The purpose of Bovine Club is to provide additional opportunities for all students, regardless of their level of previous experience with dairy and beef cattle, to enrich their veterinary education and experiences through seminars, tours, wet labs and other activities. Students also gain access to information from the American Association of Bovine Practitioners through Bovine Club. Bovine Club is one of three organizations (including P.I.G. and Small Ruminant Club) that meet together as the Production Medicine Club. Annual activities include palpation labs and the SAVMA Symposium palpation team, field necropsy lab, hoof trimming course, winter farm tours, vaccination and blood draw labs, lunch speakers, “Dairy Farming 101,”FAPM research, Hoard’s Dairyman Judging Contest, and outreach activities, including the Saturday Enrichment Program, Grandparents’ University, Badger Dairy Camp, and World Dairy Expo. As a group, the Production Medicine Clubs hold a large animal practice fair, 3-on-3 basketball tournament, fall picnic and volleyball tournament. We look forward to meeting you soon at a club meeting.
