Hi! My name is Katie Anderson. I am 9 years old and this is my first year as a Junior member. I have a heifer project this year and her name is Oreo, because she is black and white. Oreo is an Angus/Simmental cross who was born on February 26, 2023. She eats barley, chop, hay and has a salt block. She also has 2 other calves in her pen - my stall mate Sunny, and my bottle calf from last year, Buster. Oreo loves to get scratches on her ears, back, and head. She can be a bit stubborn to lead, but we are working on that. Oreo likes to lick my hand when she is relaxed. I’m excited to show Oreo to you on show day!

Hi, My name is Boe Myshaniuk. I am 17 years old and this is my second year in 4-H. This is my steer Rod. I named him this because my steer is red and the Ukranian word for red is “Roid”, but i figured Rod was easier to pronounce. I really enjoy spending time with him and working with him. I have learned a lot over the past 2 years of 4-H and believe it is a great opportunity for anyone who gets the chance to do it. Thank you to Love’s Custom Meats for buying my steer last year and for supporting 4-H!
My name is Olivia Saruk and this is Butters! Although this is my sixth year in 4-H, this is only my second year doing a market beef project in the Innisfree-Minburn 4-H Beef Club. Butters is a happy Simmental Angus cross with a stuck-up personality. I selected him because of his sturdy stance and balanced body. He has finished well on his diet of show rations and hay and is excited to see you all at our show! I would like to thank fellow 4-H member Rylan Jackson for allowing me to borrow is steer project for showmanship and grooming last year; due to my steer, Larry, passing away just a week before Achievement Day.

Hi! My name is Chloe. This is my second year in 4-H and I am a Cleaver. My project this year is a Simmental heifer named Emily. She is a nice calf that likes scratches. I enjoy brushing her and leading her around when she cooperates. Sometimes she fights against the halter but I love her anyways! The thing I like most about her is that she is black, and she is a girl. My favorite part about 4-H is spending time with my calf. Thank you to everyone for supporting 4-H!
