Iowa-Grant School District

Julia Searls had a very successful Wisconsin State Fair placing 2nd with her Fall Yearling, Bailee (out of 17), 8th with her Red and White Winter Calf, Holiday (out of 36), and 7th in her age group for showmanship (out of about 60). While at state fair, Julia was awarded the James Crowley Dairy Leadership Award. Julia applied months ago after being nominated from Iowa County. She was then selected for an in-person interview while she was at the state fair. Fifteen youth from across the state receive the distinction, and 4 receive scholarships. Julia was awarded the top scholarship, the Al Shultz scholarship of $5000 in addition to her Crowley Honor. CONGRATULATIONS, JULIA!!!!

Congratulations to Alexis TB. on her accomplishments at the 2022 Wisconsin State Fair!! “On Thursday, I started out the week with showmanship by winning my age division and also being named 5th Overall Supreme Dairy Exhibitor out of over 300 exhibitors. My cow, Skyla, was showed on Friday morning and in addition to winning her class she was named Honorable Mention Grand Champion Brown Swiss and Grand Champion Bred and Owned Brown Swiss Cow. She then went on to be named 5th Overall Supreme Bred and Owned Cow. My fall heifer calf, Flora, was 10th in her class and 2nd bred and owned, and my spring yearling, Sol, was 3rd in her class and 2nd bred and owned as well. It was such an amazing week!” - Alexis TB.
