Stock show goes on despite coronavirus

The show must go on.

That old cliche is true in theater and music or other entertainments in which par­ticipants encounter difficult or unexpected challenges and still have to perform.

And that old saw is true for Future Farmers of America and 4H members and their an­nual show.

The Collin County Junior Livestock Show began last Friday and continues through Saturday at the Myers Park and Event Center in McKinney. Protective measures against COVID-19 are in effect and the number of attendees is being kept to 1,000 a day, said Wade Shackelford, general superin­tendent for the show. The show requires people wear masks.
