School Tours

Each year hundreds of school students from Madison and surrounding areas partake in World Dairy Expo's Children's Educational Program (School Tours). The 2-hour outdoor tour is especially designed to help educated 4th grade level children in a fun, hands-on environment.

For a fee of $1.00 per student, they receive a goodie bag, the chance to see some of the best dairy animals in the world, watch cows get milked and take-in the overall atmosphere of this one-of-a-kind show, plus they'll receive a cheese & milk snack.

Volunteer tour guides lead students, teachers and chaperones to designated stations located throughout the grounds.

During the days of the School Tours, World Dairy Expo provides easy entering and exiting of the grounds for buses, as well as a special parking area for them to park while they wait.

In 2010, schools will be scheduled on a first come, first serve basis. All schools will be required to have a guided tour. Please call or email for school tour application.
