It has been enjoyable to work on this Youth Issue.
It is always nice to see our young people recognized
for their hard work and dedication. I also enjoyed
visiting with adults about the benefits of youth being
involved on the state and local level. I hope you will
enjoy their reflections as well.
As we close 2010, I wish to thank everyone who
has supported the News throughout the year. I am
0,&+$(/0F&$))5(<
grateful to all the advertisers, those who contribute
columns and club news, and all those who have helped make 2010 a good
year for our magazine. We are one of the few states that still publishes
monthly and it is only through the support of the breeders, AI companies,
and commercial advertisers, that this is possible. Thank you for your belief
in our publication and our mission. I would also enjoy visiting with local
clubs interested in a special section in 2011.
As we look ahead to the New Year, it is my wish that words like hope,
peace, gratitude, and love are first and foremost in each of our hearts.
Amidst life’s challenges – and we all have them and face them – these
values help us all to focus on what really matters in life. May your holidays
be blessed moments with those you love.
“Gratitude … can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger
into a friend.” (Melody Beattie).

Report

So long 2010. Another year flies by with its ups and
downs. Although this year has been challenging in many
ways, the support, enthusiasm, and confidence in our
Association by our members takes us to the New Year
with optimism and hope. We work very hard to fulfill
our mission statement to serve the junior and senior
members for their social and economic benefit. We can
plan, budget and do back flips, but without the support
and participation of our membership we go nowhere.
Thanks to everyone who pitched in and made 2010 a
fulfilling one for New York Holstein Association.
It’s been a very busy year with one event leading into
the next. That’s how I like it. Looking back, there were
many highlights all year long. Convention was a great,
well-attended winter break. Carousel 2010 was thrilling
and people everywhere tell me they can’t wait for April.
The picnic at Lantland was an unforgettable Holstein day
full of great food, cattle, and friends. All summer long, the
shows were super and led right up to the national shows
where New York cattle made a terrific showing. It was
pretty thrilling to have three New York Junior Holstein
members – Trevor Holdridge with the Holstein, Cy Conard
with his Red and White, and Kennedy Crothers with her
Jersey – all named Grand Champion of their respective
junior shows at the All-American in Harrisburg. And the
momentum carried right through the Royal with Cooper
Galton’s spring calf topping them all at the Royal. Wow.
Our bus trip to Maine was more fun and more interesting
than you can imagine until you go on one. The Harvest
Sale set a new all-time high with Tiger Lily’s lovely red
calf at $36,500.
So here it is December again and we look forward to
2011 and its adventures.
You won’t want to miss convention just a few weeks
away. We’ll tend to the necessary business, but the time
spent with Holstein friends you might not often see is the
best part. Our ET Sale is shaping up great as you can see
by the ad elsewhere in this issue. We’ll offer a range of
consignments from high genomics, top show prospects,
red and polled, famous cow families, and lots more. With
just 25% down, it’s a terrific way to tap into superior
genetics with choices to pick from. The track record of
the ET sale speaks for itself in that we have consignments
this year that go back to purchases from previous ET
sales. If you need a catalog or bid carried, just call.
The Silent Auction during the senior convention
is the bread and butter fund raiser for the scholarship
committee. This year we are awarding $1000 scholarships
to six very deserving juniors. Your support of the Silent
1<1'HFHPEHU
Auction is very much appreciated whether it’s a purchase
or a donated item.
It wouldn’t be my December article if I didn’t promote
convention as a Christmas gift. A banquet ticket(s) or
overnight stay(s) are terrific gifts that you know will
be used and appreciated. And there’s always the junior
merchandise. A News subscription and prepaid advertising
also make great gifts. I say it every year: I think any club
that subsidizes their juniors’ trip to convention is making
a smart investment in their youth, club and future. We
work hard to keep the next generations in our industry.
Junior convention rocks from the minute they step in the
door. Speech, Dairy Bowl, Jeopardy, DJMs, Production
Awards, Scrapbooks, Posters, Folding Displays, and the
pool that just churns with all the swimmers. Just ask
last year’s biggest kid, Kevin Peck. They learn, they
participate, and they have a blast with their Holstein
friends. I think that’s a small piece but a huge way we
can keep them interested and in our circle in the years to
come.
This issue is our heartwarming issue because it’s
dedicated to our most valuable resource, our youth.
I just talked about convention, but our juniors are our
shining stars all year long. Their accomplishments and
enthusiasm are amazing. Wherever I go, whatever
hotel we hold an event in, I get compliments about our
wholesome, polite, fun-to-be-around kids. It doesn’t get
much better than that. Parents, advisors, leaders, and
all involved in guiding our kids to lead happy, healthy,
productive lives now and in the future deserve a huge pat
on the back and thanks.
We’ll close the door on convention and open the door
to Carousel. Many plans are already underway and I’ll
be on the road making sale selections starting in late
January. We plan to trim numbers somewhat this year
and keep the standards top notch. Our Carousel Sale
has earned high respect and recognition for the high
quality of consignments and success of purchases. See
me at convention or give me a call if you’re interested in
consigning.
I’ve had lots of calls about Carousel dates and judges.
April 8-11. Same schedule as last year except no PDCA
judging conference. Judges are Brian Carscadden doing
Open Holsteins and Milking Shorthorns, Chris Lammers
doing our New York Junior Holstein Show, Red and
Whites, and Ayrshires, and Robert Jerrell doing Jerseys,
Swiss and Guernseys. Packets should be in the mail
about Valentine’s Day and online as well. Call with any
questions.
As many of you know, Jen, our office manager is on
maternity leave. As I write this, we’re waiting for the
arrival of the new little Miss Ginzery. We’ll keep you
posted.
New York Holstein closes the year healthy and
strong. The hard work, leadership and support of all the
membership along with our dedicated staff made that
happen. Jen and Stacie in the office, Mike at the News,
our board, committee chairs, and all volunteers too many
to name in this one thousand word article keep our
Association strong and viable. My deepest thanks and
appreciation to all of you.
Have a wonderful holiday season. Take care and keep
in touch.
A Prelude to a bright and promising future
Gar-Ri Alex Prelude
Our farm manager, Jordan Cook, has a good eye for good cattle, so when he spotted Prelude at the
Chautauqua-Cattaraugus Holstein Club Sale this past spring, we knew she probably had some good
potential.
And Prelude didn’t prove us wrong. She stood top of her large and competitive intermediate heifer
calf class at the Chautauqua County Holstein Show and she placed second at the Chautauqua County
Open Dairy Show. She is now maturing and will be bred soon and she should be in prime show
condition come spring again.
This Alexander daughter is out of a VG Mr. Derry Promotion dam and her second dam is a VG
Astronomical . Third dam is Speedside Jed Pia-ET, EX-94. She was bred by Kibler Dairy Farms,
Warren, Ohio.
Jordan is now the sole owner of this special heifer and he no doubt will have great fun with her both
in the show ring and in the calving pen. Good work Jordan, and congratulations on your recent
election to the Board of Directors of the Chautauqua County Holstein Club!

