When registering at the AgriLabs booth, convention participants designated which state association would receive a grant if their entries were drawn. John Grande, Martindale, Montana, designating the Montana Stockgrowers; Paula Coon, Beng, Washington, designating the Washington Cattleman’s Association; and Debra Enis, Vinita, Oklahoma, designating the Oklahoma Cattlewomen were the three winning entries drawn during the convention.
“Asking beef producers to select an NCBA or American National Cattlewomen state affiliate, or the ANCW Foundation, to be part of the scholarship grant programme adds an additional element of fun to our NCBA convention scholarship program,” says Charlie Higdon, business unit manager, AgriLabs. “As a result, an additional $1,500 is in the hands of associations who will use this money to provide scholarships to three young people involved in the beef industry.”
