🌲Planning, Paddling & Building Stronger Leaders! 🛶

The National Junior Santa Gertrudis Association Board of Directors is in Broken Bow, Oklahoma, for its 2026 board retreat!

These young leaders are working hard planning for the year ahead, exchanging ideas, strengthening their leadership skills, and building closer relationships as a team—with a little outdoor fun along the way!

We are proud of their commitment to the NJSGA and excited to see their plans for the upcoming year come to life!

As we look back on an unforgettable week at the National Junior Santa Gertrudis Show, we’re reminded that the banners and buckles tell only part of the story.

The Star 5 Female Show, Bull Show, Donated Heifer Show, and Bred & Owned Heifer Show showcased more than exceptional cattle—they highlighted the dedication, sportsmanship, friendships, and countless hours of hard work put in by our junior exhibitors and their families.

Congratulations to every exhibitor who stepped into the ring. Thank you to our donors, sponsors, volunteers, judges, and supporters who made these shows possible. The memories made, lessons learned, and relationships built will last long after the final class.

Here’s to celebrating the cattle, the kids, and the people who make the Santa Gertrudis family so special. ❤️🐂

“Through Every Step”

Some moments in the show ring are about more than ribbons and banners. They’re about trust, dedication, and the countless hours spent working together. Through every early morning, every practice, and every challenge, there’s a bond that can’t be measured.
