Junior Shorthorn enthusiasts gathering from 24 states competed in the 2020 National Junior Shorthorn Show & Youth Conference in Abilene, Texas, June 22-27.

Kase Glazier, who will be a sixth grader at Lomega this fall, was among them.

Not only did the juniors compete with their animals, but had the opportunity to compete in thirteen individual, team or state contests.

Competitors in the Promotional Poster/Graphic Design Contest were challenged to gain the general public’s interest in the Shorthorn breed.

The objective of the contest was to promote and/or inform about Shorthorn breed.

Entries were judged based on eye appeal, neatness of construction, clear message, clever verbiage, and use of space along with the overall appeal of the poster.

Glazier finished fourth in the poster prospector II division for contestants 10-12 years old.

“This event is more than just a cattle show, it prepares these youth for future life experiences with the contests and added activities. The National Junior Shorthorn Show brings together more Shorthorn producers and exhibitors than any other event we have,” said Montie Soules, the executive secretary of the American Shorthorn Association.
