their two sons, Dustin and Bran
don. They currently milk 65 cows

which he has developed.
The herd’s BAA from the latest
classification is 105.5%. The herd

average of 19,000 pounds of milk
and 725 pounds of fat.
In addition to managing his
herd, Gary is very active both in
local and state farm organizations.

Senior Breeder Award
Roger and Peggy Myers took
over the family farm m 1953, near
Westminster, and purchased his
first registered Holstcms in 1955.
His venture into registered Hols
teins became a joint venture with
his sons in support and encourage
ment of their interest in registered
Holsteins.
Extensive use of Elevation rep-
Lancaster Fanning, Saturday, September 22,1990-A47
resented a turning point for the
herd, with, at one lime, more than
a third of the milking herd being
sired by Elevation.
The best known daughter, Del-
Myr Elevation Donna, was best
bred and owned at the 1977 East
ern National Show. Another high
light in the show ring for Del-Myr
Farm was being named premier
breeder and exhibitor at the 1982
Maryland State Fair.
From the beginnings of a
10,000 pound herd average in
1953, the herd has neared the
22,000-pound mark and was the
first herd in Carroll County tc
attain 800 pounds of fat. Five
Progressive Breeders Registry
Awards are representative of the
Del-Myr herd’s consistently high
production and BAA of 106.
Roger has served as president
of the Carroll County Holstein
Club, as a director on the state
Holstein Board, and as a delegate
to the National Holstein Conven
tion. In addition, he has served on
both local and stale DHI Boards,
as well as being active m church
and community activities.
Through their interest and sup
port Roger and Peggy have given
their children, all have remained
close to agriculture. Sons Jason
and Jeff, both beneficiaries of past
partnerships with Roger, arc
actively involved in Holstein
operations, as well as daughter
Joanne. Jerry still owns Holstein
cattle while employed as an agri
culture extension agent.
