Due to the Cornwall Holstein Club Dinner and Prize Giving not being able to take place this year, Cornwall finished off the year by announcing the annual herds competition results online. The herd competition was held in September and thank you must go to Mr Colin Christophers and Mr Roger Goodman for taking the time to judge the competitions.

The next event in the diary is our On Farm Challenge which was postponed from October to February due to the Covid-19 situation which we are very much looking forward to.

2020 has been a busy year for sales, and we would like to take this opportunity to congratulate members from the Hayvalley, Willsbro and Pollamounter herds for successful recent sales. Congratulations must also go to the Willsbro herd for achieving Master Breeder status.

Finally, the club are delighted that Steven Harris and William Neale won the President’s Medal and Littlestar Awards respectively. This is a great accolade for them both and rounds up a successful year for the HYB.  Well done boys! The HYB would also like to thank Lisa Stubbs, Bethany Renfree, Jessica Hugo, Steven Harris and Cari Thomas for their fundraising efforts over October raising nearly £400 for the HYB and charity!
