Green County 4-H State 4-H Dairy Judging Junior Team: Nicholas Roe, Marissa Vosberg, Emma Hendrickson, Natalie Roe and Coach Aaron Breunig.
The 2016 Wisconsin State 4-H Dairy Judging Contest was held at the Jackson County Fairgrounds in Black River Falls in conjunction with the State Guernsey and Ayrshire show on Monday, July 18, 2016. Green County's 4-H Junior Dairy Judging team qualified to attend this contest by earning second place at the 4-H Area Animal Science Day contest on July 1st. For these contests, the youth use their knowledge of dairy to place four animals in each class based on breeding characteristics and to participate in group reasoning justifications. The purpose of this program is to further youth's knowledge of animals, while providing them an opportunity to expand their communication and decision making skills.
Green County 4-H's qualifying Junior Team took seventh place at the State 4-H Dairy Judging Contest. The team was made up of Marissa Vosberg, Natalie Roe, Emma Hendrickson and Nicholas Roe, and was coached by Aaron Breunig. Congratulations to all of our 4-H Dairy Judging youth and coaches on another successful year!
