Replacement Heifer Program

This is the official website for the Chowchilla-Madera Replacement Heifer Program Committee.  This committee oversees a 2 year program in which a student starts a 4-5 month old dairy calf at the Madera Fair, shows their project at either the next Chowchilla Fair or the following Madera Fair and then sell at the second Chowchilla-Madera District Fair as a springer.  The Dairy auction is held on the Thursday evening of the Chowchilla Fair and features a buyer's dinner, presentation of scholarships and awards followed by the Replacement Heifer Auction.
