Pfautz Enjoys Champion Swine Limelight At New Holland
ANDY ANDREWS
Lancaster Farming Staff
NEW HOLLAND (Lancaster
Co.) Kevin Pfautz waited
patiently, watching as his sister,
Lisa, won champion swine at the
Ephrata Fair the previous week.
This time, it was Lisa’s turn to
wait and congratulate her brother,
as Kevin picked up the large
championship trophy Tuesday
evening at the New Holland Far
mers’ Fair.
Kevin, 16, son of Rick and Sue
Pfautz, Lititz, showed a hog that
was “longer-bodied, an ultra lean
pig, with a larger framework than
the others in the show ring,”
according to Nelson Beam, Elver
son, judge.
Kevin, a sophomore at Warwick
High School, showed the light
heavyweight division champion, a
gilt from a Hampshire/Duroc sow
bred to a Yorkshire boar. The fam
ily raises only show hogs. As for
Kevin, he plans to show at Man
heim, the Keystone International
Swine showmanship champions at New Holland. From

served on the All-American
dairy show improvement com
mittee since the committee
began in 1988.
Elsie and her husband, Scott
have bred several Excellent
Guernseys on their Hollow View
Farm in Quarryville, Lancaster
County.
When asked how to keep the
All-American dairy show grow
ing, she said, "The youth are the
future and we need to keep
encouraging them and showing
them what a great way of life
the dairy business can provide."
If her past accomplishments are
any indication, we can be sure
she will work to encourage
young people to be a part of the
dairy industry that she loves.
The image award is given
each year to someone who has
worked diligently to improve the
image of the All-American show,
now in its 35th year. The award,
a hand-crafted stained glass
hanging mirror, is inscribed;
"Awarded to an individual who
has enhanced the image of the
Pennsylvania All-American
Dairy Show by significant con
tributions toward its reputation,
Livestock Exposition, and Farm
Show.
Reserve champion went to last
year’s grand champion" of the
show, Patrick Good. Patrick, 19, is
the son of Amos and Pat Good,

overall leanness of the hog, “just a
real complete pig,” he said.
