The June Cook-Off was born in 2004. It started out as the Colorado County Junior Livestock Cook-Off. This was meant to fund the Junior Livestock part of the Colorado County Fair.

The first 3 years didn't produce much funding, but a great group got together and changed all that. Fausta and a couple others began organizing the Cook-Off details and making sure the FFA was benefiting from this great event. This core team of promoters kept the FFA Alumni June Cook-Off going strong! We like to think it gets better with age!

​Today the promoters are Natalie James, Kim Kaiser, Dawson Kaiser, Fausta Kaiser and Samantha Thrasher.

​We plan on keeping the tradition successful, helping our community, building relationships with our cook teams and Having A Great Time Doing So! Join us in helping others and making a difference!
