The 4-H program guides our members to select quality livestock and maintain consistent nutri on, health and daily care. There is a need to start with a good animal and maximize its poten al so then you are le with quality Canadian beef for the consumer. The 4-H Beef project and its many supporters have helped send thousands of our youth away to universi es, colleges and trade schools. They have returned to become our business leaders, teachers, caregivers, farmers, mechanics, welders and the list goes on. One thing for sure, when you purchase a 4-H steer, you are not just inves ng in a child’s future, but also in the future of this community.

Our Beef Members will be eager to show and discuss with you, in person, all the hard work and effort that goes into raising and preparing their Beef Projects for a live show and sale.

The members have developed a lot of new skills by “Learning to Do by Doing” since our last live show and sale 3 years ago. They will be happy to answer any of your ques ons when they see you in person. This catalogue presents a glimpse of what you will see at the live show and sale. It gives you a chance to learn about each member and their Projects this year.
