Dear Fellow Club Calf Producer,

Well. Another State Fair will be upon us soon. I am writing this letter to save some time and effort at and after the fair. Again this year, we will try to band our money efforts together for the State Fair Auction. I hope you will support us again this year with a donation to the IOWA STATE FAIR SALE OF CHAMPIONS.
We have been able to support the Grand Champion Steer, the Reserve Champion Steer and the two Heifer champions. The last four years, we have been able to take meat from one of these cattle and have had it processed at ISU Meat Lab. The meat is then used for our winter drawing. The money we raise from this is used for the Breed Champions and Reserves. We donate $250 to each breed Champion and $125 to each Reserve Champion as long as 5 head are exhibited. We have challenged each Purebred Breed to match our funds, with several now doing this. In time we hope to get all to work with us. This past year, we purchased enough hamburger patties for the noon feed. With the help of Kent Feeds and IJBBA, we were able to have a free noon lunch for the exhibitors and parents. We think this is a great gesture for the 4-H kids and parents in Iowa. The committee and several Breed associations would like us to do the same for the purebred breed heifers. We presently haven't been able to raise enough funds to help the heifer side.
I am enclosing an invoice for the same amount of money that you donated last year. If you would please return your donation in the self addressed envelope ASAP, we would appreciate it. If you could please, reply by August 8th. IF YOU NEED TO POST DATE THE CHECK TILL SEPTEMBER 10th, it would be OK, as we will need to have the funds in by then so they can pay the kids. Please get your check to us by September 10th. THIS YEAR IF WE DON'T HAVE THE MONEY OR A POSTDATED CHECK IT WILL BE USED IN NEXT YEARS PROGRAM. I WANT TO HAVE THE FUNDS IN HAND WHEN THEY CALL FOR MONEY TO PAY THE KIDS.
Again this year, the IFAA will award a $1000 scholarship on behalf of the Midwest Club Calf Producers. This comes from the deduction of exhibitors' sale expenses. The IFAA awards some $160,000 in scholarships to 4-H and FFA exhibitors prior to the sale each year. If you have a student going to college, I would urge you to apply for these scholarships.
If you could increase your donation to the sale, it would be greatly appreciated, and many will benefit.
Remember to please conact me at 319-480-0638 (cell) or 319-462-3666 (home) or Chuck Sojka at 319-648-2443 (home) or 319-221-4302 (cell) or Alan Kohlaus at 515-379-2358 (home) or 515-341-2435 (cell). Thank you in advance for all of your support and contributions.

Sincerely,
