Hey Everyone, I’m Kyle Greiman and I’m the Angus
representative on the Iowa Junior Beef Breeds Board. I’m
currently a freshman at Iowa State University and I’m
majoring in Ag. Studies.
As the new year begins so
does the new show season with the Iowa Beef Expo coming
up February 19th to the 21st. Be sure to check the
website soon for entries which will be due February
1st.Check-In will be the 19th from 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM
and a hamburger feed at 11:30 AM. Showmanship will also
be the 19th at 4:30 PM. Also a rule that has been
changed for the Expo is that there will be only one set
of side panels per county and be sure to read all the
other rules for the new show season because many of them
have been changed.
Hope to see you all at
the Expo!
Sincerely,
Kyle Greiman |
