A Hunting We Did Go! Thanks for starting your week with me right here on Ranch Raised!

I know some of you are still in holiday mode enjoying an extended weekend break! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend with your family and friends!

I really need to bring a gratitude post back around! You know I love showering our small town volunteers with the love and appreciation they deserve! I think that the Easter season is a time when we see the best in our local organizations and volunteers. 

On Friday night my teens took part in a glow in the dark Easter egg hunt at a local park. It may have been cold and spitting snow but they had a blast! There were some great prizes and even gift cards to the local ice cream shop, which they promptly used! Hey they are teenagers, ice cream is acceptable in any weather, especially when it is free!

On Saturday, I took the younger kids to town to take part in two Easter egg hunts sponsored by local organizations. Again, my kids not only had a blast, but they walked away with so many sweet treats and prizes.

None of this would happen with out the dedication and planning of lots of volunteers and sponsors to pay for the goodies! From my family and everyone who part took in local activities this weekend we extended a sincere thank you for making these events and our communities GREAT!

And if you are ever looking for an excuse to get out of the house and make others smile, these organizations are always welcoming more volunteers to add to their small but mighty groups!

About Karina Jones 475 Articles
Karina ranches with her husband, Marty, and 3 daughters near Broken Bow, NE. She grew up in western NE, with roots also in southwest SD. The cattle industry and raising kids is her passion. Watching the cattle industry go the path that it has gone, she could no longer sit quietly at home checking cows, fixing fence, and doing all the everyday tasks wondering when some else was going to make it all better. As she became more active and outspoken on industry issues, she was asked to join the R-CALF USA staff in September 2020 as the Checkoff Petition Campaign manager. That position transcended into her current role as full time Field Director for R-CALF USA. You can hear her almost every Friday on Your Ag Network’s Hot Barn Report that is broadcast on 60 radio stations with coverage in 9 states, where she deep dives into cattle industry issues and highlights R-CALF’s work on industry reforms. Listen to Ranch Raised on a Your Ag Network hometown station or www.youragnetwork.com where she talks about her daily life on the ranch. Cattle producers are her people. She will meet you at the county fair, at the sale barn, or anywhere the dusty trail leads.
