Fourteen-year-old Karen Stutzman, Rl, Kutztown, dominated the sheep show at the Reading Fair. Karen exhibited the grand and reserve grand cham pion market lambs. She also captured the ribbons for the grand champion pen of lambs. Demonstrating that she really knew what she was doing, Karen also took the grand champion showman honors in the sheep fitting and showing competition. She was also named reserve champion fitter. Karen has been in the 4-H sheep club for three years and says this is the first year that she has done this well. “I walk them every day,” she says about her two winners, which are the only sheep she has. “It gives them muscle,” she adds. The Stutzman sheep were featured at the annual Berks County 4-fJ.Market Lamb Sale held the final day of the fair, Saturday, Sept. 29th. The 120-pound cham pion brought $6.10 per pound on the bid from Weaver’s Farm Market, Sinking Spring. The reserve champion sold for $3.45 per pound to the Crystal Springs Restaurant, Sinking Spring. “I’m gonna miss them,” Karen commented after the sale. But the annual sale, which provides the 4- H’ers with money for their year long efforts, gave Karen incentive for next year. “Besides,” she adds, “I was thinking of buying a computer.” The market lamb sale included 49 head of the 4-H project sheep. Although the price for the grand champion was down from the $7.50 that the champion brought last year, the sale average for this year was $.15 higher than 1983 at $1.29 per pound. “The kids were quite pleased,” commented the sale clerk.
