Canada Experience

The JRA and the Canadian Junior Angus Association work together to have an “exchange” between juniors to attend the CJAA GOAL conference and a JRA Event.

If you are interested in applying for “sponsorship” from the JRA to attend, please read the following requirements and send in application if you are eligible.

The GOAL conference is held over President’s Day weekend and focuses on leadership and industry development.

"GOAL was an amazing opportunity and I am so happy that I had the opportunity to attend. Learning about the Canadian Angus industry and the similarities/differences between it and the United States, was really interesting. I had a great time meeting and getting to know the Canadian juniors and I would urge anyone who gets the chance to attend this conference to do so."

Requirements:

  • Must be a current, active member of the JRA
  • Must be at least 18 years of age or travel with a parent
  • Must have attended a minimum of two Round-Ups
  • A passport is required for international travel.

Selection will be based on JRA involvement on the national level.

Eligible JRA members must submit a completed application by Nov. 1 via e-mail to the Junior Programs Coordinator at juniors@redangus.org.
