On behalf of myself and the Rangeland members we would like to give a huge thank you to the judges that came out this cold day and gave their time and skill. We would also like to thank the guests who came out to support, and parents who prepared a wonderful meal followed by yummy treats.
Have a great week. We hope it’s warmer than last week.
