Experience Wool Firsthand
- The Collegiate Lamb Grower Club at the University of Wyoming introduces students to sheep and lamb production through industry tours, hands-on work with the Laramie Research and Extension Center, and guest speakers.
- President Jayce Allen Davis said the club covers meat and wool quality and is planning trips to the American Sheep Industry headquarters in Denver, a wool mill in Buffalo, Wyoming, and feedlots in Northern Colorado.
- Membership costs $20 to help cover trip expenses, and the club has also offered ram testing in reproduction, structure, and wool quality as a community service.
- Davis said his biggest goal is drawing more student engagement to the opportunities the club offers.
