4-H & FFA beef project members are reminded of the Market Beef Weigh-In to be held Saturday, December 9, 8 a.m. – 10:30 a.m. at the Kalona Sale Barn. The cost is $3 per ear tag for all beef.  Retinal scanning will be done for those nominating for the State Fair with an $8 per head fee. Bring money to pay all fees on December 9. To prepare ahead of time, 4-H families can look over the November Beef 4-H Newsletter. Families will want to have the pre-scale form printed and prepared for weigh-in. Contact the Washington County Extension Office as soon as possible if families will be attending from a neighboring county 4-H program or if families must attend another weigh-in location due to scheduling conflicts. Pre-approval is necessary. For more information about 4-H or the Market Beef project or weigh-in, please contact the Washington County Extension Office at 319-653-4811. Volunteers are always welcome, contact the Extension Office for details.
