Previous Tour Summaries: 2006 Tour (PDF)

August Long Weekend – July 29, 30, 31 & Aug 1
Saskatoon SK

This year Saskatoon area breeders are looking forward to hosting us for FUN, FOOD, GOLF and GREAT RED ANGUS CATTLE.

The Saskatchewan Angus Association will be hosting it’s Annual Summer Gold and Junior Show July 28-29, immediately prior to the tour. We hope that this will encourage more people to make the trip and take in both Angus events.

After the Gold Show ends, it is just a short trip from the SK Livestock Exhibition to the first stop on the tour – Ward’s Red Angus on Friday with the tour to start around 4:00. At Ward’s we will be able to look through other displays and enjoy a BBQ supper.

On Saturday morning we’ll make our way to Wheeler’s Stock Farms for breakfast and herd tour.

Then we’ll move on to Blairs.Ag for lunch and more tour.

The day will end at Wilbar Farms with a herd tour, bull calf Calcutta and supper.

Sunday is the day to enjoy a game of golf before making our way home on Sunday or Monday.

We certainly hope many will be able to come out a join us for a fun filled weekend.

Hotel or camping........ and group bussing will be available.
