2024 WOMEN IN RANCHING
A tremendous thank you to KJUG for giving us a radio spot on the "Tom and Becky Show!" Thank you Corryn La Rue for arranging this terrific opportunity to reach over 4,000 listeners during our 5 minute talk about ranchers and the benefits of beef. Corryn LaRue had done an internship with KJUG and we are thankful that she was able to schedule this special day. This year we focused on talking to the listeners about the many byproducts that beef provides. Tom and Becky are amazing and made the visit fun and enjoyable. We could not be more appreciative and humbled by this opportunity.

SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY CATTLEWOMEN WIN THE STATE WALT RODMAN AWARD
This is a prestigious award given at the State Cattlemen/CattleWomen Convention. The award recognizes outstanding beef promotion projects each year and is sponsored by the Beef Council. Our winning project was the brainchild of our own Kathy Loftus. Her love of the ranching history in San Luis Obispo County produced an exquisite display of photographs and written historical accounts of the ranches in the county. You are encouraged to visit the "History of Cattle Ranching winning exhibit at the Pioneer Museum in Paso Robles. Congratulations Kathy!
