jumping was his trademark.
“He jumped around a lot,” ex
plained Heather Bankert of the
seemingfy-inappropriate label for
a docile-looking, 91-pound.
Southdown market lamb.
Wildcat took his most memor
able leap at the York 4-H Lamp
Roundup, when the judge jumped
him to the top of two dozen com
petitors to claim her first grand
champion title for the 13-year-old,
six-year 4-H exhibitor. The round
up and sale was held August 14 at
Weikert’s Buying Station.
The homebred winner opened
the lamb sale to spirited bidding,
ultimately gaveled off by auction
eer Hairy BAchman to the bid of
$2.40 pdr pound, from Service

land. Heather’s earnings from the
champion may help fund expenses
for the 30 head of market and
