Because of the incredible generosity of our buyers, sponsors, and supporters, the “Countdown to Abilene” fundraiser raised an amazing $171,475 for the Shorthorn Youth Development Fund and the National Junior Shorthorn Show!
This was a historic evening for our program, and we are beyond grateful to everyone who helped make it possible. Your support directly impacts the future of the Shorthorn breed and the opportunities provided to our junior members across the country.
