The North American Junior Red Angus Event provides educational activities for Red Angus youth breeders. The NAJRAE offers programs giving youth the opportunity to learn and practice business skills in the beef industry, and engage in leadership positions. The program emphasizes and recognizes those youth who show initiative and interest in owning and raising Red Angus beef cattle. This annual event serves as a forum for junior Red Angus youth and their families, breeders, and other beef enthusiasts to come together to compete, and to exchange ideas, knowledge, and technology.
