The Dunn County 4-H Dairy Judging Junior team and two Seniors qualified to go to the State Dairy Judging Contest that took place in Madison, Aug. 17. In his last year participating as a Junior, Tyler Quilling of Menomonie, won first place in the Junior division out of 42 participants with an overall score of 557 points out of 580. According to Nancy Quilling, this marks the first time in program history that a Dunn County participant has earned first place for either the Junior or Senior division. In addition to winning first place as an individual, Tyler was the top Junior for the Brown Swiss and Holstein breeds while also placing third for Type Analysis Questions (TAQs).
