Mervin 4-H Beef Cub members have been busy this year with lots of fun activities with still lots more to come.
Dec. 31, we had a tobogganing party and campfire at Bannerman’s farm.
In February we had a meeting at the Wooff’s farm where we worked on record books and got plans underway for achievement day.
In March we had speech night. Jim and Nancy Range were the judges. Members appreciate the fact they took time out of their busy lives to judge speeches. First place in Cloverbud was Jarred Bannerman. First place in junior was Brant Bannerman and second was Colin Wooff. First place in intermediate was James Monteith, second was Jayden Bannerman. First in senior was Melissia Monteith.
March 23 we went to Diamond 7 Meats where Aaron Lundquist gave members a tour. He showed us all the steps to butchering a beef animal. We learned where the best cuts of meat come from on a steer.
The next activity will be a strawberry tea and bake sale April 4 at the Mervin Complex at 2 p.m.
