2017 Lanesboro graduate and veterinarian Dr. Alyssa (Gathje) McGowan visited our College in the Schools Animal Science class to share her experiences and insights into the veterinary profession.
Dr. McGowan provided an excellent presentation on a day in the life of a large animal veterinarian, highlighting both the rewards and responsibilities of the profession. She also shared valuable advice on the high school and college preparation needed to pursue a career in veterinary medicine.
Mrs. Ruen dug up a photo of FFA member Alyssa working at the Miracle of Birth Center at the Minnesota State Fair in 2015, an experience that helped her gain valuable hands-on experience.
We appreciate Dr. McGowan taking the time to share her knowledge, experiences, and career advice with our students!

In more great Burro work outside the classroom, Bryndle Sveen and her horse, “Patrick” Spooks Gotta Boom, were crowned Youth 13 & Under Champions at the All American Quarter Horse Congress, one of the largest single-breed horse shows in the world!
The duo put together an outstanding 217 ½-point ride to take home the championship title!
Bryndle trains alongside her parents through their family business, Freiheit Reiners, where she has dedicated countless hours to developing her skills, horsemanship, and partnership with her horses.
Her hard work is certainly paying off! Bryndle and Patrick are also currently ranked Top 10 in the nation in the NRHA Youth 13 & Under division.

Congratulations to Rylee Nelson, and her family, on exhibiting the Grand Champion Breeding Gilt at the Aksarben Stock Show in Nebraska!
