Fair And Meetings

Hi guys, 

As of right now I'm sitting at O'neil farm with big Jim because we have a meeting and NOBODY is here. You only have two meetings left until fair. You need to be at both of these meetings if you actually plan to take your calf to the fair. There's been at least twelve meetings since lease forms were signed, but it seems to be the same five or six kids at every meeting. Boss isn't happy with the lack of effort being put into the calves that he so generously allowed each of you to lease, it would be nice if you actually showed some interest in your calf. If you show up thursday for the first time all summer, don't expect your calf to be the first on the trailer. Only a select group have washed their calves and nobody has clipped. Monday the meeting will be AT ONEILS FROM 2-4. I'm asking Chris to be around to help that day, as everyone should wash that day and clip on Tuesday. By not showing up to meetings your only hurting yourselves. I can't force you to be here and work with your calfs but Its going to show in the ring if you haven't worked with your animal, and a good judge will tell you that. Twelve cows have been leased from Mr. O'Neil and I hope that all twelve can be shown next week. 

On that note, at the Monday meeting it would be nice if everyone (including kids not leasing) could show up as we will be cleaning and organizing the show box and halters. If you need a show halter/ barn halter /rope halter etc I have plenty to loan- just text me preferably before Monday at 339-793-3799 and I can bring whatever you need. 

Saturday August 11th our meeting will be at the fairgrounds from 9-12 for cleanup day. Bring brooms rakes shovels etc. after there will be lunch and a Safety Meeting worth achievement points! 

If you are showing a cow and are not at the meetings Monday and Tuesday without a valid reason told to me susan or big jim before the meetings- it will be assumed you have no interest in showing this season.  
Thanks, Jaime
