The kids from the Big Woody 4H Beef Club have worked hard all winter on their projects and books.

I have been in 4H for 6 years, this is my steer – Coleminer, I named him after my Stamps Billet because he likes to eat! Coleminer is a Black Angus that we raised on our farm.

He was pasture raised with his mom, and then weaned in the fall.

He spent the winter eating and getting brushed, his favorite place to be scratched is at his tail head. I also play hockey, baseball and I am in grade 8 French Immersion. I plan to donate 10% of my profits from the sale of Coleminer to Community Foundation of Swan Valley, my brother and I are working towards having a fund there that we can direct towards you in Agriculture.

Hi, I am a grade 6 French Immersion student, I also play hockey, ball, soccer and HS rodeo.

My steer is named after the Stamps Captain, Townee because he was smaller when we weaned him but feisty!


Townee really enjoys his neck being scratched and loves his feed we get from the Coop! I plan to donate 10% of the profits of the sale of my steer to the Community Foundation of Swan Valley. Please consider buying Townee for your freezer, he was raised with love and will taste great.

I am a Grade 7 student at the Ecole Swan River South School.

My steer, “Shaggy” is a Black Mixed Breed and has been pretty easy to look after.



I plan on donating 10% of the proceeds from the sale of my steer to Wellman Lake United Church Camp Shower/Bathroom project.
