Branch County Livestock Camp








Kalamazoo 4H’ers had an opportunity to attend Branch County livestock camp this week. Over 200 kids, chaperones, and presenters attended from 22 Michigan Counties.

Fair subjects were covered in great depth over the three day camp. The projects included goats, poultry, swine, rabbits, beef steer, feeder calf, horses, sweepstakes, and dogs.

For added fun, on Monday attendees could choose from swimming, bowling, or gym (basketball or volleyball).

On Tuesday there was an awards ceremony; with Pizza for dinner. For dessert, ice cream sundaes were donated by the United Dairy Industry of Michigan.

Be sure to sign up next year so you don’t miss the wonderful opportunity to learn from experts in each field, to have a super-fun time, and enjoy some very tasty meals.

For the Kids who attended; what was your favorite part?
