Mark your calendars for Saturday and Sunday, June 29-30, and plan to attend the North Dakota Junior Beef Expo (NDJBE) at the Upper Missouri Valley Fairgrounds in Williston, ND. This fun-filled, multi-breed field day event is open to all juniors 21 years old and younger who are members of 4-H, FFA or a junior breed association. Saturday’s activities begin with registration at noon followed by the steer weigh-in and ultrasound scanning, where exhibitors will get a chance to learn more about what scan numbers mean and how they relate to profitability. Exhibitors will also enjoy a pizza party and all the fun and games that go along with it, including the popular Ag Olympics, which combines the well-known sporting event with an agricultural twist, and some educational keep/cull judging. The event is held in conjunction with the Western Star Regional Junior Heifer Classic held June 28-29. Both shows are sanctioned
