Winning the Supreme Championship at this year’s World Dairy Expo not only netted Huronia Centurion Veronica 20J top honors among dairy cattle breeders, but also a new Tundra pickup truck from Toyota. Accompanying the news that Arethusa Farm of Litchfield, Connecticut won the Supreme Championship with their champion Jersey was the surprise announcement that with the honor came the keys to a 2006 shiny, black, extended cab Toyota Tundra truck.

“We wanted to add to the pageantry of the World Dairy Expo awards ceremony by surprising the winner with a new pickup truck,” said Dan Williams, truck field manager for Toyota’s Chicago Region. “It was great fun to be able to add to the excitement of the event.” Toyota was one of two Five Star Sponsors for the 2006 World Dairy Expo. In addition to providing the four-wheel-drive Tundra Double Cab pickup, Toyota trucks and sport utility vehicles were on display to expo attendees. “Our sponsorship this year was ideal as we’re gearing up for the launch of the all-new 2007 Toyota Tundra this February,” Williams added. “World Dairy Expo is a great venue to reach over 65,000 dairy industry enthusiasts.”
