THE OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE BELTED GALLOWAY SOCIETY, I N C .
Arkansas and Louisiana Bound
President Jon Bednarski
After a month of catching up at our farm, Sylvia and I headed for
Russellville, Arkansas, to the location of Galloway Farm and
owners Bill and Judy Galloway. Arkansas has 134 registered
Belted Galloway cattle and 11 member farms.
We were to meet Bill and Judy at their home in town and then
drive a few miles out to visit their farm. As we pulled into their
main street home, I knew that Sylvia and I were in for a special
treat. As I knocked on the door, I
noticed a National Register of
Historic Places plaque to the side.
Being passionate about unique
homes, I couldn't wait to view the
inside of their beautiful home.
Bill and Judy bought their 1909
historic home in 1976 and they
are the home’s fourth owners of
it.
Bill, a dermatologist, and Judy, a retired pharmacist, lead very
active lives. Bill keeps very busy on the farm and enjoys
kayaking. He also collects antique banjos, fiddles, mandolins, and
guitars and he plays with a local band. Judy has been hands-on
with the extensive ongoing restoration of their home. She still
seems to find time to keep up the beautiful gardens that surround
their home.
After a tour of their magnificent home, we headed out for a visit
of their 62-acre farm, which they bought in 1984. Bill originally
raised Simmentals, but after several years, he wanted to switch
breeds. Interestingly, while on a skiing trip to Colorado he noticed
a Beltie bumper sticker on a car and, since his last name is
Galloway, he thought maybe this was the change he was searching
for!
The Galloway Farm’s first cattle came from Mississippi around
1995 and another came from Marben Farms in Connecticut. The
herd grew over the years, but with the drought the last few years,
Bill has reduced the herd to 25 Belties. He has no problems selling
his heifers and steers throughout the surrounding states. After a
nice tour of his farm and his very efficient barn, we headed south
towards Louisiana. I could see the effects of the drought that Bill
was talking about. As the highway joined up with the mighty
Mississippi River, we saw water levels 15'-20' below normal. The
extensive levee system that has been built along the river is
impressive in how it protects the thousands upon thousands of
acres of cropland. From cotton, and rice fields, to corn and
soybeans, you can see how diverse and important farming is in
this part of the country.
Arriving in Louisiana, a state that has 107 registered Belted
Galloway cattle and six member farms, we turned west, heading
to Jonesville and Boggy Bayou Belties and Paints Farm. Don
Enlow, the owner, met us at his entrance and prepared a lunch of
pecan wood-smoked Beltie Burgers for us to enjoy. Wow!
Don bought his first Belties in 2004, but found it a challenge to
locate animals to build his herd. His first Belties came from
Froggy Hollow’s Farm in Mississippi and Verlee Farm in North
Carolina. Don, who has been a pilot for over 40 years, has flown
and has inspected gas pipelines across the US for several major
oil companies. His current position
as a pilot is allowing him more free
time to spend on the farm.
Don was actually introduced to
the breed while flying in
Wisconsin many years ago. Don
was no stranger to farming, as he
had raised over 300 Boer goats on
the farm prior to having cattle. As
his farm name states, he has a few
paint horses. I was impressed by
Don’s many hobbies: growing fruits, berries, and pecan trees, to
making handmade wooden roux and rice spoons from various
wood species. I'm really amazed at how active, versatile and
involved our members are and Don is no exception.
Although Don's herd is not large, he has been an enthusiastic
supporter of the breed and has sold and delivered Belties to many
states to help potential members get started.
Next month, Sylvia and I will continue on this trip with a
Mississippi Farm visit and a stop in Nashville, Tennessee at an
historic farm that also has Belties.

