Sheep in the ring, kids on a mission—it’s time for the 4H/FFA Sheep Show!
These young exhibitors have been working hard behind the scenes: feeding, shearing, walking, and learning every step it takes to get a sheep show-ready. And now, it all plays out in front of the judges—and the crowd.
Some sheep will glide. Others will leap, sidestep, or try to go their own way. Either way, the kids keep showing up—focused, determined, and full of fair spirit.

First-time fair memories start right here—with a calf, a bucket, and a whole lot of heart.
The Bucket Calf Show is where the youngest 4H and FFA members get their start. These kids have raised their calves from just days old, learning how to feed, halter, groom, and care for them—often for the very first time.
It’s not about perfect showmanship or polish. It’s about effort, learning, and those proud, sometimes wobbly walks into the ring.

Big animals, big effort, and big heart—this is the 4H/FFA Beef Show.
These young exhibitors have spent months working with their cattle: brushing, halter-breaking, feeding, and getting up early when most of us were still asleep. Today, it all comes down to the ring.
You'll see showmanship, muscle, and control on full display—as these kids guide thousand-pound animals with calm hands and quiet confidence. Every step tells a story of time, trust, and tenacity.

It’s showtime in the barn, and the pigs are looking sharp. The 4H and FFA Swine Show is one of the biggest events of the week—and for good reason. These kids have spent months feeding, walking, and working with their pigs, and now it’s their chance to show the results.
You’ll see powerful builds, fast feet, and handlers who know how to guide with a steady hand and a whole lot of patience. From market classes to showmanship, the competition’s fierce—but the support ringside is even stronger.

Muscatine is a great community. There, I said it. Now, what does that mean?
I’ve lived in Muscatine my entire life, except for a couple years in Iowa City for school. I love Muscatine. Is it perfect? No. Can it be better? Of course. Will it be better? You better believe it.
If you look at the history of Muscatine, it’s been a community that thrives when it exports products and ideas. Whether it’s lumber, pearl buttons, office furniture, grain products, retread tire processes or any other of the products and services Muscatine has exported from this quiet river town, we as a community, have always found a way to not just survive but thrive.
We firmly believe that it’s time for everyone - people in Muscatine, people looking for somewhere to visit, people looking for somewhere to grow their business or people looking for somewhere to start their business - to DISCOVER MUSCATINE.
Because of this belief, our team came together in an office in Historic Downtown Muscatine to produce something everyone in Muscatine can be proud of.
Are we a free newspaper delivered every week to all homes in Muscatine County? Yep
Do we have a web portal that brings together all things Muscatine? Yep
Do we produce video products including local shows featuring local hosts and guests? Yep
Do we help Muscatine businesses connect with people of Muscatine? Yep
Are we 100% locally owned by someone that grew up in Muscatine? Yep
Do our kids go to the same schools as yours? Yep
Do we serve the non-profits of the community, not just by posting their events and press releases, but by volunteering and service on their boards? Yep
Are all of these things important for a local media company? ABSOLUTELY
If you have any questions about Discover Muscatine, what we do or what we can do to better serve Muscatine (including all our surrounding communities), just stop by our office at 215 E 2nd St. in Downtown Muscatine. You’ll find the whole staff, the owner and a whole bunch of cool stuff.
Thanks for your enthusiastic support and confidence in us!
