Hi there! Here’s another report from the Rapid City 4-H Beef Club. We had our monthly meeting April 12 at Hedley's house where we heard a few different reports from members about the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair. Some were showing cattle and some were also in the calf scramble. It sounded like everyone who attended had a good time! 

Shirts, halters, and neck ties were ordered for our upcoming shows. Hoof trimming will be done at Horner's farm in early June. We also spoke about ideas for a parade float for Rapid City’s fair on June 25. We narrowed it down to one and hopefully it will look as good on the float as in our heads! 

Our club will also be running our annual fundraising canteen at Rapid City Rodeo on May 28 and 29. As well as the canteen, we will be raffling off a large barbecue gift basket. We hope everyone can come out and enjoy some good rodeo entertainment with a burger, piece of pie or ice-cream in hand, and maybe someone will leave with a great prize as well!

Until next month!
