Results: Central Minnesota Cattlemen's Association Riverboat 4-H/FFA Beef Show

Our 2010 show season began with the Central Minnesota Cattlemen's Association Riverboat 4-H/FFA Beef Show in Aitkin, MN. The 4-Hers really like this one-day show, mainly because it's quick. We've had mixed results over the years, being on both the top and bottom of classes. It's a nice show to bring cattle to for their first time, and there's a hoof-trimmer on site to take care of the show calves feet (if need be).

We took three animals to the show for competition. Our two-year-old cow-calf pair, Angel (0806), and her heifer calf, 1001 placed first in their class of three (two Red Angus cow-calf pairs and one Angus cow-calf pair). Our yearling heifer, 0914, won her class of seven. Courtney Johnson was called back for showmanship, too!

A good day! Courtney treated Jack and Marcy to Dairy Queen on the way home.
