Manitoba Livestock Expo Report Kyle Wright A big thank you to the sponsors and exhibitors for supporting the Limousin Show at M.L.E. Darren Carvey was the judge. There were 23 head entered in the Limousin Show. It was a big stepping stone with a Limousin Cow/Calf pair from Campbell Limousin winning the ALL BREEDS SUPREME SHOW.
PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Jay-Dean Smyth I would like to start off my words of wisdom by thanking everyone involved with the first Annual Advantage Limousin Sale. Art, Maria and family did a fabulous job hosting the sale. The catalogue was great and the sale itself ran with minimal bumps. Thank you to all of the producers, buyers and supporters. The weather was quite cold but it did not stop people from coming out and supporting the sale. The show road was quick and sweet. It was kind of nice to have it run so smoothly being so close together, just leaving us time to get some more work done around the farm before too much snow comes. Just a reminder that our annual meeting is January 4th in Brandon. It is a really important meeting to attend to have your say and see what is going on the breed. We are always looking for people to sit on the board. As a board we have decided to change up the Commercial Breeder of the Year Award to the Limousin Ambassador Award. As the industry is changing we thought it was time for something different. It now can be awarded to a person/family/farm/company that is a supporter/promoter of the Limousin breed in Manitoba. I hope to see you all out at our meeting. Have a safe and prosperous Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year!!! Thanks, Jay-Dean

Winter of 2013-14 is making it ’s mark across the country early in the season, with above average snowfall and below normal temperatures as I prepare this newsletter. Congratulations to all the exhibitors to Manitoba Livestock Expo and Agribition this fall and to the Manitoba Limousin Advantage Sale Committee for their commitment to the Manitoba Limousin Association and the success of their first annual sale. Thank you to Art and Maria Rodgers of Triple R Limousin for providing sale facilities and to Travis and Rilla Hunter of Diamond T Limousin for providing beef on a bun for lunch for the day. Mark your Calendars for January 4th, 2014 and make arrangements to come visit with friends and discuss the cattle industry with fellow producers. Be an active participant in YOUR organization, if we all do our small part we can promote and increase the demand for purebred Limousin replace ment stock right through to the retail level for our great cattle. The Manitoba Limousin Association has been active since the arrival of Limousin in Canada. They are advocates for commercial producer friendly policies, to representing and promoting on behalf of Limousin breeders, to business to business networking and education and community outreach opportunities. I encourage you to attend and be a voice and generally create more opportunity to help one another. Hope to see you at the January Banquet following the meeting! Suggestions, creative ideas, and constructive criticisms are always welcomed. Respectfully, Cher yl
