Hereford Women of Tennessee News

As we leave 2022 in the rearview mirror, the Hereford Women of Tennessee would like to wish you all a wonderful 2023 ahead. As 2022 neared its end, Miss Jaclyn Aiken competed for National Hereford Queen in Kansas City in October. She came back to Tennessee after being named Miss Congeniality. This is such a special and wonderful title to claim because it is voted on by fellow competitors. Jaclyn’s light and sweet personality was shining just as brightly in Kansas City as it has all year here in Tennessee. Congratulations, Jaclyn!

We are excited to see everyone soon at Tennessee Beef Agribition! We will be presenting our Hereford Women of Tennessee Scholarship during the Tennessee Hereford Association Annual Meeting and also crowning a new Tennessee Hereford Queen! Applications for the scholarship are due by February 28, 2023, and Queen applications are due by February 20, 2023. Remember to look closely at all requirements for each. You must be a junior member for two consecutive years to be a scholarship recipient. Also note that junior dues must be paid to run for Tennessee Hereford Queen and mom must also be paid up on Hereford Women of Tennessee dues. For any additional questions concerning Queen applications, please contact Sally Wingler at sallyhwingler@gmail.com or by phone at (615) 686-7157. Here’s looking forward to a successful and exciting 2023!
