Quinten Albrecht Reporter – Holden 4-H Beef Club On Sunday, October 20 the Holden 4-H Beef Club held their annual weighin for their project animals. Everyone met at the Albrecht farm at 10:30 a.m. Steers were weighed, received Ivomec

and 8-way vaccine. Nicole Gunderson helped members to give the vaccine to their animals. The animals also received their 4-H tag and if members wanted to implant their steers, Rob Roulston helped them do so. Any member who had already chosen a heifer project

could bring their heifer to be weighed, vaccinated and receive Ivomec as well. Members have until December 1st to choose their heifer projects. When weigh-in was complete we had lunch in the barn. Every family brought some food. 4-H has the best food! After

lunch our club went to help a neighbor to pick 500 square straw bales. It was hard to believe that we accomplished this task in one and a half hours! Many hands make for less work. We had an amazing time! It was a great day.
