Athena Cada

Hello, my name is Athena Cada and I am a Cloverbud. I am 6 years old and this is my first time in 4-H. This year my grandma let me get a sheep, his name is Blackerish. He won’t go to Williams Lake but I liked playing with him, feeding him and I got to wash him.

Drucilla Archie

Hello my name is Drucilla Archie, my lot number is 21. And I am a member of the Canim Valley 4-H Club. This is my second year in 4-H. My project this year is a sheep, and her name is Watson. She is a little crazy when I walk her, because she loves to run. She also doesn’t like to be pet and wear her halter. Our annual 4-H show and sale is August 6th – 12th at the Williams lake Stockyards. Our sale night is August 12th at 6 p.m.

Lexus Amut

Hi, My name is Lexus Amut of the Canim Valley 4-H Club, this year I have a market lamb named Beast- Lot #21.

You may wonder why a gentle lamb is named Beast? Well he was not so gentle in the beginning when I bought him, he acted kind of beastly.

With some hard work, patience and kindness, Beast has calmed down. He likes his sheep text, green grass and Hay daily.

He is my third market lamb that I have raised.

In the picture, Beast is waiting for his turn to have his wool sheared.

Thank you to all the volunteers who make 4-H happen.

Beast and I invite you to the annual Show & Sale, stop by our stall and say Hi.

We wish all the other clubs and members luck at the show.
