Sometimes our self-esteem takes a beating. As 水果视频ns we are born with a strong work ethic and a 鈥済et it done鈥 attitude, but we鈥檙e not strong self-promoters. We go about our business, always do our best to help friends and neighbours in need, and we don鈥檛 think a whole lot about ourselves 鈥 as long as there鈥檚 a roof over our head, food on the table and our loved ones are in good health. We鈥檙e proud (but not boastful) of our families and communities and are always ready to share with people who we are and where our roots are planted. But when our identity is compromised by the actions of others 鈥 particularly government 鈥 creating uncertainty of who we are and where we stand, that is deeply hurtful. I can鈥檛 think of a time in recent memory where that was more apparent than during the process of municipal amalgamation.

They will still continue locally and as far as provincial command, so there won鈥檛 be any major disruption at the local branch level.

On Monday, Feb. 2, the Neepawa and Area 4-H Beef Club held their Communication evening, and what an event it was! All 4-H members should be very proud of the job they did. It takes a lot of work to come up with a topic, write your thoughts out, and then present it to not only judges but a room full of friends, parents, and family members. Each member continues to prove the club moto, 鈥淟earn to do by doing鈥.
