Some members of our club attended district public speaking in Mannville, Tyson Rudolf placed first in Senior speeches and Camille Kassian placed second in Intermediate speeches. Good luck to Tyson who will be moving onto Regional Public Speaking on March 16, in Vegreville. We had our

field trip to The Lakeland Dairy Learning Center on March 7. We learned and saw a lot about the dairy program. We especially liked the robotic feeding and milking machines. We would like to thank Dawson, the dairy barn manager, for taking us on a tour around the barn. We would also like to thank Curtis Anderson for the very generous donation to our club for helping set up, and clean up after the Courage Canada Trail Ride. Our next meeting will be in Innisfree on April 3 at 7pm.