Micah 6:8: Seek justice, love kindness and walk humbly with God.
Hello all, and welcome to
winter! Even though it is getting
cold outside, I love this time of
year and I am sure many of you
do as well because the Christmas
season is upon us and a New Year
is right around the corner. With
this, convention is truly almost
here and I want to expand upon
my November article with a few
.$7,('211$1
more details for you.
Hopefully all of you (and your parents) have your
registration forms in as they were due on December 4th,
however if you do not please send them in as soon as
possible to Mollie Pulver (91 Church Street Little Falls,
NY 13365). Please make your reservations with the
Utica Radisson Hotel by January 3rd – NOTE, this is a
change from previous years! If you have any logistical
questions regarding convention, feel free to contact
anyone on the executive committee. I would also like
to expand on the contests occurring at convention.
First off, congratulations to all of you that completed
a Distinguished Junior Member book! I know it was a
long, tedious process but you all should be proud that
you completed it. For those of you with DJM interviews
coming up, feel free to contact Abbey Andrew, Kenny
Quick, Nathan Holdridge, Katie Hanehan, or me if you
have any questions. We would be more than willing
to help prepare you and hopefully calm your nerves if
you are a little unsure of what to expect – we have been
put in this interview situation before and definitely have
some helpful hints to share!
As a committee, we are also excited for the other
contests that will be occurring at convention. We
encourage you to write your speeches early so that you
will have plenty of time to edit them and practice before
hand, and if you are doing an extemporaneous speech
practice, pick a topic out of a hat and take a shot at it!
Dairy Jeopardy and Dairy Bowl are destined to be great
contests, and Steven and Amy Quanz are hard at work
preparing for two fun competitions. Below are some
tips that Amy has sent me, and if you have any further
questions feel free to contact her.
I believe this is all of the convention details I have
for now, but if you have any questions PLEASE contact
us! We are more than willing to help answer questions,
and feel as though answering questions before hand will
alleviate a lot of confusion and stress during convention.
Of course this is very important so that all of us can
have a great time together in Utica! The entire executive
committee has met regarding convention, so we are all
here as a resource. With this, I hope you all have a great
month and that you are enjoying the holiday season.
The executive committee and I wish you a very Merry
Christmas, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year!

