At the end of May our 4-H club (Irricana Beef & Multi Club) goes in to Calgary to sell their projects. Roy just loves going down there and spending time with the animals. Here are a few pictures of our day at the Stampede Grounds prior to the boys & girls selling their projects. Yes this is a very hard day for the kids and some of the parents as well but you know they come back for another year of this. The money that the get from selling their projects go towards paying the bills for purchasing, feeding their projects and usually the remainder goes into the bank for school down the road.
Here is a new steer that we purchased for Steer Classic which is during the Calgary Stampede - his name is Mic Blue and we purchased him from Maddy Sibbald

Roy's little face just melts your heart. He is so cute.
Your sheep are so different from the ones we breed here on our place... we have merino's... thanks for the photo's xxx
This post reminds me so much of my youth! I showed sheep, both Hampshires and Sulfolks in 4-H...also steers too!!
Thanks Julie,
I love 4-H and really can't wait for him to be old enough as you have to be 9 years old to join our club.
