While many of us are sitting down with friends and family enjoying Thanksgiving this long weekend, the best teams in Canadian cattle penning will be in Calgary for their association’s national finals.

More than 400 riders are competing at the event in the Agrium Western Event Centre.

The Canadian Team Cattle Penning Association’s National Finals are the biggest team penning event in the country.

There's over a half-million dollars worth of cash and prizes up for grabs.

The competition starts at 8 a.m. Sat. and Sun and the finals go Monday afternoon at 3:30.

The public is welcome to attend, and admission throughout the weekend is complimentary.
