Every year, the ABS Global team publishes a calendar for our dairy producers. It has been an iconic tool we see hanging in thousands of barns across the U.S. This year, we want your help building that calendar! Have you taken any photos of your calves? Have some great shots of your kids walking through the barn? Caught a beautiful sunset while you’re cows are on pasture? Please share them with us for a chance to make it into our annual calendar.
Eligibility: The contest is open to everyone, including ABS employees and authorized independent representatives. Each participant may enter as many photos as they wish. All photos must be submitted via EMAIL TO ABS.MARKETING@GENUSPLC.COM.
Judging: The ABS team will choose the top photos to be used in our calendar. The top 12 photos will be posted on the ABS Global Facebook page for our friends, families, and customers to vote for our calendar cover photo!
