Cover Page Design:

4-H has a motto, which is "Learn to do by doing". So instead of going out to a design company to develop a poster, many members created self-made submissions as a contest.

All members that participated showed great courage, believing in themselves and willing to share their talents to support their club and our district. The winning poster was created by Brodey Thalen a member of the West Ponoka 4-H Beef Club.
