CCA is working to strengthen collegiate membership in the organization. Collegiate groups, such as Colorado State University’s Block & Bridle Club, have joined CCA as fully-recognized affiliates. When students seek individual membership, they can enjoy the same voting and participation privileges as other CCA members.

"Our goal is to have young people take an active part in CCA so that they can see how their knowledge of industry issues and involvement help drive change and safeguard the state’s cattle industry," said Terry Fankhauser, CCA director of special projects.

Collegiate membership in CCA is $25 annually, and collegiate group membership as a CCA affiliate is $75. For more information, contact Terry Fankhauser at the CCA office, (303) 431-6422 or cocattlemens@qwest.net.
