The British Charolais Cattle Society As my year as sociery Ch2irnian comes ro a close it d(xs noi feel like five minutes 3go we were at the Royal Hthghland lasi year.

In January of this year Grahattl Robin50D decided that il was litnc for him srand down 3$ Society TruTer. Overthe last 10 years Graham has given maThy hours of de(h"caied service the xKiety and put in more hours than I could even irnagint. Graham has supported a numberof Thaimn along the way and been a consiment figure f(Y theoffice ream. Groham we thonk you for your years of hatd w¢xk and dedication. l am not sur¢ what you will do to fill your time lyjt l am sure Sue aThJ the f8mRly will sorr that for you. As many of you will know. l am passionate abour oppjrtunities and traiDing fot the next generwioD. The young bT¢ed¢rs day 'ndly hosted by the Ihnger Family was one thai will live long in the merny. li was a tremendous day thai I hope all young breedeTS goi plenty from and imponandy ¢nioye4t thank yw everyone involved itl the day such a su¢¢ess. I am sure many of the young breeders are 1wkn.ng fixward to this years event to bc kindly hosd by EsnN)r in North weS on the first weekend of August. The major Sllm shows were well attctKkd by our Charolais brceders and there were sorne quality canle across all the age groups, the kn"ghli8hts for me had io bt the interbreed results. Balrnylc Sandy. the Beef Champion of Champions for the Connolly Family ai Balmoral, "enick Thor Reserve Inierbrt£d Champion at ik Royal Highland. winning the Group of Four the Yorkshire and then a tremendous run of results * th¢ Royal Welsh winning the Team of Five, the Te&n of Three from one Exhibitor for Brailes Lives1k aThJ the cOntiet)l Beef Bre¢deT Yowig Bull Cl for Kevin ThoJll&%. I would like to thaDk those exhibitOTS. siewd& and judges withoul whom the shows would sittlply not be the SpecCle that Ihey are. In additiotk 10 those you see out in the show ring. a real SFt¢ial thanks Th¢•ls LO be given to those who go over and alM)ve behitKI the Scenes. looking after the stand5 and keeping cxhibiiOfS and memb¢rs a]ike well fed and watered whilst a150 promoting the breed for all our èenefit. Throughout ihe year we have had grxml shows of t115 ai the Sales with some strong averages, no doubt undeqjinned by the sttrngih (pf the trade for the Charolais cross cajves through the store ring righi across the Britith Isles. The trne highlight for me was the £8.470 average achieved * Siirling in Ftbruary. bui rn0s1 imwrtanily the strong averages this spring have Fe udeIlled by high ckaxance raw, d¢moJwTauDg the styong comJnercial demand. On ihe Subjeci of sa]es we have had two very nothble d[$31 sai¢s, b)th her(ts detnonsrraied the passion of iwo gcntlefften who were "Charolais to the core" and gave so mlleh noi only (o their own herds bui also the breed as a whole. In August, at the Coolnaslce dispersal in Ba]lymena. the herd drew buyers from all over the Briiish Isles and was re5tamcnt to the high regard in which Mi Crawford was held. November saw the GretnalM)use dispersal and what a day for breed il was: the packed ringside and trernendous caille cuITninated in (or average5 and rtew female breed A fitting tribu Ajasd.r who had given 5ts much to the Charolais breed and lery over years. November also Saw Sian Sharp ioiD us and what an imrtthte impaa th had on out Jvenising and breed prornotiTr). I would like to ihatlk Sian foi the work and ideas she iKU8ht with her but many of you know Sian has decided the role is not for her and we wish Sian ail the best for the fijtyjre. As a society one of our kty rolts is io manage the integnty of the herd book. over the past 12 months we have llt)dertsken a number of herd inS10n5 atld intrUCed a new wling that if a calf is not rcgistered with 27 days then il Is eligible io be enteied into a society sale.
