CHAROLAIS

Preparing Breed Leaders at Charolais Junior National

Six fun filled days of contests, fellowship and Charolais cattle.

From the time I arrived at Fonner Park in Grand Island, Nebraska for the Opening Ceremony of the 2022 Charolais Junior National until I left for home on Friday, June 24th, I was so impressed with every aspect of the leadership development program we call “Charolais Junior National”. When I entered the show arena, I witnessed young people from 31 states prepared to enter the arena representing their great state in the Opening Ceremony. I proudly watched as a group of Charolais exhibitors of all ages unrolled a giant-sized version of Old Glory that nearly covered the entire showring. I proudly stood with my hand over my heart as a talented young man sang a moving rendition of the National Anthem. I then listened as nine-yearold Haxton Hoffman masterfully played a patriotic hymn on the bagpipes. What an inspiring way to kick-off the beginning of six fun filled days of contests, fellowship and Charolais cattle shows. At the conclusion of the Opening Ceremony, I enjoyed a delicious steak dinner prepared by the Hospitality Committee,

a variety of events. I decided to start the day in the washrack visiting with exhibitors of every age. I was impressed with the fact that most of those individuals washing animals appeared to be exhibitors, with some help from parents, other relatives, and a few friends. While I did not witness any water fights in the washrack, I later heard several young people say the water fights are some of their favorite traditions at Charolais Junior National, especially when the temperatures are more than 90 degrees. After visiting the washrack, I meandered through the cattle barn striking up conversations with exhibitors and parents alike. Monday morning in the cattle barn was a great way for me to start the week. Later Monday, I was asked by a member of the AIJCA Junior Board to serve as a judge for one room of the Quiz Bowl Competition. I looked over the questions and felt comfortable listening to contestants answer these questions and determining if their answer was close enough to the written answer to be

If I were to grade the hospitality committee on the scale used in schools, they would most definitely receive an A+ for going above and beyond to be sure we were well fed and content during our week in Grand Island. part of the larger Planning Committee, who prepared 1-2 meals per day for 600 – 850 people per meal. Like most of the people around me, I was impressed by the size of the steak and the amount of food we were served. As I entered the large dining room with round tables filled with people for as far as I could see, I was blown away by the size of the crowd. By the end of the week, I realized how important the daily meals were for creating the family atmosphere I heard so much about prior to arriving in Grand Island. If I were to grade the hospitality committee on the scale used in schools, they would most definitely receive an A+ for going above and beyond to be sure we were well fed and content during our week in Grand Island. I was also very impressed with the hard work, dedication, and servant hearts I witnessed in the members of the planning committee. Their attention to detail from helping exhibitors unload, planning daily events and the Thursday evening banquet that fed over 800 people, was impressive at every level! On Monday morning, I found myself without a specific assignment. Many of the exhibitors were busy competing in

acceptable. After arriving a few minutes late for the judges’ orientation session, I soon found myself sitting close to the contestants and listening intently as the Quiz Bowl was off and running. As the competition commenced and we proceeded towards the final rounds, I realized what I thought was an easy job had quickly become more difficult as the complexity of the questions increased and so did the answers. I was very impressed with the preparation and knowledge of the Quiz Bowl teams. On Tuesday morning, Miranda Hoag, Communications and Events Coordinator at the AICA, and I initiated our plan to identify junior exhibitors and adults we could interview to learn what people enjoy most about attending Charolais Junior National. Our first interview was with Mr. Richie Oakes from Taloga, Oklahoma. From the time spent in the barn with his grandkids, to serving as beef superintendent at the Oklahoma Youth Expo and Oklahoma State Fair, he is devoted to providing opportunities for youth to grow and develop life skills. As the day progressed, Miranda and I met and interviewed numerous Charolais enthusiasts from across the country. These interviews

The AICA is the official registry for Charolais and Charbray cattle in the United States. Charolais cattle were first brought to the U.S. in 1936. In 1957, the American Charolais Breeders Association and the International Charolais Breeders Association merged forming the present AICA. Membership in the AICA is obtainable when the applicant has ownership in at least one animal, and has paid the initial membership fee of $125. AICA annual dues are $100.

