It annually awards over $40,000 and is made possible by breeders who sponsor the event at $1,000 each. This allows heifers from their programs that are purchased by junior exhibitors to be eligible for the competition.
Note: The grand champion in the Purebred Simbrah and Simmental Shows were each awarded $1,500 and the reserve champions $1,000. The grand champion in the Percentage Simbrah and Simmental Shows were each awarded $500 and the reserve champions $250. Division champions also received checks, and trophy belt buckles were also awarded to each class winner as well as monetary awards deep in each class. The event has awarded more than $1.3 million in its 34-year history.
