What Beef Empire Days Inc does
Mission
To promote the advancement in the production and quality of beef as well as improve communications, continuing education and promotion of beef during beef empire days.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Cattle producers and feedyards bring cattle that they have raised to the live show where they are judged for weight, care, and health of the animal. The public comes to the event and is educated on the feeding processes, the care that goes in to raising beef cattle, and how the cattle compare to other area produced cattle. The cattle are then prepared for the carcass show that allows the public to view the actual beef provided by the animal. The public is again educated on the actual beef produced from the cow and whether it is good beef and the standards to look for in beef cattle. The cattle are judged by professionals in the beef industry and the best producer wins a prize.

This allowed us to highlight the many skills used by feedlot cowboys and cowgirls in their daily activity and helped us promote beef and our industries to the general public. We were also able to showcase local athletes in this sport that has been missing in our community for a couple years.

Parade floats are prepared to the theme of beef empire days and to show support for the area economy in beef. The parade has community leaders, state and federal leaders attend, and meet the garden city area residents. The parade also honors one area resident for their assistance in the beef industry as the grand marshall of the parade. It is followed with chuckwagons in the park - a community free feed highlighting our beef and dairy products and serving 2000 plus free meals.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2024 to 2025, from $156k to $201k (+29%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.
