Fifty-seven years promoting beef — we “steak” our future on it! Join us as we celebrate the beef industry and all it means to our communities in the Great Beef Empire! There will be something for everyone!

Live & Carcass Show - iT ALL STARTED HERE!

The cattle begin arriving at dawn or before and the excitement level will peak by mid-morning when the annual  Merck Live Show takes center stage. Anyone with an interest in the cattle feeding industry is invited to be in the stands at the Finney County Fairgrounds.