HOMESTEAD VETS BECOME HEARTLAND DOCS by Amy Blum

Nebraska veterinarians find a national platform on their journey to building life of their dreams. They renovate historic buildings to decompress. They’ve been called the Midwest’s version of popular television personalities and home renovation moguls Chip & Joanna Gaines. They’ve graced magazine covers, learned to work with an entourage, and garnered a following of fans. But, at the end of each day, two titles speak directly to Ben and Erin Schroeder’s hearts: Dad and Mom to teenage sons Charlie and Chase plus doctors of veterinary medicine to patients in a 300-mile radius of their Hartington, Nebraska home. Thanks to 2022 AIJCA Junior National planning committee chairman Krista Dybdal and husband Larry, whose family shares a decades long friendship with the Schroeder Family, attendees at the June event in Grand Island, Nebraska enjoyed unique time with the energetic duo. “I showed a Charolais heifer at the Nebraska State Fair one year thanks to the Dybdals, so I was especially grateful our schedules allowed us to take in the junior national event. The kids looked us in the eyes as we spoke, greeted us with firm handshakes, and asked great questions when given the opportunity. It’s not like that everywhere we go,” Ben says. Erin adds, “Most of our audiences are urban small animal folks. A cow crowd means a whole new level of questions and interests!”

Family first Junior national attendees were especially interested in the large animal cases and details of being a veterinarian. Yet, the small group interactions shed light on the couple’s larger presence, one with especially endearing qualities highly regarded throughout rural communities in the US. First, the Schroeders have family at their core. Early on in their married life, Erin committed herself to making sure they had a life outside of the vet clinic, and Ben followed her lead. The couple works hard to protect their time. Though it often means running short on sleep, making time for family life has allowed them to not only enjoy their boys’ activities but also participate in them

as coaches and mentors. Even their renovation projects operate around and with family. “Don’t get me wrong. There have been plenty of times where we rushed everyone off to the clinic or a farm for an emergency still dressed in basketball uniforms, but we make every effort to be there for our kids and each other,” Erin says. Second, Drs. Ben and Erin are firmly rooted in agriculture. As practicing veterinarians in their own clinic for large, small, domestic, and even exotic animals, their chosen career path ranks as deeply rewarding. Yet, it is also one of the highest in debt, stress, and suicide rates. Ben advocates often and openly for people to hug their veterinarians. “We recognize the stress of farming and ranching in our clients. We see it in ourselves and our peers,” Ben says. “Burn out is real, so I can’t stress enough how important I think it is for each of us to remember we’re all human. A hug or a call can go a long way.”

Building a life Though Erin’s upbringing as an only child in upstate New York screams opposite Ben’s childhood as the oldest of five in rural northeast Nebraska, a passion for animals brought them together when they each entered the veterinary medicine program at Kansas State University. Erin envisioned equine physiology as her back-up plan but says, even as she played Division I basketball on scholarship at Syracuse University during her undergraduate years, she always knew being a vet was her path. Ben secured his undergraduate degree in animal science from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln with no backup plan in sight; like his father John, he was going to be a vet. “Both of us consider ourselves lucky to be doing what we’re passionate about. Vet work isn’t easy work, and there are a lot of days when we have to draw on our past experiences as reminder that we can do hard things,” Erin says. “But, we’d both choose this life over any other.” Ben worked as an exotic animal vet in Manhattan,

Devon Benes, 2022-23 AIJCA President

VIEWPOINT

JUNIOR

The Next Generation It’s about the kids

ello everyone, my name is Devon Benes, and I am excited to announce that I am your new President of the AIJCA. I couldn’t be more excited to serve as the AIJCA President this year. It has been a complete honor to be able to serve on the junior board and I can’t wait to see what this year has in store for the Charolais breed. As a lot of you might know if you read last month’s Journal, I am the son of Mitch and Andrea Benes. I currently live in Lincoln, Nebraska, and work full-time on our family farm. I just graduated from Northeast Community College with a major in Graphic Design, which I do along side working on the farm. The Charolais breed has made a huge impact on my life, and I am excited to get that opportunity to give back. Growing up I

begged me to give her a piggyback ride back to the cattle barn, or when the water fights get started and I walk straight into the line of fire, or when I get into an intense sword fight with sticks down in Georgia last year. Those are the big memories that stick with me each year and bring me as much joy and happiness as it does to the kids. Now that everyone has settled down after a fun week at Junior Nationals, I would like to thank everyone that made Junior Nationals in Nebraska possible and thank all the exhibitors that traveled to Nebraska this year. I had a blast catching up with old friends and meeting so many young, bright exhibitors this year. Those young exhibitors have what it takes to change our industry. They are the next generation that is

