2021 Governor’s Charity Steer Show Returns to Iowa State Fairgrounds
This year, the annual Governor’s Charity Steer Show (GCSS) will return to the Iowa State Fairgrounds.
The event, which raises money for the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Iowa, will be held on August 14, 2020. Organized by the Iowa Cattlemen’s Association and Iowa Beef Industry Council, the GCSS has raised over $4.1 million to help provide a home away from home for families of children who are being treated in nearby hospitals. Ronald McDonald Houses are located in Des Moines, Iowa City, and Sioux City.
Twenty-four steers from across the state will compete for the championship designation, showmanship honors, and the People’s Choice award. The steers have been raised by Iowa youth involved in the cattle industry, and celebrities will accompany the young steer owners in the ring. Immediately following the competition, the steers will be sold at auction with proceeds going to the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Iowa.
The event will be held in-person on Saturday, August 14 at 4:30 p.m. in the Livestock Pavilion on the Iowa State Fairgrounds as well as broadcasted online through Walton Webcasting.
