2025 BEEF/DAIRY STEER TAG IN AND WEIGH DAY
We will be tagging and identifying market beef and Dairy Steer projects on Sunday, March 9th, 2025 at the Boulder County Fairgrounds- Barn C. Animals must be halter broken and have a halter on to smoothly go through the identification process. Please sign up HERE.
Please review the available slots and click on the button to sign up. Please select one slot per trailer up to 3 head of cattle. If you have more than three heads, you must select another adjacent time spot. Example: 6 steers in one trailer = 30 minutes reserved together. Sign up with your full name and the number of animals. Please be on time for your chosen time slot. Members who are late will be accommodated as possible (you may have to wait.)
Bring $5 cash per animal tag.
2025 AC & MQA LIVESTOCK TRAINING
All first-year members or first-year Senior(14yrs or older) participants in a livestock project (including all market, breeding, dairy, poultry, rabbit) (excluding dog, cat, cavy, and horse) are required to attend an MQA training to be eligible to show or sell at the Boulder County Fair and Colorado State Fair. This year Boulder County will be hosting an in-person opportunity for members to complete this requirement.
There will be other trainings across the state, as well. Other shows may have requirements to take the training more frequently or to take a YQCA national training. It is the youth’s responsibility to know what the shows require. To compete at the Boulder County Fair, youth need to take the MQA training once as a first-year member, and once as a 14-year-old member or older. Please plan to attend our local training and RSVP ahead of time. Register HERE.
