The Eramosa 4-H Beef Club recently wrapped up its 4-H year with an annual awards night at Husky Farm Equipment in Alma.
The evening started with a roast beef potluck supper for the members, families, and sponsors followed by speaker, Gwen Paddock, from Royal Bank Canada, who spoke of her 4-H experience and how it impacted her career decision.
The highlight of the evening was the awards.
Jason Schill, of Wallenstein, was awarded top member. The club had five new members who each received a new halter from the club; Ed Metzger, Jack Hattle, Mack Lougheed, Cole Hannam, and Cole Bessey.
Club members enjoyed an exciting and educating year of fun and while learning about today’s beef industry.
