MADISON — There will now be shows for all seven major dairy breeds at the Wisconsin Dairy Showcase, scheduled for April 25-29 at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison. This announcement comes after much discussion and planning and the host committee is excited to offer this opportunity for all dairy exhibitors in the Midwest to come exhibit their best and be a part of a great week of events. The expansion of the Wisconsin Dairy Showcase sets the stage for future growth and will allow more opportunities for both exhibitors and sponsors to reach a larger audience.
A detailed show schedule, show rules, entry information, and exhibitor information will be posted to the Wisconsin Holstein website at https://www.wisholsteins.com/dairy-show-series.
The week’s events will also include the Wisconsin FFA CDE Dairy Judging Contest and Holstein USA’s Judge’s Conference on Thursday, April 27.
The organizing committee is looking forward to welcoming over 700 head for this event, with exhibitors coming from all over the Midwest. Anyone interested in being a show sponsor can contact Laura Wackershauser or EmmaRae Brown at the Wisconsin Holstein Association, 1-800-223-4269 or wisholsteins@gmail.com.
