Cattlemen's Roundup is an annual fundraiser that benefits Missouri's Cattlemen Foundation's scholarships, farm safety and youth education and the children's fund.  The Roundup features a great social event with a delicious dinner, auction and dance.

The 2006 Cattlemen's Roundup was held at the American Legion Hall in St. Joseph, MO on March 18.  The 11th Annual Cattlemen's Roundup has a reputation of great food and fun and even generates revenue to benefit the youth of Missouri.

In 2006, $23,000 was raised from the auction of at least 170 items from about 130 local businesses, national companies and other contributors.  The auction items ranged from quilts to farm implements with western art, toys and collectibles in between.

Cattlemen's Roundup was possible due to a partnership of great volunteers from the Andrew, Clinton and Ray County Cattlemen's Associations and many others.

Besides raising money, great food such as rocky mountain oysters, ribeye steaks and homemade potato chips always brings in the crowd.  After the auction, guests visited and danced to the live music from the Clement Brothers Band.
