MANHEIM (Lancaster
Co.) Although small compared
to other shows of other types of
livestock at community fairs in
southern Pennsylvania, the 2-year
old Manheim Fair Goat Show has
continued to attract a dedicated
core of enthusiasts.
Tim Grube, chairman of the
show, said that despite a lack of a
4-H group to promote and educate
young and old about die small milk
and meat ruminants, five families
in northern and eastern Lancaster
County have stayed with the fled
gling program and have improved
the quality of animals gready in
just one year.
Show judge Richard Stoneback,
a veterinarian and goat enthusiast
from New Oxford in Chester
County, constantly supported
Grube’s observation about the
quality of animals at the Manheim
Fair while giving his reasons for
placing the animals in their respec
tive orders.
The Manheim Goat Show does
not separate breeds but vies indivi
dual animals for exhibiting the best
characteristics desired in the
respective classes.
Taking the best doe of show was
Wendy, a 3-year-old that also cap
tured the senior champion title for
Darren Bishop of Elizabethtown.
The reserve senior champion
doe and reserve best doe of show
Manheim Dairy Goat Show Continues To Grow
was an aged doe, Cheri, owned by
Mike Hawthorne of Mt. Joy.
In the best bred-and-owned
class, Mandy Grube’s 3-year-old
doe Jackie was judged best.
