Hussar Show and Sale coming Sunday

20170528 Munson Field Fire TJH 011

    Nothing tastes better than a 4-H raised steak, and one of the best chances to get one is this Sunday at the Hussar Arena.
The annual Hussar 4-H Show and Sale is this Sunday, May 27. There will be 49 4-H raised cattle on the block, plus a charity calf.
    Sale Association President Janet Yule says the Hussar 4-H Beef Club has been growing in numbers and strength. A few years ago it amalgamated with Gleichen and Cluny clubs. Now it has memberships from all over.
    “We have members from Gem to Carbon,” said Yule “It has been a long-standing club. We have kept the same mandate and have grown steadily.”
    She adds there are many strong families who help to keep the club strong.
    She says this year they are wanting to make it an enjoyable day for the membership and the buyers. The show starts at 10 a.m. and the auction will start immediately after the awards are presented. For buyers who aren’t able to make the entire show, she suggests they are at the Hussar Arena by 2-2:30 p.m. to be sure not to miss the auction.
    Darren Rebalkin is back in the auctioneer’s seat and will work to make sure top dollar is bid.
    After the sale, Yule said participants and buyers are invited to attend a roast beef dinner. Buyers and a guest will be provided for, and others can enjoy the meal and buy tickets at the door.
