California
Cattlewomen – Goals and Reality
Our major mission, or goal, is Beef Promotion and
Education. We promote beef by educating the consumer at all
ages and levels. The reality is that our organization of
1850 women must work together to be most effective in fulfilling
our mission at county, state, and national levels.
In this term,
we are going to focus on more beef promotion. One easy project
in which we can participate without having to get the whole
program up and running is the Les Schwab February Beef
Promotion. We also want to partner with
the California Beef Council on other projects where they need
feet on the ground (multiply 1850 by 2, and you have lots of
feet!).
Another
essential goal is increasing membership in CCW and ANCW. We
need to reach out and encourage women who support our industry
to join us. The reality of increasing membership is that this
is most successful on a one to one basis. With only 43 more
California members at the ANCW level, we will have another
delegate…this is very important!
Beef education
programs will continue through Ag in the Classroom, and the Beef
Ambassador Program. A continuous, consistent program from each
county unit, which keeps growing, encourages the understanding
and respect that our industry needs.
One new project
for this term will be a history of California ranches, from
heritage to modern. We hope that this will represent every
county unit in the state, and will be something that we can
publish in the future. No one is prouder of their heritage than
Cattlewomen and Cattlemen.
Remember,
ladies. We’ve got the beat (both the job and the rhythm) and we
need to keep dancing!
