Lake County SR. Market Livestock

10/16/2026

The Lake County Agricultural Society/Lake County Senior Market Livestock is excited to share that we have received a $1,500 grant from the Cohen & Co. Community Foundation to help with needed repairs and upgrades to our fair scales!

Justin Miller, a former Lake County 4-H’er and current employee of Cohen & Co., recognized the need for scale repairs and improvements while assisting with the program at this year’s fair. Knowing that the Cohen & Co. Community Foundation supports organizations that make a positive impact in their communities, Justin took the initiative to apply for a grant on our behalf.

About the Cohen & Co. Community Foundation: Established in 1999 by the Cleveland-based accounting and advisory firm Cohen & Co., the foundation was created to commemorate the official retirement of firm founder Ron Cohen. The foundation supports civic, arts, cultural, and entrepreneurial nonprofit organizations through employee-driven recommendations and grants, helping make a difference in communities.

Thanks to Justin’s thoughtfulness and the generosity of the Cohen & Co. Community Foundation, our scales will be in tip-top shape and ready for Fair 2027! If you see Justin around, likely to find him moving pigs during the 4-H swine show and the auction, make sure you thank him! 🍀

Did you walk through our livestock complex and notice the uniform mulch bedding in the cattle stalls? Or maybe you sat in the livestock arena and noticed the beautiful mulch footing our exhibitors showed on!

Senior Market Livestock would like to give a huge thank you to DeMilta Sand & Gravel for their generous donation of mulch to our livestock program this year!

DeMilta Sand & Gravel is a local aggregate and landscape materials supplier right here in Lake County, and we truly appreciate their support of our exhibitors and livestock program.

Thank you, DeMilta Sand & Gravel, for helping make our livestock complex and show ring the best they can be! We are so grateful for your contribution to our program!

After an incredible week at the fair, it's only fitting that we take a moment to recognize someone who pours her heart into making our livestock program successful year after year.
Behind every show, every class, and every animal that enters the ring is someone who has spent countless hours making sure everything runs the way it should. From managing every animal that tags in, organizing and scheduling shows, answering questions, solving problems before most of us even know they exist, and making sure our exhibitors have every opportunity to succeed, our president does it all.

Her dedication goes far beyond what most people see. The early mornings, late nights, endless phone calls, paperwork, planning, and behind-the-scenes work often go unnoticed, but they are the foundation of everything we accomplish as a club. Her passion for our youth, our exhibitors, and our livestock program is evident in everything she does.

Regan, thank you for your unwavering commitment, your leadership, your patience, and the countless hours you give to this program. Your hard work doesn't go unnoticed, and we are so grateful for everything you do to make our fair week—and our entire year—a success.

Please join us in thanking our incredible president, Regan Binnig Demshar, for her dedication, selfless service, and the heart she brings to our livestock program every single day. We truly couldn't do it without you. 💙🐄🐖🐑
