Thank you for coming to the auction and supporting our 4-Her’s.

4-H has been an integral part of Alberta communities since 1917, with deep-rooted history and tradition that stems back to the efforts of individuals that formed the very first club for boys and girls in our province.

Irricana 4-H has been in the Kathyrn, Keoma, Irricana area for the last 68 years!

2020 will go down in history as one of the most challenging years to date. With 4-H Achievement Days, 4-H on Parade and many more in person events being cancelled to due to COVID-19.

Members have adjusted well to a the challenges facing them to finish off their 4-H year. From zooming meetings to putting together a “Virtual” Achievement Day…..followed by an on line sale.

Please consider your continued support by bidding on any of our members lamb projects that they have worked so hard this year with feeding,haltering, and grooming, in every effort of normalcy to their lives right now.

Members build life long skills with a hands-on approach. Helping them to grow confidence, independence, resilience, and compassion.

Experiences where they learn by doing, grow from failure, express their ideas and use their influence to drive positive outcomes.

Raising their lambs is a small portion of what these members learn from weaned to finished. Daily chores include feeding, grooming, and haltering them. And don't forget daily record keeping.