“Those young exhibitors have what it takes to change our industry. They are the next generation that is going to do great things and I am happy I can be there to watch them all grow.” remember all those people that I used to look up to and thinking how I wanted to be like them someday, whether it was Nick Hansen, Kaitlyn Chism (Lewis), Alex Creasey, Ty Dybdal, and so many more that inspired me to be where I am at today. Growing up I didn’t know what my passion would be within the Charolais breed, but as I progressed, I knew it had to do with helping the children. The children in the industry are truly the number one thing that is keeping me in it because I love seeing the smile on those kids’ faces when they are out there showing that animal or when they are having fun with their friends in the barn. I can’t help myself but get distracted at some of these shows by the little kids. Several times during Junior Nationals I would stop to have fun with some kids in the barn and completely forget what I was supposed to do, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Some of my favorite memories are the opportunities where I get to have a little bit of fun just from walking through the barn. Like when Bevin Bertsche 24

going to do great things and I am happy I can be there to watch them all grow. I am very proud to serve as your President this year, even if it means I have to give a bunch more piggyback rides in the blistering heat from conference-to-conference next year in St. Paul, Minnesota. The 2022-2023 Junior Board is getting all settled in and working hard for the upcoming year. We are extremely excited to get to see all of your smiling faces at the upcoming national shows and can’t wait to get started planning Junior Nationals next year! I love the Charolais breed and the people that come with it. I am proud to say that I have met many friends and even people that I consider family through showing Charolais cattle. I am super excited for what is coming in the next year and couldn’t be happier with the group of people working alongside me on the Junior Board this year. If anyone has any questions or would just like to chat, feel free to pull me aside at any shows or give me a call anytime. Charolais exhibitors… you are the leaders of tomorrow! CHAROLAIS JOURNAL

This quote holds a much larger meaning that guides one’s mind to ponder what makes us who we are. There is not much to question when it comes to figuring out what the late Mrs. Evelyn Gay Lawton Duhon was made of. The legend of her family and the life that she led are clear answers to her character and the story she left behind. Dating back to 1930, her grandfather J.A. “Pally” Lawton founded Lawton Ranch, alongside their demanding rice farm and notable quarter horse herd. Pally started relatively small with a purchase of two hundred head of commercial cattle, then buying into a small herd of registered Brahman cattle. Along with this, there were 100 head of Brahman cattle handpicked to begin a “show string”.

