I had an amazing time, despite my condition, and am ever so grateful to have been able to be part of the Young Adult Convention. I am glad to have been able to meet other young adults who have similar views to mine and are going through similar scenarios in there endeavors to take over family farms. The young adult convention is an incredible opportunity and I want to make sure that I convey my sincerest appreciation for the opportunity so that other young adults will be able to go in the future." -Niels vanBeek "I just wanted to take the opportunity to say a large heartfelt thank you to the entire branch for having been given the opportunity to travel to the Holstein Convention this year as a young adult.

I think it is a great chance for the future of the industry to gete together with each other while at the same time share in the wealth of knowledge from those that are shaping the industry today." -Julia James "I'd like to extend a sincere thank you for allowing me to represent Ontario as a delegate at the Young Adult Convention.
