Gord Bamford may soon be coming to the area thanks to the efforts of the Drumheller District 4-H and area residents. The Drumheller 4-H has taken the lead as of Monday in the “Why 4-H is Great Contest.”
However, there is a week left to go and anything could happen.
As of Monday evening, the Drumheller 4-H club had the most number of “likes” with 398. In a close second was Lakedell Lighthorse 4-H with 379. The Colchester Crusaders 4-H was in a distant third.
The winner of the contest, which wraps up on Friday, August 31, will host a concert by Gord Bamford on November 15.
Each finalist submitted a video to the “Why 4-H is Great” Facebook page. The public determines the winner by "liking" their favourite. The winner is determined by the most Facebook “likes” for their video post. The winner will be announced live at the 2012 Summer Send Off Festival in Ponoka.
The Drumheller District 4-H is asking for help to bring Gord Bamford here. Residents are encourage to go the “Why 4-H is Great” Facebook page and “like” their video.
