The National Agri-Marketing Association is making plans to replace outgoing staff leader Eldon White. Current president, Stephanie Gable had this to say.
Eldon White notified the executive committee this week that he has made the decision to resign his position with NAMA to become executive vice president of the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association in Fort Worth, Texas.
We appreciate the contributions Eldon has made to our organization over the last 16 years. As we prepare to celebrate the 50th anniversary at our annual conference in a couple weeks, we have much to celebrate – an organization that is more than 3,000 professional and student members strong, representing every facet of our exciting industry.
The executive committee will work swiftly to put an interim transition plan and search process into place. As these plans are developed, we pledge to keep you informed on their progress. If you have questions, please feel free to contact me or any member of the NAMA Executive Committee. We ask in advance for your cooperation and patience as we embark on a new chapter in the history of the National Agri-Marketing Association. As always, the NAMA staff will be available to assist you with any questions you may have.
Eldon will remain with NAMA through the upcoming National Agri-Marketing Conference. He and his wife, Val, plan to relocate to Fort Worth sometime this summer.
Please join me in thanking Eldon for his contributions to NAMA and wishing him the best of luck in his new position.
