Wondering what to do with all the
venison the deer hunters in your
family lugged home this week?
Here are recipes from an
anonymous reader. It’s sure to bea
help in serving tasty meals to fami
ly and friends.
When preparing venison, use
the same cooking techniques as
those for lean beef. Trim the outer
layer of Cat before cooking. Use a
small amount of vegetable oil, if
you plan to saute, or if necessary,
vegetable spray to grease the pan.
This is suggested as venison fat
tends to have a strong flavor and
can become rancid quickly. Meat

party hit.

of younger animals is more tender
so dry cooking methods such as
pan frying, toasting, and broiling
can be employed. Tougher meat
from older deer or the chuck and
shank cuts in general benefit from
moist cooking such as braising or
slewing. Most importantly, be sure
to cook the meat completely as you
would pork or chicken.

ous leg injury. She also serves as
teen leader and on Teen Council in
4-H.
Upon seeing how much her sis
ter enjoyed horses and 4-H, 11-
year-old Mary wanted to start rid
ing. The sixth grader has ridden
for two years and so far has com
peted in Western riding. However,
she is learning English style and
wants to leant to jump and do
everything that Leah does. She has
been in 10 shows and was overall
Pee Wee champion in Buffalo Val
ley. She hopes to get her own
horse someday but is content with
riding one owned by Tuck-A-Way
Farm where she goes regularly
with Leah to practice and have fun
riding. Mary enjoys 4-H very
much, and also school. She plans
to be a teacher.

and insignia. Many hours and
much effort had been spent by
members and parents to raise the
money for these jackets.
Two sisters, 15- year-old Holly
and 5-year-old Jessica Thomas,
are active in the 4-H Pegasus
Horse and Pony Club of which
their mother, Pam, is the leader.
Holly has been in the 4-H Club for
four years and has gone to state
competition all four years. In the
Horse Show at the Juniata County
Fair, Holly had the Grand Cham
pion Appaloosa mare at halter for
three-year-olds, plus she took sec
ond with her quarter horse for
showmanship; second in the egg
and spoon contest; and led Jessica
to first place in leadline competi
tion. Their home is in Mifflin
town.
A really small rider is Shanna
Hart, one-year-old daughter of
Duane and Heidi Hart. When only
three months old, Shanna first sat
on a horse on her mother’s lap
and has been hooked ever
since! She has her own tiny sad
dle, boots and a special hat. Of
course she is supported on the
horse by the steady hand of dad or
mother who walks alongside as
Shanna competes in leadline com
petition. Her mother had her first
pony when she was only 18
months old, and she was in 4-H
until age 18. She still competes in
open shows but is temporarily
sidelined as she awaits the birth of
Shanna’s brother or sister. The
Harts live near Port Royal.
Another small rider is Christine
Sciortino, seven-year-old daugh
ter of Frank and Francine Sciorti
no of Lewistown. Christine has
been riding since Mareh and has
been in three shows in the English
style of riding. She placed second
in one of those shows in leadline
competition. Christine looks for
ward to becoming a member of the
4-H Horse Club but will have to
wait until 1996 because her eighth
birthday in February will be too
late for the January deadline. She
also takes piano lessons and likes
to read and play outdoors.
Those horse lovers agree: You’re
never too young to start, and you
can keep riding the rest of your
life. Whether in competition or
just plain old riding, you can real
ly get hooked on horses!
