Ag Groups Urged to Volunteer at State Fair's House of Moo
Wisconsin Ag Connection - 07/19/2018

Coordinators of the Wisconsin State Fair's popular House of Moo are looking for FFA chapters, 4-H clubs and other ag-related groups to volunteer their services for a day.

The House of Moo is a hands-on education center located in the dairy barn. It features several interactive stations, requiring volunteers who can answer questions and operate activities.

Sponsored by the Wisconsin State Fair Dairy Promotion Board, the area will be open daily throughout the entire fair, which takes place August 2-12 in West Allis. Volunteer groups are asked to arrive by 7:30 a.m. for training and set-up and can leave around 8 p.m.

"Not only will this be an exciting educational opportunity for your chapter or club, but we have an incentive package to offer, which might make this opportunity even more appealing," HOM Supervisor Lauren Metcalf. "Some of these perks include a $300 stipend for each group, State Fair admission tickets, a free t-shirt for all volunteers, and sandwich coupons for the Real Wisconsin Cheese Grill."

For more information or to sign your group up to help at the House of Moo, call 608-322-4079.
