The Wisconsin Cheese Makers Association (WCMA) has served as the voice of the cheese and dairy industry for over 130 years. Founded in 1891, WCMA brings together dairy manufacturers, processors, and marketers united by a passion for advancing the world’s finest dairy products. Today, WCMA supports more than 110 processing companies and 600 supplier partners, acting as a trusted source for advocacy, education and industry connections.
On July 16, 2025, we joined fellow industry colleagues in Central Wisconsin for WCMA’s annual Golf Outing & Trap Shoot, a day built on friendly competition, networking, and celebrating the region’s vibrant dairy community. This year’s gathering offered even more fun with the debut of WCMA’s first-ever Pickleball Tournament alongside the beloved golf scramble and trapshooting events.
Activities spread across five premier golf courses, including the newly added Ridges Golf Course. While some hit the greens for a classic scramble, others gathered at the WTA Homegrounds for trapshooting, and pickleball players brought energy to the tournament’s round-robin challenge. Shared lunches, social hours, and an evening gathering at Lake Arrowhead’s clubhouse provided the perfect setting for reconnecting with old friends and making new ones.
At the C.D. Smith photo booth, attendees captured memories and candid moments. The WCMA Golf Outing & Trap Shoot stands out as a highlight for members and leaders throughout the food, dairy, and cheese industries. It's an opportunity to celebrate achievements, strengthen connections and enjoy a day of friendship and camaraderie. Our thanks to everyone who played, posed and shared in the experience!