O-H-M Club News
From Ginny Wolfe, Reporter
The O-H-M Holstein Club will
be wrapping up their activities for
the year at the annual dinner meeting to be held on Saturday evening,
December 4th at the Vet’s Club in
Richfield Springs. President Deb
Quackenbush reported that the
club’s long-time members will be
the guests of the club that evening
and honored with their state certificates and gifts. Chairmen of the
various activities will also be giving
their reports to the membership. The evening will be highlighted by
a special presentation to honor one
of the club’s outstanding members.
The fall season is always a
busy time for our members not
only gathering the last of the harvest on their farms but also many
members also participate in the fall
show season. Several junior and
srenior members traveled to Harrisburg and participated in the Eastern National Holstein Show and a
few others traveled on to Madison
to show at the World Dairy Expo. Congratulations to all those that
participated as the competition is
really stiff. Brad Ainslie, chairmen of the
annual club sale, reported that 105
live lots of animals sold on Saturday, October 16th. The over-all
average was $1,525 with 32 milking animals; 43 bred heifers; 29
open yearlings and young calves
and one young service sire crossing through the sale ring. There
was also one lot of embryos sold. The sale was hosted by the Pullis
family at their Roedale Farm. The
weather didn’t cooperate for the final cattle preparations on Friday as
a Nor’easter storm passed through
the area with high winds and over
an inch of heavy rain. Needless to
say, the volunteers and crew were
all soaked by day’s end. Despite
the nasty weather, which did let
up for the Friday evening Open
House events, there was a good
crowd on hand. Sue Mower solicited donations and planned this
year’s open house to include hot
pork sandwiches and salads, etc. Doug Wolfe chaired the Annual Semen Sale also held during the Open
House on Friday evening. Bidding
for the most part was brisk with
the Braedale Goldwyn semen topping that sale at $450/unit. Club
member, Wayne Conard served as
auctioneer with assistance from
Tom & Brenda Hosking’s young
son. Announcements were read
by Jason Pullis. A complete sale
report will be given at the annual
meeting.
During the month of November
club members in the Montgomery County area had their regular
classification program. Classifiers
working the area have found many
nice young 2 year olds to score
Very Good including 2 red & white
Holsteins at Stoncree Farm for
the Sammons family; 2 homebred
young cows carrying the Hu-Hill
prefix for Rob & Shirley Hudyncia; Stowell-L Buckeye Daisy scored in
at VG-87 for owner/breeders Paul
Larkin and Gary Stowell; Jim Hudson had a Duece daughter [son of
September Storm] score VG-85;
Jr. member Cy Conard had three
of his project animals scored in at
VG while Ridgedale Eleanor-Red
scored in at VG-87 for the Ridgedale herd; and the highest scoring
2 yr. old reported by the middle of
November was a Pronto daughter, Gaige Pronto Tiny-ET, owned
jointly by Ridgedale & Gerald Cacciola scored VG-88 @ 2-06. The
classifiers also raised nine cows to
the Excellent scores with one scoring Ex-91 and all the others scoring
in at 90 points. Ridgedale had 4
new Excellent cows, including one
owned by Cy. John & Bruce Osborne had a home-bred 4 year old
Rubens daughter score 90 points
and Jodi Edsall also had a homebred Champion daughter score in
at 91 points. Jr. member, Clyde
Sammons had a really good day as
two of his project cows were raised
to Excellent including Stoncree
Astronimcl Ava, a 4 year old, and
Stoncree Champ Charity, a 3 year
old. Congratulations to all. As the year 2010 draws to a
close we wish you all a wonderful holiday season with family and
friends. And we will be looking
forward to seeing you all at the
NYS All-Breeds convention in Utica
in January. Remember many O-HM members are just a short drive
away from convention. BARN CLEANER

(our highest
ever!)
We never dreamed, when Trevor purchased Lea in the
spring of 2007, that she would bring so much joy to our
lives. She has truly given us an experience that we could
only have dreamed of and formed wonderful memories
that will last a lifetime.
We had never had the opportunity to show at
Harrisburg or Madison before, so this was a very exciting
and memorable experience. What a joy it was working
side by side with Lenny & Owen Pieper at Harrisburg. We
look forward to more fun times with the Pieper family.
Madison was a whole new experience and we thank
Tim Coon & his crew for their kindness and expertise. A
special thanks to our family that made the trip to support
us. We all really enjoyed looking at the great cows and
exhibits. Thanks also to Steve Vail for all his support
throughout the year.
The kids have had a great 2010 with school and dairy
activities. They bring us so much joy as we watch them
excel in their many interests.

14, 2010, at Otsego Manor in Cooperstown.
He was born November 14, 1935, in Brookfield, the

married Alzada Hunt on June 30, 1956.
Ronald was a lifetime member of the Dairy Farmers

sold to Eastern. His glory was working with his farm
animals and the land. He received many awards over his
50 years as a dairy farmer, raising registered Holsteins
and Brown Swiss and farming with his daughter and
later, his grandsons.
Ronald is survived by his loving wife, Alzada Bice;
his loving daughter Diane (Brian) Long; his loving
grandchildren, Michael Craig (Andrea) Long, and

