Shelly Piper
Vice Chairperson / QLD State Representative

My involvement with Angus cattle started when my family established our own Angus stud, Trio Angus in 2003.

My involvement with Angus Youth includes being an Ambassador, attending Roundups & Leadership Clinic, winning the 2008 MSU Scholarship and being on the Angus Youth Management Committee.

Last year I finished studying Rural Science at UNE and I’m now based in QLD working for Kerwee Lot Feeders and their marketing division, Stockyard Beef.

This year as QLD rep I would like to try and offer more opportunities to QLD Angus Youth members, along with working on establishing a more active and professional national Angus Youth Alumni group.

Several Angus members have been involved with organising the first northern Angus Youth event for year with the QLD Junior Angus Show being held on the 24th & 25th April in Bell.

Another positive for our northern Angus Youth members is that the 2011 RoundUp is being held in Glen Innes NSW which may make it more accessible for some of our members.

If any QLD members have suggestions for the Angus Youth program or want to be more involved please feel free to contact me (0428 315 331 trioangus@gmail.com)
