Heart of Missouri Limousin Breeders Association is proud to continue the C.O.D.Y. program this year. Any HMBLA member may donate a heifer to an area youth, ages 8 to a senior in high school of their locale. The youth becomes responible for feeding, halter breaking and caring for the heifer. Youth will be required to show the animal a minimum of two local level youth shows, and then will be entered into the final show which will be at the annual HMLBA production sale.

This is in no way, is meant to conflict with the Missouri futurity show, or interfere with the Junior Limousin members in any manner. However any junior member is eligible to participate.
The C.O.D.Y. Program is a tool to help area youth who do not have the opportunity to develop skills on their own and for breeders to showcase thier livestock in their community.  The C.O.D.Y. Program has been focused in the Limousin World Magazine, and is proved to be an educational and self-confidence booster for all youth invloved. To participate either as a breeder or youth, in the C.O.D.Y. Program feel free to email Dave Vote or call 417-532-7482 or Dr. Rick Mizer at 417-588-7457 or John Weiser at 417-235-8661 or Jack Glendenning at 417-588-903 or Ben Bennett at 417-831-2285 or Jim Brown at 417-993-4483 LEFT - C O D Y Participant Rachel Phillips of Morrisville wins the Grand Champion Limousin bull portion at the Willard fair
