Further to my last post...

It has been brought to our attention that some individuals, who have been identified, were playing with fire during the finals. Our vice-president, Jason Whitfield, will be reaching out to all of these individuals and their parents. Once he has been in contact with everyone we will work on a resolution. This will involve the Rimbey Ag, CARA & the contestants/parents involved. This will not be dropped until completely dealt with.

**ATTENTION ALL CONTESTANTS**

I was asked by the Rimbey Ag board to share a message.

The wash bay and out back of the Ag building was left a disgusting mess. It was said to me that it will likely take their person that does clean up at least an hour to deal with it. This is NOT acceptable. Leaving garbage, etc. ANYWHERE is extremely irresponsible. Find a garbage can or take it with you. Everyone who competes is old enough to know better. If we do not clean up after ourselves, they are eventually going to stop renting this amazing facility to us.

This is not the first time that a post regarding contestants cleaning after themselves has had to be made.

Going forward, I trust that we are going to do better so it never has to be brought up again.

Leftovers from the weekend. They are at the Ag building.
