THE OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE BELTED GALLOWAY SOCIETY, INC.

US Beltie News Regional Groups are Important

www.beltie.org

Inside this issue:

NAILE Grand Champion Steer Driftwood Carlos. Bred by Sue Drew (SC). Owned by Mary Ellen O’Connor (IN). Also named Grand Champion Steer Kathi Jurkowski Junior Show.

President Ron Howard I recently was extraordinarily fortunate to be able to attend the Texas Belted Galloway Association’s Christmas party and visit with a number of Beltie breeders in that area. Beyond the confirmation that Beltie breeders everywhere are very special people, I came away with two primary obser-vations.

First, that no matter what part of the country you go, there are some terrific Belted Gallo-way cattle being raised. We visited farms that few other Beltie breeders had even seen, and there were some cows and bulls that would have worked well in any herd in the country. Second, the formation of the Texas Belted Galloway Association was an excellent deci-sion by the group, and with the strong leadership of all involved will be very successful. But most importantly, it was a good decision because of their unique and common needs. There is a mix of members who are relatively new to our breed and members who are also veteran cattle people. They can all learn from each other and support one another. It is my belief that having strong regional Beltie groups are just as important as having a strong national organization. We will look in 2011 for ways to support the regional groups to make them even stronger. The first step will be to invite the president of each regional group to participate in quarterly teleconference calls to share their work and to see what we can learn from each other.

Finally, The Texas group gave recognition to Homer and Diane Mohn for their work in establishing and promoting Belties in Texas. A well deserved award!

About advertising … Classified ads are free to members. All classified ads are automatically placed on the Hotline on the internet. Two-month limit on classi-fied insertions. Please include contact information as you wish it to appear — name, farm, location, phone, Fax and Email, if any. For all Emails — Place Hotline in the Subject line. Please Email to executivedirector@beltie.org, Fax 608-527-4811or phone (608) 220-1091. We encourage members to submit ads the last two weeks of the month. Advertising bulls … Before advertising a young male as a breeder we must be sure he is well conformed, tracks properly, has good legs and feet, and exhibits good weight gains. We should have data available on his birth weight, 205-day weaning weight, and yearling weight. If he's reached breeding age (around 18 months), it's definitely a plus to have his semen checked for quantity and motility. Any data available should appear in your advertisement along with his birth date and the names of his sire and dam. Further, it is required that registration numbers be included on bulls advertised for sale in the Hotline and newslet-ter.

Welcome to Council We welcome he following individuals who have been elected or re-elected to serve on Council beginning in January 2010. Scott Griffith (TX) and his wife, Holly, own and operate the Bluebird Ranch in the small east Texas town of Murchison. The ranch has been in the family for over 100 years and for most of that time has been a cattle operation. In addition to a herd of about 75 Belted Galloway cattle, they raise commer-cial cattle, Kiko goats, horses, and grow, harvest and sell coastal bermuda hay. Some of their grass-finished Beltie beef is carried at local health food stores. There are a number of different families that live on the ranch, all of whom gather at the main house and share a community meal, prayer time and devotion each week. Scott holds a Master's degree in Business and previously taught at the local university, as well as, con-sulted in the financial and aerospace industries. Currently, he spends much of his time managing the ranch and a real estate business. Scott is also President of the Texas Belted Gallo-way Association. Jerry Moore (KY) and his wife, Jennifer, live in south central Kentucky in the small town of Smith’s Grove. The Moores pur-chased their first Belted Galloway in 1992 and began showing in 1999. Their cattle have appeared in shows across the country. Jerry was the past herd superintendent at the Georgia National Fair. The family strives for breed preservation, maintaining high quality animals. On their farm, they also raise alfalfa, grass hay, tobacco, and sweet corn. Jerry is a high school social studies teacher and coach. He enjoys his teaching career and raising Belted Galloway cattle. Jerry has served on Council for a one-year term. He is currently Chairman of the Show and Sale com-mittees. Jon Rozelle (AZ) grew up on a small ranch in southern Cali-fornia providing him with deep appreciation for animals and the outdoors. He enjoys working on his ranch located outside of Flagstaff, Arizona, where his family rides horses and man-age a small herd of Belties. At an elevation of 7,400 feet, just 80 miles from the Grand Canyon, they experience all the di-verse seasons that occur in their part of the country. From snow and frozen stock ponds during the winter to the hot, dry days of summer, they spend hands-on time with their Belties virtually every day. Jon purchased his herd of Belties in January 2000 and still owns many of their original animals today. Holding a degree in electrical engineering with a minor emphasis in business, John’s professional career has included work in the aerospace, medical, and construction industries. Jon has held the position of President in the Western Belted Galloway Association and enjoys promoting his unique breed of cattle. Jon has served on Council in a one-year term and now is finishing a two-year term. He formerly co-chaired the BYG Committee and now is the Chair of the Annual Meeting Committee.

Executive Director Vic Eggleston The Council has spent many hours evaluating the financial structure of the Society in light of the changes that have taken place regarding expense and revenue sources since separating the registration, transfer and membership responsibilities from the Secretary’s position and transferring them to CLRC. In addition to providing expanded hours, online membership and pedigree infor-mation, the CLRC is providing us with a detailed spreadsheet which allows the Society to specifically identify revenue and ex-pense sources. We found that we were losing money on semen certificates and barely breaking even on transfers. Taking into account that information, in addition to evaluating the goals and responsibilities the Council has to its members to preserve and promote the breed, a couple of changes in the fee structure were developed to be implemented starting January 1, 2011. Three changes will take place:

1. All membership renewals for 2011 are to be submitted to CLRC and will have the handling fee included. The Society absorbed the cost of the handing fee charges for membership renewals and applications in 2010.

2. Transfer fees will increase in 2011 from $10 to $20 for those applied for within 30 days of the sale and from $20 to $30 for transfers applied for between 30-60 days after the sale.

3. Semen certificates fees will increase in 2011 from $1 to $2 per certificate with a minimum order of 10 certifi-cates.

Examination of our historical records indicates there has been no increase in our membership, transfer and registration fees within the last 20 years with the exception of standardizing the bull regis-tration fee in 2005. The Belted Galloway Society Council is continually working to get the greatest possible return from the monetary resources it receives and appreciates your support.
