We are incredibly proud of Case Stayer and Harrison Murnin for representing Rosebud-Treasure Counties at the Champion of Champions Show in Miles City, Montana!

These two young exhibitors worked hard throughout the fair season and had the opportunity to showcase their animals at the Champion of Champions Show. We are so proud of the way they represented our county and the effort they put into reaching this level of competition.

Congratulations, Case and Harrison! We are excited to celebrate this achievement with you and can’t wait to see what you accomplish next!

We will have a booth to ensure accurate readings of dial-gauge pressure canners.

Why Test Your Gauge:
Prevent botulism: Low pressure means food does not reach the high heat needed to kill dangerous bacteria.
Annual check: Dials lose accuracy over time and must be verified before each canning season.

What to bring:
Bring the entire pressure canner lid with dial gauge attached

*must be dial guages, weighted gauges do not go through this test*
