Farm Show Schedule (Continued tram Pag* A 1) The Chuck Wagon food is pre pared by 15 people working for a caterer and sold by dozens of vol unteers who are members of the PLA. Snyder said the volunteers sold - 2,248 units of lamb stew, 20,625 pork barbeque sandwiches, 18,500 roast beef sandwiches, and 6,000 ham and cheese sandwiches. “It helped considerably,” Snyd er said of making Saturday open to die public and making Thursday the last day. “I’ve seen a lot more families. And the horse show day, the horse pulling day, is still the biggest day. The day change for the Farm Show was approved two years ago by the state Farm Show Commis sion which was acting mainly to help exhibitors get out on the road home before weekend traffic caused congestions and increased risks. The result seems to have been a stimulation of interest in the show. Several hundred animals were turned away this year. The dairy show was bigger. More people showed up overall. Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture Secretary Boyd Wolff said he was also very pleased with the results. He is chairman of the Farm Show Commission. - all per “I thought we had great atten dance, great weather and a great time, but I’m most pleased with the fact that I talked to commercial exhibitors who told me they were pleased with the level of interest in their products,” Wolff said. "I am also pleased with the Lancaster Farming, Saturday, January 18, 1992-Al7 $25,000 price paid for the'Farm Show steer. That’s a big record that may stand for a while,” Wolff said. Gene Schenck, press secretary for Wolff said, “I think the com- mission is very obviously pleased with the decision to go to opening the show on Saturyda with the idea to attract people. They certainly were correct in their assumption. “I don’t think anybody disputes the fact that it was a good move. Every day was a big crowd,” Schenck said. Events such as the youth rodeo, the selection for the supreme dairy cow, and others were packed. “It could be the (good) wealh- cr,” Schcnck said Thursday. "But even today, last year they were tearing down at noon. This year people were showing products right up till closing time.” The dates for the 1993 show have been released. The 76th Farm Show is to run from Jan. 9 to Jan 14
