Utah Cattlewomen's Association

Join UCWA

The Utah CattleWomen's Association was founded February 1947 as the Utah Cowbelles. Edna Montgomery was the first president. It was created to be an auxiliary to the Utah Cattlemen's Association and to promote the welfare of the Beef Industry, create friendship among members, and to help promote beef education. In 1986 it became the Utah CattleWomen’s Association. Membership in the Utah CattleWomen’s Association (UCWA) is for women who are interested in the welfare of the cattle industry. You do not have to own cows or live on a ranch to become a member.
