The Board of Directors unanimously approved a new rule, which begins January 1, 2022: “All bulls (Shorthorn & ShorthornPlus) born January 1, 2022 and after will be required to have a genomic profile and parentage markers on file. In order to register any progeny with the American Shorthorn Association”. This means that regardless of service type, all bulls (Shorthorn & ShorthornPlus) used for breeding need to be genomically tested (currently, this is the 100K test but could be subject to change according to Neogen standards in the future). This pertains to AI sires as well as pasture sires/clean up bulls. The rule only affects bulls born after Jan 1, 2022, so this rule won’t really come into play until their progeny are born, late 2023 or 2024. Please be aware that AI sires still require the 3 genetic conditions as well – TH, PHA, and DS. deadline

The ASA will be hosting a 150th Anniversary social to honor past Presidents and past Builders of the Breed. This social will take place on Saturday night, November 12th, after the Deck the Stalls Junior Fundraiser.

royal family. Not sure I know how to act in this situation other than just be me. While respecting the ways of our neighbors across the pond, we will tour areas where the Shorthorn breed was founded. These conferences/tours are always interesting as we find that most Shorthorn breeders have similar issues around the world. It has been a busy summer to this point. That is good – it means things are happening in the Shorthorn breed. The message I want to leave you with is the power of our breeds’ family atmosphere. Other breeds admire this comradery and respect that this is shared among Shorthorn members as “The Family Friendly Breed”. This carries over into many aspects of the success of the breed. It was a topic of conversation during the ASA Board’s strategic planning session. It is a way of life and we need to make it a priority to keep it a part of our breed. Believe me, it is there at every level, junior shows, open shows, commercial acceptance, and the purebred ranks. Yes, we have good cattle designed for the industry, but we have even greater people, with a Family Friendly Atmosphere. That’s the difference!

Thank you to the Shorthorn Breeders who made the 2022 150th Herd Book issue a huge success! I also want to say a big thank you to the Shorthorn Country staff, especially Amy Sampson, who single handily put the issue together. This is one of our largest Herd Book issues in some time and it is very well done. I think this July 2022 Herd Book issue will be competitive in the Livestock Publications Council breed competitions for the special issue division. Congratulations to all in making the Shorthorn breed look great! This issue of Shorthorn Country features the results of the National Junior Shorthorn Show and Youth Conference held in June at the American Royal in Kansas City, MO. Boy, it was some show. We had a record number of cattle exhibited, over 750 head were lead through the ring in Kansas City during a week of fun, festivities, and competition. More than 450 exhibitors participated in the activities of the week. There is so much happening at this event that it is just impossible to keep up with it all: numerous contests such as Speech, Quiz Bowl, Team Sales, Team Fitting, Photography, Graphic Design, Arts & Crafts, Written Cattle Knowledge Tests, Career Development, Poster, Beef Cookoff, and Showmanship. This event is way more than showing cattle, but we always grade the event by the number of cattle shown. I believe it is about the juniors and their families. They are the show and they become the customer for the event. Without them, there is no event. These families receive well over 1,000 awards during the week for their competition in all these activities. There was also the election of new Junior Board Members and the retirement of those who have served their terms. Folks, these young people are the future leaders in our breed, agriculture, and the great ole USA. I have the privilege of watching these young people grow from juniors into special young adults. The National Junior Shorthorn Show and Youth Conference has been voted the most enjoyable for the last two years. After being part of this and watching it throughout the week my hat is off to Shelby Diehm, Director of Junior Activities and all the ASA staff, and the AJSA Board members who made this year’s event, maybe the best ever! I think you will agree when you see the coverage of this event in this issue of the Shorthorn Country. Your ASA Board of Directors and staff met for three days after the Junior National for a strategic planning session under the leadership of Dr. Tom Field and Bryce Schumann. Many topics were discussed and graded for importance. The ASA Board rolled up their sleeves and went to work looking at the future of the ASA. This group is as dedicated as any Board of Directors you could have. They worked in harmony to find answers and possible solutions for you, the membership and breeders, of this great breed of cattle. The results of this activity will be shared in the near future giving a solid direction for the future of our breed. There is still work to be done as staff and board members work together to provide a solid future for the Shorthorn Breed.

