JOIN US! The more the merrier!
Every year EMRA hosts multiple group gatherings that are focused on networking and learning from one another. Typically these gatherings start back up in the fall and are dotted through the winter to get us all geared up for the year ahead. Our first fall gathering is on October 28th in Miles City from 11-2pm. More details below
Education Committee Update
EMRA education committee is made up of EMRA member volunteers that meet monthly to organize education workshops, tours, and gatherings throughout the year. Currently the committee is organizing small in-person gatherings, EMRA annual meeting & kick-off, and next summer’s stockmanship workshop. Do you have topics or speaker ideas? Reach out, we would enjoy hearing them!
