The evening’s festivities will include the honoring last year’s Jr. beef exhibitors, the awarding of the cattlemen’s college scholarships (trivia: did you know since 1999 when the college scholarship program was begun, the FCCA has awarded a total of $28,000 in scholarships to local youth?), and a brief industry update. Cambell Parrish from the Ohio Beef Council will also be on hand to share the good news about how check-off dollars are being used to enhance the consumer demand for beef. And as in the recent past, the annual auction will also highlight the evening!
