County Corn Grower Organization Presents $500 to NCGA (1-17-01)

National Corn Growers Association Corn Board member Richard Peterson, a farmer from Mountain Lake, Minn., presented a check for $500 on behalf of the Jackson County, Minn., Corn Growers Association at the NCGA Corn Board meeting Thursday in St. Louis. The county organization presented the check for corn promotion programs.

A charter member of the NCGA and a member of the Jackson County Corn Growers Association, Peterson helped organize the County organization, the nation's third largest county organization. Jackson County is located in southwestern Minnesota and has 300 members. It is the first county organization to present money directly to NCGA.

"I want to thank Jackson County Corn Growers President Albert Henning and the Jackson County Corn Growers for recognizing the value of NCGA in making this contribution," said Peterson.