CHAROLAIS JOURNAL

CHAD CLARK MEMORIAL OUTSTANDING SENIOR MEMBER BAYLEE MANGRUM By: Samantha Corn “Get your goal, set it, and find the person that can make it happen.” This small piece of advice a mentor gave to this year’s Chad Clark Memorial Outstanding Senior Member, Baylee Mangrum, is what pushed her to overcome any obstacle and achieve any goal she had set for herself during her time with the AIJCA. These words of kindness set Baylee’s standard for how she carried herself and how she interacted with others at each Junior National or AIJCA event she attended. Baylee’s ability to include members and take time to become an example for others are just a few small reasons for her being selected as the 2022 Chad Clark Memorial Outstanding Senior Member Award recipient. Hauling from a small town in Arkansas, Baylee, attended her first Junior National Show & Leadership Conference in 2018 in Des Moines, Iowa. Being the only participant from her state, she initially felt a little out of place. However, those feelings quickly subsided when she we met with the open arms of the AIJCA. Throughout the week she clearly remembers each individual who approached her with a friendly welcome or genuine interest in how she was doing or if she was enjoying her first Junior National. Small reassurances like those created a feeling as if she had found a home in a new place. Baylee said, “I quickly learned that the AIJCA was a family, and it is a family that I was proud to be a part of. The AIJCA allows the youth to find their purpose and place in the cattle industry.” Along with having the chance to find her niche within the cattle industry, the opportunity of networking and creating lifelong memories and connections became a major part of her life with the AIJCA. She quickly found some of her best friends to date and even pushed herself to become more involved. Baylee was crowned as Miss Charolais USA in 2020, from then she was able to create more relationships and lead by example for younger members throughout this experience. When asked to describe the most impactful lesson she has learned during her time with the Charolais Association, Baylee said, “You might not realize it, but all the younger kids running around the barn with dirt on their faces, playing with friends, they watch you more than you think. My mom always used to tell me “Be careful what you say and do, there’s always a second set of eyes watching you.” That is some of the best advice I can ever give anybody. Sometimes that little 10-year-old looking up to you might be the best thing that ever happens to you.” Above everything, building relationships and embracing others are some of the most important things Baylee has harnessed throughout her time with the AIJCA. It is clear that Baylee holds onto the impression that others had on her as a first-time participant in 2018. Looking back to the piece of advice she was given and the extension of inclusion she received, Baylee’s mission is to be that kind of person to everyone, just as others were for her. “I fully believe that a good attitude and a smile will get you a long way. It opens you up and makes the younger kids feel more welcome when talking to you and that is the best part.”

OUTSTANDING JUNIOR MEMBER SHAYLA DISMUKES

By: Samantha Corn

“You get out of it what you put into it.” This reminder about working hard and putting your all into everything you do is a major portion of what makes up this year’s Outstanding Junior Member Award recipient, Shayla Dismukes. Thirteen-year-old Shayla, from Checotah, Oklahoma, understands that it takes much to win and that giving up is not an option. This fierce competitor started her livestock exhibition journey “small” at just four years old with Miniature Herefords until she was able to begin competing at Junior National shows with Charolais and Angus cattle. Along with her cattle, she participates in many other events across the board each summer at Junior National. Some of Shayla’s main competitions are team sales & fitting, showmanship, photo, poster, and art. Each of these she takes time to prepare for and ensure her maximum effort has been given to every project. Over her short career, Shayla has accumulated many accolades in these contests, including, back-to-back titles of Champion Showman in just her first two years of participating at Junior National and a Reserve Champion Showman title this year, her first year to compete in the intermediate division. Not only does Shayla keep her hands full with a barn full of cattle and competition preparations, but she has also taken part in her middle school’s cheer team and a competitive dance team. However, with all her accomplishments, she understands the importance that comes with “being one hole out.” A piece of advice she would like to pass on to other members would be, “Do not be discouraged if you do not win or make the cut, there have been times where I did not either. Instead of giving up, I go home and ask questions on how to get better and then I practice each day so when the next show comes my heifer, and I are prepared.” The Outstanding Junior Member Award is meant to highlight an individual who displays enthusiasm, dedication, and participation at AIJCA activities. Shayla exudes this in and out of the ring. Implementing criticism to her preparations, pushing to get better, and taking on many different challenges have built a strong foundation for her to continue to grow on throughout the rest of her AIJCA journey.

Molly Smith

RETIRING AIJCA PRESIDENT

By: Samantha Corn

The 2022 Junior National Show & Leadership Conference held in Grand Island, Nebraska is wrapped up and was certainly one to remember. With a record number of entries and participation, there is no doubt memories were made that will last a lifetime and the growth of the AIJCA was seen like never before. Retiring AIJCA Junior Board President, Molly Smith, took a moment to look back on her time with the association and leave us with important things to remember and to reflect on as we point our focus to the next Junior National.

Tell me about yourself and your experience with Junior National and the AIJCA.

I have been able to call the Charolais breed my “home” for about 12 years now, and trust me, there is no place like home! Being able to serve on the Junior Board for the AIJCA has brought me so much happiness and created lifelong friendships. What the agricultural industry has done for me as a person has been unbelievable and I attribute a lot of it to being an active member of the Charolais Association. I am currently at the end of my junior career. Once I have aged out, I still plan to be involved with the AIJCA because I hope to continue to inspire young members from my area and other areas to run for the Junior Board, take leadership positions within the association, and continue to help grow our organization. My favorite part of being a board member during Junior National is all the kids I get to meet; I try my hardest to meet as many people as I can. Check-in time is one of my favorite parts of the week because I can meet as many people as possible.

