The Hill Country CattleWomen, HCCW, is a volunteer organization whose members promote the beef industry and provide beef education to youth.

Additionally, HCCW provides $40,000 in scholarships annually, donates gift cards to food banks and hosts the biannual Women's Ranch Seminar.

HCCW held its inaugural meeting for the year, along with its annual "Boot Camp," at Hilda Methodist Church on Sept. 15.
