A tradition worth continuing Volunteers keep Vernon County dairy judging contest going

By Danielle Nauman danielle.n@dairystar.com

VIROQUA, Wis. – Despite the ever-changing world, including the myriad changes in the dairy industry, sometimes a tradition is too good to let go. One of those traditions is the annual collegiate dairy judging contest held each year on Sunday morning at the Vernon County Fair.

Thanks to a group of volunteers, the morning of Sunday, Sept. 19 was no

Ashley Hagenow studies a class of cows during the Vernon County Dairy Judging Contest Sept. 19 in Viroqua, Wisconsin. Hagenow, a student of the University of Minnesota, was the winner of the oral reasons porƟon of the contest.

different, as college students descended upon the Vernon County Fair to take part in the Vernon County Dairy Cattle Judging Contest in Viroqua.

The contest, which is now in its 27th year, was in danger of not returning following its cancellation last year due to the novel coronavirus pandemic.

Several obstacles, including issues with tabulating scores and results, loomed over the contest, nearly tolling its death knell.

“It is really important to us to have a contest in the Midwest, for our collegiate youth,” said Dr. Les Hansen, coach of the University of Minnesota judging team. “Some things are traditional and valuable, and they need to be maintained. Dairy cattle judging and a contest like this one are two of those things.”

Prior to the beginnings of the Vernon County Collegiate Dairy Judging Contest, which was previously known as the Accelerated Genetics Collegiate Dairy Judging Contest, there had been a contest held at the National Cattle Congress in Waterloo, Iowa, which was coming to an end.

“Larry Tande and Pam Hendel ofciated that last contest in Waterloo, and thought it was a shame that it was ending,” said Dr. Ole Meland, a former Accelerated Genetics employee. “Larry had recently judged the Vernon County Fair and was impressed by the quality

of cattle gathered for the show. He suggested it as a potential new contest location.”

Hendel, who was employed with Accelerated Genetics at the time, got the ball rolling and the company began hosting the event in Viroqua in 1994, with many employees taking roles in the development, planning and running of the contest.

“This contest has a history of being well-run,” said Janet Keller, another former employee of Accelerated Genetics. “It is a contest that has always

been run by people who were involved in dairy judging throughout their own youth and throughout their careers.”

While resurrecting the contest seemed an insurmountable task for one person, it became more palatable with a team approach. Enter three past Accelerated Genetics employees, who had all been involved with running the contest in the past: Meland, Keller and Roger Hanson. Working as a group, the three were willing to undertake running the Turn to VOLUNTEERS | Page 4

“I feel good my investment will last a long time. I particularly like the bedding doors on the back of the group hutches.”

ConƟnued from VOLUNTEERS | Page 3 contest for its 27th year.

“Keeping the contest going was important to me because of the history,” Hanson said. “I am a long-time resident of Vernon County, and my kids were involved in 4-H here. This has become part of the fabric of our fair, and for it not to continue would have been a shame.”

With the three at the helm, other volunteers were recruited and the work began in earnest earlier this year.

“We have a great group of core volunteers and supporters, including the Vernon County fair board members,” Keller said. “Without any of these people, having this great contest back at the fair would not have happened.”

Through the use of Zoom meetings, plans began to be made for bringing the contest back to life. Working through the details to nd a new method for tabulation of scores was the top priority for the committee.

“There is no way you can score a contest like this by hand,” Meland said.

“Once we were able to work out a way to handle the scoring, then we felt we could do the rest.”

Out of the 10 classes presented, animals for 7.5 of the classes were already being exhibited at the fair. The remaining animals were brought in by area breeders, who not surprisingly, are also supporters of and involved with youth dairy cattle judging. The animals were led by youth from the Vernon and Monroe County dairy youth groups.

“The quality of the cattle that the breeders and exhibitors are able to provide for us is world-class,” Meland said. “That is one of the draws to this contest: these teams see breeds that they might not get a lot of exposure to in their areas.”

Meland recalled one year when two of the Milking Shorthorn heifers presented in a class went on to place rst and second in their class at World Dairy Expo, and the impression that pair made on contest participants and coaches alike.

“Being located right here in Wisconsin, we are also able to gather a great variety of ofcials, with a great deal of both contest and real-life experience in dairy cattle evaluation,” Meland said.

Three colleges have been competing in Viroqua each year since the contest rst started: the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the University of Minnesota and Iowa State University.

This year, 14 teams from ve states competed, from across the Midwest and as far away as Virginia Tech and California Polytechnical State University, representing both two and four year schools.

“The awesome thing about this contest is the tradition in Vernon County, with all the registered breeds. It is a beautiful arena and a fantastic facility

MaƩhew Gunst (leŌ) evaluates a class of Brown Swiss cows during the Vernon County Dairy CaƩle Judging Contest Sept. 19 in Viroqua, Wisconsin.

Gunst was the overall top individual in the contest and placed second in the oral reasons contest. He was also a member of the winning University of Minnesota-Maroon team. at a church across the street for reasons and the banquet. And then there are the wonderful people who organize the event,” said Hansen, of the importance the contest plays in his school’s judging program. “Another great thing is this contest allows schools to bring more than one team.”

This year’s contest was topped by the University of Minnesota-Maroon, consisting of Matthew Gunst, of Harford, Wisconsin, the overall high individual, along with teammates Kendra Waldenberger, of Spring Grove, Minnesota; Jay Dicke, of Goodhue, Minnesota; and Zach Schilter, of Chehalis, Washington.

