On behalf of the National Program Committee of the North American Intercollegiate Dairy Challenge, it is our privilege to invite you to participate in the 17th Annual Dairy Challenge Contest and 6th Annual Dairy Challenge Academy. The event will be held in Visalia, California April 12-14, 2018 hosted by the Western Regional Dairy Challenge Committee.
The North American Intercollegiate Dairy Challenge offers a two-day competition that enables four-person teams to evaluate a well-managed dairy farm business and then recommend management enhancements to a panel of judges comprised of industry and academic professionals. The Academy runs in conjunction with the contest, giving its students an intensive program using the educational component of the Dairy Challenge without the competition.
We are building our list of volunteers to help with the event on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Being involved and working directly with the students gives you a first-hand view of the students in action, plus a large volunteer pool helps the event run smoothly.
If you have any questions about volunteering, contact volunteer coordinators Jen Gisler Jennifer_Gisler@cargill.com and Jessica Lawrence jlawrence@alltech.com
Please submit information for each volunteer from your company using this form. Forms are due Wednesday, March 28, 2018.
