The leader of the Madison-based FarmFirst Dairy
Cooperative's board of directors will serve another term in office. John
Rettler of Neosho was re-elected president of the group during the co-op's
annual meeting last week in Oshkosh. He was first elected to the Family Dairies
USA board more than a decade ago.
Board members also elected Steve Brock of Daggett, Michigan,
to serve as vice-president. Kathy Bauer from Faribault, Minnesota, will again
serve as secretary. And Wayne Gajewski of Athens was elected treasurer.
Meanwhile, Bob Dietzel, East Dubuque, Illinois; Rich Meyer,
Unity; and Brian Wozniak, Stanley were re-elected to the board for another
three-year term.
Based in Madison, FarmFirst Dairy Cooperative was
established in 2013 and represents farms in Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Dakota,
Michigan, Iowa, Illinois and Indiana.