As I write this month’s article, I am preparing for a trip to England and Scotland for the World Shorthorn Conference. This is where leaders from around the world share knowledge and ideas about the Shorthorn breed and its breeders. We will have the honor to attend the Great Yorkshire Show and possibly be greeted by a member of the

When you’re setting your destination into your Google Maps on a road trip, often you will be given multiple routes to get to the destination. Options include shortest travel time, least miles, or avoiding the toll roads and back roads. Even if you choose to ignore the guidance, it can be a helpful tool when heading to a new place. Much like directions to your destination, there are often several ways to land at the same end point when we are calculating selection indexes. To dive deeper into this subject matter, we’re going to make a U turn and go back to the basics of selection indexes to get a better grasp of the harder stuff later in the journey. Selection indexes are essentially a complex algebraic equation with weights of importance placed on every EPD included in the index. These indexes are based on economic factors in certain production scenarios; the weightings of an EPD trait are not arbitrary. An index is usually expressed in a unit of dollars. Comparing two bulls for an index, the higher figure is projected to produce more revenue for the operation when he is used in a breeding scenario like the one the index is designed for. Situations that indexes are constructed for usually center around a commercial cow herd with a specific end point or marketing goal (replacement females, feeder steers, retained ownership, etc.). In a seedstock situation, these indexes find value in helping the genetic provider (YOU) produce cattle better suited for the commercial customers in those production scenarios.

American Shorthorn Association produces a trio of indexes for members to use in their breeding programs. The $Calving Ease index ($CEZ) is designed to identify genetics that excel in eliminating calving difficulty in heifers. Our $Feedlot index ($F) is constructed to help commercial producers find the bulls that will best work for their herds in a strictly terminal operation, focusing on growth and carcass quality. Finally, $British Maternal ($BMI) aims to identify the Shorthorns that are best suited for commercial breeders in a situation where they are retaining their own replacement females.

terminal marketing, so it’s logical that growth is a driver of $Feedlot. With Bull 1, you get good growth with above average carcass values, creating value all the way through. Bull 2 is unique that his high CED is a bonus to him (CED factors in because we must have live calves to get them to grow in the feed yard). Growth is good on that bull, and carcass is acceptable. The growth data on Bull 3 are his selling point, adding pounds (and dollars) to a carcass that may not necessarily excel for quality on the grid. For cattle to rank highly in the $Feedlot metric, higher growth EPDs are important. Being elite for growth and carcass isn’t necessary, but if your bull is weaker in one area, he better be stronger in the other to be a top end $F bull. Our final chart (on the next page) brings all six bulls used in this article together to compare their $BMI and $F values. You’ll notice that the high $BMI bulls don’t all translate to high $F cattle, while the high $F cattle look like stronger $BMI cattle as well. That’s likely due to the growth component factored into $BMI for the steer mates. One important takeaway from this exercise is the making selections based solely on a selection index can be just as detrimental as making selections based on a single EPD. You may love Bull A’s $BMI, but if your customers have any market for selling or retaining feeder steers, he’s not a good option for fitting that niche. It’s still necessary to study the component traits of an index to make sure the bull you’re looking at is fine-tuned to meet your breeding goals.

Much like developing a ration to feed your calves, there are multiple ways to get to the same outcome when using selection index technology in your program. While the ingredients may all be the same, the proportions and amounts can vary, all while still getting your cattle to the desired endpoint. I want to take the time to dive further into this concept, so below are some examples of how not all $BMI and $F are created equally. We’ll study how these bulls’ genetic profiles don’t necessarily look the same but can produce the same outcome from a revenuegenerating perspective or index value. equal $BMI when you study these three sires. Bull A excels in calving ease, solid carcass, and high milk, while also being low enough growth to not be penalized for (likely) larger mature sized cows. Bull B’s value in a $BMI scenario is largely in siring calves that will bring the most value at weaning through his high growth genetics. And Bull C is a combination bull that has good growth data, high milk, and solid calving ease. Obviously, these bulls take three very different paths to the same destination. With a more complex index like $BMI, there’s going to be multiple paths to the same answer. Remember, while $BMI does focus on aiding the rancher that is keeping his own females, it does not abandon the steer mates to his heifers. That is why you see growth and carcass traits involved in $BMI. A bull’s peak value may be in making top-class daughters with minimal regard to her brothers, or he may sire good females while siring killer feeder calves. Both possibilities are viable options to generate similar financial returns to the operation.

