The American Sheep Industry Association Young Entrepreneurs Committee - in conjunction with the American Lamb Board - will be holding a Summer Tour on Aug. 5-7 in northern Colorado.

The tour will be based in Loveland, Colo., and stop at some of the most innovative feeding operations in the country, discuss artificial insemination technology and embryo transfer, view the processing sector in Greeley, Colo., and learn about wildlife research and lamb flavor in Fort Collins, Colo.

The full agenda and application are available at www.sheepusa.org. Space is limited to the first 20 participants to sign up and applicants must be active sheep producers between 25 and 35 years of age. Applications are due by July 13, so interested producers should apply as soon as possible.
