President's Message
Marie Blake
W
e finished off 2012 with a bang by
h o st i n g t h e Wo r l d G a l l o way
Congress in Guelph, Ontario with over 120
guests from twelve countries. It always
great to visit with Galloway breeders from
around the world. Remember, you are
always welcome in Canada. It was a great
success, thanks to the hard work of the
organizing committee.
We enjoyed a mild winter in south western
Ontario, which made calving a little easier
for many breeders. January saw a couple
of breeders take cattle to Denver, Colorado
for the National Western Stock Show.
These Canadian cattle were very
successful in both the show ring and sales
arena. We would like to thank our
American hosts for their wonderful
hospitality during our stay.
We had our annual Galloway meeting in
Red Deer, Alberta in July. New things were
proposed and we look forward to future
advancements in the breed. There will be
a new fee schedule for 2014. We also have
interest from junior members showing
Galloway’s in British Columbia.
We visited several local breeder’s and
received great hospitality. It was
wonderful to see how well the grass grows
in the Red Deer area.
The fall continued to be busy with fall fairs
and farm shows in the East and Farmfair
International in Edmonton. Galloway
breeders did well here. (See the Alberta
Report.) We also have an increase in the
number of juniors showing Galloway’s this
year. So good luck to all exhibitors.
My youngest daughter, Patti, had the
opportunity to visit Australia earlier in the
year and participate in a few Galloway
shows. Mnay thanks for to the warm
welcome she received.
I hope everyone has a great 2014.
Best wishes fellow Galloway members,

News from the UK
The Galloway Cattle Society of Great Britain and Ireland
A
s I write this, the trees are just changing
from the bright green to the lovely vibrant
shades of autumn, we are all sad to leave
summer behind, as it has been an “easy”
summer compared to last year. After the
tribulation of a very wet 2012, this summer
has been so much easier for all, stock have
been content on summer pastures, harvest
has happened when it should and with cattle
and sheep still enjoying this mild spell there
has not been the need to buy extra feeding.
Galloways here in the UK and Ireland have
also enjoyed a successful and busy year, the
year starts with the spring show and sale held
in Castle Douglas, once again Galloways were
in demand, vendors were happy with the
trade and some purchasers went away empty
handed. It was great to see the McMillan
family win the trophy after trying for all these
years. We welcomed many overseas visitors
to the show this year and we would be
delighted to help plan your trip to the show
or at any other time of the year.
All our activities are posted on our web site
www.gallowaycattlesociety.co.uk and Facebook, including updates on our Young
Members Group, this Group has great
enthusiasms and will be travelling to
Germany’s “Green Week”, if you see them say
hello.
Now the year is nearly over, our thoughts are
turning to next year, we would be delighted
to welcome you to our main sale held in
Castle Douglas on 13th and 14th of February
and we look forward to meeting as many of
you at the World Congress in Germany and of
course welcoming you to the UK for the World
Congress in 2016.
Wishing you all a very happy and successful
2014.

Oklahoma and her family, a“Mason Jar” of
various Beltie and animal items sold for

plus $1,800 from a Driftwood donated

Australian Galloway Association Report – 2013
A
ustralia’s climate has once again
presented challenges for all cattle
breeders. With record-breaking heat,
severe bushfires, extreme rainfall and
damaging flooding being experienced
Australia wide over the past twelve
months, many people have faced testing
times managing feed reserves and
keeping their cattle in good order.
Despite these challenges, the Galloway
cattle presented at field days, carcase
competitions and shows were a real credit
to their owners, and great examples of the
Galloway family. Galloways were
represented at many field days across
Australia, and also presented at shows
around the nation, with some fabulous
results. There were Galloways and
Miniature Galloways featuring in the
interbreed results at the Royal Melbourne
Show and Royal Bathurst Shows in
particular, as well as at the many regional
shows. Galloways have also featured in
the placings at carcase competitions at
the Sydney Royal Easter Show and the
National Beef Show, doing particularly
well in the virtual taste tests.
The Galloway Family National Show and
Sale was held in conjunction with the
22
National Beef Show at Bendigo, Victoria in
May 2013. It is many years since the last
National Show and Sale, which was held
at Albury, and it was great to see the level
of support received from exhibitors and
the many spectators who made the effort
to attend. Galloways, Belted Galloways
and Miniature Galloways were judged in
the own classes. Southern Cross El Toro, a
black Galloway bull owned by Glenburn
Station Pty Ltd was awarded Supreme
Galloway exhibit. The five year old bull
weighed in a 1,103 kg and boasted an eye
muscle area of 136cm. The judge
commented that he is hard to fault, with
a good front end, natural fleshing and
being structurally correct. There were 9
Belted Galloway exhibitors, with Pine Gully
Park Gwendolyn, owned by the
Heazlewood Family, being awarded
Supreme Belted Galloway exhibit. This
heifer was 17 months old, and the judge
commented on her strong spine and extra
length of body. The Supreme Miniature
Galloway exhibit was Wilkamdai Giovanni,
owned by Cameron and Di Woolfe. This 28
month old miniature Belted Galloway bull
weighed in at 650kg, with a 120cm eye
muscle area. These three Supreme
Champions were then brought together
with Southern Cross El Toro being
awarded Supreme Galloway Family
Exhibit.
The Association’s Annual General Meeting
was held in conjunction with the National
Show and Sale, and approximately 25% of
the membership attended. This was a
great result and the Committee was
pleased that so many made the effort to
attend both the AGM and National Show
and Sale, making it a very successful
weekend. Members were advised at this
meeting of the instigation of two
perpetual awards – The Shiralee
Tomahawk Memorial Trophy to be
awarded annually to the owner of a Belted
Galloway achieving the highest points in a
carcase competition, and the Frank Allen
Memorial Trophy also to be awarded
annually to a Galloway, Belted Galloway or
miniature Galloway achieving the highest
points in a carcase competition. It is to be
hoped that these trophies will encourage
more members to enter their cattle in
carcase competitions.
Please contact the Association if you are
visiting Australia and we will be happy to
put you in touch with any breeders in the
areas you are visiting.