The 2022 National Junior Shorthorn Show & Youth Conference was truly “Out of This World.” It was a hot but exciting week in Kansas City, Missouri, as more than 460 juniors gathered to exhibit more than 720 entries for the largest junior national yet! There are a lot of factors that are required to make sure the junior national is a success. As soon as one is over, we start planning for the next. Fundraisers, calling and emailing donors, sending out pledge letters is ongoing throughout the year to raise enough money for all the junior national activities. But one of the biggest factors during the week is the people that assist in making everything runThesmoothly.firstthanks we need to give is to all the breeders who donated to the Red, White and Roan Club or donated a lot in their sale for the Royal Society Club. We also had many other junior national donations from corporate businesses or breeders including level donors and buckle donors. The Shorthorn Youth Development Fund continues to grow with donations that will provide opportunities for the juniors. Thank you to Missouri and Kansas Shorthorn Associations for your help raising money, gathering goody bag items, contest judges and more. We truly appreciate all you did beforehand to make the week successful. You also provided many volunteers during the week to assist as needed. The big lifesaver being the equipment drivers who spent many hours in the heat getting everyone upstairs with their tack efficiently. Thank you to the volunteers who gave their time to make sure the events ran smoothly. The state advisors have a big responsibility in stalling their state and making teams for contests plus keeping their states in line. The contest judges donate their time at the show evaluating the juniors for just a thank you. Thank you to our NJSS office staff, Jim and Bev Freed. We found out this year they have been to 35 junior nationals and plan to go to many more. They are the smiling faces you see when you visit the office with a question, signing up for cornhole or old pros showmanship, bought a show shirt or ASA apparel and anything in between. We appreciate the help they have given us for many years, we couldn’t do it without them. If you ever talk to them, you know how much they love the junior association and juniorThanknational.youto the rest of the American Shorthorn Association and Shorthorn Country staff for all the assistance leading up to NJSS as well as everything you do while we are at the show. It takes a team to make sure we are successful, and I am lucky to have each one of you on that Thankteam.you to the junior board. You spend many hours planning and fundraising to make this event happen. You work hard and walk many miles during the week. You keep the junior members best interest in mind and are engaging with those junior members. There is a reason we call you the “best board.” I am so proud to serve as your youth activity director and can’t wait to see what you will do next year! And finally, thank you to the entire Shorthorn family. It is no mystery why we stake the claim on being the familyfriendly breed. Anyone who attends the National Junior Shorthorn Show can see that it is true. The show wouldn’t be possible without the many exhibitors and their families. Your continued support is so important to our growth as a breed and the success of NJSS. I love this job and look forward to many more years with the ASA and Shorthorn family. Be sure to mark your calendars for June 18-24 in Des Moines, Iowa, as we gather at the Shorthorn Kingdom.

Thanks for Being Out of This

From last summer to now, I watched many juniors throughout the country win shows, awards, scholarships and even see them thrive in other breed organizations. Watching our juniors be recognized for their achievements makes me feel so proud to know them and see them grow while a part of our organization.Butwhatdoes all of this mean? Being proud for kids I may only see once or twice a year? Watching cattle win I may not have seen in person? Saying this may seem like a broken record, but after this Junior Nationals, I can really see why we are the family breed. Although people may not know it, I have been touched by every family and every junior I have interacted in my time with the AJSA Board of Directors. From the kind words of encouragement, to hugs and tears, the people of this association know how to make you feel special. Speaking on behalf of the rest of the board, I know they feel the same way too.Again, on behalf of the board, we thank you for attending such an amazing Junior Nationals. It wouldn’t be right not to thank the people who made it possible. I extend a great appreciation to the donors, staff members, volunteers, the American Royal Association, Missouri and Kansas Shorthorn Associations and the families and juniors that attended thisAsyear.President I look forward to leading this group of individuals on the board, as well as the juniors of association. You are all the reason why I am here today, serving an amazing group of people and fantastic breed. I’m excited to form new relationships with breeders and further industry relations through this role. There is nothing I would rather do more than paint myself green to get smiles and laughs from the kids that warm my heart.Here’s to the next year of countless memories, shows and friends. Juniors, here is to another year of making us proud to be a part of the Shorthorn breed. Here’s to Iowa in 2023. =

