President ’ s Message
We are All Limousin
By Bret Begert , NALF president
Welcome to the October 2017 edition of LIMOUSIN TODAY ®. I hope this finds each of you having a great fall .
As you have heard , we have made some changes at the North American Limousin Foundation . Change is never easy , but it is a constant in life . Nothing stays the same . As times goes on and circumstances arise , adjustments must be made . We have had so many successes during the past almost half century and our breed and association has been blessed in so many ways , we have much to be thankful for . I ’ m not going to get specific with all the adjustments , but I will say that the NALF Board of Directors is committed to living within our means , while promoting the breed nationwide as we always have . The mission of NALF has not and will not change . We have a very capable staff who knows we are a service organization and we work for you , the membership . They also believe in our cattle and in our breeders . I am NOT just writing these words ; the board and staff believe the best days for the Limousin breed are in the future . The cattle keep getting better and better , and you , the breeders , are to be commended . We have a lot to look forward to . Now is the time to join forces , come together , and work in unison as a breed , from north , south , east , or west , large or small herd , show or commercial , fullblood , purebred , or Lim-Flex . We are ALL LIMOUSIN .
Please feel free to contact your board members or Mark with any questions . My best to each of you during this exciting time of year in the cattle business . I
