DENVER (Lancaster Co.) A
“super athletic-looking” hog that
appeared to be “sculpted out of
piece of marble or something,”
according to the judge, won
supreme champion market swine
Tuesday evening at the Denver
Fair.
The 250-pound supreme gilt
was exhibited by Patrick Good, 18,
to his first Denver swine
championship.
Show judge Larry Arnold,
Womelsdorf, chose the medium
heavyweight division winner to
supreme champion, a black gilt
that exemplifies one of those “real
trendy kind of hogs,” the words
used in the industry today, he
noted. Those kinds of hogs, Arnold
indicted, generally “hand up good
carcasses are really lean.”
Patrick, son of Amos and Patri
cia Good, Lititz, is a senior at War
wick. He exhibited a crossbred
Hampshire/Yorkshire gilt
obtained from Oscar Manbeck,
Bethel.
Arnold chose the reserve
champion exhibited by Kyle
Fleener, heavyweight division
winner. Kyle, who won last year’s
reserve champion at the fair,
showed a 265-pound barrow, a
Hampshire crossbred. The hog
was obtained from Jim Parlett,
Airville.
Kyle, 13, son of Tim and Sarah
Fleener, Robesonia, is in the Blh
grade at Elco Middle School. He
said that he often exercises the
hogs. He said his dad helped pick
out the hog at the Parlett side.
In the showmanship competi
tion, Dean Livengood took senior
champion, intermediate champion
went to Kyle Fleener, and junior
champion went to Chescey
Hoover.
In all, there were a total of 12
exhibitors and 21 hogs at the third
annual swine show. Following is a
list of show placings.