in the NY Holstein News
1952 (Volume 7)
Knollwood Rag Apple Gay,
owned by R. Austin & Jay Backus,
Butterfly Farms, Mexico, became
the first cow to produce over 1300
fat on 3x milking. Her record of 7-03
3x 365 32,888 4.03% 1327 made
her the new National Champion,
displacing her sister, Knollwood Rag
Apple Nettie with her record of 1273
fat for breeder-owner John Mayne,
Fairport. Gay’s accomplishments
did not stop with her great record,
however. She was also declared
the first cow of any breed to make
over 100,000M in four consecutive
lactations and she continued to
reign as the New York State Milk
Champion for 2-year-olds with her
record of 21,365 3.5 751. In addition,
she became the fourth daughter of
Montvic Chieftain 7th to become
a National Fat Champion and she
was a half-sister to the breed’s
highest testing cow with 5.76%f.
When asked about this incredible
cow and her accomplishments,
Butterfly manager Bob Hogarth
stated that “there was no secret
and no tricks. Just a case of a great
cow, given good feed and care, and
making a sensational record.” A
few interesting notes about Gay, her
record, and her care include that
she peaked at 114.8 lbs. and milked
over 100 lbs. a day on 100 different
days during her lactation. Housed
in a comfortable, well-bedded box
stall, she was led out for a half hour
or so of fresh air and exercise and
a bite of green grass each evening
by herdsman Bill McReynolds. She
was bred only once, fresh about
eight months, and conceived at first
service. Gay came to Butterfly Farms
as “a rather rough, plain looking
youngster” through the Knollwood
Farms Semi-Dispersal for $480. “It
was a family joke at Butterfly that
Jay was the only one who had any
confidence in her in those early
days.” She sold for $2200 in the
Butterfly Sale in 1947 to J. Alan
Fusca, Reedhill Farm, Arcade, but
returned to Butterfly when the
Backus family purchased the entire
Reedhill herd.
1983 (Volume 38)
Millervale Ultimate Rosalynn
won “The Triple Crown” by being
named Grand Champion at all three
National Shows in 1983. Sired by
Quality Ultimate and shown under
the Dreamstreet banner, Rosalynn
was the winning 4-year-old and
Grand Champion at the Eastern
National, the Central National, and
the Western National Shows. In
Madison, WI, Rosalynn was also
named the Supreme Champion of
all breeds. Her closest competitor at
the Central National was herdmate
Campbell-Hollow Ultimate Kate, the
2nd place 4-year-old who went on to
be named Reserve Grand Champion.
Dreamstreet won the Premier
Exhibitor banner at the Eastern
and Western Nationals under the
direction of Buddy Fleming and
crew. Another Dreamstreet entry
also won her class at all three
National Shows, she being HowardHome Valiant Eva, the winning
senior 2-year-old sired by S-W-D
Valiant.
Janice A. Richardson joined
the News staff as assistant editor.
Richardson, the daughter of Phil
& Arlene Richardson of Ja-Rich
Holsteins, Akron, was a Cornell
University graduate and past New
York Distinguished Junior Member.
She was most recently assistant
sales manager for GJS Coyne, Inc.
in Geneseo. The Walker Family of Walker
Farms, Falconer, was featured on the
cover of the News and highlighted
in the issue featuring an extensive
Chautauqua
County
Special
Section. Frank & Mary Walker, New
York Master Breeders in 1983, in
partnership with sons Mike and
Bruce, were active members of
Chautauqua County Breeders, a
syndicate of breeders whose “stars”
included Cochran Ivanhoe Fury, an
Ideal Fury Reflector son of Cochran
Ivanhoe Shirley (EX-94-GMD), wellknown matriarch at Poverty Hollow
Farm, CT.
1992 (Volume 47)
The December issue of the News
marked the last to be published by
Holstein World, Inc. In its 46 years
to date, the magazine had changed
editors 11 times (Ted Prescott,
Robert Hastings, Alfred Drowne,
Jim Hill, Donna Cooper, Kathy
Jones, Janice Richardson, Michael
McCaffrey, Gayle Benedict, and Jan
Guell). Beginning in 1993, the News
would be owned and published by
the New York Holstein Association.
The Genetic Advantage Sale
averaged $4451 on 79 head at the
fairgrounds in Syracuse. High
seller of the day at $26,000 was
Ms Landvue Star Eric-389-ET (VG86, EX-MS), a To-Mar Blackstar-ET
daughter with a PTPI of +1197
and out of a VG Rotate dam.
Purchased by Dan Will, Berlin,
PA, she was consigned by Dennis
Yousey, Cazenovia. Rodney Paulo,
Hanford, CA, went to $12,400 to
own Derrwyn Leader Sassy-Red-ET,
an early daughter of Kinglea Leader
from a VG Enhancer dam with
1237f. She was the consignment of
Stonehurst Farm, Inc. and John &
Vicki King.
Eighty-one New York cows were
declared Gold Medal Dams in 1992
and 322 qualified as Dam of Merit.
The News compiled a list of seven
“Premier Gold Medal Dams” who
had at least five daughters qualified
for type and production. Included
in that elite group were: ClearEcho Elevation Beauty (VG-85),
Darling-Farm Bell Ginny (VG-86),
Ellbank Standout Chief Kery (2E92), Geordave Valiant Paula (VG88), Kemview Valeta-ET (VG-87),
Langdonhurst Valiant Nicki (EX-95),

No news to anyone … kids are BUSY today. Ask any
parent how many activities their children are involved
in and how many demands they have upon their time
and their energy, and it becomes clear that our young
people have an incredible number of activities in which
to participate. Be it sports, music, drama, clubs, church
youth group, or scouting, today’s youth often have to
master a balancing act between family life, school work,
and activities.
Involvement in New York Junior Holstein Association
is yet another activity in which we hope our young
people participate. They are the future of the New
York Holstein Association and many of today’s senior
leaders were active juniors as well. Ask many of the
leaders in today’s State Association about their time
in the Junior Holstein Association and see the smiles
and hear the happy memories. But life was also simpler
in days gone by, and today’s gamut of extracurricular
activities is much more vast. Kids today simply have
more opportunities.
So why belong to New York Junior Holstein
Association? Why being an involved Junior? What are
the benefits, the perks, the possibilities? Especially for
our younger members who may just be getting started
with the local Junior Holstein club, what do they stand
to gain by participating in Junior activities?
What follows are the thoughts and perspectives of
four adult leaders within Junior Holstein activities. Each
of them was generous in their praise of the New York
Junior Holstein Association and its benefits, yet each
shared a unique set of reflections and thoughts about
what kids gleen by being Junior members. Each of the
four adults has kids who have been or are currently
involved, but they also work with other kids who may
or may not be from registered Holstein farms, or might
not have any farm background at all. Regardless of their
1<1'HFHPEHU
experience and the amount of time they have been
involved, the bottom line with each of our four adult
leaders was basically the same – dive in, get involved,
and have fun!
$P\$QGUHZV%UDXQ±7UL&RXQW\
With 12 years of active involvement and four years of
“official” leadership with the Tri-County Junior Holstein
Club, Amy Braun has seen many great things happen
within her own three children and the others with whom
she has worked. Daughter Carolyn is now a junior at
Cornell University and sons Justin and Peter are in their
first year at SUNY Cobleskill. All were active junior
members in the Tri-County Club during their formative
years and Carolyn is now involved with the New York
Junior Holstein Executive Committee. Carolyn, Justin,
and Peter are all active with their college dairy clubs as
well.
“My kids have benefited 10-fold from Tri-County
and New York Junior Holstein Association,” Amy says
enthusiastically. “The big thing that I see is that kids
learn and their knowledge base increases. Beyond that,
their confidence level also increases.” Braun is quick
to point out the speech contest held each year at the
Junior Convention as one way that kids are challenged
to grow. “How many kids have the opportunity to stand
in front of 300 people and give a speech?” Certainly the
speech competition is an incredible learning experience
and being able to speak in front of others is a life skill
that everyone will use at some point in their life. “The
speech contest also helps kids gain composure. They
will have to be able to communicate for the rest of their
life.” The ability to work on and receive feedback on
their communication skills are added bonuses to this,
with the kids involved with the speech competition
having to be clear in their thoughts and they need to be
able to express their ideas verbally.
Another added bonus of Junior Holstein involvement
is the ability to work as part of a team. “Whether it is
dairy bowl, the Executive Committee, or working on the
local calf sale, the kids learn to work together and form
a team.” That commonality of purpose and working
toward a goal is certainly something that will be used
throughout adulthood.
Forming good, lifelong friendships is another aspect
of Junior Holstein involvement that Amy has seen in
her own life as well as in her children’s. “They have a
nucleus of friends. They are a wholesome bunch of kids
in the Junior Holstein Association.” Braun adds that
her kids have met others from all over the state, young
people that they would never have met and become
friends with were it not for their participation in New
York Junior Holstein Association.
Another added bonus for adults is the friendships
they form with other parents and adult leaders. Amy
shared that getting together with other adults at the
Junior Holstein Convention is a great time. Adults share
ideas and just have time to visit with one another as real
friends.

