The Wisconsin Beef Council and Wisconsin 4-H Foundation have kicked off a beef promotion contest open to all Wisconsin 4-H beef project members.  The goal of the contest is to encourage 4-H beef project members to create an informative and appealing display that will educate consumers attending fairs or other events throughout the summer.  Entries are submitted by 4-H clubs and are limited to one entry per club. A winner from each category will be chosen and a beef prize package will be presented to each 4-H member who contributed to the promotion creation.

Entries must be completed and sent to the Wisconsin Beef Council by September 30, 2023.

 For more information and complete rules, along with the required official entry form, please visit:  https://wis4hfoundation.org/wibeefcouncilcontest/ or email Amannda@Wis4HFoundation.org.

The Wisconsin Beef Council is a producer-led non-profit organization funded by the $1.00 per head assessment on all cattle sold in the state of Wisconsin per the Federal Beef Promotion and Research Act & Order. Half of one dollar remains in Wisconsin for local beef promotion, while the other half is forwarded to the Cattlemen’s Beef Board. The purpose of the Council is to fund beef promotion, research and consumer education activities supporting Wisconsin’s $2.1 billion beef industry. The WBC operates under the guidance of its Board of Directors. The Board is comprised of representatives from cattle-related organizations around the state of Wisconsin.
