4-H ALBERTA BEEF HEIFER SHOW
For 43 years the 4-H Alberta Beef Heifer
Show has provided 4-H members the
opportunity to showcase their beef female
project, hone their skills and gain further
knowledge of trends in the beef industry, all
within an experiential environment designed
for their learning and development. Through
participation in the Beef Heifer Show, you will
develop your passion for the beef industry,
share your vision with other youth and
adults, and have tons of fun.
Furthermore, you will sharpen your skills in
showmanship, judging, grooming and beef
knowledge – plus show off your
prized project animal in a series of
conformation classes.
Don’t have a female project but still want to
see what all the hype is about? No problem!
Come and experience firsthand by helping
out fellow 4-H’ers and take part in all the
non-animal opportunities.

4-H ALBERTA SHEEP SHOW
The 4-H Alberta Sheep show is celebrating
its 10th year in 2020!!!
This always-popular show is a reflection
of the thriving Alberta sheep industry
and provides a tremendous educational
opportunity at the provincial level for 4-H
members to broaden their knowledge of
showing, trimming, and judging sheep, as
well as the general sheep industry.
In addition, the 4-H Alberta Sheep Show
is great place to learn best practices and
connect with like-minded youth. In other
words, you will be meeting a lot of
great people!
So if you want to: sharpen your skill base in
an industry focused event; get involved at
the next level and network; and expand your
knowledge base beyond the farm gate then
this is an opportunity you do not want
to miss.
Don’t have a breeding animal? No problem!
Any member registered in the sheep project,
with any level of experience, can attend the
4-H Alberta Sheep Show without an animal.
