Major Emphasis : To promote Santa Gertrudis and STAR 5 cattle to commercial breeders of all breeds in Texas and the USA. We also put high emphasis on the promotion of our Juniors and the Junior Association, because the Juniors are the future breeders of Premier and SGBl. Support for our Junior Members comes through our annual silent auction, which helps fund scholarships as well as Junior Shows.
