CJSA at the National Western!


Several CJSA members surround the AI tank auctioned off at the Wild, Wild West sale. The new tank, full of donated semen, was sold to raise funds for the AJSA western regional clinic. The regional will be hosted by Colorado's youth this summer.


Katie German sells BDK Pipers Dream, a bred Dream On daughter, as a donation lot from BDK Simmental at the Wild, Wild West sale on Jan. 22. The members thank the German family for the lot, with all proceeds going to the AJSA western regional fund.


Chad Russell sells yellow seat cushions to the Simmental pen show audience at National Western Stock Show. The cushions were a CJSA fund-raiser idea to aid the AJSA western regional fund, while providing some relief from the cold, hard bleachers. Russell and Darin Cook were top salesmen. The AJSA regional will be June 13-15 at Pueblo, CO. Donors are needed. See the donation form on this site. Please aid our youth!

Colorado Junior Simmental Association Field Day
 

            ORDWAY - Colorado Junior Simmental youth elected officers and competed in an assortment of beef-related contests during the association field day on June 2-3 here.

            With classes courtesy of Ordway Feedyard and Reflected R Ranch, the youth evaluated market and breeding beef classes for the judging competition. They also tested their industry knowledge with a written herdsmanship quiz and their communication skills with a sales talk contest judged by Leonard Pruett of Lamar. Pruett, retired extension livestock specialist, also judged the showmanship and heifer show contests at the Crowley County Fairgrounds.

            In accumulated weekend points, Katie Campbell of Ignacio won the senior division and Chad Russell of Sugar City won the field day junior division. Champion heifer, Camp Madison S1, was exhibited by Macoy Rains of Oakley, KS; and reserve champion heifer, WRC Miss Dream On S635, was exhibited by Jason Russell of Sugar City.

            Jason & Chad Russell will represent Colorado at the American Junior Simmental Association North-Central Regional Classic competition in Kearney, NE.

            The Colorado youth also elected officers. Jason Russell was selected president, Katie German of Longmont picked as vice president and Katie Campbell was re-elected secretary. The three teens will lead the association in its preparation for hosting the American Junior Simmental Association Western Regional Classic competition on June 13-15, 2008 in Pueblo. BDK Simmentals of Longmont donated a heifer to kick off fund-raising efforts. The group began planning for next summer’s multi-state event.
