Bureau
Set
CALLICOON, N. Y..
—ln early December,
farmers from across the
state will leave their
farms for a couple of
days to attend a conven
tion that will blend the
passage of New York
Farm Bureau’s legisla
tive agenda with loads
of fun and relaxation.
Farm Bureau’s 1994
State Convention will
take place December 6-
8 at the Villa Roma
Resort Hotel in Calli
coon N.Y.
According to David
Whitmore, NYFB’s or
ganization director, “On
one hand, the business
session of our annual
state convention is the
most important Farm
Bureau meeting of the
year. It is here that our
policy is approved—
policy that will map out
Farm Bureau’s stance in
the governmental, pub
lic, and legal arenas, the
business also includes
elections and presenta
tion of the organiza
tion’s financial situa
tion. On the other hand,
though, the convention
offers farmers, people
who rarely find the time
to get way from their
business, an opportunity
to go to a resort setting
where there is plenty of
good food, many sport
ing activities to engage
in, time to sit back and
rest, and lots of old
friends to visit with and
time to meet new ones.”
This year’s agenda at
the Farm Bureau con
vention includes two
speakers—Dean Kleck
ner, president of the 4.1
million member Ameri
can Farm Bureau Feder
ation, and Mac Parker, a
farmer-humorist from
Vermont, said Whit
more. There will also be
many award presenta
tions. such as the Young
Farmer Achievement
Award and Discussion
Meet winner, and the
county Farm Bureau
program and member
ship awards.
