“The State Farm Show is one of
the major events in our common
wealth, attracting people from all
67 countries,” Secretary Brosius
said. “The Farm Show director

Grumbine Is Named
a large variety of people and orga
nizations, supervise a large staff,
manage a sizeable budget, and still
pay attention to the small details.
Dennis has been a Farm Show
commissioner for 16 years and has
both the background and experi
ence to do an outstanding job.”
With 16 acres under roof, the sprawling
Farm Show Building includes seven exhibit
halls, a large and small arena, cafeteria and
meeting rooms. Paved parking lots make up
the remainder of the 60-acre site.
Three major agricultural shows are con
ducted annually at the Farm Show
Complex—the Pennsylvania All-American
Dairy Show, Keystone International Lives
tock Exposition and Pennsylvania State Farm
Show. The facility is home of the Harrisburg
Heat soccer team and plays host to 60 annual
trade shows such as the Eastern Sports and
Outdoor Show, Auto Show and Home Buil
ders Show.
“The Farm Show, Livestock Exposition
and Dairy Show are very important to our
agriculture community,” Grumbine said,
“and the quality of animals represented here
are second to none. Premiums from these
shows are used by family farms to enhance
their genetic base, with the ultimate benefac
tor being the consumer through things like
leaner meats. But in order for that to happen,
you have to have a forum like this Complex
for competitive livestock shows.”
He added, “There are a variety of livestock
shows and activities for the young people,
which keeps them challenged mentally and
physically. It teaches them about responsibili
ty and gives a feeling of accomplishment.”
Grumbine graduated from the Eastern
Lebanon County High School in 1965, where
he served as president of the Future Farmers
of America and received the Keystone Farmer
Award and American Farmer Degree. The
immediate past-president of the Pennsylvania
Livestock Association, Grumbine was
inducted into the Livestock Hall of Fame in
1992.
He has also served as chairman of the Key
stone International Livestock Exposition,
president of the Pennsylvania Swine Breeders
Cooperative and holds membership in many
community and agricultural related
organizations.
Along with his wife Barbara and sons
Daryl and Darren, Grumbine raises purebred
Dorsets and crops on his 300-acre farm. They
own and operate the Evergreen Tractor Com
pany, an official dealership for Bobcat Con
struction and Farm Equipment.
