Atlantic Beef, Fall 2007

A message from the Canadian Angus Association's Junior Ambassador: Hi, my name is Ricki Fleming. I am 20 years old, currently working on our family farm in Granum, Alberta. We are located one hour south of Calgary along the picturesque Porcupine Hills. We run a mixed grain operation and run 100 head of registered Black Angus cows, as well as a commercial herd. I am an active partner in all segments of Fleming Stock Farms. I have recently graduated from Lethbridge Community College with a diploma in Agriculture Technology - Animal Science. I have been involved with the cattle industry all my life and it is a passion of mine. I encourage youth with a passion for agriculture to stay actively involved in the industry. Follow your dreams, if you enjoy what you are doing it is never work. I strongly believe that today's youth are the future of tomorrow, especially in the Angus fraternity. The development of today's eager Angus enthusiasts is crucial to the sustainability of the breed. Welcome their new innovative ideas, their use of technologies, and their uplifting passion for Angus. I am pleased to serve as the 2007 CAA Angus Ambassador. I look forward to representing and promoting the Canadian Angus Foundation and their programs. I am eager to meet Angus breeders from the purebred sector, as well as commercial cattle producers who use our Angus genetics. See you along the trail. Ricki Fleming Robert C. McHaffie Junior Ambassador
