From Your TJLA President

Howdy!

Stock shows are over and school is coming to an end which means summer is just around the corner. I am Katelyn Smith, 2010 graduate of Stephenville High School, future Texas Aggie and your current TJLA President.

I hope that y’all had a good show season and are ready to start the next one. June is our Texas Field Day in Bryan and July is our National Show & Congress in Kansas. I hope to see all of you there ready to represent the Limousin breed and have a good time. If you are anything like me I am sure that you are excited to get a break from school.

Have a GREAT summer! Anxious to see you all soon!

Sincerely,
Katelyn Smith

Junior National, AALF Coming To Texas in ‘09

Dear TLA and TJLA Membership,

As you know, Texas will be hosting the 2009 National Junior Limousin Show and Congress and All American Limousin Futurity July 11-18, 2009 in Amarillo. I have been fortunate enough to be involved with hosting this event in 1983 (San Antonio)  1992 (Fort Worth), and 2002 (Amarillo). It is very rewarding and fun to have our National Limousin family come to our “home” for the premier week of the year for our breed. I must also be honest, it takes a lot of planning and hard work.

If you are interested in serving on a committee, please plan to attend the Texas Limousin Association annual meeting in Fort Worth. We will be assigning committees and mapping our route to Amarillo in ‘09. If you are unable to attend but want to be a part of the action, please contact Bruce Lawrence at (806) 997-5381 or me at (806) 375-2345. 

I look forward to the fellowship of working with fellow TLA and TJLA members and the crew in Amarillo to ensure the success of this great event. I hope you are as excited and fired up about it as I am. Thanks in advance, and let’s have a great year in 2008 in the Limousin breed.

Bret Begert