Having been involved herself from the age of eight,
Terri Holdridge knows first hand how rewarding being a
New York Junior Holstein member can be. She and her
husband Rick own and operate Humdinger Holsteins in
Bloomville with their three children – Nathan, Nikki,
and Trevor. Each of the three younger Holdridges has
been involved with the Delaware County Junior Club,
with Nathan having been a New York State DJM and
Nikki serving on the Executive Committee as well.
Terri has been a Junior Advisor for eight years and
has seen first-hand how her own kids and those she
works with benefit from Junior Holstein involvement.
The Delaware County Junior Holstein Club is one of the
state’s largest and strongest. But they are also diverse.
“You have a whole different group of kids who are
friends,” she says, noting that her children have friends
from all over New York State, well beyond their relatively
small school environment. “These kids share things in
common. Their day-to-day life is the same as these other
farm kids from around the state. And they are forming
life-long friendships.” She emphasizes how beneficial it
is for kids to be with others like themselves.
Holdridge is a great proponent of the DJM program
and the DJM books the youth have to submit. “It is a lot
of work,” she notes, but adds that when it comes time to
apply for college, “everything is right there.” Good record
keeping, summarizing activities and accomplishments
are all components of the DJM book, but it is a great
help when it comes time to apply for scholarships and
prepare for the interview process.”
Involvement on the Junior level is another way
for youth to gain confidence in themselves and their
abilities, Terri believes. “Junior Holstein Club is a way
for kids to excel in a whole different way from sports
or academics. They gain confidence in themselves and
that confidence might not come from the same activity
– it could be from showing or an office held or dairy
bowl.” All of the Holdridges have been involved in the
show ring and done well in showmanship competition,
in addition to Dairy Bowl, from a very young age.
With two of their children involved on the Junior
Association Executive Committee, Rick and Terri have
seen how much these positions have done for them.
“Executive Committee teaches leadership, and working
with Patsy (New York Executive Manager Patsy Gifford)
teaches responsibility.” The Junior Executive Committee
operates by 10 standing committees as well as a
president, recording secretary, financial secretary, and
two Distinguished Junior Members. These positions are
selected each year at the Junior Convention.
For Holdridges, the pluses of being an active Junior
Holstein member are many. “You hate to have your kids
miss this,” says Terri, recognizing that youth today are so
busy and have so many possibilities for activities. “But
this is a great group of kids – they are well-mannered
and well-behaved.” In addition, the skills gained through
involvement with the Junior Holstein Association will
serve the young people throughout their lives. “Whether
they choose farming or not, they learn a lot. They learn
things that will definitely help shape their future.”
&DWK\*DOOH\±&KHQDQJR&RXQW\
With no agriculture classes in their local schools,
Cathy Galley is a strong believer in youth being active in
the Junior Holstein Association. Cathy and Dave Galley
operate Silver Spoon Dairy in Garrattsville along with
their family. Daughter Sonya is a past New York State
DJM and is now home managing the Silver Spoon herd.
Son Sean has been involved with the Junior Executive
Committee and was a member of the winning Senior
Dairy Bowl team in 2010. Because there is no FFA or
ag. curriculum in many schools today, Cathy sees a
real value in the DJM books and all the work that goes
into them. “With no agriculture program in the schools,
there is no emphasis on records. The DJM program
helps youth to get an in-depth perspective, a business
perspective on farming.” Involvement with Junior
Holstein club and participating in regular meetings also
helps young people learn parliamentary procedure and
how to run an efficient meeting.
Travel and the opportunity to do so have been an
added bonus for the Galleys. Both Sonya and Sean have
traveled to National Conventions. Cathy also sees that
the travel can help Juniors gain an appreciation for good
quality animals. “They even learn to appreciate their
own animals and what they have at home,” she states.
“The Junior Holstein Association is a great deal for
kids!” she says. In addition to the terrific opportunities
it can bring, Cathy has seen how participation in Junior
activities has helped her own children clarify their
career goals and determine what it is that they want to
1<1'HFHPEHU
do in the future. “And the net working you establish is
phenomenal!” again, through meeting people from all
over the state and even the world.
When asked about Dairy Bowl in particular, Cathy is
quick to point out that the gain in factual knowledge is
very important, but the teamwork that she has observed
among her Juniors is just as inspiring. Referring to her
senior team, Cathy points out that the kids learn each
other’s strengths and learn to encourage each other
and build each other up. She has seen first-hand how
the youth capitalize on each team member’s individual
strengths for the benefit of the whole team. In addition,
the team learns to work together and they gain a mutual
respect for one another, another life-changing skill that
will no doubt serve each of them in the future.
Cathy has also seen how non-farm youth benefit from
involvement with Junior Holstein activities. In speaking
about showing at fairs, she notes that non-farm kids
get exposed to various kinds of agriculture and learn
hands-on. “Regardless of if they farm or not, they will be
consumers all their lives and they learn how food gets to
their table.” This is certainly significant today as more
and more of society is removed from agriculture.
So what would she say to parents of younger kids
thinking about being active in the Junior Holstein
Association? “Jump in with both feet! Get involved as
much as you can! And have fun!! There is a niche for
everyone.”

