In the end, Troy went on to win grand champion of the market steer show last week at the Reading Fair. Troy, 17, son of Larry and Delores Gelsinger, is a senior at Conrad Weiser High School. The steer was from the heavy light weight class.

Hoffman, who raises Polled Hercfords at Dunwalke Farms, picked Kelly Dietrich’s “Bliz zard” (named for the Blizzard of ’93), a purebred Angus, as reserve champion. Kelly, 9, daughter of Jim and Karen Dietrich, Hamburg, is in the fourth grade at Schuylkill Valley Elementary School. Her steer weighed 1,235 pounds, from NEED YOUR FARM BUILDINGS PAINTED?
