Jarold Callahan Lasting Legacy

Consistent with his belief of leaving it better than he found it, past chairman, Jarold Callahan, began laying the foundation for a Lasting Legacy in the fall of 2023. He challenged our team to begin planning a capital campaign to ensure the long term success of Cattlemen’s Congress by focusing on the aspects of it that make it unique and valuable to the cattle industry. 

Today, in his honor, we are carrying this challenge forward and are pleased to announce the Jarold Callahan Lasting Legacy capital campaign.

Jarold believed in investing not just in cattle, but in people. He had a unique ability to bring individuals together, inspiring them to achieve their best. His legacy lives on through Cattlemen’s Congress as a premier event in the industry.

The Lasting Legacy will invest in our future leaders. The capital campaign will invest in:
• The Jarold Callahan Collegiate Livestock Judging Contest
• The Cattlemen’s Congress Internship Program
• New Marketing Opportunities for Cattlemen and Cattlewomen at Cattlemen’s Congress

Your contribution to the Jarold Callahan Lasting Legacy supports Jarold’s vision and the future of the Cattlemen’s Congress. Whether your donation is large or small, we are grateful for your support in continuing Jarold’s legacy and advancing the cattle and agriculture industry.
