The Keystone International
Livestock Exposition is in its 39th
year at Harrisburg. The Exposi
tion is recognized nationally as a
showcase for the nation’s top beef
cattle, swine, sheep, and horses. It
will be held at the Farm Show
Complex in Harrisburg on Octob
er 4-9.
To date, eighty-three major
sponsors have committed funds to
support the Keystone Internation
al Livestock Exposition. A spon
sorship program was put together
a few years ago to assist in fund
ing the show as well as to promote
the show. With the revamped
KILE program, many opportuni
ties exist for agricultural compa
nies and individuals to get
involved.
Glatfelter Insurance Group in
York, PA is sponsoring the “Chal
lenge of the Breeds” show on Fri
day evening in the large arena.
This event will pit nine interna
tionally recognized horse breeds:
Appaloosa, Arabian, Half-
Arabian, Percheron, Paint, Quar
ter Horse, Morgan, Palomino and
Pinto against each other in an
evening of fun and mastery. A tot
al of seventeen horses chosen by
their respective breed associations
will be entered in the competition.
The “Keystone Sovereign Champ
ion” will then receive $l,OOO.
Sponsoring the Kiddie Pedal
