West Ponoka Beef Club

Hello, My name is Jake Sheppard and I have been a member of the West Ponoka 4-H beef club for 10 years and this is my last year in 4-H. This year I have my 9th steer project, Rocket who is a home raised Simmental Angus Cross steer. I also have my 6th heifer project, Roxy and hopefully I will also have a cow calf project with my heifer from last year, Wilma. I am a Grade 12 student at Ponoka Secondary Campus and am looking forward to what the future holds when I’m done school. Thank you to Eagle Builders for purchasing my steer last year! And to all my buyers over the years who’ve helped support me and our 4-H club.

Hi, my name is Emily Cline. I am 16 years old and in grade eleven. This is my 8th year in the West Ponoka Beef 4-H Club. This year I am raising two steers. My market steer is Leroy and my carcass steer is Phil, he would be great to “Phil” your freezer! I also have a heifer named Annie. Along with Beef 4-H, I am also in the Silver Valley 4-H Riders with my horse Lincoln.

I would like to thank Family Meats for buying my steer last year. I look forward to seeing you this year at our show and sale!

Hi my name is Kaleb Thalen and I’m 15 years old and this is my 5th year in 4-H. This year I have a Limo X steer named Roberto. He has been fun to work with and I can’t wait to show him on May 9.

Thanks to Gerts Wheels for purchasing my calf last year.
