Celebrating Legendary Progress with Passion, Innovation and Achievement The Angus family heads to Fort Worth, Texas, Nov. 6-8 for the 2021 Angus Convention.

Passion, innovation, and achievement represent the Angus breed. Angus breeders, beef cattle enthusiasts and feeders of the world are all passionate about the work they do day in and day out. In celebration of the past and to continue legendary progress, the American Angus Association invites Angus members, commercial producers and beef industry professionals to the 2021 Angus Convention and Trade Show hosted in Fort Worth, Texas, Nov. 6-8.

The 2021 Angus Convention will be three days of making connections, finding solutions and being inspired to foster operational growth and personal leadership. Being innovative is second nature to cattlemen as the industry strives to raise the highest quality product in the most efficient and effective manner. When passion and innovation are coupled, achievement is bound to take place.

After a year of virtual events, the power of in-person events will be a highlight of this year’s Angus Convention. Cattleman can network with old and new friends throughout the trade show, educational sessions and the convention tours. Attendees will have the opportunity to meet and mingle with others during several of the receptions featuring Certified Angus Beef® (CAB®) brand meals.

When attendees aren’t participating in hallway conversations, there will be several educational sessions taking place throughout the three-day event. From cattle handling to the latest in genomics, no topic is left uncovered. Take advantage of learning from industry professionals during Angus University-sponsored breakout sessions and watch hands-on education by attending a session in the cattle demonstration area.

Providing tangible information is a goal for the Association; however, listening to keynote sessions will inspire passion in cattlemen to achieve more and innovate their business.

“Regardless of whether you are a member or a not, there is value for everyone,” says Mark McCully, American Angus Association CEO. “I invite you to enjoy the company of great friends while listening and learning from the most respected industry professionals.”

ics topics with cattlemen in an understandable way,” said Mark McCully, chief executive officer for the Association. “We are excited to have her progressive, energetic mind leading our innovation at AGI.” Retallick-Riley has been an asset to AGI as the genetic and genomic programs director for AGI, where she coordinated research and application strategies for genetic and genomic technologies. Her education in animal breeding, combined with her practical cattle experience gives Retallick-Riley a unique skill set and perspective to strategically advance AGI and the tools it provides to cattlemen.

“I’m excited for the opportunity to further advance AGI’s mission of providing the best tools and information possible for today’s breeders,” she said. “Innovation is happening at a rapid pace and AGI is poised to lead the industry.”

A Wisconsin native, Retallick-Riley did her undergraduate work at University of Wisconsin-Madison. She followed with a master’s degree in Animal Breeding from Kansas State University and is currently in the final stages of completing her Ph.D. program, also from Kansas State University. Before coming to work for AGI in 2016, she worked for the American Gelbvieh Association.

Growing up in the Angus breed, Retallick-Riley was on the National Junior Angus Association Board of Directors. She is a frequent presenter on cattle industry programs, actively involved in the Beef Improvement Federation serving on their Board of Directors and has served as the past chairman of the Ultrasound Guidelines Council.

“Kelli has a passion for genetic improvement and the success of Angus breeders,” McCully said. “The future of AGI is in good hands.”

Retallick-Riley will take the helm of AGI on June 28 as current AGI president Joel Cowley resigns to accept the chief executive officer role of Calgary Stampede. Cowley previously served in various leadership roles including president and chief executive officer at the Houston Livestock Show and RodeoTM.

Kansas Junior Angus Association KJAA Member Alexandria Cozzitorto serves as NJAA Chairman of the Board

During the 2021 NJAS closing ceremonies, six new board members and officers were announced.

Raising and showing cattle is a big component of the National Junior Angus Association (NJAA). However, the leadership skills developed through the NJAA are second to none.

One area to grow as a leader in the NJAA is through serving on the junior board of directors.

During the closing ceremonies at the 2021 National Junior Angus Show (NJAS) in Grand Island, Nebraska, as six members retired, six new board members and new officers were announced on Friday, July 16.

two are supported by Angus Foundation Director Josh Jasper of Nicholasville, Kentucky; Communications Director Walker McDermott of Wiota, Iowa; Education Director Cutter Pohlman of Hereford, Texas and Events Director Garrett Schuering of Thompson, Missouri.

The newly elected board members are talented individuals who are passionate about the Angus breed all they can do to serve the Association and its junior members. The six new members include J. Gordon Clark, Gretna, Virginia; Kathryn Coleman, Modesto, California; Kinsey Crowe of Eaton, Ohio; Avery Dull, Westminster, Maryland; Marcie Harward, Richfield, North Carolina and Nicole Stevenson, Joliet, Montana.

Running for the National Junior Angus Board is an intense, thorough process that starts months before the NJAS with an application and interview. During the week of the NJAS, candidates meet with members and delegates from across the country. Once elected, members serve a two-year term; the first year on the board of directors and the second as officers of the junior association. Over the two years, members will travel to shows and conferences, plan educational events for junior members, promote the Angus breed while assisting the National Junior Angus Association in other membership outreach.

At the closing ceremonies, the new officer team was announced. Alex Cozzitorto of Olathe, Kansas, and Eric Schafer of Owaneco, Illinois, will lead the team as the Chairman and Vice-Chairman, respectively. Those

Academically, two of the three scholarships were awarded to Angus members. Past Miss American Angus, Eva Hinrichsen, Westmoreland, Kansas received the Roy Wallace Scholarship for her commitment and service to the beef cattle industry. Hinrichsen is a junior at Oklahoma State University where she is an animal science undergraduate student who is highly involved in agricultural and university activities. Maci Mueller, a Nebraska native and University of California-Davis graduate student, was the award winner for the Baker/Cundiff scholarship. Mueller wrote the winning essay titled “Gene Editing as a Tool for Genetic Improvement of Beef Cattle.”

Aside from encouraging the younger generation, BIF presents a Pioneer Award to honor those who have paved the way and made lasting contributions to the improvement of the beef industry. During the symposium, Angus breeder Galen Fink of Randolph, Kansas, was one recipient of this award. Dave Nichols presented the award and shared that Galen has “never been afraid to take risks, dream big, and look for opportunities that no operations have done.”

Additionally, Dr. Gene Rouse and Dr. Doyle Wilson were the other recipients of the BIF Pioneer Award. Dr. Rouse and Dr. Wilson played an integral role in the research and implementation of ultrasound scan data on breeding cattle. Their work made profound impacts on the way cattle are evaluated today.

The Association congratulates Galen Fink, Dr. Gene Rouse and Dr. Doyle Wilson for their leadership and service to entire beef industry.

Nominating a BIF Seedstock Producer of the Year and a Commercial Producer of the Year was also a highlight for the Association when both Angus nominees were named finalists. Jim and Missy Moore of Moore Cattle Company in Charleston, Arkansas, were nominated by the Association for the Commercial Producer of the Year Award. The Moores believe in raising high caliber cattle to increase demand for quality beef and a memorable eating experience. Their philosophy is: Anything worth doing, is worth doing right. Woodhill Farms of Viroqua, Wisconsin, is also focused on quality and beef improvement as they were conominated as Seedstock Producer of the Year by the Association. Brian McCulloh manages Woodhill Farms and has been highly involved over the years with the Angus breed and beef cattle industry.
