Contest: Why are you Proud to be a part of Montana Ranching?
Why are you proud to be a part of the Montana ranching community? Big Sky Country has so many amazing things to offer! Our ranching and cattle communities are a huge part of the state’s heritage and tradition and we want to see why you are proud to be a part of that community! With National Agriculture Day being celebrated on March 18, there is no better time to share these stories.
Montana Stockgrowers Association is giving away THREE (3) copies of our book, Big Sky Boots (value of $45 each)! This coffee-table-style book makes a great gift for friends or a new addition to your home. Big Sky Boots is part of the Montana Family Ranching Series through the Research and Education Endowment Foundation, and takes the reader on a journey through a year in the life of Montana’s cowboys – through calving, branding, and shipping, and everything in between. Throughout pages of the book is an interactive experience with QR codes, which take the reader to videos of the featured ranchers with a quick scan of a smartphone.
Here is how to enter:
Submit your perspective of why you are proud to be a part of the Montana ranching community. Maybe it is preserving family traditions, celebrating your heritage, or making things better for future generations. You decide what that means to you!
There are three ways to enter the contest (pick one):
- photos with a 50-word description,
- video clips, at least 120 seconds long, or
- a written story, 100 word minimum.
Montana Stockgrowers Association will select a winner in each category after the contest closes, and each winner will receive a copy of Big Sky Boots! (Don’t forget to buy an extra copy for your friends and family at Easter!)
