Junior National State of Mind possible. So, make sure that you are keeping an eye out for those changes so we can help make this year the best one yet! I strongly encourage juniors to try and be as involved as you can whether it is participating in contests, mentorapprentice, asking questions, or helping others in need. These are all ways to meet new people throughout the industry and maximize your experience as well as others around you. I am very excited and hope to see everyone there! On another note, I would like to congratulate our advisor, Shelby Diehm on being selected Best Junior Activities Director in the 2021 Best of the Barns! This is an award that she is very deserving of due to everything she does for us as a junior board and association. I would also like to congratulate everyone on yet another year of being selected as the most enjoyable junior nationals. This is something that would not be possible without everyones help from fundraising, to organizing the event, it really means a lot! With that I cannot wait to see everyone in June. Till then have a great spring and work on those contests! =

After a cold winter for some of us, we are finally starting to inch towards some warmer weather! Especially after the rather chilly trip for some to Oklahoma City for the 2nd Cattleman’s Congress. This year the Cattleman’s Congress was a hit yet again and I would just like to take a second to say thank you to everyone that has helped make it such an enjoyable event for everyone. I know that I really enjoyed spending some time with people within our amazing industry while celebrating our 150 years! As we get start to the new year there are so many things happening! For many calving season is in full swing so there are new baby calves on the ground showing great potential for juniors and breeders throughout the industry. This has always been one of my favorite times of the year because as the days get a little less cold, it means that we are getting much closer to National Junior Shorthorn Show! In just a few months we will all be back together in Kansas City, Missouri, for a junior national that is going to be “Out of this World”! This year our junior board has decided to make a few changes to make the schedule flow as well as
Do good and good will come to you!
