4-H Dairy Poster Winners

Each year the Dairy Poster Contest educational activity involves a large number of youth in a meaningful learning experience as they learn about our dairy industry. The competition is open to 4-H members in North Carolina ages 9-18 regardless of their cattle experience and ownership.

Congratulations to the following winners in the State 4-H Dairy Poster Contest! In the 9-12 year old division, third place went to Stephen Pledger. In the 13-15 year old division, first place went to his brother Andrew Pledger and in the 16-19 year old division, second place went to David Allen Pledger. The boys are the sons of Walter and Melanie Pledger of Winston-Salem. They each received a cash prize from the Southeast United Dairy Industry Association (SUDIA). The posters were displayed at the NC State Fair Dairy Shows in the Jim Graham Building from October 24-26.
