World Holstein Youth Conference
As we look to the future, it is important to include today’s youth in our discussions and provide them with opportunities to gain the necessary experience and skills to be successful leaders of tomorrow.
With this objective in mind, participation in the first ever World Holstein Youth Conference is being offered to young adult Holstein enthusiasts around the world aged 19 to 30.
The World Holstein Youth Conference will provide a parallel program to the 2012 World Holstein Conference from November 4 – 7, 2012, introducing future dairy leaders to learning and networking opportunities within the global genetics community.
Sister Holstein Breed Associations have been asked to sponsor one (or more) young adult(s) to attend the 2012 World Holstein Youth Conference. Young Adult delegates will have the option of participating in activities planned as part of the conference pre and post programs at their own expense.
If you are aged 19 to 30, a Holstein enthusiast and interested in attending the 2012 World Holstein Youth Conference, please contact your national Holstein breed association regarding possible sponsorship and participation.
Canadian young adults should contact their provincial Holstein Branch regarding sponsorship opportunities.
If you are unable to secure sponsorship and are still interested in participating in the World Holstein Youth Conference at your own cost, please contact Stephanie Gregson.
