70th Alice in Dairyland
Mar. 27, 2018
Farmgirl The new Alice in Dairyland grew up on her family’s registered Holstein dairy farm near Cleveland, Wis. She was active in Manitowoc County and Wisconsin Junior Holstein associations. She represented Wisconsin at national dairy judging and dairy quiz bowl competitions. “I look forward to traveling throughout this great state of Wisconsin promoting our $88.3 billion diversified agriculture industry,” said Siemers-Peterman after receiving congratulations from her predecessor, Ann O’Leary. “I’m a firm believer that consumers are smart, but looking for reassurance in making the right food purchases for their families,” she continued. “And as the 70th Alice in Dairyland, I will provide Wisconsin, national and global residents the confidence to buy Wisconsin products, and share the message that makes Wisconsin agriculture so incredibly great.” Attending the State Fair as a youth, and seeing Alice in Dairyland in action first piqued her interest in the position. When the announcement seeking applicants for the 70th Alice was made in January, she decided to apply.
“I knew that I wanted to make a difference, and I felt ready to take on this role of supporting and promoting Wisconsin agriculture,” said Siemers-Peterman. Later this month, she will graduate from the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities with a major in agricultural and food business management and a minor in marketing. Previously, she interned with Sassy Cow Creamery, FLM+ Advertising Agency and Land O’Lakes Inc. Provided by Dina Pocernich |

District Governor Update
Jul. 10, 2018
Meet 2018 - 2019 District 6250 Governor Bill HoelBill likes to tell people he was a Rotarian before he ever joined Rotary. He participated in a community project in 1992 which sent 400,000 pounds of food, clothing and medical supplies to a sister city in Russia – and raised all of that in 26 days. Bill saw nearly everyone on the committee was a member of Rotary, so when he was asked later that year to join the La Crosse Rotary Club (Downtown), he readily accepted. Bill will quickly bring up how proud he is to be a member of Rotary. He believes no other organization allows people to perform such a wide – and deep – variety of service around the world. In 2004, Bill led a club project that sent 240 wheelchairs to La Crosse’s sister city of Dubna, Russia. |
