108 ISSUES This is the 108th issue of The Showtimes Magazine!
COVER The Showtimes has designed every cover of our magazine since July 2013! Plus, we've designed covers for other publications in our industry as well!
When we start working on an issue of The Showtimes, I’m never sure what the finished magazine will look like. Each issue starts with an empty folder and blank pages. As the magazine folder fills up and the pages come together, I’m always in such awe of how a specific issue can capture a moment in time. As this issue took form, I loved how much meat it had to it. From full coverage of our Blackout show and numerous shows that took place this Spring, to highlighting our new Hall of Fame Members, Junior Nationals and top industry genetics, sales and products, the magazine has substance. I love that. It leaves me looking forward to the Junior Nationals where it will be distributed! Speaking of Junior Nationals, The Showtimes is excited to be the Official Media Partner of the 2026 AJSA National Classic in Grand Island, Nebraska as well as the 2026 Charolais Junior National in Hutchinson, Kansas. We look forward to seeing you at multiple shows this Summer and coverage from all of the Junior Nationals thanks to our Showtimes Summer Road Crew! If you see us around the barns or show rings, be sure to say hello. In addition to just the magazine, one of our favorite parts of Junior Nationals is working with the various shows on their designs and sign and banner printing! From backdrops to ring wraps, anytime we can add The Showtimes Effect to a
show it is special to us.
Contact us today to be a part of your event! As we head into
028
the Summer, we also look
forward to one of our favorite issues of the year...
the State Fair Edition! The
deadline is July 10th. Reach out to us to be a part of the issue that goes to all of the State Fairs and offers the most exposure leading into Fall Sale Season! If you need us to design your ads, we can help you with that as well as take ads that are camera ready. The upcoming months are sure to be busy, but none of us in the livestock industry know anything different! It’s a blessed life we all are able to live. Just like the magazine, all of our lives start as empty folders that we fill up in various ways each day. Make a point to fill your folders with substance. See you on the road!
