Australia’s country music capital will play host to the 2024 NH Foods Angus Youth National Roundup January 10th to 14th, when 166 Angus Youth members will descend on the Australian Equine and Livestock Events Centre.
Returning to January for the first time since 2020, the Roundup once again promises to provide competitors with a number of competitions aligned with cattle preparation, handling, showing and judging, as well as significant educational sessions and team building activities, designed to encourage and inspire the next generation to remain active in the beef industry.
Roundup coordinator, Toni Nugent said that while the essence of the Roundup will remain as is, the structure of the program has slightly changed, with the Roundup coming forward by a day.
‘The Gala Dinner will be held on the final night with the inclusion of awards presentations as part of the dinner. Thursday will be the NH Foods Joy of Eating Day, with our naming partner, NH Foods Australia’s Educational Day taking roundup participants through all aspects of the red meat supply chain, from the paddock to plate.’
NH Foods Australia is again partnering with Angus Australia for the naming rights for the Roundup and brings with them their knowledge of the full beef supply chain experience.
‘It’s wonderful to again partner with NH Foods for our 2024 Angus Youth Roundup. The team will share their expertise from across the red eat supply chain as part of the NH Foods Joy of Eating day, taking participants from the on-farm production, through to processing and the enjoyment of eating beef products.’
With the count down on and the finishing touches being added to the planning and the program, the 2024 NH Foods Angus Youth National Roundup Committee cannot wait to welcome the participants and their families and the many sponsors and supporters of this industry leading event.
‘We are looking forward to seeing everyone in Tamworth in January for the best Roundup yet, said Toni!’
