Committee Involvement Important for AGA’s Success The following is the list of American Gelbvieh Association (AGA) members who have been nominated to serve on various AGA committees. Committee appointments are effective through April 1, 2019. Thank you in advance to these members for their service on the committees and their dedication to the AGA. Committee members are appointed to serve on committees by the AGA president through expressed interest by members, staff, recommendations and board of directors approval. The AGA annual committee meetings will be held during the 48th Annual National Convention in Nashville, Tennessee, November 28-30, 2018, and are
open to all AGA members. Additional committee meetings are held, as needed, via teleconference throughout the year. Any member in attendance at the properly assembled AGA committee meeting my participate in the discussion of the committee and offer motions for approval, even though they are not an official member of the committee. AGA’s current strategic plan calls for an increase in member participation in committees. The goal achieved in 2018 was to have 10 percent of each committee’s roster be composed of members not having served on that committee the prior year.
