SH...Tommy,

Have you ever served on the Cattlemen's Beef Board? If not, why not?

Do you find it easier to get involved and make positive changes or to sit in the cheap seats and throw stones?

1. Those who make things happen.
2. Those who criticize those who make things happen.
3. Those who wonder what happened.

Where do you fit in Tommy?

Scott, it is next to impossible here in Kansas to get a seat on the CBB and impossible to get a seat on the KBC (Kansas Beef Council) if one is not a member of the KLA and NCBA. I have tried, so on this subject Scott I know what I am talking about.
Scott, how do you feel about the state beef councils spending all the money they do on Federation board seats? Do you feel that it is right for them to do that? South Dakota buys board seats too, just not as many as Kansas.

I am trying to make changes in the way it works Scott. I feel it is wrong and am working with others in our state to change it. I am not one of those who sit and bench about things without trying to do something about it. I want the checkoff to be administered fairly, with the way it is set up now it is not.
