The gift of "Family"

posted Apr 10, 2011 4:37 AM by Virginia Holstein


The painting, "Family", is a gift from Loudoun County, VA artist Mary Hope Worley.  The painting is a scene from a western Loudoun County.  In the background is the Blue Ridge Mountain and the barn from Round Oak Farm.  In front of the barn is the world renown Holstein bull, Round Oak Rag Apple Elevation.  All of the Holsteins in the picture can be traced back to "Elevation".  The frame is from the wooden door that hung next to "Elevation's" pen while he was at Round Oak.  The artist is a cousin of Ronald Hope and was raised on a family farm just south of Leesburg.  

The painting has been donated to Holstein Foundation for the benefit of youth programs and will auctioned at the beginning of the National Holstein Convention Sale on Friday, June 24.

2010 Annual Meeting of the Virginia Holstein Association

posted Oct 12, 2009 5:35 PM by Virginia Holstein   [ updated Mar 12, 2011 2:03 PM ]

By Terry Perotti Lam

 

            This year’s annual membership meeting was held December 10 and 11 at the Holiday Inn Staunton Golf and Conference Center.  On Friday, December 10, the Region 4 Holstein Meeting was held with about twenty members and presenters in attendance.  Discussion included an overview of Holstein Association programs, updates and possible bylaw changes. That evening, there was an adult and junior ice cream social.

            The next morning, Lindsey Worden, from the Holstein Association gave a presentation.  The annual membership meeting was called to order by President Matt Nuckols. The meeting included review of the financial reports, old and new business of the association, nominating committee report and election of directors.  At the reorganization meeting, the following officers were elected: Past President, Jimmy Kerr, President, Matthew Nuckols, Vice President, Lois Skeen, Secretary/Treasurer, Margie Ann Dick, Public Director, Barbara Clary. Riley Wagner gave a short National Convention sale report stating that selections would begin in February. They are looking for either high genomic consignments (at least 2000 GTPI) or exceptional show animals. Sale consignments are not required to be genomically tested, but it is in the best interest of consigner to do so.  Matt Nuckols discussed his experiences with genomic testing. The 50 K test is $135 and is 70% reliable. The 3 K test is $35 and is 60% reliable.

            Discussion was also brought up about the format of the annual meeting; if it should be one day or two and what time of year it should be?  Another item to consider is whether to have a State sale or not or if it should be moved to fall?  If a Virginia Holstein member has an opinion one way or the other, they should contact one of the board members

            Also, Virginia breeders will be given a discount advertising in the Holstein World and Southeastern Holstein News in the May issue for the souvenir booklet especially printed for the National Holstein Convention in Richmond.  Frank Putnam, from Holstein World, was in attendance and welcomed Virginia breeders to advertise in the publication at a discount through April 1st.

            The adult and junior awards luncheon was held at noon.  Master of Ceremonies was David Winston.  Virginia Dairy Princess, Ashley Rubush, presented a milk toast. This year’s Meritorious Service Award was presented by Mike Hendrix to David Barns.  David could not make it to the luncheon, but he will receive a clock plaque, sponsored by Riley and Barbara Wagner.  David has served on several committees and was sale chairman for many years.  He has served as both Vice President and President of the Virginia Holstein Association and was President of the Appalachian Holstein Club for 21 years.  He has friends everywhere and recently moved to North Carolina.

            Lois Skeen presented the Kerr’s with a farm sign in appreciation for hosting the 2010 field day.

            Earlier, the juniors held a public speaking contest, had a membership meeting with election of officers, and then many participated in dairy jeopardy.  The following participated in Minnesota at the 2010 National Convention: Speech contest-Jr. Tripp Bopp, Intermediate Matthew Liskey, Senior division Liz Leonard.  Dairy Jeopardy-Junior Logan Potts, Cole Leonard, Isabelle Leonard, Intermediate Haley Potts. Digital Scrapbook-Jr. Holstein President Jamie Kerr.