Describe to junior members what being a part of the AIJCA Junior Board has done for you.

Being a part of the Junior Board has done so many things for me, as a Board member I was able to attend quite a few AICA events. In that time, I have met so many new contacts and cultivated friendships that I will never forget. Being a board member means that we must assist with check-in and various contests; during check-in I love to talk to our juniors and try to get them to do as many contests as possible and convince them that participating in quiz bowl or team fitting is a great way to get to know members from other areas/states. Another favorite of mine is when I get to help in the writing room during the impromptu speech contest, the junior division is allowed to have a Board Member sit there with them and help out if they need it. I have seen lots of tears while they are debating their topic but after the fact, they have told me how much they feel they have grown as a speaker, and they wanted to compete again next year!

What is one of the biggest take-aways you have from your time as president?

From a young age, I never thought I would wear one of those blue jackets one day, but I knew I wanted to help give back to the association that had given me so much. When I was finally old enough to run, my dad really pushed me into it, and I never looked back. Getting a position on the Board had been a dream turned into a reality. Although, it would not have been possible without the support of so many people. As my term as the AIJCA President comes to a close, I realize how fortunate I am to be able to meet a variety of people. Just like I never thought I would be a board member, I had never dreamed that I would achieve this goal of being president. As another year of Junior Nationals passes, I have met with my old friends, found new ones, and expanded my Charolais family. I was blessed to serve with an outstanding junior board this past year and am confident that I left the board in great hands.

Is there any piece of advice you have for someone who is considering running for a position on the Junior Board that you wish you had been given?

You cannot grow and improve yourself if you just “go with the flow” and watching as other people pass you by. Improvement comes as work to your greatest potential and getting involved. The effort, money, and time that we put into this industry is inconceivable but at the end of the day we should be thankful that what we do is backed by many supporters that we meet along the way. Our character is what defines us and helps us prepare for our futures. You will meet people that you will never forget and learn things that cannot be taught on the inside of a classroom. The cattle industry is full of amazing opportunities that are available through livestock associations and the things we do today can help you in the future. Our association is fortunate to have remarkable adults that help cultivate our generation to become the future leaders of tomorrow. 56

JORDAN MACK MEMORIAL HERDSMAN OF THE YEAR HALEY SCHWECKE

By: Samantha Corn It has been said that the key to successful leadership is not authority, but influence. This holds weight when it comes to this year’s Jordan Mack Memorial AIJCA Herdsman of the Year recipient. Haley Schwecke attributes much of her success to the influences and mentors that held her up. For Haley, these people are the ones who pushed her to try new things, take leaps of faith, and to push herself to exceed expectations, and she has done just that. Haley Schwecke grew up raising and showing pigs in central Minnesota most of her life, so, when she became involved with the AIJCA, it was certainly a change of pace. Nevertheless, her Charolais journey began when her brother and sister-in-law, Zack and Kim Schwecke, bought Haley her first Charolais composite heifer. Easily enough she began to fall in love with showing cattle and the cattle industry as a whole diving further and further into the association. Her involvement quickly grew, and she later decided to run for the 2018-2019 AIJCA Junior Board. Haley was elected as the 2018-2020 Area 5 Director, and last year she served as the Treasurer for the 20192020 board. When discussing her involvement with AIJCA, it was very clear that her journey was majorly impacted by her peers and mentors. “Through the experiences I had and people that I met; I was reassured how passionate I had become for the Charolais breed. Through AIJCA and every Junior National, I was able to expand my knowledge in the cattle industry and am very thankful to have made lifelong friends.” Deriving motivation from many mentors, Haley has learned the importance of working hard in pursuit of a goal from many other Charolais members. She adds that along with working hard, it is key to keep yourself humble, and surround yourself with people who make you better. It is easy to see that Haley surrounded herself with people who pushed her to grow and succeed within the Charolais Association. Not only has Haley had many sources of motivation, but she has harnessed the ability to pull a lesson from any opportunity. A key lesson that she learned from showing Charolais cattle would be, “Winning a show is not always the end goal.” As a naturally competitive person, winning is a nice addition to every show. However, Haley says that her biggest blessing and accomplishment is having the opportunity to give back by teaching the younger members and to continue learning from those around her. Her actions and character did not go unnoticed and were appreciated by many. On the last day of this year’s Junior National Show & Leadership Conference in Grand Island, Nebraska the barn was filled with applause and cheering as the 2022 Jordan Mack Memorial AIJCA Herdsman of the Year award was presented to Haley Schwecke. Moments before entering the ring for the Grand Drive, Haley emerged from the makeup arena with tears streaming past her smile, embracing the 2021 Herdsmen, Maddy and Maguire Rohr. The Rohr twins described Haley as a selfless individual that could be seen around the barn lending a helping hand, taking time to teach the younger members, and ensuring that everyone was included. It was clear that receiving this award was an incredible achievement to her. Haley mentions later that this was the most honorable award she has ever received, as many of the people who have influenced her have also been presented this award. “I am so thankful for all my mentors and peers who have given me an opportunity to be a part of this incredible industry.”

