The East Tiffin Aggies held their second meeting of 2023 on February 9 at 6 p.m. in the West Union High School Round Room. The club was reminded of a decision to pay a $25 assessment fee rather than selling candy bars. All fees are due no later than Feb. 15.
The club has also decided to donate a trophy to the Junior Fair livestock shows. The club will be using the same shirt design as the previous year. New members or returning members or parents who plan on purchasing a shirt can call Vicki Mason at (513) 608-7333. Members who have purchased books for a fair or pre-judging project will receive them at the March meeting. Members who are new to livestock or are taking a new species will need to fill out the livestock book their first year. Exhibitors who have taken a livestock project in the past will need to fill out a livestock supplement packet.
