Every year farm credit sponsers a calf raffle for 4-H and ffa clubs to raise money for their club. The kids sell the tickets for $1 ea and the club keeps all the money. Farm credit buys a calf (around 500 lbs) for the prize. They called and said I won and pick it up today! |

It is so fun being able to share with others who understand the thrill of this. Some of my city friends looked at me like I was crazy. They didnt get it. |

How fun! I entered to win a Belted Galloway when the magazine Grit was giving one away but alas, I didn't win it. Enjoy your prize!
