Scott Rairdan Memorial Ambassador Award

Click here for Memorial Award criteria

“Dr. Scott Rairdan was a friend to many in the Charolais industry and the Canadian and International cattle business. He grew up in the Charolais business and was a partner with his brother Jack in EXL Charolais. He also became a veterinarian and was a founding partner in Davis-Rairdan Embryo Transplants, a Charolais director, an executive member and a family man. He swept into the lives of many with a broad smile, the latest of agricultural technologies and a relentless enviable energy. Scott was dedicated to the causes he believed in and was known for his vision and impassioned ideas. To Scott, nothing was impossible and he conquered the most defiable of projects and challenges. His gregarious personality and immeasurable enthusiasm was contagious to those around him - as was his crazy sense of humour and positive attitude. Scott lived life to the fullest at every waking moment and never shied from experiencing new adventures. Scott was tragically killed in June of 1995, at the age of 40.”