Kansas for a short time; then, he and Erin returned to his hometown and began working with his father. The pair complemented the elder Schroeder’s extensive bovine experience with their equine and small animal education. By 2007, the couple purchased Cedar County Vet from John. While both vets are capable with animals of all sizes and kinds, Erin takes the lead on small animal cases, and Ben leads large animal cases. “We learned a long time ago that there can’t be two cooks in the kitchen when it comes to a married couple working together every day,” Ben says. Over the next several years, Ben and Erin moved and remodeled the vet clinic three times to accommodate their growing and changing clientele. They also had locations in Yankton and Vermillion, South Dakota. “Reno projects are a release for us,” Ben says. “For Erin, renovations are a creative release, a way to decompress. For me, our projects are about the physical activity. Crossfit without the gym!” Erin adds, “I do really like to find heavy things for Ben to lift! For us, vet work and renovation projects are a lot alike. We see things that are broken, sick, and debilitated. Most of the time, with some TLC and the right care, you can improve an animal’s life; it’s the same with a building. You just have to love them.” What neither of them could predict, of course, was how their renovation hobby would launch their veterinary careers to red carpet fame.

Main Street arose. The family went to work gutting and restoring the historic space. In the end, the top floor became a home space for their family while the main level served as an event space. Bit by the reno bug, Ben and Erin found themselves intrigued when their real estate agent shared information about buying their town’s three story 1917 Hartington Hotel building. They purchased and began work on the space in 2017. A year later, the main floor opened to the community as a coffee shop diner called The Lobby while the basement opened as an event bar called The Tap Room. The building’s top two floors feature 17 bedrooms and nine bathrooms especially enjoyed by wedding parties and community visitors. “We did this as a project for the community and our boys,” Erin says. “Now, there’s another avenue for them to come home if ever they want to.” When the Omaha World Herald caught wind of the Schroeder’s project, the paper came to town and featured a glowing article on the young couple and their work. The dynamic duo was compared to Chip and Joanna Gaines, a charismatic married couple who starred in the Texas-based renovation show called Fixer Upper. The story was then picked up by even larger syndicates, and soon television producers thought they had the next renovation show stars. “It was all very flattering, but renovating is our hobby. Veterinary work is our passion, so passing on the opportunity wasn’t hard,” Erin says. Then, Glass Entertainment Group producers arrived in Hartington and realized the real opportunity: Familycentered veterinarians full of heart caring for animals of all sizes and species in America’s Heartland.

