The clinic will begin at 5:30 p.m. with a catered barbecue meal.

“This year’s program topics include a cattle trichamonaisis situation update and associated regulations, a beef cattle market outlook and the latest information on cattle worming medications,” he said. “We want to invite anyone and everyone with an interest in the Central Texas beef cattle industry to attend.”

Individual pre-registration is $5 by June 16 and $10 thereafter. The fee covers the catered meal.
