Chester
Sale
WEST CHESTER (Chester
Co.) , Chester County dairy
farmers are joining the campaign
to raise funds for the Romano 4-H
Center of Chester County.
They will have a sale of donated
dairy animals on Saturday. April
2, at II a.m. at Solanco Fair
grounds in Quarryville.
Members of the sale committee
have been contacting dairy farm
ers and have received over 30
Ayrshire, Holstein and Jersey ani
mals plus other contributions to
date. When the calves and heifers
are sold, the proceeds will be giv
en to the 4-H Center Building
Fund.
The goal of the sale committee
is to have a sale with minimum ex
penses so that practically all of the
income can go to this worthy
cause. To achieve this goal, many
people are donating their time.
Leon Kurtz, Cochranville, will
be the auctioneer, committee
members will haul the animals to
the sale, the fair committee is
charging very little for the use of
their facilities, and 4-H members
and leaders will prepare the ani
mals to be sold.
Chester County ranks fifth in
Pennsylvania in the sale of dairy
products, and the continued pros
perity of the dairy industry is con
tingent on today’s youth being to
morrow’s farmers.
The new 4-H Center will be
home to all 4-H youth and their
families in Chester County.
4-H Club meetings, shows.

Dairymen To Hold
For 4-H Center
sales, roundups, and other activi
ties will be held at the center. It
will eventually provide a meeting
place for large Extension meetings
and, when not in use by Coopera
tive Extension, it would be avail
able for use by community groups.
Currently, it is necessary to
conduct many of these events in
non-central locations, often out
side of Chester County and at rent
al facilities. This has resulted in a
loss of identity for the 4-H pro
gram and a lost opportunity for
youth to work and play together.
The total 4-H Center fund-rais
ing campaign from all sources is
aimed at raising $750,000 for con
struction of facilities. The dairy
industry’s contribution through
this sale will not only raise some
funds toward this goal, but will
also signify their commitment to
the youth in the county.
The opportunity to undertake
the development of a 4-H Center
has been made possible by a most
generous donation of IS acres of
land by the estate and heirs of Fi
orre A. Romano of West Brandy
wine Township. The land is along
Route 322 between Guthriesville
and Honeybrook.
The sale committee of 14 dairy
farmers from all areas of Chester
County is co-chaired by John St.
John of Lincoln University
(869-8745) and Mildred Seeds of
Downingtown (269-0759). Any
one interested in donating a dairy
animal or offering other contribu
tions should contact the chairper
sons.
