Charolais EXPRESS July 2018
The Nationals, A Celebration of Australian Charolais
Caity Cox, CCJ’s Charolais, Willowbank Qld was the recipient of the 2018 Garrett Youth Scholarship. Caity is seen with her certificate, Scholarship of $2,000 to assist with her tertiary education and President Brendan Scheiwe at the National Dinner.
The National Charolais events held in Dubbo in mid July were a tremendous success taking seasonal conditions into account. Quality was right on target with a reduced number of cattle on display reflecting the season. Ninety five head paraded in the Pickles Auctions National Showcase, 18 steers contested the Clipex Silver Calf championship and 80 youth participated in the National Youth Stampede. Over 160 members and friends attended the annual dinner where an auction including feature lot Colinta Minnie (P) raised $12,660 to develop our Charolais Youth. The outcomes of an extended youth program can only have benefits for our society and industry. Finally the appreciation of every attendee and Charolais Society member should be directed toward our awesome sponsors. Our major sponsors, Allflex, Pickles Auctions, Fairfax Agricultural Media and Clipex, plus our other sponsors and contributing members have enabled the four events to run at the level one wants their national to project. A sincere thank you to each and every sponsor for their contribution. To all exhibitors of cattle, thank you, to Deearn and Hayley processing behind the scenes and the committee, great job on another breed success story, lets look forward to 2019 and bigger and better events. regards Colin, Breed Development Manager
