Insider 8.9.16 Information

EPDs are Updated in the Registry

The North American Shorthorn Genetic Evaluation for Fall 2016 is now updated in the registry.

Delegate Election Process

Each state will become a separate district to be recognized as a state delegation and Canada will be considered the equivalence of a state. The number of delegates from that state will be determined by the number of members in good standing at the time the ballots for delegate election are mailed.
Delegate ballots will be mailed from the ASA office in August of each year to members in good standing as of August 1 of that year. In order for members to make informed selections, a list of members in good standing from that state or district will accompany ballots. Only one ballot or delegate will be allowed per membership vote per entity or membership. The ballots mailed for each state or district will include the number of delegates allocated to their state or district. All ballots must be returned to the ASA office by the Tuesday after Labor Day in September of that year. They are due September 6, 2016. 
 
All delegates will be contacted to confirm their willingness and ability to serve as soon as possible after the ballots have been returned to the ASA office and counted.  Delegates will be notified at least 30 days prior to the annual meeting. Delegates will serve as their state or district representative from October 1 to September 31 of each year.
Annual Meeting will be December 3, 2016 at the Argosy Hotel and Casino. Check future Insider and Shorthorn Country for registration information.
