As for a final message

PRESIDENT'S REPORT: Keith Mixon

As for a final message Mixon would like to convey as his year as TCGA president nears an end, he wants to encourage young people who might be considering a career in cotton or ginning.

He was excited about having two young college interns working at TCGA gins this past year. It was a good experience for all parties, and Mixon believes there are opportunities for other young people looking for jobs.

"It gives me a lot of hope about the future when I see young folks excited about working for one of our gins," he says. "We have about seven or eight gin managers in the state who are about to retire, and we need young people to move into our industry."
