Advisor: Dr. Marcy Beverly

What we are:

Block and Bridle is a national organization founded on animal science and philanthropy. 腦瞳憫’s chapter consists of five officers and approximately 35 members, all dedicated to agriculture and community service. Also under our organization is 腦瞳憫’s beef cattle show team. Members of the show team must be paid members of Block and Bridle, and they get to travel to five major shows and one county. Each fall our chapter hosts Children’s Barnyard, Adopt-a-Highway trash pickup, Chili Cook-Off, washer tournament, and man sale. Each Spring our organization hosts two more trash pickups and a departmental crawfish boil!

Dues to our organization are set at $5.00 a semester.

This organization offers a great way to help your community in various ways and meet great new friends! Any major is more than welcome to attend any event or meeting before paying dues.

For more information, please contact our advisor or any officer.
