GENE's CORNER

GENE’S CORNER

There are a lot of activities in March, so be sure to check the 4-H Calendar! Shooting Sports -

One important event is a meeting for everyone enrolled or interested in Shooting Sports. The meeting will be on March 18th immediately following the 6:00pm County Council meeting. Mike Trujillo, Marcus Trujillo, and I recently attended shooting sports certification. We are all certified in rifle, pistol and shotgun. We’re looking forward to building a strong 4-H shooting sports program in Torrance County. Be sure to attend if interested.

Livestock Judging -
Don’t forget about 4-H livestock judging practice. Check the calendar for dates and times.

County Fair -
Steer and Heifer tag-in day for County and State Fair will be March 28th at the county fairgrounds from 5:00-8:00pm. If you plan to show at either fair, you must attend this tag day. Call the office if you have any questions.

We have received several questions about the fair this year. We are happy to answer questions that we can, any parents and 4-H members with questions or concerns about the Torrance County Fair are encouraged to attend the fairboard meetings on the sec-ond Tuesday of each month at 6:00pm in the County Courthouse.

4H Enrollment Deadline -

You have until April 1st to enroll in 4-H and add or drop projects. If you know of anyone interested in being a 4-H member, please encourage them to call the office!

Have a great month!

Gene
