Help Jefferson County's
youth showcase the skills they have learned with your participation as a bidder
in this year's Jeffco Junior Livestock Sale!
Why do we need your support in this sale?
- To create an educational opportunity for
4-H youth, parents and the public.
- To provide financial incentives to 4-H
youth involved in market animal projects
- To allow for management experience for 4-H
youth in decision making, teamwork, and advertising and public relations
skills.
- To help 4-H members to learn and practice
life skills
The sale will be run as a Premium Sale, taking
the focus off purchasing the animal and putting it towards the educational
efforts of the youth and all the hard work involved in the project. As a
bidder, you will bid on the premium rather the animal, showing direct support of
the youth's efforts. As a winning bidder, you also have the first option
to purchase the meat animal at the prearranged market value.
Please join us Friday, August 7, 2009 for the 4-H livestock shows beginning at
8:00 a.m.; and Saturday, August 8 at 4:30 p.m. for the pre-sale barbecue, and at
6:00 p.m. for the Sale.
If you have any questions, please contact Marian
Phillips at (303) 838-7443 or the Jefferson County 4-H office at (303) 271-6620.
Thank you very much for your support. |
