Auburn Poultry Science Club is US Poultry & Egg Association's Club of the Year
This year at the International Poultry Expo, Auburn's Poultry Science Club proudly took home the 2011 Club of the Year award. The club also placed second in the scrapbook competition.
Over 25 different universities with over 300 students were in attendance for this year's International Poultry Expo and all universities with active poultry science clubs or related clubs that represent poultry science students were eligible to apply for this award. The award is based on the club activities for the past year, including: community involvement, education and outreach, fundraising, and general activities.
This year's club has been very active and ambitious—the members have visited 20 high schools in the state for recruiting, raised over $6000 in the fall smoked chicken sale, served as group leaders for the summer P.E.E.P.S. Camps, and hosted over 150 4th graders and parents on campus for a day of poultry science activities. This is just a small portion of what the club has been involved in this year and the members are looking forward to making 2011 an even more successful year!
