We have received over 70 items for our auction. There are many nice gift cards and a good variety of things. One item is a new Mig/Flux Core Wire Welder so if you are interested in it please come and bid and enjoy the day of activities.
 
 
We bought a ewe with two baby lambs and another Oreo pig. They are all getting used to their new home and doing well. The 3 baby turkeys arrived last week and we also have a very friendly adult turkey.
Come and share the fun.
 
 
The Rocky Ridge 4-H Club came on Saturday and did a wonderful job of hoeing weeds and setting some posts for the machinery display, Things will look nice for opening on May 4th. Thank You
 
 
We got 6 buff orpington chicks on Saturday. The baby turkeys should arrive in about a week and a half and the lambs and pig at about the same time. All the babies should be here by opening day May 4.
 
 
Molly had her calf the morning of March 5. She is a little heifer and is doing fine.
 
 
We are starting to think about the spring clean up from the wind and dust, so we will be ready to open. The wind has been blowing corn leaves around from the surrounding fields.
 
 
Our fundraising letter went out in November and we have had a fairly good responce. If you would like to contribute to the museum please let us know.
 
 
The gardan is almost put to bed for the winter.
Base Camp is bringing 3 groups of children this Thursday. It is the last big group that is scheduled for this season.
Things do not slow down much though, as we need to get our fundraising letter mailed soon, and begin working on improvements for next season.

We had to sale the sheep this week. The ram was living up to his name and raming into the shed.

The little beef steer got his leg hurt, so he is taking it easy and slowly getting better.