American RecipientsFoundationShorthornScholarship bySaraFrost

Lyle and Katharyn Dewitt Memorial Scholarship: This $1,500 scholarship is sponsored by the Shorthorn Foundation and awarded to high school seniors or college freshmen based upon Shorthorn involvement, grades, need and participation in other activities. This year, Reagan Smithers was awarded the Dewitt scholarship. Smithers is daughter to Jason Smithers and Noelle Flesner from Pittsfield, Illinois. She plans to attend the University of Illinois where she will major in Biology. “’Cattle.’ The word that captures my attention and makes me immediately jump into someone’s conversation when I hear it. No matter how boring the conversation is, I will be interested in it and have something to say because of how passionate I am about the show cattle industry.” Smithers explains, “When I was a little girl, most kids my age would ask for a puppy as a pet. I asked for a calf to show. I was always let down until I was old enough to be in 4H. In the meantime, I would help my older sister, Kameron, wash and work on her heifers and steers. In her last show season, I remember the moment that my heart stopped as the judge slapped the back of her Shorthorn steer when he chose her as the Reserve Grand Champion Land of Lincoln at the Illinois State Fair. I was so proud of her accomplishment, but it was also a team effort. I was always the helping hand in the makeup area before she took her first step into the ring. The second I was able to show with the Jesse M. and Jennie S. Duckett Memorial Scholarship: The Jesse M. and Jennie S. Duckett Memorial Scholarship is a $1,500 award for a high school senior or college freshmen, based on recipient’s involvement in agriculture, educational background, ACT score, and high school or college GPA. Brandon Barr was honored to receive the Dewitt Scholarship. Barr is son to Jeff and Jill Barr from Xenia, Ohio. Barr is currently attending Wilmington College where he is majoring in Agricultural Business.“Agriculture is the most important part of my life right now, and it will continue to be for the rest of my life. Agriculture impacts me at all points of my day. I start out by going to classes and labs at school, and during those classes, I am always learning about agriculture with both old and new concepts and ideas. I head home on the weekends and get ready to head up to the farm and take care of our herd of cattle. I wash my show calves just about every day, feed our growing herd of Shorthorn cattle, and complete whatever odd jobs need to be done. I am always working on various projects and plans to improve our farm.”

Barr explains, “Showing cattle takes up a lot of my time during the weekends and especially in the summer, as I am very

Fox is currently a freshman at Iowa State University, majoring in Animal Science. “Throughout my life I have been heavily involved in multiple agriculture experiences. I started my involvement by growing up showing livestock, mainly cattle. Then it began to expand and grow more, throughout elementary, high school, and now parts of college I was/am heavily involved in 4-H and FFA at local, state, and national levels, as well as being heavily involved within the beef and shorthorn industry.” Says Fox, “Whether it was competing showing livestock, reciting the creed for FFA, or going on those trips with your breed association, it has all helped me to grow and truly understand the benefits of being involved in an agriculture background and the opportunities it had to offer those who choose to stay involved.”

Applicants wrote an essay on “The Value of the Whole Herd Reporting Program to the Shorthorn Breed.” This year, Tyler Loudon was awarded with the scholarship. Tyler is son to Tim and Karen Loudon, from Creston, Iowa. He is planning to attend Oklahoma State University and major in Animal Science and Agricultural Business. “Cattle showing is a family experience. My parents both showed livestock growing up. I have been fortunate to travel to many states and participate in contests and shows. What I didn’t know would happen is that I would have the opportunity to meet and work with so many outstanding youth and adults.” Loudon says “I was recently elected to the National Junior Maine-Anjou Board. It is an honor to serve and work for the youth that elected me to this position, and I only hope that I can make their journey in the livestock industry as fulfilling as mine.”

“Throughout my life I have been heavily involved in multiple agriculture experiences. I started my involvement by growing up showing livestock, mainly cattle.

Emily Bollum is the recipient of the Charles B. Leemon Memorial Scholarship this year. Bollum is daughter to Cory and Mary Bollum of Austin, Minnesota. Bollum is currently attending Iowa State University and majoring in Agricultural Business. “My involvement with Agriculture started because my family operates a 5th generation farm, where we produce purebred shorthorn cattle and row crops. From a young age, I have been helping on the farm. I watched as my parents and brothers worked with the cattle and exhibited them at different shows.” Bollum says “This made me so excited for when I could show alongside them. Ever since my first show, my passion has continued to grow, and I have gotten more involved with our operation and the agriculture industry.

“All I have ever known is Shorthorn cattle. It is the only National Junior show we exhibit at and the only breed or breed composite that I have shown. Shorthorns have sparked my interest in the beef cattle industry from an early age.” Said VanderWal, “It is my intention to remain part of our family’s operation after college. My major is Applied Human and Sports Physiology which could lead to a Physical Therapy career, but my involvement in our family farm (which is nearly a century farm now) and desire to remain in agriculture will not be diminished.”

Mike Dugdale Memorial Scholarship: This Scholarship was created in the memory of Mike Dugdale, who had a large impact on the shorthorn breed before his passing in 2006. Dugdale took part in the first importation of Irish Shorthorns in the late 70’s and early 80’s. Dugdale held positions for both the Iowa and Nebraska State Shorthorn Associations, and was elected to the American Shorthorn Association board of directors in the early 80’s. The Mike Dugdale Memorial Scholarship is presented to a collegiate upperclassman that is an active AJSA member with a sincere interest in bettering the beef cattle industry after college. The $1,500 Dugdale Scholarship was presented to Lane VanderWal, the son of Kevin and Kari VanderWal from Volga, South Dakota. VanderWal is currently attending Wayne State College in Wayne, Nebraska and majoring in Applied Human and Sports Physiology.