After five years of active involvement with
Cortland County Holstein Juniors, it is clear how much
Charlene Ryan loves what she does and believes in the
opportunities it presents to today’s youth. She and her
husband Steve have two children with daughter Brooke
(15) being a very involved Junior member. “The kids
learn more about the dairy industry and that there are
different ways of doing things.” Seeing different kinds
of dairy operations exposes Juniors to different housing,
different management, and different breeding programs.
A big part of what the Cortland County Junior Holstein
Club does is education, and this past year, they invited
Kathy Finnerty, Extension Associate from the Animal
Health and Disease Laboratory, to talk with the Juniors
about how to answer questions from the public at
fairs and other places. Charlene also sees that youth
who have been involved with Junior Holstein Club are
better prepared for college in that they have a sound
knowledge of dairy farming today.
This year, the Cortland County Junior Holstein Club
will be represented by 15 members plus their adult
advisors. “They meet kids from around the state and
they make friends from all over, not just their own
town. Convention is also a good place for kids to be
with others who share the same interests and qualities
they do.” Each of the Cortland County Juniors must
participate in at least one Junior Convention activity, be
it speech, Dairy Bowl, Dairy Jeopardy, or a leadership
1<1'HFHPEHU
position. The Cortland County Juniors also work very
hard to raise money to help defray the cost of going to
convention. “We have various fund raisers throughout
the year. We have had spaghetti dinners, pancake
breakfasts, and in November, we were invited by Janice
Sears to run the food booth at her herd dispersal.”
This kind of hard work certainly helps the Juniors to
appreciate convention and being able to participate
even more. They learn the value of working toward a
goal. And the parents are also actively involved!
Asked about how she sees the youth growing as
persons through their Holstein Club involvement,
Charlene notes that the confidence gained through
speech contest is particularly apparent. “The kids have
an ease at getting up in front of people and speaking.”
This again will undoubtedly serve them in good stead for
the rest of their lives. In addition, she knows how highly
competitive colleges are getting and how aware schools
are of youth involved with Junior Holstein Association
on the state and local level. “Colleges are looking at kids
and how well they have done.” She also sees that skills
gained through Junior membership will benefit young
people well beyond their high school years. She knows
that kids have to make choices – sports, music, extracurricular activities – but is a firm believer that adults
need to emphasize activities that will benefit young
people the most in the future. She has seen it firsthand in Cortland County Junior Holstein members and
encourages the parents of younger kids to get involved
with their kids, encourage them, and watch all the great
things that begin to unfold.

Thank you to each of the four ladies who shared their
perspectives and ideas. While each brought a little bit
different spin to the conversation, there was definitely a
common theme among them – Yes, kids are busy today
and have so many opportunities, but Junior Holstein
Association is one for life! Repeatedly they used the
same vocabulary – enjoyment, learning, responsibility,
teamwork, growth, leadership, friendship, and values –
to name just a few. It’s our hope, through their
words and guidance, that younger kids and their
parents will see just how much can be gained
through active participation in the New York
Junior Holstein Association and the local Junior
Holstein Clubs. Because underlying it all –
it’s about the kids … and the kids having fun!

