Hoofin’ It

Hoofin’ It Carries on a Long-standing Tradition

Since 1953, the Oregon Cattlewomen have been participating in the advancement of the cattle industry through promotion and education. The 5K/10K “Hoofin’ It To Beef Fit” is an extraordinary event hosted by people who love the land, animals and nature.  It’s a race that offers a taste of what the Oregon Cattlewomen do statewide in public outreach throughout each year.  Proceeds from the race help purchase a steer that is auctioned off at half time of the annual East/West Shriners Football Game.  A phenomenal amount of money has been raised in past years for the Shriners Hospital for Children from the steers provided by Baker County Cattlemen and Cattlewomen.

Helping Oregon Kids in Need
