ELKMONT COWS WOW AT JUNIOR BEEF EXPO

Elkmont had several of our young cattlemen and ladies participate in the Alabama Junior Beef Expo 2015 in Montgomery, Alabama.  Some of us are athletic families, some are musical families but some Elkmont folk are cattle families.  One of these families is Lovell Farms.


HOW DID THEY DO?
Jacob Lovell took first place in his commercial beef class. His Angus heifer is about a year old and weighs 700 pounds. One of the judges told Jacob that 

this young cow, Della Rose, has very promising potential as when she reaches maturity. She was purchased from John Bryan. Jacob is in fifth grade at Elkmont. He is the son of Steve and Emily Lovell.

Jacob's registered Angus heifer, Katie placed second in her class. This was her last show and motherhood is in her future.

Natalie Lovell placed third in her Angus class. This was her heifer's, MJ, last show as well. Hopefully, calves are in her future too.
Natalie is the daughter of Derrick and Wendi Lovell. Nick Lovell served as the mentor/coach for these three junior beef expo participants.


Abby Lovell was a rookie this year. Showing for the first time in the commercial class, her heifer, Fancy, placed sixth in her class, coming in was a show weight of eight hundred pounds.

Abby is in seventh grade at Elkmont. She is the daughter of Steve and Emily Lovell.
