CARNDUFF — The Carnduff 4-H Beef Club’s monthly general meeting was held in Carnduff on March 8.
We took club photos, and the winners of our halter-breaking challenge were announced. Members could participate in this challenge by sending in $5 and a video to our leaders of calves being led within a set timeframe. The money was split between the challenge winners.
Our project meeting directly followed, and members worked on our record books together.
Record books are on the brain, and we met again as a group in Carnduff to continue working on them on March 21. Each member has to complete a record book every year for their animals. It takes a lot of time and effort, so getting started early is a good idea.
Finally, we had nine of our club members attend the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair from March 27-April 1 in Brandon. We had a busy week in the barn. We all participated in showmanship, and we had calves in both the steer and heifer shows throughout the week. We had a lot of fun, and are looking forward to the spring show season which is just around the corner.
