gether. My co-chair Ron Nolan along with Charles Burns,

Danielle Sullivan, David Milliner, Sophie Wotten, Sara Van-

standing individual, along with the genetics available that are

very unique and limited. Treat yourself to one of the sporting

events, art work, or a helicopter ride. For the youngsters in

your family there are several lots they would be interested in.

For 2015 the FCSF will be sending 15% of the Fundraiser auction directly to the YCS program to assist in running of their 2015-16 activities. Here are just some of the great things we

hear back from past YCSA members about this great program

Through the YCSA program wesincerely appreciate the lifelong friendships

we have developed.The opportunities and personal growth we experienced as a

result of the YCSA experience is unquantifiable and has been a benefitwe still have to this very day. Lynsey Milliner 1994-2012 & Ashleigh Milliner-Cowan 1993-2004

During my time in the YCS program I learned how to speak inpublic, meet new people, present myself professionally, workhard towards a goal, be a modest winner and a respectful loser.All which came in handy when I was hired on at the age of 23 asa manager in a retirement home after attending the University of Guelph. I owe my success to the wonderful YCSAprogram and the generosity of its members, leaders and scholarships. - Chelsea O'Connor, YCSA Alumni 1997 to 2012

Looking back, the YCSA was a huge part ofmy life. Whether it was showing cattle, learn-ing how to work with others, building confidence or making lifelong friends, this program has helped me and so many othersbuild character traits that are integral to suc-cess. Working alongside with the CSA board,the YCSA is a great contributor to shaping ourfuture agricultural leaders. - Scott Matthews

YCSA as a youth organization, helps young people build a strongfoundation for their future, such as thinking on your feet, attention todetails and networking. The YCSA program helped bring our familytogether as we traveled to events across the country. As past active

members in the YCSA, we learnedskills and confidence that helped usparticipate in exchange programs,excel in 4-H and our education, whichhas served us both well and continueto help achieve our careers. Trish Wooddisse-Kelly &

Josh Wooddisse

As a shy kid, my Grandparents enrolled me in YCS when I wasabout 10 years old, in hopes of bringing me out of my shell andtrying to get me more interested in the cattle industry. I sat on theOYCS and National YCS Boards for many years, traveled acrossthe country and overseas and met many International Young Simmentalers too! The many friendships andfun times, still bring a smile to my face. Ontop of that, the technical, leadership, andcommunication skills I’ve learnt from the program have led me to the many successesI’ve had so far in my career.” – Katie Wood, Ont YCSA Alumni 1993-2010

ELM TREE MS DAMON 12B has beenselected from the strongest replacementheifer pen we have produced to date. Withher moderate frame, super deep quarterand attractive lines, she is built right fortoday’s industry. She is the first calf out ofour Crossroad Radium female who wasnamed Champion Female at the NAILEFullblood show in 2012. Her sire, DFMRidge’s Damon has been our go-to heiferbull for many years, siring calves with consistently low birth weights and the maternal strength to develop into topproducing females. Bred April 7 to Anchor D Imax for anearly calf.

Elm Tree Farms is a fifth generation family farm, owned andoperated by Glenn and Pamela Wotten with daughters Mariahand Sophie. Located in southern Ontario, their cattle operationstarted out as a commercial cow/calf herd of over 100 cows. The purchase of their first Fleckvieh Simmental bull from D.Maronda Simmentals in 1993 formed a strong Simmental influence in the cowherd, eventually becoming the heart of theprogram.

Each year the Friends of Canadian Simmental Foundation designates a “Friend of the Foundation.” This individual / family has generously donated a bred heifer tothe Foundation Auction. Their commitment to the Foundation through this gesture is

greatly appreciated and recognized throughout the year.
