President, Grant Koski called the spring Clark County Livestock Committee meeting to order on April 6, 2016 at 7:35 p.m.
Secretary's report from the January meeting was reviewed. Harlan Hinkelmann moved to approve the minutes as presented and Eric Eibergen seconded the motion. Motion passed.
Treasurer's report was presented by Cindy Kolzow, treasurer. Checkbook balance as of 4/6/16 is $15,985.97. Trina Schmelzer moved to approve the report and John Gutowski seconded the motion. Motion passed.
Committee Reports Beef - No report Sheep - No report Swine - Grant shared that swine weigh-in is in one week at the county garage in Loyal. Swine committee requested permission from the livestock committee to bring in their own respective livestock animals early on Wednesday morning of fair week to the fairgrounds so they may get things ready for the weigh-in. They received complaints last year from several individuals. The livestock committee did not see any issue with this practice. Poultry - Chris Hollar shared the poultry committee is in need of a new chair person immediately. Jessica Thomas has stepped down from her position. Thank you to Jessica for her work on the poultry committee. Rabbits - Kimberly Mertens reported the showmanship contest for market sale exhibitors will be on Wednesday evening of fair week.
Old Business Sale time - The market sale will remain at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday night for this year. Time for the sale will be re-evaluated for next year in the fall.
New Business Livestock Committee Bylaws - Cindy Kolzow shared a draft copy of the livestock committee bylaws in the new format required by the State of Wisconsin. This was a read thru of the bylaws with the final approval being done at the September meeting. Discussion held. Three decisions were made in respect to the bylaws. 1. Terry Byrne moved an individual must be on a species committee (i.e. swine, beef, sheep, poultry, or rabbits) for 1 year before having voting rights on
the general livestock committee. Motion seconded by Harlan Hinkelmann. Discussion held. Motion passed: 15 - yes; 4 - no. 2. Rich Meyer moved and Harlan Hinkelmann seconded to continue with 3 members on the executive committee. Each member will rotate off in alternate
years and each member must be from a different species committee. Discussion held. Motion passed. 3. Harlan Hinkelmann moved an individual needs to be on a species committee for one year before having a vote on that species committee. Terry Byrne
seconded motion. Discussion held. Motion failed.
Under membership section of bylaws the livestock committee proposed to change guidelines from "any Clark County resident expressing interest in meat animal sale and show" to any "Clark County resident or individual enrolled in the Clark County livestock program".
In addition it was proposed to add a section to the bylaws defining the different committee structures (i.e. livestock general committee vs. individual species committee).
Lastly, it was suggested to handout a copy of the draft bylaws at the livestock banquet in August.
Scholarship Update - Cindy Kolzow shared the committee has received 6 applicants for this year. Unfortunately 2 will be disqualified as they are not complete with references.
Educational Sessions - There are two more sessions coming up they will qualify as educational credit. One being at Hotel Marshfield next week sponsored by General Farm Supply and another one in May at Medford for beef put on by Zimmerman’s and Danny Meyer.
Market Animal Summary Records - These records are available on the county extension website. There is a specific one for rabbits and one for poultry and one that is for beef, sheep, or swine. These are due at the livestock banquet.

Chris Hollar volunteered to check with some Neillsville groups. This year the poultry and rabbit youth are expected to help set up table and chairs prior to the banquet this year. Chris Hollar requested that species committees provide details for awards to Lori Hendrickson the week after the fair, so they can be ordered and done in time for the banquet.
Supreme Showmanship Contest - Grant Koski and Wendell Attoe will be chairing this contest and finalizing details.
Harlan Hinkelmann moved to adjourn the meeting and Eric Eibergen seconded the motion. Motion passed. Meeting adjourned at 8:56 p.m.

Please WELCOME our Summer 4-H & Ag Intern
to Clark County
Hi! My name is Megan Schulte. I hail from Hammond, WI, which is located in the heart of St. Croix County. Born and raised on my family’s 150-cow dairy farm, agriculture has always been a large part of my life. Growing up I was very active in 4-H, showing dairy and beef at the county and state levels as well as participating on my county’s dairy judging team. I am currently a sophomore at the University of Minnesota – Twin Cities studying Agricultural Communications & Marketing. On campus I am involved in Gopher Dairy Club, Agricultural Education Club, and Beta of Clovia Sorority, as well as a member of the Dairy Judging Team. I’m looking forward to an exciting summer serving as the Clark County 4-H & Ag Extension Intern.

