Show Me The Angus Future

Chuck Zimmerman

National Angus Conference LogoI think one of the most interesting things about the announcement for the upcoming National Angus Conference & Tour is the logo. I had to look at it a few minutes to get it. Of course it’s been a long day and I’m tired but I was thinking “Where’s the beef?”. Then I thought it was an old Jimi Hendrix or Santana album cover but finally I can see that it’s someone staring into a crystal ball, duh.

I like it. It’s not “traditional.” It’s creative and stands out from the crowd. Way to go American Angus Association! If I can’t make the tour please send photos and info for me to post!
