SOUTH MALAHAT 4-H AUCTION
Labour Day Monday, you have the opportunity to feed family, friends or customers with some choice cuts of meat, while supporting one of the largest rural youth organizations in existence: 4-H. The South Malahat 4-H Auction includes steers, hogs and lambs raised by the South Malahat District 4-H members. For 2012 we had the addition of rabbits and we hope to be able to offer rabbits and poultry for 2013. The auction will be held September 2, 2013 at 2:30 p.m. in the beef show ring.
The lambs, steers and hogs will be sold by the pound live weight. (e.g.- 1100 lb steer for $2.00 per lb= $2200 your cost). Your purchase will be delivered for processing at our cost. The kill charge as set by the processing plant, transportation of the carcass to the butcher and cutting and wrapping of the meat is payable by you, the purchaser. You will get to select your specific cutting instructions to the butcher. The processing plants that the animals will be sent to are all government certified. With your investment in 4-H you will be getting the best of the best in meat quality and pride.
After the 4-H sale, your picture will be taken with the animal you have purchased. You will receive a copy of this picture along with a personal recognition for your contribution from the members. As well, a group thank-you ad will be sent to local papers, advertising your support of the program and its' members. If you are interested in attending the auction or just getting more information, call us at 250-652-1682 to pre-register and we'll send out an information package, click here to fill out form or place a reserve bid on a 4-H animal click here.
