Hello Juniors! I hope you are getting excited for Junior Convention that is coming up fast. It is January 8, 9 and 10, in Stevens Point. This year the convention will be hosted by the Wood County Junior Association. We have several contests for you to compete in as usual and the JAC’s have been busy working to make the convention a success. Dairy Jeopardy
We will be starting Jeopardy earlier this year in order to finish in time for the farm tours. We are excited for another full, competitive contest. Check the convention schedule for complete details.
Royalty Contest
There is still time to apply for the Royalty contest. One addition the JAC’s made to the contest this year is that every princess candidate must compete in the Senior Speaking contest at convention. Applications for Royalty are due December 1st. If you have any questions contact our current royalty and they will be happy to tell you about their year.
JAC
If you are interested in running for a JA for your district contact your current JA’s in your district or Ashley Yager in the Holstein Office if you would like to put your bio up for the member to read ahead of convention. Being a JAC is a great opportunity to learn more about our association and gain valuable experiences.
WHY Award
There is still time to nominate your county leaders that have been beneficial and helped your club. Applications are due December 1st to the WHA office. This is a way to honor a friend of your county, a junior advisor, or someone who has been of great help to your county with in the past year or years. Our junior association is made of great juniors who are backed by great advisors.
2012 Convention Hosts
We are still looking for a 2012 convention host. This is a great opportunity for a county, two counties, or a district to come together and take a more active role in our Junior Holstein Association.
Looking forward to seeing you all at convention. Have a great end of the year.
