These young individuals, who are deeply rooted in the cattle industry, will showcase their finest cattle while adorned in eye-catching costumes, adding an extra layer of excitement to the competition. The event serves as a platform for these exhibitors to shine, demonstrating their expertise in cattle care and handling while entertaining the audience.
Lane Manning: A Celebrity Judge with a Heart for the Industry

Manning, who grew up immersed in the cattle industry, brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the event. His deep connection to the beef industry, coupled with his vibrant personality and love for community, makes him the perfect choice to preside over this special occasion.
Community Service and Fundraising: The Cornerstones of the Event
The Celebrity Showdown goes beyond entertainment; it’s a beacon of community service and fundraising. To participate, BEST exhibitors must raise a minimum of $100 for Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) of Central Ohio, an organization dedicated to providing a home away from home for families with children receiving medical treatment in Columbus, Ohio. This act of kindness sets the stage for a truly meaningful event, where the joy of competition is intertwined with the spirit of giving.
A Live Auction: A Showcase of Generosity
The evening’s festivities culminate in a live auction, where attendees have the opportunity to bid on a variety of items, including unique experiences, exclusive merchandise, and gift certificates from local businesses. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to RMHC, further amplifying the impact of the Celebrity Showdown and making a tangible difference in the lives of families in need.
Supporting Ronald McDonald House Charities: A Commitment to Caring