Showing cattle became my passion and something I looked forward to every year.” Don Longley Memorial Scholarships: Don Longley was a past publisher of the Shorthorn World magazine. He followed in his father’s footsteps and continued the empire of the Shorthorn magazine. He insisted on his staff attending every Shorthorn show, sale and conference possible in order to bring Shorthorn breeders the most accurate and expansive information of the time. Longley worked tirelessly to promote the breed, and his greatest delight was to publish a journalistic superior book. The Shorthorn World was never the same after the Longley era, with more than 50 years of father-and-son work towards the magazine and breed.

John Miller Scholarship: The $2,500 John Miller Scholarship is awarded to collegiate upperclassmen (including trade schools) that are active AJSA members with an emphasis placed on those having some interest in making Shorthorns more viable in the commercial cattle industry. The Miller Scholarship was awarded to Faye Smith this year. Smith is daughter to Troy and Sommer Smith, from Walton, Kansas. Smith is currently attending Kansas State University and majoring in Agricultural Communications and“TheJournalism.involvement that I have been able to experience in the agricultural industry has been one that I can say I am proud of. Throughout my life, I have been dedicated to being a proud beef producer and advocate by joining many youth organizations and job opportunities to connect me to the beef and greater agricultural industry” Smith said “Alongside my family, we own and operate MBAR Shorthorns. A purebred and appendix Cow-Calf operation that is focused on breeding genetics that is practical, and profitable to our customers in our area. Utilizing the maternal traits of the Shorthorn breed, alongside the carcass traits of the Angus breed, we have been able to capitalize on our market in south-central Kansas. Black cattle sell for an increasingly high premium, so being able to utilize both breeds’ genetics for a complete product has been extremely rewarding. Alongside this, I have been able to see the utilization of high-quality genetics on our purebred cattle to continue practicality in the show ring.”

competitive and travel all over the country to show. Even though I am out of 4-H, I am now an advisor, helping the young kids in my club with their beef projects. With a few more years left to show at Junior Nationals and the Ohio BEST shows, I am certain that agriculture will continue to be a major part of my life.”

Outstanding Junior Board Member Scholarship: The $500 Outstanding Junior Board Member Scholarship was created to honor a Junior Board Member who has gone above and beyond in their service to the American Junior Shorthorn Association during their time in office. This recipient has been selected by the members themselves in acknowledgment of their hard work and determination.

Sheridan is daughter of Brian and Emily Fox, from Kanawha Iowa. Sheridan is currently a freshman at Iowa State University, majoring in Animal Science.

As we transition into using new technology we need to remember it is our job to protect the traditions to make sure we still have the industry we know and love. We can be open minded, but that never means we shouldn’t be cautious or ask a lot of questions. The world will continue to need new ideas, but let’s never forget why God made a farmer.

Again this year, the Champion Senior in the Prepared Speech Contest, presented their speech during the awards banquet Friday night. Below is a copy of Lauren Mohr’s winning speech.

