We have a lot going on here at Malakoff Young Farmers. This week marks the beginning of Houston Livestock Show. Poor Mr. Hancock will be on the road for the next two and half weeks nonstop. He will take one group down, return for another group to go down, bring a group back, take down another group, return for yet another group, and then return home with the last group. So here is to safe travels for Mr. Hancock and we are looking forward to a great show. Good luck to all our exhibitors also! Once we return from Houston it is on to prepare for Henderson County Livestock Show, April 9 14, 2012. Looking forward to a great show then also. Mr. Hancock will have his hands overflowing this year with 9 head of heifer, 6 head of steers, 3 pens of commercial heifers, 4 goats, 2 lambs, and 29 pigs. Not to mention all the horse show entries, project show entries, and the 5 young ladies in the Princess and Queen contest. Boy are we growing!
