Tuesday, December 20
|
On behalf of the Union, I want to thank those members of the Riverview family that donated stock and time to this project.
• James Graham, Coolac • Lachie Graham, Harden • Paul Roche, Batlow • Julie Thompson, Cootamundra • Mark Mason, Mt Lambie. The School Farm Manager David Dodds, kindly gave us an update on the progress "First half of season has gone really well-all steers are quiet easy to halter with some leading well even at this early stage. Weight gain equally impressive. We have a young but enthusiastic group of boys, including 3 from Sydney, which is terrific- what a marvellous program for an inner City school! Term 1,2023 we will concentrate on "finishing" for the Show season. WEIGHTS Riverview 2 ( Roach) 474kgs Riverview 3. (Brown). 241kgs Riverview 6.
