Information      

We have four areas that may be reserved during your event.

The Show Barn houses the Donald Griffin Show Ring, the concession stand, one set of bathrooms, and the legislative classroom. The features of the Donald Griffin Show Ring are as follows; a 40'x80' carpeted arena and 10 5'x5' stalls for placing inside the arena. Class holding pens and an announcers area can be added in the arena as well. Other features of the building include sound connection inside the arena and to the Livestock Barn, air conditioning, bleacher seating for 300 people, one of the three windows to the concession stand and roll up doors to connect the Show Barn and Livestock Barn.

The Concession Stand can be reserved as its own facility without having to reserve the full Show Barn. This concession stand features three roll up windows to facilitate different sized groups. One window is inside the Show Barn and two windows are on the outside of the Show Barn. One is facing the livestock Barn and the other faces the Otis and Nell Mitcham Nixon Horse Arena.  The concession stand is managed by the Newton County Young Farmers and has fryers, flat tops, and a char grill. Menu options can be discussed.

The Livestock Barn is the holding area for the livestock. The maximum number of 5' x 5' pens is 200 , and there are enough tie up areas for 140 head of cattle. Also equipped in this barn are two wash racks, sound, one hog scale, one cattle scale, 24 hour light access, and hundreds of power outlets.

The Otis and Nell Mitcham Nixon Horse Arena is a covered arena that covers a 125'x 200'  arena with a m10/river sand mixture, 15 10'x10' Stalls, an elevated air conditioned announcers booth, bathrooms, audio, bleacher seating for 300 people, a tractor with a drag rake, and a water system that assists in keeping the arena to the correct moisture content. Outside of the main arena there is a small uncovered practice arena.
