Now that graduates have crossed the stage, what's next?  Ben Jarboe chats about graduate demand in the agriculture field with Tammy Jensen, president of Agri-Careers recruiting agency.  She says there's been more unemployment in agriculture over the last 12-18 months then normally experienced.  Right now Jensen says graduates are looking for sales and manager jobs but may be left out.  Jensen says they're finding demand for "hands-on" jobs that need to be filled now, but may turn into advanced positions quickly.  

Should be a beautiful Saturday for June Dairy Celebrations, but rain returns Sunday.  That's the outlook from Stu Muck.

Her passion for her pooch, Cooper, is taking a Trempealeau County 4-H member to Portugal in July.  Charitee Seebecker finds out about the excitement, 15-year old Addison Connolly of Galesville is preparing for.  Through her 4-H dog project, Connolly and her 6 year old border collie, Cooper made the cut on Team USA for the Junior Open Agility World Championship. Connolly says in the beginning she used hand signals, but now it's all vocal commands.  Cooper can understand going left or right, and has about 7 different commands/cues for just the jump obstacle alone.

All the June dairy celebrations popping up across the state don't just happen.  It takes a tremendous amount of time, coordination and volunteers to bring it all together.  Green County has over 40 years of experience when it comes to pulling things together. Stephanie Hoff talks to two staples of the Green County history.  Bob and Nancy Faith recall memories from their experience hosting the first-ever Green County Breakfast on the Farm 45 years ago. They started a few traditions as trailblazers, which are unique to the Green County breakfast: coffee cake instead of pancakes, and strawberries served on the ice cream.
