If you have never been to one of these, or never heard Dr. Thornsberry speak, it would be worth your time. These rancher folks have some real concerns about what our government is doing and where they are leading us. Alice and I plan to attend on the 22 September at the Springfield Livestock Market Center 6:30 p.m. at
6821 West Independence; Café will be open for meals, desserts and drinks.

Part II of each meeting is a membership workshop session. R-CALF USA Membership Services Coordinator Laurel Masterson also will attend the meetings. “We encourage all past and present members, as well as those who’ve been watching R-CALF to attend,” said Masterson. “These meetings are a great opportunity for those who have not decided to join R-CALF, but have been watching, to learn more about R-CALF and meet some of our leaders. We are very excited about ‘Part II’ of each meeting: the membership workshop session. Often our meetings are very issue-focused, and we don’t fully take advantage of having our members together. During the membership workshop session, we hope to provide tools our members need to help them continue to support R-CALF.” All meetings are free and take place in local time. *Tues., Sept. 22nd** – Springfield* - Springfield Livestock Market Center 6:30 p.m. 6821 West Independence; Café will be open for meals, desserts and drinks. *Wed., Sept. 23rd** – Richland* - Shady Dell Park Community Center 7:00 p.m. 400 National; No dinner served, but drinks and potluck dessert provided. *Thur., Sept. 24th **– Fulton* - Callaway County Senior Center 6:30 p.m. 531 Commons Dr. (Behind Southerland Lumber Co.), Coffee & donuts served. *Fri., Sept. 25th** – Owensville* - Owensville High School 7:00 p.m. 3336 Hwy. 19 No dinner served, but refreshments will be provided.
