Show Ring

The Wilkinsons have been exhibiting cattle together as a family, since Sydney was a baby. It is something they all enjoy -- not just the displaying of their work, but also catching up with the lifelong friends they have made over the years. They routinely show at the Colorado State Fair in August and the National Western Stock Show in January, and, if time allows, they try to make it to the American Royal, as well. When younger, Sydney was active in the AGJA and the family traveled all over the United States, attending the AGJA's Junior Classic each Summer.

NWSS 2024

After one year of going to both the Cattlemen’s Congress in Oklahoma City for the AGA National Shows AND the National Western Show in Denver, we made the decision to stick with what was best for us – the National Western.

So, in 2023 and 2024, we took pens of both bulls and heifers, and pulled a few out to show up on the “Hill” in the Open Show as well. The new facilities are amazing and we just love being there. And so thankful for Sydney’s work – since her return to the Ranch, we have gladly turned over the job of breaking and preparing the show string.

This year, we took 2 Pens of Three – A March pen of Balancer bulls and another March pen of heifers. We also had a few head that we took up on the Hill. Our April Hombre son, BNW Lunch Box 3112L was Reserve Division Balancer Calf Champion.
