The annual<br />
winter meeting for<br />
the National Board<br />
members of the Canadian <strong>Charolais</strong><br />
Youth Association finished up on the<br />
afternoon of January the fifth. The<br />
National Board holds an annual<br />
winter meeting and finds it a very<br />
productive and important way to<br />
keep the Canadian <strong>Charolais</strong> Youth<br />
Association running each year.<br />
Many decisions were made in<br />
regards to programs the CCYA<br />
provides to its members, including<br />
changes to the judging format at the<br />
Conference as well as changes to<br />
the Genetics Program.<br />
Judging Change for Conference <strong>2013</strong><br />
Senior and Intermediates at the<br />
summer Conference in Shelburne,<br />
Ontario, will now be required to do<br />
CANADIAN CHAROLAIS YOUTH ASSOCIATION NEWS<br />
<strong>2013</strong> Winter Meeting<br />
Travis Jozwiak, Director<br />
oral presentations for all judging<br />
classes and will not hand in written<br />
reasons. For junior members,<br />
everything will remain the same as<br />
other years.<br />
Genetics Program<br />
The <strong>2013</strong> Genetics Program will<br />
now feature some newer more<br />
popular bulls for juniors to pick from.<br />
With a more up-to-date and more<br />
desirable list of semen, the National<br />
Board hopes to generate more<br />
interest in the program which is free<br />
for all members to utilize.<br />
Newsletter Format Change<br />
The National Board also decided to<br />
change the bi-annual newsletter to a<br />
digital format. The Board feels this is<br />
a better format for everyone because<br />
it can be viewed on any device and<br />
reduces our paper usage.<br />
CCYA on facebook and twitter<br />
In an effort to become more<br />
modern and tech savvy the National<br />
Board has created a Facebook page as<br />
well as a Twitter account. Like us on<br />
Facebook by searching CCYA and<br />

Once again the CCYA National<br />
Board had a very productive winter<br />
meeting that saw changes to many<br />
programs. As always, check our<br />
