Coming soon: Kerrobert’s Regional 4H Show and Sale

By Joan Janzen

The Kerrobert & District Ag Society is excited to announce its upcoming 76th Annual Regional 4H Show and Sale. The event will be held on June 1st at the Kerrobert Ag building. Although last year’s show and sale was cancelled, “4-H members are very good at finding buyers for their animals. They worked hard, and all of them were able to sell their steers,” Janice Moreland said. Janice is secretary/treasurer for Kerrobert & District Ag Society.

The opening ceremonies will be followed by team grooming and heifer and cow/calf classes. Showmanship and market-finished beef (steer) classes will be featured in the afternoon, with the sale of steers beginning at 3:30 p.m.

“We have 59 4-H members,” Janice explained. Those members come from six 4-H Clubs: Bea Bank, Kerrobert, Handel, Major, Monarch and Ridpath.

The 4-H members are joined by numerous volunteers who help make the event possible. Town volunteers, parents of 4-H members, Ag Society members, and people from the community who step in to lend a hand all contribute to the show and sale’s success.

Everyone is invited to attend and stay for the sale, where there are 42 steers offered for sale. “It’s a great way to support local producers and fill your freezer with beef,” Janice said.
