YORKTON - If you are in the cattle business, and have a particular interest in Angus cattle, then you might want to sign up for the East Central Saskatchewan Angus Pasture Tour.

Erin Yewsiuk said the provincial Angus association typically has a tour each year, and “this year it’s up in our area,” which hasn't been for some time. “It’s been quite a while from what I understand.”

Over two days – Aug. 9 and 10 – the tour will make stops at nine purebred Angus farms. Day one the tour will head basically north, and day two will swing south of Yorkton, said Yewsiuk.

“It will be some good cattle, good food and good company,” she predicted.

The tour will be visiting Parkwood Farms, PK Angus, HS Angus, Dual E Cattle Co., Double C Red Angus, Crescent Creek Angus, Triple H Red Angus, 4K Angus, Black Ridge Angus and Nu-Horizon Angus.

In addition, other breeders will have some show stock on display, a key bull, or a cow/calf pair, noted Yewsiuk.

The first day will wind-up at Tuffnell Hall for a traditional Ukrainian supper and entertainment by Quick Dick McDick.

The second day will wind-up at the Dysart Hall where a ‘Verified Angus BBQ Competition’ will provide the food. Six angus producers will be teamed with one of six acclaimed BBQ pit-masters in a competition to promote angus beef.

The tour will start via bus from Yorkton each day, although people can take their own transportation too.
