Caldbeck Young Farmers Club

Caldbeck Young Farmers meet every second Monday of the Month for a general meeting at Caldbeck Cricket Club at 7.30pm. These meetings are to discuss what events are coming up for the club and at county level. As well as meetings in the cricket club we go on many outings, visiting local places. Such as Carlisle Fire Station, Ten Pin Bowling, Lazer quest, Keswick Climbing wall, we have also been on visits to places like Jennings Brewery and Wetherriggs pottery.

As well as events in our local club we compete in lots of competitions at a county level. every year the county have a quiz competition that gets everyones brain working, sports competitions, public speaking competitions, Call my bluff competitions, Carrs billington challenge, brainstrust competition, and lots of others. there are competitions and things to do to suit everyones interests.

As our county is so big, it is split into two halves for young farmers, there is a southern district and a northern district. Every year each district prepares to compete in their district field day. The field day is full of competitions of every kind, from cookery to stock judging, from flower arranging to bricklaying. This day decides which club is the best club in the district. Currently Caldbeck YFC holds the trophy for the winning team on the field day. We are all looking forward to competing again this year to see if we have what it takes to keep it again.

Young Farmers is a fantastic organisation, which has something for everyone to do to suit their interests. Its away of meeting new people, visiting local places and having fun.
