Oklahoma CattleWoman named Vice President of the American National CattleWomen
HOUSTON – Past Oklahoma CattleWoman president Ruth Coffey has been named the American National CattleWomen (ANCW) Vice President. Coffey, of Springer, Okla., was named to the position at the ANCW Convention in Houston, Feb. 1, 2022. Over the next three years, Coffey will support the initiatives of the ANCW along with fellow officers President Reba Mazak of Florida, and President-Elect Pamela Griffin of Arizona.
Coffey, along with husband, Chuck, and their children run the Double C Cattle Company in south central Oklahoma, a fifth-generation cow calf operation. The Coffeys were recipients of the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association Environmental Stewardship Award Program (ESAP) in 2020. ESAP strives to recognize “outstanding stewardship practices and conservation achievements of U.S. cattle producers”. Both Ruth and Chuck have been active in the cattle industry for many years.
Prior to this position, Coffey served in the role of ANCW Region IV Director from 2021 to now. She was also named the ANCW Promoter of the Year in 2020, Oklahoma CattleWoman of the Year in 2019 and served as the OCW President from 2017-2019.
Coffey was joined by other Oklahoma CattleWomen members at the ANCW Convention and the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association Convention this week in Houston. This convention serves as a great place to network as well as receive industry updates and visit the largest cattle industry tradeshow.
