Sitting in the historic Canadian Western Agribition boardroom with Kylie Beck and Shawna Fuchs was cool. Surrounded by pictures of the founding board, the past presidents, past CEO’s and the Marketing posters/Logos of all 50+ years of show history.
We talk a little about the foundation of Agribition, its first board (Chris Sutter, Barry Andrew, Bill Small, Ken Halverson & Gordon Hollinger), some of the changes over the years and did our best not to get lost in the weeds of our favorite stories and times. Talking about Agribition with anyone that has attended just puts a smile on your face and always stirs up some of those great memories.
The 25th anniversary of the Beef Supreme is a big topic for CWA 2024! 25 years of winners and fun. 25 years of excellence and unique recognition for the best of the best. Being an Agribition Beef Supreme Champion is as close to Show Ring Immortalization as you'll find in the business.
The future vision of Agribition is strong with a great plan behind it. President Shaun Kindopp wraps up the episode talking about just that.
Remember to check out the new Junior Steer Jackpot, Friday November 29 in the John Deere Sale arena at 2:00pm. Over $7,000 in cash will be given out.
