153rd Colorado Cattlemen’s Association Annual Convention - New Format, Same Results

Due to state gathering restrictions, Colorado Cattlemen's Association (CCA) will be implementing an alternative series of virtual and in-person meetings for the 2020 Annual Convention and Sponsor Spotlights.  Although it’s unfortunate we cannot hold a traditional Annual Convention this year, we have revised the event to still provide educational sessions, networking opportunities, leadership recognition, and policy development.  

The Colorado CattleWomen (CCW) and the Junior Colorado Cattlemen (JCCA) will also plan to hold their business meetings in coordination with the upcoming virtual events. More information and a schedule-of-events for these meetings will be provided in the coming weeks. 

Sponsorship opportunities are still available with this new format, and create a unique opportunity to connect with CCA’s members and industry stakeholders in a new virtual and in-person setting. Please contact Sarah Dideriksen at [email protected], or at (303) 431-6422 for more information.

All of the virtual events are complementary.  For those who have reserved a hotel room at the Colorado Springs Marriott, please contact the hotel directly at 719-260-1800 by July 5th.  Additionally, CCA will be reimbursing all convention registrations.

Below is an outline of the new, revamped meeting schedule. To register, or for more information, please call the CCA office at (303) 431-6422 or email [email protected]. We look forward to seeing you online soon!
