. Agricultural societies newsletter. Agriculture. - 4 - SHOWCASE *92 Prepared by: Lloyd Marshman Chairman - Marketing 4-H Showcase '92 As a new and exciting year approaches, I would like to suggest some ideas and themes for agricultural societies throughout the Province. 1992 marks the 75th year of 4-H in Alberta. Since the inception of 4-H in 1917 in Olds, Alberta, 4-H has come a long way and at present involves about 4500 families throughout the province. Agricultural societies could use this as a theme for fairs and other events, possibly by using local leaders and members to set up display
. Agricultural societies newsletter. Agriculture. - 4 - SHOWCASE *92 Prepared by: Lloyd Marshman Chairman - Marketing 4-H Showcase '92 As a new and exciting year approaches, I would like to suggest some ideas and themes for agricultural societies throughout the Province. 1992 marks the 75th year of 4-H in Alberta. Since the inception of 4-H in 1917 in Olds, Alberta, 4-H has come a long way and at present involves about 4500 families throughout the province. Agricultural societies could use this as a theme for fairs and other events, possibly by using local leaders and members to set up displays and enter projects which they have completed. July 31 - August 2, 1992 at Calgary's Stampede Park, 4-H is celebrating with a huge Jamboree. We are expecting 5-6,000 past and present 4-H members, parents and leaders to participate. There will be major entertainment in the evenings (concerts and dances), a barbeque, pancake breakfast and throughout the days, livestock shows, horse shows and demonstrations involving all 30 plus 4-H projects. Perhaps some agricultural societies might like to help promote this in their communities or help send some local 4-H youth to "Showcase '92" in Calgary. There will be all types of billeting, camping and hotel accommodation available. Last, but not least, I would like to mention two items of interest that are available through your local 4-H clubs. 1: 75th Anniversary Cookbook, with over 1,000 recipes at a retail price of only $ 2: A Collector Plate, which sells for $60 and/or $48 for a frame or a combination price of $ I thank all agricultural societies for their consideration of the above and help in promoting an exciting year in 4-H. For more information on this and other opportunities regarding the 75th Anniversary and "Showcase '92", please call: Diane Maull, Chairman 4-H Anniversary Committee Box 1865 METISKOW, Alberta TOB 3A0 Phone: 857-3779 Art Griffith, Chairman 4-H showcase'92 R.
