Some of our activities this year have included Rocky Show and other local shows. Please let us know of your activities in your local area and we can share these with the rest of the membership. Just email photos and a blurb to mitchmay@bigpond.com for inclusion in future newsletters. We’d also like to be kept up to date with your new calves, promotion activities, meat production and any other areas of owning Lowlines so send any info you would like to share! We’d like lots of feedback.
Promotional Material
We have promotional material available to you for field days, shows and other promotional events including magazines, new pamphlets,stickers, banners and a list of QLPG breeders. Just get in touch to let us know what you need and we will get it to you!
North Queensland
Cairns Show is doing a small breeds feature this year and some of our members are involved with the promotion of this event. Steven Merieder and Stuart Leibmann are the people to contact if you want further information.
Ekka 2009
We have been asked by Lowline Plus about providing drinks and nibbles after the showing. What do you think? Let us know at the contacts above.
Toowoomba Show 2010
The Toowoomba Show would like to have Lowlines as a feature breed at this show. If you are able to support this idea and/or wish to attend please let Tim know as the dates are close to the Sydney Royal Easter Show and the Australian Lowline Cattle Muster and those that cannot attend at Sydney may find Toowoomba a good alternative
Your Input
We need to know what the members want or need for our Promotions Group to be effective. We would also like to develop a relationship between all those in the group. So send in your information, photos, questions, whatever! Love to hear from you!
All the best for the rest of 2009 ! To misquote the old Irish blessing – may the rain fall softly on your fields, may all your cows have easy calvings and may the cooler weather not dampen your enthusiasm for our great breed.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
