Youth in Dairy: Expo Winners in Judging and Showmanship, and New National Dairy Shrine Student Board Member Elected

Winners and an engaged college dairy enthusiast are featured in part two of the World Dairy Expo Special Edition of Dairy Delivery by the Dairy Star. We begin with Keenan Thygesen, individual and team member winning at this year's Expo Intercollegiate Dairy Cattle Judging Contest with the University of Minnesota. This marks the third consecutive win for the university. Thygesen shares why the Guernsey class was his favorite and his approach to evaluating, placing and talking cows. Then, we hear from another Wisconsin Holstein Associate Princess engaged in many opportunities at this year's event, Lauren Breunig. From writing press releases as a media intern for Expo, to being chosen to serve as a student on the National Dairy Shrine board of directors, Breunig is committed to embracing leadership and service to the dairy industry. In the last conversation, we hear from the winner of the Intermediate Division in showmanship, William Zimmerman. His journey from placing near the bottom of the class just a few years ago, to now rising to the top among his siblings made this year's Expo a memorable one. The third and final part of this special series from World Dairy Expo will be released on Monday! Send story ideas and your comments to [email protected].
