Beef proclamation signed by Vermilion Parish Police Jury
The Vermilion Parish Cattlewomen’s Association, along with the reigning Queen, Thibodeaux, and 4-H Beef exhibitors, Isaac Duhon, Summit Saltzman, and Isabella Choate attended a Police Jury meeting requesting that the parish proclaim that Beef Month be celebrated in June.
Since it is the mission of the Cattlemen and Cattlewomen to support youth in beef education, the organization is here to encourage and support beef promotion and awareness.
The 4-H exhibitors gave a presentation about the history, nutritional value, an economic value of beef to our community and thanked the jurors for supporting the 4-H program and the beef industry. Police Jury President Jason Picard signed the Beef Proclamation on Wednesday, May 17, 2023.
