The Iowa dairy industry doubleheader will be Nov. 1 to 2 and feature a professional development workshop and a social networking tailgate co-hosted by the Iowa State University Extension and Outreach Dairy Team and the Dairy Science Club at Iowa State University.

The Iowa Veterinary Medical Association headquarters, in Ankeny, will offer “Professional Development for Iowa Dairy Industry Consultants” on Nov. 1. Beginning at 1:30 p.m., the program will offer hands-on learning opportunities and presentations from expert speakers on cutting-edge topics in dairy management. Following the workshop, attendees are invited to a social hour, sponsored by Elanco Animal Health, providing additional time for informal networking and discussion.

On Nov. 2, the event moves to Jack Trice Stadium in Ames for the Iowa Dairy Industry Tailgate, a fun and casual gathering for students, faculty, industry professionals, farmers and alumni. The tailgate will be held before the Iowa State Cyclones football game, with food, refreshments and plenty of time to connect and network. The Iowa State Dairy Science Club will also host its annual alumni reunion as part of this event. This event is sponsored by the Iowa State Dairy Association.
