Cowgirl Confident Hands-On Ladies' Event Ticket - Spring 2026

Join us for our Spring '26 COWGIRL CONFIDENT EVENT!

Wednesday, 4/29, Thursday, 4/30 and Friday, 5/1

Cattle Cotillion Auction May Be Held Saturday, 5/2. Please watch for details.

Our Spring 2026 Cowgirl Confident Ladies' Event is an immersive, hands-on learning experience designed for women who want to grow their confidence and competence in cattle care, handling, and decision-making...whether you are new to livestock or looking to sharpen real-world skills.

Participants will rotate through interactive session using industry-relevant training tools, including our CCF Birthing Dystocia Simulator, Bovine Injection Simulators and additional hands-on learning focused on animal care, safety and management. These sessions are intentionally small-group and guided by experienced instructors to allow for questions, repetition and confidence building at your own pace.

This event isn't about watching from the sidelines...it's about stepping in, learning the why behind the how, and leaving with skills you can apply back home. Just as important, it's about connection - learning alongside women who value education, growth and supporting one another in agriculture.