Legends of the Fall Sale Comes to NY
One of autumn’s premier Holstein sales made its way
to the Empire State October 21, as Coyne Farms, Inc.,
Avon, hosted The Legends of the Fall Sale to the tune
of a $14,467 average on the lots offered. Among those
presented to the crowd were offspring of many of the
breed’s most elite females, and the crowd gathered for
the sale eagerly took the opportunity to acquire these
top genetics. The sale, managed by Jeff Butler & Ed
Fellers, saw cattle widely distributed throughout the
United States, but New York breeders kept nearly half
the offerings for themselves.
Following welcomes by sale host Brian Coyne and
sale management, Richmond-FD Pompey-ET made her
way to the ring for consignors Richmond Farms Dairy,
North Collins, NY. The number two GTPI daughter of her
sire, Massey, this heifer sold with two bull contracts and
further interest in bulls and embryos. Her dam is an EX,
EX-MS Ramos with records to 1489f, then next dam was
a Pippin with 1406f. Spirited bidding ended with Jeff
Butler, Springfield, IL, placing the final bid at $20,000.
High seller on the day came in lot number two,
Foxberry Stream Myra 619-ET (VG-86, 2y) with GTPI
+2185, a fancy, good-uddered young Jet Stream
daughter with numerous contracts to date and plentiful
interest for the future. Her dam was a 2E-92 GMDDOM Outside daughter with 1887f, the next dam by
Rudolph was 3E-94-DOM with two records over 1500f.
Not surprisingly, the Jet Stream sported a +5.9PL and
commanded the $65,000 bid of sale hosts, Coyne Farms.
Jeff Butler & Morsan Farms, consigned the day’s
second-high seller at $63,000, first choice Gold Chip
female out of Ms Atlees Shottle Aubry-ET (VG-88,
EX-MS), well-known Shottle daughter of MD-Delight
Durham Atlee-ET (EX-92-DOM) with +1811 GTPI. The
choice was taken by The Power Group, Overland Park,
KS. Close behind at $62,000 was first choice Snowman
daughter of Regancrest S Chassity-ET (EX-92-DOM),
the headliner of a $1.5 million package that topped the
2009 International Intrigue Sale. Chassity, the dam of the
popular Gold Chip bull, is out of Regancrest Cinderella
FOXBERRY STREAM MYRA 619-ET $65,000
Top seller of the Legends of the Fall Sale pictured with sale
staff and members of the Coyne Family, sale hosts and buyers.
WELCOME
Brian Coyne welcomes the crowd to the Legends of the Fall
Sale with Sale Managers Jeff Butler and Ed Fellers looking on.
(EX-92 GMD-DOM), followed by Regancrest PR Barbie
(EX-92 GMD-DOM) who is writing her own chapter in
the annals of Holstein history. This choice was taken by
In Touch Genomics, Overland Park, KS.
Still fresh in many people’s minds was Harvue Roy
Frosty’s second Supreme Championship win at the
International Holstein Show a couple weeks prior, so the
chance at her first choice Gold Chip daughter was a hot
commodity at $60,000. Frosty, owned by Mike & Julie
Duckett, Jim & Nancy Junemann, & Dr. Scott Armbrust,
was recently raised in score to 2E-96, is a sixth generation
VG or EX, and already has two All-American wins to
her credit. Extending the final nod were Frank & Diane
Borba, Peter Vail, and Joe Price. Also from the Chief Adeen family was first choice
Snowman daughter of Ms Atlees Goldwyn Ariel-ET
(VG-89, EX-MS), the Reserve All-American Jr. 2-Yr-Old
in 2009 and a full sister to the very popular Aftershock
and Atwood bulls. Ariel offspring have tested as high as
+2257 GTPI and this offering commanded a $58,000 bid
from In Touch Genomics, while Ms Ariel Manoman AvaET, born in June, was the $26,200 selection of The Power
Group.
Staying in New York was the consignment of Clear
Echo Farm LLC, Schuylerville, NY, another Snowman
choice due in June and out of Clear-Echo 822 Ramo
1200-ET (EX-92-DOM), dam of the $91,000 top of the
2010 National Convention Sale in June. With a GTPI of
+2083, the popular Ramos daughter is becoming one
of the breed’s most-sought-after females and Fly Higher
Holsteins, Valley Falls, NY, placed the final bid at $39,700.
Other sale highlights included: Coyne-Farms Freddi
Jeven-ET, an Oct. ’09 Freddie from Coyne-Farms Ramos
Jelly at $33,700 and Coyne-Farms Mass Jill-ET, her
maternal sister and the number one Massey in the breed
at $15,200; first choice female by Bookem at $22,000
from Regancrest Brasilia-ET (VG-88, EX-MS) who sold as
a package with sons and daughters in the 2009 Parade of
Perfection Sale for $1.5 million.

