As in the past, this year we will be holding 4-H Feeder Meetings in the fall for 4-H livestock feeders and their parents. This year, we will be including aspects from the Quality Counts program in our meetings.
“Quality Counts” is designed to teach young people the importance of displaying good character in carrying out livestock projects, and in every aspect of their lives. “Quality Counts” helps them learn the importance of using proper livestock management practices so that food quality and safety are preserved.
All exhibitors who plan on attending a major stock show in the spring are required to participate in the curriculum and pass a verification exam before entering the show in November.
These meetings will have information relevant to all exhibitors no matter the species they show or their experience level. The dates for this year's meetings will be:
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23RD - Making Good Decisions &Setting Goals for Livestock Projects
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 14TH - Producing a Safe Product for the Food Industry
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 28TH - Proper Animal Health Care
All meetings will be held at the Bentley 4-H Center at 7 PM.
