4-H is all about bringing great ideas together, and this year at the Provincial Beef Heifer Show (PBHS) in Olds, Alberta, a really great idea came together:  Alberta 4-H, along with the Olds Agricultural Society, Calgary Stampede and Olds College, created a new event that combines many areas of youth livestock showcasing. This event brought youth together from all over Western Canada with various breeds of cattle. The program’s title is “Summer Synergy”. Summer Synergy tries to bring together a variety of livestock events including Beef Heifer Show, 4-H Provincial Dairy Show, the Youth Draft Horse Show as well as various Junior Beef Breeds Associations.  All of them come to Olds to compete, learn and create new understanding of the livestock industry.

So much goes on in a 4-H year that it’s hard to keep track of it all.  From project workshops to Achievement Days, there is much to learn and see.  Much of what 4-H members in the Northwest Region do throughout their club year was showcased at this year’s Focus on 4-H, which was held July 2-5 at the Drayton Valley Omniplex.  Members from all over the area came to present, witness and learn about not just their projects, but others as well.

As the summer begins, most people are looking forward to relaxing on the beach, catching some sunshine and taking in the long hot days.  But not for 4-H Dairy project members!  Summer for them means the 64th Annual Provincial Dairy Show.  Provincial Dairy Show brings together members from all over the province to compete in a variety of dairy-related activities.  This year gave the Provincial Dairy Show a chance to be a part of Summer Synergy 2010.  Summer Synergy is a new and exciting program that brings together all areas of livestock showcasing; along with the 4-H Provincial Beef Heifer Show, the Youth Draft Horse Show and various Junior Beef Breed Associations, this year’s Dairy Show had a lot to interact with!

The summer means one thing for 4-H members throughout the province: camps.  Whether it’s regional or provincial, members are excited and ready to learn new skills, create and rekindle friendships, and make a ton of new memories. Instrumental to this camp experience are the summer program staff and counselors, and at the Leadership Through Counselling Seminar (LTCS), 4-H members learn how to make summer camping programs a memorable experience for all delegates
