In 1994, the Chamber marked its 75th anniversary with special activities at its annual meeting and throughout the year. The following year, 1995, brought another anniversary, this one celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Gateway Farm Expo.Gateway is now Nebraska's longest running agricultural equipment/services display show. Gateway is now independent from the Chamber and managed by a volunteer board of directors and KAAPA... Also in 1991, the Chamber's Agriculture Committee joined forces with the Nebraska Cattlemen Association to form the Nebraska Cattlemen's Classic. This week long event debuted with more than 400 head of purebred cattle being shown and sold from 11 different breeds. The Classic has become Nebraska's livestock showcase, producing annual sales in the millions of dollars and buyers and sellers from many states and countries.The Nebraska Cattlemen's Classic is still housed in the Chamber Center and is headed by Ronette Bush...
