catching a calf . Each year , the scramble committee awards their winners a certificate to purchase a breeding animal of their choosing and return the next year to show their animal . Immediately , I knew I was going to buy my first heifer .
Fast forward three years later to the summer before my second time attending NJLSC . I saw a post on the Limousin Facebook page saying that Junior Board applications were open . I glanced over the application and realized I was old enough to apply . So once again , I decided to just go for it .
Now I ’ m wrapping up my first year on the board and have loved every second of it . So , if I had any piece of advice to give a junior , it would be to step out of your comfort zone . Join that judging team , be the friend , take the leap . You never know what life is going to throw your way . When you have the chance , take it . It might be the best decision of your life .
“ The further you get away from yourself , the more challenging it is . Not to be in your comfort zone is great fun .”
