“Colorado has a proud agricultural heritage. It’s part of my own family history and continues to shape our state today,” said Colorado Lt. Governor Dianne Primavera. “We are excited to bring unique Colorado license plate configurations to the Stock Show this year to give more people an opportunity to wrangle a plate they love while supporting grant opportunities for organizations that serve Coloradans with disabilities.”
The State of Colorado said proceeds from the auction will fund grants for ideas that improve the quality of life and independence of people with disabilities, as well as contribute to the National Western Stock Show Scholarship Trust.
More unique Colorado license plate configurations are up for auction at coloradoplates.org.
A tradition since 1906, the National Western Stock Show is part-rodeo, part-livestock show and part-fair and brings hundreds of thousands of people to the National Western Complex each year for a celebration of our state’s agricultural heritage.
The National Western Stock Show has one of the world’s richest regular-season professional rodeos, one of the country’s largest horse shows and Colorado’s largest agricultural trade show. The Stock Show welcomes attendees from 48 states and 32 countries and will drive an estimated $171 million in economic impact to Colorado.
The 118th annual National Western Stock Show and Rodeo runs until Sunday, Jan. 21, at the National Western Complex and Denver Coliseum at Interstate 70 and Brighton Boulevard.
