We had a small but mighty group for our meeting today! We toured Kibler Farm and got to see a major beef cattle operation in Shenandoah County. These 4-Hers learned a ton and what a better way to spend Beef Month! 🥩

Thank you Mr. Randy for having us out and showing us your farm!

The Dairy Poster Contest information arrived just in time for our meeting tomorrow!

The club will provide poster board and art supplies at the meeting. We’ll have a table available, but since we won’t be at our usual meeting location, feel free to bring a clipboard or another sturdy surface to work on under your poster.

You’re also welcome to take your poster home and finish it there. If you can’t attend the meeting but would still like to participate, you can pick up poster board from Lauren or the Extension Office.

Lauren can submit completed posters on June 5 if you’d like her to handle turn-in.

Let’s get creative and have fun!
