OKLAHOMA CITY, OK–The Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association is preparing for the 66th Annual Convention and Trade Show, scheduled for July 20-21, 2018. The event will be held at the Embassy Suites in Norman, Okla.

“Our convention committee wanted this year’s convention to focus on business. Since it’s the 66th annual convention, our theme will revolve around Route 66. While many things have changed in the beef industry since the OCA was officially formed in 1953, OCA continues to provide firm, steadfast support to our membership,” said OCA President Weston Givens.

Convention attendees will enjoy a large trade show along with the opportunity to attend five sessions of Cattlemen’s College with varying topics for cattlemen to gain knowledge. Discussion around OCA policy and an OCA General Business meeting will also take place. The final event of convention is the awards banquet where outstanding cattlemen and their accomplishments will be recognized and celebrated.  

A list of featured speakers and agenda will be available May 1, 2018. Convention will open June 1, 2018. For those interested in exhibiting in the Trade Show, call Shari at the OCA office at 405-235-4391.

“Please plan to join your fellow cattlemen at the 66th Annual OCA Convention and Trade Show,” Givens said. “Each time I participate in an event where there are fellow cattlemen around, I learn something, I make a new friend and business contact and I come home with a renewed sense of pride in the business I’ve chose – the Beef Business.”
