Our club had it's general meeting on April 13th where we handed in our record books to be marked. On April 19th, I went to the Sun Country radio station in High River and recorded a blurb on our club which is to be played on AM 1060 at 12:40pm Saturdays. We also got a tour of the station. On April 27th we had our project meeting where we watched an interesting video on how to clip your animal. I am going to try to clip my heifer Gillian this week so hopefully any mistakes will have grown in by the big show at the Stampede Grounds at the end of the month.

We had our annual highway cleanup on Saturday, May 7th. The rain stayed away long enough for us to finish our stretch of highway. Afterwards we went for pizza at the Priddis Cafe and Grill, it was delicious. Thanks to Geoff and his crew for supplying the pop for all of us.

It's hard to believe 4-H On Parade is just around the corner, the heifer show will be on May 27th, the steer show on the 28th and the big sale on the 29th. Please stop by our stall and say "Hi" if you can make it down to the show and sale. We have 9 members who will be selling their "top notch, home raised Alberta beef" steers. If you would like more information about purchasing one, please call Susan Jeffery. Have a great May everyone!
