Friday, February 26th, 20102010 Ohio 4-H Dairy Calendar Updates
Thursday, February 25th, 20102010 Updated Dairy 4-H Calendar Dates
Rules and registration forms for the Ohio 4-H Dairy Judging Contest are now posted on the dairy page. Please note there are changes in the contest and the location of the event. There are many details that will require some extra attention from coaches and volunteers. Most of these changes deal with the fact that Spring Dairy Expo lost some of their state funding for 2010. Please be assured that we are all working together to insure a successful event.
Also on March 20th, I will sponsor a dairy judging clinic here on campus. That information is also available on the “Calendar of Events” page. This clinic will help to prepare participants for the contest. There is a new PDCA Dairy Unified Scorecard to educate and inform youth and adults about. Some portions of this day are dedicated to coaches only.
One more update… The 2010 4-H Dairy Calendar has had some changes. It has been updated on the web page and I have attached it to this message.
First off, we will be having TWO dairy skillathons at the Ohio State Fair. That date, August 4th, has been added to the second rotation of the fair when Brown Swiss, Jersey, and Guernsey youth are at the fair.
Second update is the date change in Ohio’s Dairy Quiz Bowl…it will now be held on July 2nd (instead of July 12th) due to some renovations of the Animal Science Arena
Dairy COWreers program on April 10th has changed into a recruitment event as well as a 4-H program. It is shaping up to be something quite special with a widespread industry focus. It is FREE! ADA and ODPA are the generous sponsors. More details on this next week.

Jenna McNeil & NAAF Fundraiser
Thursday, January 28th, 2010
Jenna McNeil, a Beech Creek 4-H Member, has been diagnosed with Alopecia Areata. You can help by selling wrist bands (bracelets) in her honor. If you are interested in helping to sell bracelets, please call 330-823-6830. We would also be available to visit your club meeting to present a short video about Alopecia Areata. It could be a great health report!
