CHAMBERSBURG - Franklin
County Holstein Club’s Annual
Meeting and Banquet was held
recently on a blustery, snowy,
bitter Tuesday evening at Kauff
man Center. Regardless ot the
weather, the awards presented to
the many members brought back
warm memories of last summer’s
fairs, and state shows.
The 1981 Franklin County Fair
was the first event mentioned that
brought back warm thoughts,
however, for James and Nina
Burdette they had other fond
memories of the Fair.
The Burdettes won the Grand
Championship title at the fair with
Windy Knoll View Kit Jacquelyn.
The Holstein Club presented a
plaque to the couple for their
Grand Champion animal; this is an
annual presentation.
Lockaway Farms received the
plaque for their Reserve Grand
Champion Lockaway Sheila.
Along with the champion
awards, several Franklin County
dairymen own outstanding cattle
