Keeny, son of Mr. and Mrs. Dean Keeny, Red Lion R 3, wrapped up his 4-H career with this roundup show and sale. When it was all over, his 110-pound purebred Suffolk market lamb heavyweight wore the purple rosette at the top of the champion lineup. “It feels good,” grinned the 19- year-old retiring 4-H’er. “It’s been a long time coming.” His lamb presentation to the standing-room-only crowed of bidders and supporters opened the annual roundup sale to spirited bidding. Final price, a record $2.90 per pound, came from frequent 4-H sale supporter Ralph Thomas, of Ralph E. Thomas Meats, Shrewsbury. Another perennial 4-H supporter, Willie “the Butcher” Kreider, was winning bidder of the reserve champion lamb, a Dorset exhibited by Melissa Trostle. The 17-year-old shepherdess is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Trostle, Red Lion R 2. Travis Renfro, Seven Valleys, earned the lightweight class champion honors, with his 85- pound entry that sold to Willie the Butcher for an 85-cent price. His second appearance, with the 90- pound reserve champion mediumweight, brought the Seven Valleys youngster a 75-cent win ning bid from Leroy Shearer. A back-to-back appearance took East Berlin 4-H’er Tina Shaffer through the ring with her cham pion mediumweight and reserve lightweight entries. The 95-pound champion sold for 80 cents per pound to Sam Meisenhelter, while John Yohn purchased smaller winner, at 85 pounds, with a 90 cent bid. Miller Charolais took home the reserve champ light heavyweight, exhibited by John Myers, Dallastown. Weighing in at an even 100 pounds, the lamb earned Myers $82.50. Sonja Shearer, Abbottstown, earned a $1.20 per pound price for her 110-pound reserve champion heavyweight. Jerry Sterner was the winning buyer. A total of 46 lambs sold during the roundup auction, averaging $99.70 per cwt. and setting a record high average for the combined county sale event.
