MONROE - Green County's 4-H Junior Dairy Judging team took seventh place at the 2016 Wisconsin State 4-H Dairy Judging Contest held at the Jackson County Fairgrounds in Black River Falls in conjunction with the State Guernsey and Ayrshire Show on July 18.
The junior dairy judging team qualified to attend the contest by earning second place at the 4-H area Animal Science Day contest on July 1. For these contests, participants use their knowledge of dairy to place four animals in each class based on breeding characteristics and 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's qualifying 4-H Junior Dairy Judging team was made up of Marissa Vosberg, Natalie Roe, Emma Hendrickson and Nicholas Roe and was coached by Aaron Breunig.
