Setting up ice cream for the host of fellow sheep competitors has become a post-show tradition at the fair among the families who return to the show arena year after year. Cortney, the daughter of Tim and Beth Flory, Spring Grove, is just the latest sheep exhibitor in at least the third generation of extended Flory clan to partici pate in the York Fair. Her win ning heavyweight champion ewe, “Sunflower,” is a purebred from the flock of J & J Acres. The youngster is a first-grader at Spring Grove’s Paradise Ele mentary School and has been helping with the family’s sheep showing for at least three years. Pulled into the ring as the re serve champion open class market lamb was Melissa Tros tle, Red Lion, a member of the Ronald Trostle family and an other long-time York Fair shep herding competitor.
