We caught up with Ms. Echo Bartels, exhibitor of the Reserve Grand Champion Market Lamb at the 2024 Colorado State Fair. Learn a little more about Echo below!
What is one thing you try to do that sets you apart?
The biggest thing I do at home that sets me apart is my drive to always be better, we alway walk back into the barn and work harder for it, at the shows you’ll never see me in anything other than my Black polo, it’s my “signature shirt”
What was the hardest thing you had to learn about showing sheep?
The hardest thing for me was learning how to show each sheep differently, and as I got taller learning how to reposition my body was challenging.
Who has helped you the most as a showman?
My parents have helped me the absolute most, they’re always by my side and have never questioned this dream. Over the last year Jake P Richardson and Tyler Jenkins have helped me tweak things, and been an unbelievable support system. I am very thankful for them
