CATTLEMEN’S DAY EVENTS
Cattlemen’s Day Events kick off Thursday, December 29 at 9:00 am with the Ranch Replacement Heifer Show in the Ranch Replacement Cattle area.
Join us at 10:30 am in the Grandstand Arena for the Arizona Working Ranch Horse Competition. This event is chaired by Kyle Best. Feel free to contact Kyle at 520-954-1205.
The Ranch Replacement Heifer and Commercial Bull Show and Sale is co-chaired by Clay Parsons and Rick Lehman of Marana Stockyards, Marana, AZ. This event will provide an opportunity for Southwestern Cattle Ranchers to showcase the best replacement females and breeding bulls representing their genetic program and its superior offering of cattle that are Southwest raised and rock footed. These cattle will work in tough southwest environments and produce calves each year that fit real world agriculture. All cattle will be subjected to a rigorous pre-show sift to guarantee a standard of perfection and soundness required by any cattle buyer. Call Rick to get more information at 602-481-3879.