Winning the oral reasons portion of the contest was the University of Minnesota-Gold, led by Ashley Hagenow, of Poynette, Wisconsin, the high individual in reasons; along with her teammates Matthias Annexstad, of St. Peter, Minnesota; Kjersten Veiseth, of Zumbrota, Minnesota; and Leif Annexstad, of St. Peter, Minnesota.

The coaches for both teams were Alicia Thurk Hiebert, Eric Houdek, Gabriella Sorg Houdek and Hansen.

“The real reason to make this contest happen is the importance of dairy judging and the role it plays in building our young people,” Keller said. “Besides the dairy cattle evaluation factor, they develop so many life-long learning skills: self-condence, critical thinking skills and public speaking skills. I know personally, if not for my involvement in collegiate dairy judging, I would probably not have spent my entire career working within the dairy industry.”

Get to know Abby Hovland of Colby, Wisconsin

Abby Hovland Parents: Adam and Katie Hovland Hovland Holsteins Colby, Wisconsin Marathon County 50 cows Senior at Abbotsford High School 17 years old

my blood sugar levels are low, I get very lethargic and don’t generally get what I want done until I get my blood sugar levels up. I was diagnosed at 3 years old.

I do often nd myself working on my college English work late at night. Otherwise, I tend to use my study hall during school to work on my assignments. I am involved in FFA and have been exhibiting dairy cattle since 2017. I love showing dairy cattle in the summer at local county fairs, but I am also getting to higher levels. I am exhibiting at World Dairy Expo this year, showing a Holstein summer yearling. I am currently serving as president of my FFA chapter. I am in honors band where I play clarinet; and I am involved in choir, as a soprano one. I also hunt during open season every year.

Questions for FFA Advisor, John Slipek: Tell us your favorite experience of working with your student. When Abby was a seventh grader and she was asked if she was interested in possibly showing dairy cattle at the fairs, she was hesitant to take that rst step but she did. Since then, she has made every possible effort to show her cattle wherever and whenever she can. She has shown at local, county and national shows over the past ve years. She has learned a lot about selection of show animals, their pedigrees, tting, clipping and showing. She is not afraid to pick up a pair of clippers and clip udders on her show cows. With another couple of years to show as a junior exhibitor, her knowledge and interest in working with good quality show cattle is going to improve.

How has working on the farm shaped your character? Working on the family farm has shaped my character as I have learned responsibility from a young age. I have learned to have respect, as you have to listen to directions. I feel as I have always been very mature for my age, especially compared to all of my classmates.

What do you love most about farm life? The No. 1 thing I love about farming is being able to always deal with cattle. I have always loved cows, and I feel like I can easily connect with them.

What qualities does your student have that benet the farm? From what I have observed about Abby’s work ethic on her parents’ farm, she seems to be very responsible in caring for the dairy animals. This includes feeding the calves, taking care of youngstock, milking the dairy herd and keeping track of records, such as registration papers and production records.

She used to be involved in after-school sports, but is no longer involved in order to have plenty of time to help around the farm. I feel her growing interest in working with the dairy animals on the farm is going to have a positive impact on her future career which she hopes will be in the area of veterinary science.

PHOTO SUBMITTED

Abby Hovland is a senior at Abbotsford High School.

She and her parents, Adam and KaƟe Hovland, milk 50 cows in Marathon County near Colby, Wisconsin.

How do you balance school, extracurricular activities and farm chores? I always make a to-do list for the day and week, to make sure I keep up on all of my school work, so I don’t fall behind. I am always working on something, whether it would be school, work or working on the farm. There are times my type 1 diabetes does affect how I can go about my day. If

Questions for the Hovland: What are your responsibilities on the farm? On the farm, it is my responsibility to care for our show heifers and milk cows. I start with my farm chores at about 6 p.m., as I work at our local vet clinic and get done at 5 p.m. I usually start milking around 7 p.m.

What is one thing you have learned from working alongside your parents? Things I have learned from my parents working on the farm are responsibility, accountability and respect – anything like that. I feel the farm has denitely made me who I am today.

What are your future plans? My future plans include attending college at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls for pre-veterinary science and after achieving that goal, I plan on attending the University of Wisconsin-Madison or the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities for my veterinary degree.

FEED BUNKS

When did you begin helping on the farm and why? I grew up helping on the family farm, so I’ve always helped from a young age. My dad is the reason I have gotten involved, and I’ve always loved helping.

The TORENNA Advantage

- Cow Comfort Comes in All Sizes

Springing Heifer Barn - 40” Stalls

BeneÞts:

Come See TORENNA and Fuller’s Milking Center at the World Dairy Expo Exhibition Hall booths 2206 & 2307

• Maximum Comfort & Safety - reduce injuries • Reduce Costs - cleaner stalls, more efficient use of barn space and a healthier herd • Encourage Rest & Rumination - can result in greater milk production • Patented Floating Neckrail - encourages proper positioning in the stall • Flexible, Adaptable & Accommodating - perfect for the whole herd

Fresh Cow Barn - 45” Stalls

“We remodeled our springing heifer barn and replaced the 48” steel stalls and switched to TORENNA 40” stalls, we were able to increase from 72 to 100 stalls. With the old steel stalls, a lot of heifers were laying in the alleyways but with the TORENNA stalls, that problem is solved. We like the TORENNA stall flexibility which allows the stalls to be narrower and larger cows can easily move the stalls to the width they need.”

Matt Bailie, Montfort ,WI First installed in 2018, currently 400 stalls