From Vic’s Office
Executive Director Vic Eggleston
All members should have received their membership renewal notice by the time you read
this. Revenue from membership dues provides
the bulk of the funds our organization uses to
fulfill its mission of promoting Belted Galloway cattle. The
Council is working to educate the public about the merits of
our breed and to provide to our members, resources that will
enhance the value of their registered stock. Receiving membership dues payments early in the year helps the Council
determine the monetary resources that are available to best
fulfill its mission.
Included in your membership renewal package is a letter
from the Belted Galloway Foundation President, Bruce Anderson, identifying the functions of the Foundation and the
benefits it can provide through your generous donations.
Please consider the Foundation’s objectives and include whatever amount you can along with your membership dues payment.
During December, I finalized all the Lifetime Point Awards and
Show Point Awards totals. Included in this issue are the Lifetime
Point Awards. During February we will announce the 2012 Show
Point Awards.
2013 Belties Unlimited Show
The Belties Unlimited Show returns to Iowa City, Iowa
after a three-year absence, on Saturday, June 15, 2013. Our
blow-and-go type show will be held at the Johnson County
Fairgrounds in Iowa City. Blow-and-go means washed and
blown out but no paints or adhesives are used. We encourage
participants to clip their animals. It’s a great way for new exhibitors to begin showing. Prior shows held in 2008 and 2010
were fun, family shows with exhibitors, including several first
-time participants, from four states.
Iowa City is in east-central Iowa, at the junction of Interstate 80 and US Highway 218. This show is hosted by Greg
and Pat Hipple and is sponsored by the Great Lakes Belted
Galloway Association. For information prior to the release of
registrations for the show, feel free to contact Greg and Pat at
(319) 624-2812 or sbelties@southslope.net.

In Memoriam
Robert Flynn
December 1, 1941 - December 1, 2012
Robert Flynn of Pittsboro, North Carolina, a true child of
God, entered the gates of Heaven on December 1, 2012 at his
getaway in Emerald Isle, while he was with his beloved wife
of 49 ½ years, Dianne Childress Flynn. Robert has two sons,
Michael Flynn of Mebane, who is married to Andrea, and
Robbie Flynn of Burlington. Robert has three grandchildren,
Brittany, Jordan, and Bryanna Flynn, whom he loved unconditionally.
Robert's life radiated a glowing spirit that he used to guide
and teach his family. He was a "gentle giant" who touched
the lives of everyone with his kindness and helpfulness and
the unselfish generosity that was truly from his heart. His
drive led him to live his life to the fullest and beyond the
limits that most men ever realize. Robert was a long-time
member of Edgewood Baptist Church, where he served as
deacon, Sunday school teacher, choir member, and chairman
of the Building and Grounds Committee. His life was a true
testament to God.
Lastly, Robert worked for Fitch Creations, the developer of
Fearrington Village, for almost 40 years. He was loved by his
co-workers as well as the residents of Fearrington Village.
Fitch Creations/Fearrington Village purchased Belted Galloway cattle 25-plus years ago. Robert researched the breed
and traveled to Virginia and Maine to purchase their foundation stock. Robert was passionate about Belted Galloway
cattle and served on Council, various committees and later as
vice-president. Robert also served as the Southern Belted
Galloway Cattle Association’s president. A feather in Robert’s cap was the fact that Fearrington cattle are shown and
sold nationally, and continue to provide foundation stock to
new breeders.
As the owner of Fearrington Village stated, "Robert radiated a calm, positive energy that instantly built trust, and an
intuitive common sense that will be missed. He was a rock to
so many people whose lives he touched."
Harry T. Burn Award
The Harry T. Burn Award was established and funded in
1984 by his widow in memory of the late Harry T. Burn, Tennessee, one of the Society’s early very dedicated breeders.
Many breeders may recognize Mr. Burn’s breeding stock in
their pedigrees identified by the prefix Hathburn. His nephew,
James E. Burn, was president of the Society when he announced that the award, a large perpetual trophy and an engraved individual plaque, would be given to persons singled
out as having provided outstanding support and promotion to
the Belted Galloway breed. The award is not annual; rather, it
is presented from time to time as merited.
We invite the membership to submit a letter of recommendation about an individual who they feel is deserving of this
distinguished award. Letters may be submitted to Vic Eggleston’s office for the review of Council.

