Lloydminster Stockade Roundup still a go
With many cattle shows going virtual this year, many shows have elected to go down that road. One of the exceptions is the Lloydminster Stockade Roundup, being held November 4 to 7. In its 42nd year and hailed as one of Canada’s premier livestock events, the four-day event will highlight purebred cattle shows including King of the Ring Bull Calf, Stockade Lady Heifer Calf jackpot shows, Junior events and the Supreme show, just to name a few.
New for this year is the Princess of the Prairies bred heifer showdown on Tuesday, November 3. For Angus enthusiasts the Stockade Roundup will be hosting the Saskatchewan Angus Gold show, working alongside the Saskatchewan Angus Association to provide a quality show. The Speckle Park breed is calling the Stockade Roundup home for their Homecoming 2020 Speckle Park sale on Wednesday, November 4.
Sounds like an opportunity to check out some quality cattle at a first-rate event and experience some Lloydminster Stockade Roundup hospitality. If you’ve never been, it’s worth going to!
