NORTH CORNWALL (Leba
non Co.) Garrett Masc of
Lebanon on Tuesday exhibited a
senior 3-year-old Brown Swiss
cow to win the supreme champion
ship of the 1998 Lebanon Area
Fair youth daily shows.
The win was a first for Garrett,
with his senior 3-year-old, Tow
path Jetway Gilda, the grand
champion of the FFA and open
division Brown Swiss shows of the
Lebanon Area Fair.
His win was also a first for the
Lebanon Area Fair, because it was
the first time, to knowledge, that a
pair of siblings captured both the
supreme and runner-up supreme
titles at the same time.
Garrett’s younger brother,
Anthony Mase, showed the
runner-up supreme champion, an
8-year-old, Pheasant Ridge Marie,
that was grand champion of the
4-H division show.
Garrett received the supreme
championship trophy, while youn
ger brother Anthony received a
fancy show halter.
The boys are the sons of Gary
and Patti Mase, who own and oper
ate a Brown Swiss dairy farm at the
edge of the city of Lebanon. The
family has consistently exhibited
highly competitive Brown Swiss
cattle at the fair, as well as at reg
ional and national breed industry
shows.
They have a daughter, Alicia,
who exhibited a supreme champ
ion several years ago at the fair.
Also a Brown Swiss, that champ
ion was Meadowhill Jade Alice, a
7-year-old that Alicia showed this
week to win first place in the aged
cow, 5-years-old and older, class.
Alicia also exhibited a senior
3-year-old Brown Swiss, Mcado
whill Patrick Alania, a daughter of
that seven-year-old homebred and
past show-winning cow.

Swiss show, Gary Mase showed

family’s entries dominated the
