SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS (RFD NEWS) — The Texas stock show swing is officially underway, and the San Antonio Stock Show is serving as a key stop for junior exhibitors competing on one of the state’s biggest stages.
A close-knit group of friends is showing heifers in San Antonio before loading up and heading to their next destination on the circuit. Kirbe Schnoor takes us behind the scenes to highlight the long days, early mornings, and dedication it takes to compete—along with the memories being made along the way.
The spotlight features Kylee Gaston of Eastland, Texas; Annabelle Vander May of Glen Rose, Texas; and Karsyn Pack of Stephenville, Texas, who are balancing competition, camaraderie, and the demands of life on the road during the heart of stock show season.
