Vegreville 4-H Beef Club Achievement Day Rosanne Fortier News Correspondent Members of Vegreville 4-H Beef Club learned the benefit of hard work and taking care of their animals when they won trophies and sold their female cows and steers at Vegreville 4-H Beef Club Achievement Day (Show and Sale) at Vegreville Exhibition Grounds on May 27. The Master of Ceremonies was Nicholas Cheremshynski. This Show and Sale began with a weigh-in which was followed by lunch. In the early afternoon, the judging began with female classes, market steer classes, and grooming and showmanship. After this, there was a supper and Market Steer Championship Class Awards Presentation which was followed by the sale. Harold Albrecht is the Club Leader for the 4-H Beef Club. Jennifer Cheremshynski, Denise Warawa, Carl Ogrodnick, and Cody Weleschuk are
assistant leaders. Assistant Leader, Jennifer Cheremshynski said 4-H members gain a lot of leadership, cooperation, and they learn how to work together from participating in this Show and Sale. Also, they learn how to groom and how to show animals, as well as, how to work with different types of animals that have different personalities. They learn how to raise animals and how to market them because they asked buyers to come to the sale to purchase their steers. So, it is a good learning experience overall for the members. The winners for the show were Grand Champion - Hannah Albrecht, Reserve Grand champion Gabrielle Cheremshynski, Supreme Females Hannah Albrecht, Reserve supreme femaleGabrielle Cheremshynsk, Champion heifer Gabrielle Cheremshynski, Reserve champion heifer - Hannah Albrecht, Champion Cow /calf - Hannah Albrecht, Reserve cow/calf - Gabrielle
