The Hussar 4-H Beef Club Show and Sale was another great success with incredible results and some fine Alberta Beef in the auction ring. The Show and Sale was on Tuesday, May 30, and they saw 14 animals shown and sold including a charity calf raised to support the Thew family; Mitchell Thew was diagnosed in March with liver failure and was fortunate enough to have the procedure, though he still faces a long recovery. The fundraising steer was auctioned off three times and in total raised $29,480 for the family.
The Grand Champion was a 1,200-pound Charolais raised by Lylah Hoff, and it was sold to Dallas Dundas and Shane Noble of Suede Energy.
The Reserve Champion was a 1,126-pound Charolais raised by Grady Hoff and was sold to Sunrise Auto Sales for $6.50 per pound. Robert Hoff did the bidding.
