    Kaston Tipp of Shiner earned Grand Champion Heifer and Junior Champion Heifer with Miss TR Candy 977 in the Brahman heifer division at the 2025 Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo (FWSSR) on January 27. The 2025 Show is hosting junior exhibitors from across Texas competing for awards and more than $243,000 in premiums, including $35,900 in Junior Breeding Heifer Show premiums.
    The FWSSR takes pride in providing agriculture and livestock production learning opportunities through livestock shows, judging contests and other competitions that test their knowledge and skills in areas including robotics, wildlife and habitat management, horticulture and equine care and production to name a few. 
    Both 4-H and FFA members from more than 239 of Texas’ 254 counties have the opportunity to compete for premium awards, scholarships and the chance to sell their animals in the Jr. Sale of Champions. Their experiences enlighten them on the importance of natural resource stewardship and feeding a growing global population. 
    “Helping today’s youth become tomorrow’s leaders goes to the heart of the mission of the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo,” said FWSSR General Manager Matt Carter. “Regardless of where their career path takes them, the experiences and lessons learned here are invaluable.”
