M-O Livestock Booster Club Holds Annual Event

On Saturday, January 14, the Mulhall-Orlando Livestock Booster Club held their annual pork chop dinner and auction at the Mulhall Elementary Gymnasium. This event is held in order to raise money to support local livestock exhibitors at the Logan County Premium Sale in February.

The doors opened at 5 p.m. for dinner, with a choice of dinein or curbside pick-up. The meal featured pork chops served with green beans, a bread role, a side salad, and your choice of drink and dessert.

Once everyone’s bellies were full, the auction began. Numerous items, donated by local businesses and 4-H and FFA members, were sold to the highest bidder. These items included a hay feeder, a Chevrolet fire pit, tools, jewelry, toys, and even prairie grass round bales. Sponsorships for the local livestock show were up for bid as well. The night ended with the raffles of a John Deere Gator, a pellet grill, and a Yeti cooler.

Mulhall-Orlando 4-H and FFA livestock exhibitors spent the night helping carry plates for all the guests during the dinner, and they assisted in the auction. The exhibitors had a great time helping out and visiting with numerous members of the community.