HCE DAIRY BAR VOLUNTEERS (YOUTH & ADULTS) ARE NEEDED AT CLARK COUNTY FAIR
August 11 through August 14 HCE stands for Home and Community Education, which many of you might know better as Extension Homemakers. Maybe you have a mom, grandmother, or aunt who belong or previously belonged to this organization. Our main goal of earning money at the Dairy Bar is to award THREE $500.00 scholarships to Clark County residents who are attending a college or technical school. After one year of education beyond high school, all Clark County residents are invited to apply. The applications can be obtained at the UW-Extension Office. Pick one up today if you qualify!
The Dairy Bar is open during the Clark County Fair, Thursday August 11th through Sunday August 14th. It takes many people to help with all the customers throughout the four days. If you have a friend that you'd like to bring along to work on your shift, even if not a 4-H member, they are more than welcome to sign up also.
Our HCE Dairy Bar is connected with the 4-H Food Stand. Last year we had many fantastic young volunteers come in and help. Either they were making hand dipped cones or scooping the ice cream into ice cream buckets for malts and shakes which are so popular. That was a life saver when we had orders of 5-6 malts at a time. We couldn't do it without your help!
Why would you like to come help us??? Besides all of us HCE members loving to work with the youth and meeting our fantastic volunteers, we do let you have your choice of an ice cream treat before you leave - it could be one of our double ice cream cones, a float, malt, or shake! Also if you do decide to apply for our HCE Scholarship, we'll give you extra points when adding up the score of who will receive the scholarship for their fall tuition.
4-H parents or grandparents—we'd love to offer this invitation to you also! Everyone will get a free admission to get into the fair the day you volunteer if you don't already have a season pass. Our shifts are about 4 hours and you'd have the remainder of the day to enjoy the fair.
I always compare being a member of HCE to my growing up in 4-H. I'd love to share with you what HCE is all about and invite you to join one of our clubs. Why should the kids have all the fun??? We have a State Conference which is very enjoyable and very educational. This September our State HCE Conference will be in Eau Claire. It's 1-3 day event of tours, learning sessions, meeting new friends and great food. Remember 4-H Camp? Well - HCE has many opportunities to continue learning too at any age! We have held many sewing events throughout this past year.
If you are interested in working a shift at the Dairy Bar, please call 715-743-6629 or my cell 715-937-2324. I will try to work around the most convenient time you are able to help. I'd love to hear from you!!! It's not too early to start signing up! Thanks so much! Cindy Craig Clark County HCE Marketing and Membership Chairperson
Clark County Fair Is Just Around The Corner and We Need Your Help!
Clark County Fair is August 10 – 14 this year and things are coming together. However we are in need of volunteers to help at the fair. What does a volunteer do?
They could check in items on Wednesday and Thursday, they could help with judging by scribing (Wednesday – Saturday), they could also help place and arrange exhibits once they are judged
(Wednesday – Friday). There are many things a volunteer could do to help!
Volunteers receive a free day pass into the fair on the day(s) they would work and a free meal ticket. If you would have questions before or during the fair we are always there to help.
If you would be interested in volunteering at the fair this year please contact Chris Hollar at 715-743-5121 / [email protected] by June 15.

Hello Agent Hollar Here,
I am feeling very reflective at the moment. Picture me sitting back in a camp chair in front of an open fire pit pondering life. As bats swoop down to eat mosquitos and the stars are twinkling in the sky. In one month milestones will be reached by our graduating seniors. What will the future hold for them and did we equip them with the necessary tools to move into the next chapter of their lives.
Youth will leave school with a head full of knowledge and a yearning to attend summer 4-H camp (total subliminal messaging) to build skills like fire starting, trapping wild animals, killing fish with sharpened sticks, building shelter to stay warm at night, looking for grubs and bugs to eat. The earth giveth and the human taketh. These are the tools you can’t find on an app, sitting in front of screen, fingers glued to an electronic device. While their eyesight worsens from looking at small words and the eye doctor bills pile up with glasses, contacts, Lasik surgery, and eventual blindness. AHHH, stop the madness ...send your kids to camp out in the warm glow of that orb we call the sun!
