11 JULY – 14 JULY 2024
COOTAMUNDRA, New South Wales
The Herefords Australia Youth Committee invites all young beef industry enthusiasts to attend the 2024 Herefords Australia National Youth Expo. The 2024 event will be held at the Cootamundra Showground from Thursday 11 to Sunday 14 July 2024.
This event has been designed to give young people the opportunity to build their knowledge and understanding of the beef industry, in a safe and welcoming environment. Activities will target all age groups and experience levels, with demonstrations ranging from halter making and knot tying to practical demonstrations on feed milling and nutrient conversions. We have placed a strong focus on ensuring that the demonstrations are age appropriate, and that practical skills and knowledge will be able to be taken away from the event.
For those that don’t have access to a suitable Hereford animal, there will be loan heifers available. Simply select ‘Loan Heifer required’ in the entry form and leave the rest to us.
With an action packed program that includes loads of fun, networking, inspiration and plenty of cattle as well as an exciting educational program, guest speakers and competitions including Junior Judging, Paraders and Heifer Show – there is something for everyone. There are some fantastic prizes on offer as well as some great scholarship, competitions and award opportunities.
Keep up to date with everything on the Herefords Australia Youth Committee Facebook Page. Sponsorship opportunities are also available. This investment will provide your business with exposure to a target audience of young cattle industry enthusiasts, farming parents and industry professionals. Get increased brand recognition for your business by supporting this flagship event. Follow this link for a full copy of the Sponsorship Prospectus.