Made for TV Ben and Erin weren’t opposed to the idea of reality television, but two areas were non-negotiable. First, any project they were part of had to include their family. Second, the result had to provide the most accurate

Renovating the future By 2015, the couple settled into their life as rural veterinarians and parents to Charlie and Chase, who were 12 and 10 at the time. Then, the opportunity to purchase the 1901 Globe clothing store building on Hartington’s 62

representation of agriculture possible. “We feel a lot of responsibility. For some people, our show is the only knowledge they have about rural America. Our goals have always been to build relationships and trust with our crew, our community, and our viewers,” Erin says. Ben adds, “The farmers go 10 times the extra mile than what (viewers) thought they did. They’re not just in it for the paycheck. Farmers and ranchers really are in it for the welfare and the good care of their animals. And that is what continues to amaze me. Urban viewers who follow us and watch the show are pleased that the real story is what they were actually watching.” Maintaining authenticity, for both the family and the show, remains a high priority. Yet, it’s not a priority without challenges. Like production agriculture, veterinary medicine is a volatile and highly emotional career. The Schroeders and their clients must trust that their highest highs and lowest lows will be treated with utmost respect in the editing room. “It takes 150 hours of recorded footage to get 42 minutes of meaningful and watchable TV,” Erin shares. “Retaining what matters without compromising the reality takes a lot of editing!” Ben and Erin know fame is fleeting, and they work hard to appreciate each phase of their life. “We wear what I call positive goggles. Someday, all of this—the cameras, the fans, the crazy schedules—will be over, and we want to walk away from it knowing we enjoyed it the best we could. It can be easy to get overwhelmed, so focusing on gratitude for it all helps,” Erin says. Season 4 of Heartland Docs, DVM concluded July 9 on Nat Geo Wild.

Behind the Scenes with Heartland Docs, DVM Drs. Ben and Erin Schroeder didn’t plan to have their own reality TV show, but opportunity rarely looks how people plan. Today, the Schroeders star on Nat Geo Wild’s Heartland Docs, DVM, which features Drs. Ben and Erin serving the community of Hartington, Nebraska with their sons Charlie and Chase. With four seasons under their belts and season five currently in production, Ben and Erin share a look behind the scenes of their journey as advocates for agriculture. Most challenging part of filming real life? The pair agrees. Not getting overwhelmed by it all is a challenge, and the scheduling can be a nightmare. “We still have a life to live with our boys and clients to serve who don’t want to be on TV. Our filming days are long, exhausting ones,” Erin shares. What’s the biggest fear you had about a reality TV show? Ben and Erin took hours of training before the show ever aired learning how to handle antagonistic situations calmly. Ben says they’re glad to have the training but even more glad to not generally need it. “Fellow ag folks especially wonder what kind of challenge PETA and HSUS have been for us. In our experience, people who watch our show are also animal lovers. They follow us to learn. They are looking for education,” he says. “Right there, the interaction starts off positively.” Favorite part of filming? For Erin, the show’s fans are her favorite. “Having people drive across the country to meet you and share how your show impacted them in some way is really meaningful.” For Ben, getting to know the crew and having them fall in love with rural America ranks at the top. “My favorite cameraman was a vegan from Brooklyn. We found common ground and developed a real understanding for each other’s life.”

continued from page 17 were very enlightening and encouraging to me regarding the future of the Charolais breed. We eventually took a break on Tuesday afternoon to watch the team fitting competition where (we were told) new friends are made and old friends are reunited. On Wednesday morning while senior and intermediate showmanship were getting started in the main arena, Miranda and I went to the east end of the cattle barn to reengage in interviews. We soon had an opportunity to visit with a young woman from Alabama who plans to start college this fall at Mississippi State University majoring in Nuclear Physics. We also interviewed former AIJCA President, Ms. Caitlin Jedlicka. This was one of my favorite interviews because of Caitlin’s vast knowledge of Charolais Junior Nationals and what they have meant to her and her family. I thoroughly enjoyed my time meeting and interacting with numerous Charolais enthusiasts at the 2022 AIJCA Junior National. Kaitlyn Chism, Director of Junior Activities for the AICA, said we had a record number of entries from 31 states which made for a fun week in Grand Island, Nebraska. As usual, Kaitlyn and the AIJCA Junior Board did a wonderful job coordinating events, running shows and providing exhibitors with plenty of opportunities to develop their leadership skills. As you know, the future of the Charolais breed lies with our youth and I enjoyed interacting with them for six days in a row. Special thanks to those individuals who took time to be interviewed and to the volunteers who served on the planning committee.! I look forward to meeting more of you at Charolais events in the coming months.