The National Belted Galloway Show, AGM and Premium Sale
The Belted Galloway Society, Inc. experienced a marvelous
turnout for the Annual General Meeting in Louisville, KY.
Around 125 people attended the meeting and the events at
The North American International Livestock Exposition. With
106 Belted Galloway cattle shown at the National Show, it
was reported that it is the largest Belted Galloway show in
history! It’s always fun to see our youth from across the United States showing in The Kathi Jurkowski National Junior
Show! The Belted Galloway Premium Sale was a huge success, offering quality cattle and strong bidding and sales! If
you were unable to attend the event, you were missed! But the
good news is that we are planning to do it all again in 2013!
There certainly was a plethora of activities and events to attend because The North American International Livestock
Exposition (NAILE) is the world's largest all-breed, purebred
livestock exposition. Ten different species of livestock compete in the exposition, and the purebred beef and sheep events
are the largest in the world. Beltie visitors enjoyed the Giant
Country Store and its nearly 200 commercial vendors.
The Belted Galloway Society, Inc. could not hold this event
without the work of many volunteers! We are so grateful to
our Council and the many individuals who work to make it a
positive experience for the Belted Galloway breed!
During the Annual General Meeting the membership voted
to amend the by-law regarding junior membership. Junior
membership will now be retained through the calendar year of
her/his 21st birthday.
Elections were held and returning to Council serving a 2year term are Scott Griffith (TX), Lisa Lovett (IL) and
Michelle Ogle (NJ).
The Spring Meeting will be held in Indianapolis, IN during April 2013. The Annual General Meeting will be hosted
by The Belted Galloway Society Inc. to coincide with The
National Belted Galloway Show and Premium Sale in Louisville, KY during November 2013.
Michelle Ogle ,Chair of the Show and Sale Committees
The 2012 Belted Galloway Society Premium
Sale was held on Wednesday, November 14,
2012 and was a resounding success. With 58
registered bidders present, and another 25 bidders registered online, bidding was fast and furious. This
was, not doubt, the best Premium Sale held by the Society to
date. Thanks to Sherwood Acres Beef LLC for the pre-sale
reception! During the reception, potential buyers had a chance
to view all the sale cattle, and were able to meet with the consignors.

Galloway breed is a tradition of the Society. Through promotion, we have marketed the longevity of the breed. Therefore,
we want to hear about those mature brood cows still in production in our membership’s herds. During January and February breeders are invited to nominate their mature dams who
continue to successfully raise progeny every year.
Submit your animal’s name, registration number, age, along
with her 2012 calving date. Mail or Email your submission to
Executive Director Vic Eggleston. The oldest producing dam
will be honored in a subsequent newsletter article. Her 2012
progeny will be registered or recorded compliments of the
Belted Galloway Society, Inc. Submissions for the contest
will be accepted through March 1, 2013.

A
Eggleston Presented Burn Award
Greg Hipple, Solon, Iowa wrote to the
Belted Galloway Society regarding the Harry T. Burn Award, and nominated Victor
Eggleston DVM of New Glarus, Wisconsin
for his many years of outstanding support
and promotion of the Belted Galloway breed. Council
unanimously agreed to present Dr. Eggleston the award
during the Annual General Meeting.
A selection of Greg Hipple’s nomination:
‘Few Belted Galloway breeders have accomplished such
things as Dr. Eggleston. He was a founding member of
the Great Lakes Belted Galloway Association for which
he served as a member of the Board of Directors, as well
as President. He has served the Belted Galloway Society
as a member of Council, as Vice President, and as President, recently completing his service to the Belted Galloway Foundation and currently serves as the first ever,
Executive Director of the Belted Galloway Society, Inc.
Dr. Eggleston is first and foremost an ambassador for the
Belted Galloway breed. He is a supporter of the breed
and its attributes, wherever he goes, in whatever he does.
His willingness to support the Society and the regional
groups with his experience and expertise are truly remarkable and commendable. Few people have the attributes and integrity as Dr. Eggleston. In his current position as Executive Director, he manages the business of
the Belted Galloway Society in a courteous and professional manner, and maintains a personal relationship
with the membership few could emulate.’

About advertising … Classified ads are free to members. All classified
ads are automatically placed on the Hotline on the Internet. Two-month
limit on classified insertions. Please include contact information —
name, farm, location, phone, fax and email, if any. For all emails —
place Hotline in the subject line. Please Email to executivedirector@beltie.org, Fax 608-527-4811or phone (608) 220-1091. We encourage members to submit ads the last two weeks of the month. Advertising bulls … Before advertising a young male as a breeder we must be
sure he is well conformed, tracks properly, has good legs and feet, and
exhibits good weight gains. We should have data available on his birth
weight, 205-day weaning weight, and yearling weight. If he's reached
breeding age (around 18 months), it's definitely a plus to have his semen
checked for quantity and motility.
Any data available should appear in your advertisement along with his
birth date and the names of his sire and dam. Further, it is required
that registration numbers be included on bulls advertised for sale in
the Hotline and newsletter.
