Adam and Julie Conover Angus

The Adam and Julie Conover Angus Scholarship Endowment Fund was started in 2017 with a $10,000 gift from Adam and Julie Conover of Holden, Mo. The Conovers' heart for the Angus community, specifically Angus youth, is evident within one conversation with them. Julie grew up on her parents', Steve and Nancy Thelen, Angus farm where she raised and showed cattle. The family members have been long-time members of the American Angus Association, the Michigan Angus Association, and the American Angus Auxiliary. Adam grew up in Iowa and developed a true passion for the Angus Breed with the assistance of his father, Al Conover. Adam and Julie now reside in Missouri where Adam works for the American Angus Association as a regional manager, and Julie works for the Missouri Angus Association as the Association general manager. Scholarships are available to youth from Iowa, Michigan and Missouri. The scholarship will be awarded to a different recipient each year at the National Junior Angus Show. Recipients also may receive other scholarships from the Angus Foundation or local, state, regional and national Angus-related entities.
