The CQ Carcase Classic not only provides a vehicle for Central Qld's cattle producers to showcase their product and benchmark against others, but also accumulates a small percentage of vendor's proceeds to be distributed to the competitor's chosen beneficiary.  In the past twelve years, the CQCC is proud to have donated in excess of $145,000 to local community groups.
