At Quarryville Fair
ing good muscle expression, said
Bomgardner, who awarded the
hog grand champion status.
Tiffany Dean’s champion
heavyweight hog, according to
Bomgardner, was sound and “ex
tremely lean for the weight that
it is at.” Dean’s hog went on to
garner reserve champion placing.
Holloway, daughter of Clifford
and Joyce Holloway, is a ninth
grader at Soianco High School.
Holloway gets 3-4 hogs a year
from a cousin in Maryland.
This year only “Betsy” made
the weight requirements of the
show, which turned out to be a
good turn of events for Hollo
way. Holloway keeps her hogs on
her grandfather’s farm within
walking distance to her home, so
she can make the twice-a-day
trip to care for her animals.
Tiffany Dean, 14, took home
reserve grand champion placing
with her champion heavyweight
hog. The daughter of Gary and
Joan Dean, Strasburg, Dean is in
the eighth grade at Martin Mey
lin Middle School.
Dean also competes in the
sheep show ring in several fairs
during the season. This year
Dean’s reserve champ came from
a Myerstown hog farm and made
an appearance at the 4-H
Roundup before coming to Quar
ryville.
Both girls planned to sell their
hogs at the fair’s livestock sale.
A sales representative of
Hoobcr Inc. in McAlisterville,
Bomgardner is a Penn State
dairy and animal science gradu
ate, where he participated on the
university’s judging team. Bom
gardner judges 5-7 shows a year.
Andrew Herr’s hog, with its
muscle expression down the top,
sloped shoulder, and levelness
captured lightweight champion
honors.
“This hog has the biggest top,
good bone, feet, and legs, and has
natural skeletal width and is bold
in her hip,” said Bomgardner.
