In preparation for District Livestock Judging competition next Wednesday in Valentine, 15 students took advantage of a mini judging clinic this morning. A special thanks to Jennifer Prewitt for bringing in a tough class of breeding ewes and Connor Barnes for penning up two classes of market hogs for us to not only judge but gave the jr. livestock judging contestants the opportunity to present a set of reasons to Mr. & Mrs. Nollette. Students viewed a market steer and a pen of Angus/Gelbvieh breeding bulls at Nollette's. To round out the clinic, students were asked to pick one bull from the Nollette herd and tell one good quality of the bull, and one thing they would like to see changed. Everyone enjoyed a meal at the Nollette's before returning to school!
380 dozen Krispie Kreme Doughnuts. Thanks to everyone that unloaded the truck, helped sort and put orders together! This was a huge undertaking on a game day no less!! The Basketball boys and Sophomore class appreciate your support!
