeder, dairy, or market).  The show concluded with the Sunday livestock auction, directed by Attorney Skulan. The auction had a record number of buyers for the Fair, that resulted in great support for the youth selling their market animals. 

            The Fair is a culmination of a year’s worth of constant efforts for organization, securing vendors, sponsor outreach, and funding.  The Fair Board, with the able assistance of Attorney Skulan, continues to grow and improve the event and is looking forward to an even better Fair in July 2025.
