A Few Words from CLA President Nolan Stone

At the 2016 Colorado Livestock Association Annual Meeting in April, CLA members elected Nolan Stone to fill the role as President.  Nolan, is a fifth generation Colorado cattlemen who was raised near Karval, 17 miles southeast of Punkin Center. For the past 17 years, Nolan has worked for JBS Five Rivers Cattle Feeding, LLC and is the General Manager of the Kuner Feedyard near Kersey.

“As society evolves, it is becoming more important to have a unified voice representing our message to the public and in the government arenas. CLA does a great job of opening doors and allowing its members to deliver their message wherever it might matter the most,” President Stone stated. “As a group of diversified protein producers, we might not always agree on the detail of every message, but we all understand that a message coming from our broad membership packs a harder punch than each of us can individually. I hope to continue to grow membership and seek more opinions and ideas from the producers of Colorado.”

When he isn’t working, family time for Nolan and his wife, Jodi, means watching their two kids Shae and Dylan play softball and baseball, watching Shae show steers and spending time managing their family’s cattle business; a diversified spring and fall calving cow herd and stocker operation on leased ranches throughout Colorado. Nolan will serve as President of Colorado Livestock Association for two years. Nolan will complete his term at the 2018 CLA Annual Meeting in Loveland and will become the Immediate Past President.
