In cooperation with the New York Guernsey Breeders’ Cooperative, the New York Guernsey Youth Association was created for any Guernsey breeder or enthusiast who is under the age of 21.
Under the direction of the Junior State Advisor, youth members are led by a five member officer team and meet throughout the year at Guernsey events. Youth members are eligible to apply for state and national awards, scholarships, and take part in different events throughout the year.
