The Jackson County Stockmen's Association organizes a work day twice a year, bringing in a veterinarian to a central location so that small scale ranchers can get their animals tested, vaccinated and checked for pregnancy. This Work Day was April 27, 2019.

Marty Daniels Jr. is President of the Jackson County Stockmen's Association, and tells how the JCSA supports local agriculture and animal husbandry. Dina Cantrell, JC Brand Inspector explains her job and tells of cattle rustling in the 1950s. Nathan Jackson is General Manager of the KBar Ranch and President of the Oregon Cattlemen's Association. Jon Elliott is the JCSA legislative advocate and Randy Wolf is a local rancher and is active with the Jackson County Wolf Committee. Linda Anderson represents a long time, large scale cattle family, whose daughter Marty is taking on more and more of the work of the family business. And Leslie Richardson is the veterinarian, the star of the show.
