Ayrshire Breeders’ Meeting Reminder BRATTLEBORO, Vt. In an attempt to generate comment and discussion by rank and file members of the Ayrshire Breeder’s Associa tion, the national organization has scheduled several forums at large shows and events across the country. The purpose of the forums is to help the breed association develop its short- and long-term goals, as established through a consensus of opinion by breeders. The association recently sent out a news release from its headquarters in Batdeboro, Vt, reminding breeders of the forum scheduled to be held during the North American Livestock Exposition (NAILE), in St. Louis. Mo. According to the news release, the forum is scheduled to be held from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., tyov. 7, at the expo center grounds, with more specific details available at the site. “We will discuss what was said during the •open forum at World Dairy Expo in Madison,” said Jim McConnell, president of ABA, in the statement “We will pose many of the same questions to these Ayrshire breeders (who attend NAILE): Where should the breed be in five yean? In 10 years? What is the most important role of the association? How can more rapid genetic gains be achieved?” According to McConnell, the forums are extremely important to Ayrshire breeders. “We are deciding where we want the Ayrshire breed to be, and the best people to do that are the breed crs. I look foward to hearing all of their comments.” For more information, call the ABA at (802) 254-7460.
