Anna, Natalie, and Madison Adam of Alliance pose with their new Box Butte County Fair “Raise the Roof” shirts. The t-shirts sell for $15. The shirt design was by UNL freshman Hannah Kesterson, a long time member of the Box Butte County 4-H program. The shirts are the fundraising project of the current county fair royalty.

Realized revenue will be used to help pay the remaining debt on the new livestock barn in Hemingford.

Anna is an 8th grader at the Alliance St. Agnes Academy, while Madison is a 5th grader at SAA. The shirts will be on sale through this year’s fair, which will be held August 3-11, and are available now from the 2012-13 royalty: Ashtyn Shrewsbury and Ellie Applegarth of Alliance and Kelsy Wood and Jaleen Forgey of Hemingford.
