So the Badger Dairy Club it's one of the biggest agriculture clubs on campus and what we do
in the Badger Dairy Club is that we have numerous members from all over the University of Wisconsin
- Madison that can play an active role in Badger Dairy Club, freshmen through seniors
and we do many different activities in the club such as what's going on behind us, the
grilled cheese stand at World Dairy Expo. So the grilled cheese stand is basically our
biggest fundraiser of the year and many of the members from campus come out here during
the week of Expo, Monday through Saturday, and are able to help fundraise for the club.
So what we do here is we make grilled cheese, swiss and American. And also new this year,
we have the ham and cheese which is ham with American and Swiss cheese as well. It depends
on the hour of the day, right around this time around noon there is a lot of people
that have to be staffed. We usually have 4 or 5 people working the counter. We have people
buttering bread, slicing the cheese as well as people making them. So we have roughly
4 people that make them during the time of rush hour. So there's many different activities
that students can partake in such as being a chair like I am a Secretary as well as participating
in different activities like going on different road trips. We have a mentorship program that
the younger members are able to have a mentor and relate to each other to know what goes
on in the club coming in as a freshman or sophomore. As part of the club I think one
of the biggest things you do is you gain leadership. Being able to just be yourself and be a leader
to other younger members and kind of show them the way around the club so when they
get to be older like I am they can do the leadership ability that I have. So leadership
is one of them as well as meeting new people. It's important to network with different people
because some day you never know, some of these people might be your bosses or your coworkers
so it's important to build a relationship and make friends in the club. It's a great
club to be a part of, it's one of my favorites on campus.
