Farm News: WI Youth Shows Dairy Pride To WincommentsPosted: 10.31.2011
Matt Diederichs, a 17-year-old from Wisconsin, has won the dairy checkoff’s 2011 Show Your Pride producer photo contest.
The goal of the contest was for producers to submit photos depicting their support of the National Football League partnership, Fuel Up to Play 60 (FUTP 60) and their love of the dairy industry. Matt’s photo – depicting his passion for the Green Bay Packers – has earned him a visit from an NFL player to his family’s farm – Dan and Lori Diederichs Dairy in Fond du Lac, Wis.
Contest photos were posted at www.backtofootballcelebration.com where producers and industry allies could select their favorite image. More than 3,000 votes were cast.
The dairy checkoff, in partnership with the NFL, launched FUTP 60 in 2009. It promotes good nutrition – including low-fat and fat-free dairy – and physical fitness in our nation’s schools to help defeat childhood obesity (the No. 1 public health issue facing our country).
More than 70,000 schools actively participate in FUTP 60, representing two-thirds of the nation’s school districts.
