Hayes said. “These efforts have
resulted in exports of Holstein heif
ers to Lebanon and Puerto Rico;
beef livestock genetics to Poland;
fine hardwoods to Mexico and Ita
ly; and a new market for fresh poul
try in Japan.”
The Pennsylvania State Police
mounted drill team performed dur
ing the opening ceremonies. The
20-member team performed a cho
reographed drill identical to one
conducted for the State Police

the Farm Show. Created in 1905,
the team was the first of its kind in
the nation. The original team con
sisted of 228 men and 228 horses
and was the primary transportation
for the state police at that time.
Following the opening ceremo
nies, Gov. Ridge stayed to watch