$36,500 Top at New York Harvest Sale
A huge crowd and an outstanding line up of cattle
beautifully prepared, made for another successful New
York Harvest Sale as 110 full lots averaged $3212 on the
Cornell campus in Ithaca. October 23. Hosted by the
Cornell University Dairy Science Club, an added bonus
to this year’s event was a reunion of CUDS members who
traveled in from far and wide to renew acquaintances
and enjoy the sale.
If all things can come together for a sale offering,
it happened in Tiger-Lily Dtry Lona-Red-ET, a May
’10 Scientific Destry-ET daughter who combines
just what the market is demanding: red, polled, high
genomics, deep cow family, and the type to go with it
all! Consigned by Marshman Farms, Oxford, lots of presale interest combined with the energy of the crowd as
bidding quickly rose to over $30,000. In the end, it was
the Liz Partners, c/o the Faus Family, Rock Stream, who
prevailed in placing the $36,500 bid. At +2122, the calf
is the number one red & white genomic heifer in the
United States and carried A.I. interest at sale time with
more coming. Her Lawnboy dam was fresh and off to
a great start in her first lactation with 4.1%f, the next
dam is an EX-91 September Storm on track to finish over
1900f this lactation and a fourth generation VG or EX.
Great annual supporters of the Harvest Sale, Dr. Barry
& Diane England, Williamsburg, PA, went to $16,500 to
own Clear-Echo Ramos 1771-ET (VG-85, VG-MS) with
GTPI +2012 and making a fine record at 2-00.By Ramos,
she was out of a VG-87 Toystory with 1387f at 2-04, the
following five dams were all over 1100f and carried the
Kings-Ransom prefix, as did the cow family beyond the
top-seller’s dam. Clear Echo Farm LLC, Schuylerville,
was the consignor.
Carlton C. Bull, West Chazy, took home two of the
higher sellers, including the $11,000 Ms Welcome Super
Trisha-ET, an April ’10 Super calf from a VG-86 Colby
averaging nearly 120 lbs. a day in her first four months
at 1-10. The consignment of William Peck and Peter Vail,
Schuylerville, the next dam was a VG-88 FBI with 1261f,
followed by two more VG dams both over 1200f. At
$5100, Bull took Tom & Nancy Murray’s fancy Goldwyn
daughter, Muranda Goldwyn Anne-ET, from the Adeen
family. Her dam, Larkindale-R Shttle Anna-ET (VG-87)
was backed by 4x Jr. All-American Nominee Ridgedale
Ava-ET (EX-92), then 3E-92 Lee Amy, 2E-94-DOM Chief
Adeen, and Starbuck Ada (2E-94-DOM).
The sale was managed by managed by The Cattle
Exchange and sponsored by the NYHA. Dave Rama
handled the auctioneer’s gavel with Horace Backus
highlighting the pedigrees. Accepting bids from all over
the Livestock Pavilion were Don Welk, Patsy Gifford,
Ray LeBlanc, Rick Verbeek, Tom Harkenrider, and Jason
Pullis. Merry Rama and Amber Newman were at the
clerk’s table and the cattle were presented by CUDS
members. Mathew Bull was Sale Chairman for this
year’s event, with Jordan Fisher heading up the barn
crew.

LEAN, my hoof! We’re scrawny and exhausted.
What you need is cottonseed!
It has the nutrients and energy
you need to maintain healthy

Adding cottonseed to your feed mix is good for your cows and your
overall milk production. The high fat content of cottonseed provides
energy for milk production and can even increase the butterfat
content of your cows’ milk. For more information, call 1-800-334-5868

Rohe Farms Dispersal Averages $1771
October 9 was a rare opportunity
to purchase from one of New
York State’s best all-around herds
and buyers appreciated the hard
work and dedication that Steve &
Trish Rohe and Family had done
in breeding this great herd. The
herd’s
accomplishments
were
many: 21 years a PBR herd, 56
homebred Excellents to date, a
former World Champion for milk
production with 453,000M lifetime
and another cow at 396,000M, a
homebred All-American Jr. 2-YearOld, and many, many more. Sale
Manager David Rama called it “one
of the greatest sets of cattle for a
herd dispersal we have ever sold”
and as the Rohe family gathered in
the ring at the start of the auction,
Rama noted that “everything that
is right with this country is in
this ring right now.” The crowd’s
applause signified its approval
and affection for the Rohes. Final
numbers showed a $1771 average
on 128 full lots with cattle scattered
throughout New York State, Ohio,
Texas, and Pennsylvania, as well as
the Canadian provinces of Quebec
and Ontario.
Great show cattle were certainly
a part of the day’s offering and
Lantland Farms, Ltd., Horseheads,
went to $5,600 to own Rohes
Koral Best (EX-90), a tremendous
daughter of Hidden-View Best who
was the winning 4-year-old and
Senior & Grand Champion at the
2010 OnWego Holstein Show. Big
and powerful, she sold averaging
nearly 120 lbs. of milk in her first 5
months this year and was due again
in March to Shottle. Her dam was
a VG-85 Throne daughter and third
generation over 1100 fat.
Another show ring favorite,
Rohes Durham Electra (EX-92) was
the $5100 choice of Roger Schug,
Monroeville, OH. One of several
outstanding Durham daughters
offered in the sale, this big, massive
black cow was the first-place 5-yearold at the 2010 NY Spring Junior
Show for Meghan Rohe. Her dam
was an EX Rudolph daughter that
sold on service to Durham to Ralph
Bowering, Fulton, the next two
dams were VG-87 & VG-88, both
over 34,000 milk.
Ken
Beerwort,
Knowlton,
Quebec, made the journey south
and was a great supporter of the
sale, taking home 16 head in all
including the day’s third-high seller,
Rohes Durham Misty Dusk-ET,
another fancy Durham daughter
bred to Shottle. Her dam was an
EX-90 Roy with 1145 fat at 3-03,
followed by the All-American Rohes
Leduc Misty Sue (EX-92) with
1589 fat and two more VG dams.
Ransom Rail Farm, Perry, chose
her full sister, Rohes Durham Misty
May, a September ’09 heifer due
in November to Shampoo. Gordon
Wood, Tioga, PA, took the third full
sister offered at $3600, she fresh in
September and off to a good start.
Wood was another strong supporter
of the sale, extracting 17 head in all.
His top purchase was Rohes Kristin
Best (EX-92), another Rohe-bred
Grand Champion in 2009 sired by
Hidden-View Best that completed
six generations of VG & EX.
Rama
handled
the
Dave
auctioneer’s
gavel
throughout
with Horace Backus to his right
on pedigrees. Accepting bids were
Don Welk (who purchased 16 head
throughout the day), Larry Hill,
and Jason Pullis. Merry Rama and
Amber Newman capably handled
the clerking duties. The cattle were
beautifully prepared and the local
junior Holstein club kept everyone
well fed throughout the sale.