Why God Made A Farmer 2022 A world filled with possibility and time where a dream can become a reality. 1879 the first light bulb was invented. 1927 the first TV was displayed in San Francisco. 1983 the first handheld mobile device was available. Technology has changed the way we eat, sleep, breathe, and survive; and in the livestock industry it changed the way we function to make us more efficient. We now can ship semen across countries, freeze and flush embryos from the females that are at the top of our herds, and even create duplicates of what we deem the “ideal” animal. However, the question still remains: When do we cross the line? I would like to discuss two major points. Number one, the concerns with cloning our animals and number two, the issues with lab grown meat. The first successful cloning was with Dolly the sheep in 1996. An exciting time for the livestock industry, but it’s when we step back and truly evaluate it, some truths are quickly uncovered. When cloning occurs the ends of the chromosomes called telomeres shrink. Now why is this a concern? Telomeres are responsible for repetitive DNA sequences and protect the chromosome from becoming frayed or tangled. As cells continue to duplicate, the telomeres become smaller and smaller, until they disappear. This results in the cells inability to continue to multiply. Dolly the sheep lived for only 6 years when the average lifespan of a sheep is 12. Now applying this to the beef industry the average life expectancy is 15 years. Now if this was a cloned animal it could be expected to be cut in half. Now, take into account that the average heifer reaches sexual maturity around 1 year of age that would mean, statistically speaking there would only be 5 progeny off one animal. Cloning our animals could cost producers productivity. However, there are some positives to take away from this process. Cloning can save some animals from going extinct and allow people to make duplicates of National Champion cattle, but there are still many disadvantages to this practice. Animals have an increased risk of deformities to major organs including the heart, liver, kidneys and brain. It is up to us as an industry to decide what is best, but at this point in time, the disadvantages seem to outweigh the advantages. Now obviously as an industry we have to stay open minded to continue making positive change. Take Temple Grandin for example; she was unwilling to be told no when she had new ideas to decrease the stress on animals during the harvest process. She became an icon in the livestock industry and helped improve the meat quality because of her new design for animal harvesting plants. She helped the animals be less stressed and because of this we now have a higher quality product to feed the country. We can’t be close minded and need to explore new ideas. We have to be aware of the fact that when we start to tamper with nature, we are opening the doors to far larger risks than we realize. Now one of the more recent experiments was in 2013 with the creation of lab grown meat. It was manufactured to combat the concern for an increased population, less land for traditional farming, and potentially not having enough food. This meat is created by extracting a muscle cell from a beef cow and using technology for it to divide and produce more. To some this may seem like a good idea but this process is very expensive. It currently costs around $200-400 per 2 lbs of beef created. Whereas, beef from the grocery store can cost on a rough average 3-6 dollars per lb. Lab grown meat doesn’t seem very realistic for the common household. However, I would also like to share a personal concern with this new product. If lab grown meat were to pick up speed and take over the industry, traditional beef production would be a dying field. Farmers would lose businesses and the general population would lose even more touch with the agriculture industry. Today one of the largest issues in the agriculture industry is the lack of education for the general public. Most people don’t know where their food comes from, and it is something we are already trying to fix. If we start limiting the amount of cattle produced and have less farms, this creates a far larger gap between farmers and the “average Joe”.

Now, I am not saying we should close the doors on more research on cloning animals or lab grown meat but rather saying, we need to be cautious and take the time to evaluate results and study for years upon years to make sure that we don’t implement anything that could result in negative repercussions.

The American Junior Shorthorn Association continued their annual sock drive this year by partnering with City Union Mission in Kansas City to donate 7,235 pairs of socks! City Union Mission has been helping men, women, and children since 1924 by providing food, clothing, beds, and safety for those in need. City Union Mission is committed to sharing the gospel and meeting the spiritual, physical, and emotional needs of poverty-stricken and homeless individuals in the Kansas City area. AJSA members from 26 states donated socks this year which were separated into individual states and then divided by the number of exhibitors from that state to determine a percentage per exhibitor. This year Alabama was the winning state for the sock drive with 119 pairs of socks donated per exhibitor!

The speech contest is a great way for juniors to be able to gain experience learning how to improve their public speaking and writing skills. This year, the juniors were given topics to create a speech that answer the following questions for each age group.

Contest by SheridanFox

Prospector I “ Why are Shorthorns out of this world?”, Prospector II “ What are some technologies you use in your herd?”, Intermediate “Advantages/ Disadvantages of using technology in the cattle industry?”, Senior “How can high technology be detrimental to the industry?”. Being able to dive deep into these questions and learn more about our industry as well as the beef industry gives these juniors the chance to advance their knowledge and present it in a professional manner. The senior speech winner presented the winning speech at the annual banquet.

Participants are asked to create an item that displays, and advocates for the Shorthorn breed. Judges are asked to score based on the criteria of quality of craftsmanship, originality, artistic appeal, and Shorthorn promotion. Attendees enjoyed the displays of the projects for the week of junior nationals, and some juniors even sold their projects after the conclusion of the contest.

It’s clear to see that the juniors of the Shorthorn breed don’t lack in terms of their creativity. Juniors found the best and most creative way to advertise and educate in the poster and graphic design contests. This year, the intermediate and senior divisions in the graphic design contest set out to create the best advertisement for this year’s celebration of the 150th Anniversary. While the older divisions took on this task, the younger divisions found a way to promote their farms and NJSS with a promotional poster.

I know being from a small town there is nothing I love more than to sit down with family and friends at a good dinner and to catch up on life. Everyone is always looking for a new recipe to cook beef and this year’s juniors gave us just that; a lot of new recipes to try. This year we had 16 teams from multiple states. Each team of competitors had to prepare a cut, from the beef short loin, and present it to judges, with a copy of the recipe, as well as a short skit. Even though the skit is not worth a lot of points, you can always find each of the teams going above and beyond to make it a fun and engaging atmosphere. The various recipes and presentations were extremely creative. The judges and I had the opportunity to enjoy everything from shish-kabobs on a beach setting, to a steak in a downtown Kansas City restaurant. If you were wondering, they also got to finish it off with a little something sweet. I always enjoy being part of this event. The amount of hard work and dedication the competitors put into it is so rewarding and not to mention the food is always a bonus.

