Cooperative Fall Delegate Meetings Slated For September

The Accelerated Genetics’ cooperative delegate meetings have been scheduled throughout the membership area and will take place September 4th-13th. Locally elected representatives will receive the latest financial status and also updates on new products and programs. Four current Board of Director positions will be up for election at the scheduled meetings this year, which provides opportunity for refreshed leadership. Another great value at these meetings, will be the input gathered from fellow producers and customers, which Accelerated Genetics uses to develop future products and services for the evolution and growth of the cooperative.

Intercollegiate Dairy Cattle Judging Contest Coming Soon

The 13th edition of the Accelerated Genetics Intercollegiate Dairy Cattle Judging Contest will be hosted Sunday, September 16, 2007 in conjunction with the Vernon County Fair in Viroqua, WI. 

The gracious Vernon County dairy cattle producers and exhibitors have partnered once again with Accelerated Genetics to provide one of the best dairy judging events in the nation. This contest, providing an educational experience on real-world judging competition, attracts post secondary students from two and four year dairy colleges and technical programs across the nation. The quality and diversity of breeds offered at the contest are appreciated as many teams use this opportunity to increase their dairy skills and knowledge of a variety of dairy breeds.  In addition to the educational emphasis of this event, it also provides an excellent chance for recruiting summer interns and potential future Accelerated Genetics employees. Accelerated Genetics looks forward to hosting these bright young dairy leaders!
