Shift in Texas Major Steer Show Schedules

[chambero]

I may be late in figuring this out, but Houston (I'm sure) and San Antonio (I think) have both shifted their steer shows one week later this year.

Fort Worth - Jan 30 - Feb 3
San Antonio - Jan 20 - 24
Houston - Mar 12 - 16

If I recall correctly it has something to do with the new school tests?

Is it true that san angelo is between ft worth and san antionio this year?

 

[The Show]

I know Houston changed up their heifer show too. It's always been during spring break week and now its a week earlier and a day shorter.

Our school is giving the TAKS test the same week as the Houston jr heifer show...

 

[JSchroeder]

Did the change the testing process to something that involves more days than just 3-4 concentrated in one week?  I thought that's what I was told but didn't pay too close attention.

So I have a calf going to Fort Worth. Are all of those show days? How would I find out what day he showed on? A link would be nice. I need to find out what they are weighing him in as I guess. Sorry its early for me to be thinking.

go to www.fwssr.com and look under exhibitors..drop down to livestock exhibitors and then to arrival/release...

I guess I worded that wrong. I sold a calf that will be shown at Fort Worth, and may want to watch him in class. Better?

 

[JSchroeder]

Yeah, of course, the way you worded it before seemed strange.  I kind of wish that face wasn't auto inserted.
