A Note from the Junior Activities Committee

Wow, this summer has gone by fast. I would first like to start off by congratulating all the Juniors who participated at this year’s Championship Show in Manitowoc. It is such an honor to be able to parade your farm’s best animals against the state’s elite animals. Also congratulations to the Juniors who topped the Judging and Classification Contest, and to all who were successful at Junior State Fair.

I would like to encourage every Junior to participate in the Embryo Share Program sponsored by Tom Kestell of Ever-Green-View Holsteins of Waldo, WI. This program is designed to help juniors start or continue to build their registered Holstein herd. Tom is offering genetics from some of the Holstein breed’s elite cow families. To see a list of donor dams available or to download an application, check out the WHA website here.

I look forward to seeing everyone at the State Picnic at the Brey’s family farm on September 11.
