It was another national team victory for five young ladies from Polk County 4-H. They topped the first-ever North American Dairy Educational Experience held in December. The NADEE contest was developed to provide a dairy learning experience because the in-person National 4-H Dairy Bowl Contest was canceled due to COVID-19.
The first-place team from Polk County in northwestern Wisconsin includes Courtney Glenna, Katherine Elwood, Ella Williamson, Grace Haase and Hailey Clausen. Glenna, Elwood and Williamson are students at Amery High School. Haase is a freshman at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls, and Clausen is a freshman at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities.