Lassie Tea & Lassie 101

Shorthorn Lassie enthusiasts came together in Kansas City, Missouri, where we gathered for the annual Lassie 101 and Lassie Princess Hour on the morning of JuneWe23.started the morning with the Lassie 101. This event allows State Queens and Princesses to interact with members of the National Shorthorn Lassie Association. Discussion took place about the responsibilities of a Lassie Queen. We also talked about the proper way to lead in classes, handing out awards, and gave tips on make-up and hair, along with other advice on being a Lassie. Lassie 101 also helps build the relationships among the Queens and the Princess before the shows in the days following. It is a great honor to serve as the National Shorthorn Lassie Queen and Alternate Queen and highly suggest that any and all State Queens run to be a National Shorthorn Lassie, it is an experience that you will never regret! After the Lassie 101, we changed gears and held the Lassie Princess Hour (Lassie Tea). Around 40 young girls and state queens representing several states were in attendance. Each girl that attended received a sash to decorate, a tiara, a cookie, along with an ear tag to decorate as well. All the State Queens and Princess got a goodie bag that had a travel size hair spray, teasing comb, and chapstick to take with them as they are some the essentials of being a Lassie Queen. After, the girls got to partake in some fun activities! These included coloring pages, puzzles, games andDuringcrafts. this fun filled hour, the room was definitely filled full of laughter! We are so grateful for the Queens and Princess that attended and helped with all the games, crafts, and puzzles. It always great to see so many young girls, parents, and supporters make the Lassie Tea a success this year.

By showcasing their talents and being actively involved in numerous events throughout the week of the National Junior Shorthorn Show. These individuals rose to the top of their division to claim the title of High Point Individual. As the Youth Activities Intern, I had the privilege of meeting many of these individuals and hearing about their passion for the Shorthorn breed and their involvement within it. Exhibitors can pursue this honor by participating in contests to gain points towards the High Point Individual Award which is based on the number of contests a Jr. member participates in along with how they placed in those contests. Points are then totaled at the conclusion of the contests and the top five individuals for each age division are named. The list of these individuals is as follows:

Shorthorn Sidekicks

Shorthorn Sidekicks is a program that takes place at Junior Nationals for children who are not yet old enough (ages four and under) to compete in contests of the show. This year, Shorthorn Sidekicks was hosted on two separate days. Day one consisted of decorating cookies. Sidekicks day two consisted of learning about feed rations. They learned all about the importance of feed rations and even made their own consisting of trail mix. The purpose of this program is to help the sidekicks get excited about coming to junior nationals each year, especially when they are old enough to compete in the show and contests. We hope everyone enjoyed the 2022 Shorthorn Sidekicks program and we can’t wait to see you next year! We would like to give a special thank you to Judy Alden for her help in coordination Sidekicks this year. We couldn’t have done it without you! =

One of the most coveted awards for Prospector exhibitors to receive at the National Junior Shorthorn Show and Youth Conference is the Red Coat Award.This award is given to a junior member of prospector age who goes above and beyond the expectations by participating in contests and being actively involved all week. The junior board interacts with the exhibitors throughout the week, and they select a recipient of their choice to be honored at the awards ceremony. The 2022 recipient of the Red Coat Award is Alayna Caulfield of Bradley, S.D. Alayna was selected as the Grand Champion Prospector I Showman.

Lily Growing up, I have attended many Junior Nationals but never really understood what it took to make the show happen. The 2022 National Junior Shorthorn Show and Youth Conference is an experience I will never forget. I had the pleasure of serving as the Registrations Intern and loved being able to work with not only the exhibitors but the amazing ASA staff. It was such a fulfilling experience to finally be able to put names to faces after going through and organizing all the entries for the show. The Shorthorn Breed is a breed that supports one another and welcomes each other with open arms. I am truly blessed and honored to have been able to work with such great people and meet so many new faces that made a lasting impact. I have to say I think this was one of my favorite Junior Nationals and I am so grateful to have had this amazing experience. I want to say a big thank you to everyone who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make this show a huge success. I know I had an “Out of this World” time and I hope everyone else did too! Congratulations to all exhibitors and I hope everyone had a successful week!

Interns Views on NJSS

Thank you to everyone who made my first Junior Nationals an intergalactic adventure and for allowing me to be a part of such an amazing association!

