“I think kids should attend the National 4-H Dairy Conference because it helps you open up. The conference is not only a huge learning opportunity, but it is also a great place to make new friends. It opens so many doors for you being able to talk to people in the industry from all over the country and even people from Canada is so incredible. The conference made me realize all the opportunities in the dairy industry away from the family operation. Seeing how other people farm and different ways they do things is very interesting. Seeing all the newest technology that is coming to the dairy industry and talking with people who are on the forefront of it all is just a huge opportunity.”
