May Long Weekend 2012


Rebecca and I kept ourselves busy this weekend attending three events. The Balzac Beef 4-H Club Steer and Heifer Show, the High River Little Britches Parade and Rodeo, and the Carstairs District 4-H Steer Show and Sale. We handed out ribbons and awards at both 4-H events. It was great getting to know the future leaders of our agricultural industry. 4-H it such a great way to give our youth the skills to be successful, and the appreciation of what our agriculture industry has to offer. Not to mention all the great country style meals you get to eat! Thank you so much to Balzac Beef and the Carstairs 4-H Steer Show for inviting us to sit down and have some delicious meals! I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Heather Mills and the High River Little Britches Rodeo for hosting us on Victoria day. We had a great time in the Parade and had the pleasure of meeting the very first High River Little Britches Rodeo Queen, Emily Dunham. We participated in the Grande Entry at the rodeo and helped out with the mutton bustin, and buckle presentations. It was an absolute blast! It is hard to grasp that our year will be coming to an end in less than six weeks!
