Wisconsin Holstein Updates

From the desk of... Mara Budde

Hello Spring! We are looking forward to seeing many of you at the Wisconsin Dairy Showcase at the end of the month. Keep an eye on the Wisconsin Holstein Association website, www.wisholsteins.com, for additional show information as well as the exhibitor letter.

In this issue you will find information on 2021 District Shows on pages 20 to 26. Information will also be shared online.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to vote in our online advertising contest! We had a great turnout of votes. Congratulations to Hilrose Holsteins on being the Ad of the Year and to all the other winners of each category.

Something new we have been offering through WHA Services is online promotion for sales. We can share your sale catalog on our website and Facebook page or just do one or the other. Our goal is to provide another avenue of promotion for you to your audience, Registered Holstein breeders and enthusiasts. Thank you to the Waupaca-Waushara Show Opportunity sale for advertising with us. Contact me for pricing and additional information.

Looking ahead, our June/July Issue is the Wisconsin Holstein News will be a Midwest Holsteins issue. With the National Holstein Convention coming up in June, we will be sending extra copies to the event. Midwest issues provide greater advertising reach for a good price. And ad design is also included with the purchase of an ad.
