It’s almost time for the Tenth National Dairy Calf & Heifer Conference taking place in Visalia, Calif. from March 21-24 at the Visalia Convention Center. Apparently it’s not too late to register.

Those individuals who may wish to attend but have not yet registered, may do so at the Conference itself. PDHGA officials will be located at Booth #71. Incentives to attend include hands-on activities and learning opportunities such as 15 different break-out topics including Management Tips for Employees, Marketing Your Operation and Wet Calf Diagnostic Labs. A pre-conference forum entitled “A Proactive Dairy Industry; Perspectives to Include Animal Welfare, Bio-Security, Environmental Management, Animal I.D” will take place on March 21.

Additionally, all membership renewals and new membership applicants will be entered into a drawing for the use of a New Holland Skid Steer. Other opportunities to win will also be available to three runners-up, who will each receive a copy of the “Enchanted Pastures” painting by Bonnie Mohr, commissioned by PDHGA in conjunction with Elanco Animal Health and Vita Plus. More information about the Conference schedule, location and times is located on the association website.
