Dr. Meadows indicates that Bedford County benefits from over one-half of a million dollars in direct spending from the 3-day mule and donkey extravaganza. The show features over 200 classes and provides approximately $30,000 in prizes and premium money. The mule and donkey show has classes for large and small, gaited and non-gaited mules and donkeys.
