Meet the Advisors

The Missouri Club Calf Association has been blessed by great volunteers over the years, including Samantha Graves, Michelle Meyer, Melinda Bastian, Taylor Boland, Bailey Dent, and Brianne Bishop. Thank you for your service to the Association!

Current advisors Caroline, Dustin and Vanessa grew up showing and have continued to stay active in the show world through their family operations, careers, and contribution to youth organizations.

Vanessa Lammers

 
 

Hi! My name is Vanessa Lammers. I am originally from Pilot Grove, MO where I was raised on my family’s row crop and cow-calf operation. Throughout my years in FFA, I found my niche in the livestock industry by showing crossbred heifers with the occasional Simmental heifer sprinkled in.

I am a 2021 graduate of Northwest Missouri State University where I obtained a bachelors degree in Agricultural Business. I now reside in Chillicothe, MO and work full time for Trans Ova Genetics.

I am excited to serve in this role and to connect with junior livestock exhibitors!