Sara The 2022 Junior Nationals is something I will never forget. I did not know what to expect and was not disappointed one bit. It was exciting to prepare for Junior Nationals, learn new things and grow along the way. It was an honor to be selected as the 2022 Communications Intern, being able to work with my two great fellow interns, the ASA staff, the Juniors, and = their families. Seeing all the hard work that goes into preparing and creating this show was amazing and I believe that I will take a great deal with me when I return to school. Although there were stressful moments, getting to walk around, capture memories and moments in the showring and outside of the ring. One of the greatest parts was being included in the Shorthorn Family, being able to meet juniors and their families, seeing the support everyone has for one another and always being there. It was truly amazing to be part of and I will never forget my time with the American Shorthorn Association.

Moon Toss byLilyGisclair

One of the many highlights of the week is the pairing of Junior Mentors and Apprentices. At the beginning of the week, they are to complete a list of tasks given to them. One of those tasks includes selling a specific item to raise money for the next year’s National Junior Shorthorn Show and Youth Conference. Sullivan Supply and the American Junior Shorthorn Association (AJSA) pair up to donate a chute for the winner of the toss. Going with the Out of this World theme, they were asked to sell stress moon balls. Before the Awards Ceremony, those who purchased a stress moon were asked to line up in Hale Arena for a chance to win a chute worth over $800. These small moon balls were thrown into a water bucket; the winners from each round continued to toss them in until there was a definite winner. Congratulations to Sam and Jace Parker of Oklahoma, the winners of this year’s toss. Thank you to all who contributed and we hope you enjoy your new chute! = Pictured L-R: Lily, Shelby, Sara, Regan.

Regan My experience at Shorthorn Junior Nationals was truly “Out of This World”! Having never attended a Junior Nationals before I was nervous about meeting the expectations set for organizing contests, preparing scripts, taking results, and actively engaging with every junior member I met. However, after six days of new experiences, I was blown away by the amount of genuine excitement and acceptance I felt from everyone I encountered! My favorite part of serving as the Youth Activities Intern was being able to work with the Jr. Board and see events that we have been working towards for weeks come together. It was awesome to be a part of such a closeknit community that the Shorthorn Breed is and see the support everyone shares for one another regardless of the competition they’re competing in. I’d also like to give a shout-out to the Jr. Board Candidates and all the free food they provided us interns during the week!

A nomination committee that was selected by ASA staff to evaluate the senior exhibitors MondayWednesday to be voted on by NJSS exhibitors. The nomination committee evaluated the senior exhibitors on the following traits: hardworking, general involvement, role model, interaction with breeders/juniors, represents/ advocated for Shorthorn breed. After the nominees were announced on Facebook, their fellow junior exhibitors voted to select the winner. This year our winner was very deserving of this honor as shown by the characteristics demonstrated throughout the week. Miller is the son of Neal and Jennifer Smith from Pendleton, Indiana. He currently attends Purdue University where he is studying Animal Science Agribusiness. He is very passionate about This year was the first ever old-timers’ showmanship put together by the junior board of directors and it was beyond that of a success. A total of $1,300 was raised! During the old-timers’ showmanship the ring was full of comical outfits and laughs as everyone waited to see who got the golden walking cane trophy. We are so thankful for the individuals who came out to participate. It was great to see all the parents, who always preach wisdom and techniques to their own children, come out and set an example for the younger generations. I think it’s safe to say some were a little rusty, maybe more than they wanted to admit. Let me take a minute to recognize the Shorthorn breed and the people in it! He was elected to the AJSA board of directors in 2020 and currently serves as vice-president. Miller has been to every National Junior Shorthorn Show since he was just one year old. He loves participating in contests especially beef cook-off and team fitting. The Smith family raises Shorthorn cattle for show as well as for their feedlot to supply their local meat market with Shorthorn beef. Miller enjoys working alongside his dad and brother with cow work and in the show barn every chance he gets. He plans to return to the family farm after graduation to help with growing row crops and the cattle business as well as pursue a career in ruminant nutrition.

Junior Herdsman Award

Old-Timers Showmanship

“I feel honored to have received this junior herdsman award. I was fortunate enough to be nominated with two other amazing and deserving candidates. This award means so much to me as a young person trying to build our family’s brand and place in the show cattle industry. I want to thank everyone who voted for me this year,” Smith said. Congratulations to Miller Smith on be being selected as the 2022 Junior Herdsman of the Year. those who received showmanship honors. Mrs. Cindy, no one deserved the golden cane trophy more than her. She has probably mastered the showmanship skills and techniques through her camera lenses. We appreciate all she does for the AJSA family. Mr. Kane Aegerter, received the ‘Most Improved Showman’ Award. He is still a young lad and not as seasoned, apparently, as Mrs. Cindy. Next year, in Des Moines, we expect to see even more participation in this new competition. I wish the best of luck to all the parents out there that plan to polish up on their showmanship skills for next year.
