2023 Convention Recap

The Idaho CattleWomen Council held a meeting and social during the Idaho Cattle Association annual convention in Sun Valley in November. We had nearly 50 women and guests in attendance. Everyone enjoyed refreshments, and an ice breaker, where each shared if they could have dinner with any person (past or present) who would it be and why.

The business meeting included updates on the committees—website, store, saddle/scholarship. A committee was formed to discuss the possibility of ANCW membership. They will report back during the summer meeting in June 2024. In addition, the resolution in regards to the Idaho Cattlewomen Council and ANCW was reaffirmed.

New leadership for ICWC is Tay Brackett, who moves up into the ICW Chairman seat and onto the ICA Executive Committee. Christie Prescott becomes the ICW Rep to the ICA Board of Directors.

We had another great turnout for the Annual Photo Contest. All entered photos need to be emailed to Morgan at the office if they haven’t been yet. They will be used in future promotions and marketing materials for the association.

ICA Convention Recap

Yes, we realize it’s already the end of January, but the year is still young, right?! No time like the present to just jump right in. We’re sharing some highlights from the ICA Convention in Sun Valley. There were many entries in the annual photo contest. We had a great turnout of women who came to the ICWC social and meeting. UI students served Finger Steaks as part of some ongoing research in meat science. Gwenna Prescott completed her term as Council Chairwoman, and Maggie Malson stepped into her role. Tay Brackett also joined the ICA board as ICWC representative. We also gave away the saddle and headstall to two lucky winners. All the proceeds from the saddle raffle go to help deserving Idaho students receive scholarships. Thanks to Anita Miller for all her hard work on the saddle committee. Gov. Little also stopped by to visit and answer questions.
