The Roundup Wrap Up
The new year truly kicked off with a bang as 166 of Angus Australia youngest members converged in Tamworth for the 2024 NH Foods Angus Youth National Roundup, which took place January 10th to 13th.
Over four days, young Angus beef cattle enthusiasts from around Australia and New Zealand took over the Australia Equine and Livestock Events Centre (AELEC) and were most definitely kept busy participating in a range of activities from education sessions, cattle classes, junior judging, paraders to the chute to showring competition, a cooking demonstration with NH Foods Brand Partner Chef Jason Roberts and the crowd favourite Barnyard Olympics.
The event concluded with a Gala Dinner which showcased the Roundup Special Awards presentations and the Angus Foundation Auction, which raised a phenomenal $49,000. The money raised from the overwhelmingly generous support of the bidders on the evening will go directly to the establishment and implementation of professional development, research and educational opportunities designed encourage and assist the involvement of young people in the Australian beef industry.

A big thank you goes out to the Roundup Organising Committee, led by Coordinator Toni Nugent and Chair Annie Pumpa, the sponsors, ballot cattle providers, volunteers and parents, without whose support the Roundup would not be possible. The final thank you goes to the wonderful participants for joining Angus Australia for the 2024 Angus Youth National Roundup.
