Due to the exceptional interest in ANCW's Women in Ranching Education and Development (WIRED) program, many of you are considering hosting a WIRED event in 2025. We would like to invite you to join us at 6pm (Central) on Wednesday, April 24th to discuss what hosting an event requires, what the planning process will look like and what you have in mind for your event. WIRED would be nothing without our fabulous sponsors and hosts - both locally and nationally - but each event is truly a new adventure. Due to the volunteer nature of the program and the outstanding response, we may not be able to facilitate all events on the first request. We want to ensure our 2025 events provide a broad range of educational opportunities in diverse locations.
Anyone who is interested in attending the call should email wired@ancw.org for meeting details and more program information so we can keep track of who is wanting to be considered. Please share this invitation with anyone you know that might be considering hosting.
You can begin arriving on Thursday evening and get settled in at the Osage Creek Lodge. Enjoy dinner with friends, new and old, in a relaxed atmosphere before all the fun begins.
The Friday tours will include guest speakers and stops at a lavender farm where we will enjoy lunch before heading on to Osage Creek Cultivation Center for a tour of their facilities and how it benefits cattle in the area. This is an 18+ optional tour that is free to attend. There will also be free transportation to those that wish to go to downtown Eureka Springs during this time.
Saturday will be ANCW business meetings, region elections and an ANCW update from ANCW President-Elect Nikki Weston before heading home.
Region meetings are where life-long friendships are made and a place to refill your “tank” with enthusiasm to share your beef story and advocate for beef in your hometown.
You don’t have to be an ANCW member to attend. Come join us and bring a friend!
Questions can be directed to Wendy Pettz 479-738-7367 (wlpettz@gmail.com) or Geneice McCall 479-981-4132.
