Lancaster Fartrriiicf, Saturday, September 20, 2003-A4l All-American Dairy Show (Continued from Page A 29) exhibitors’ trucks were under water that was now approxi mately knee deep on the bam floor. Some trailers were not even able to get to the complex be cause of the flooding in the streets of Harrisburg. It was de cided to load as many animals as possible on each trailer as it ar rived in order to evacuate as soon as possible. Electricity was turned off in fear of electrical shock and the lighting became a real prob lem in safely moving the cattle. Many animals were led up the Large Arena ramps, walked out the front door of the complex, and actually tied to railings along Cameron Street which were on much higher ground. “It was common for exhibitors to have animals on many differ ent trailers and have them deliv ered by many different farms,’ said Mary Shank Creek of Palm yra Ayrshires in Hagerstown, Md. She also remarked on the great concern the staff, board members, and everyone gave to get all of the animals safely out of' danger. As a result, no animals were lost and no serious injuries occurred. Since the 25th celebration of the All-American Dairy Show, many new features have been added to the spectacular schedule of events. Highlighting some of theses additions are as follows: in 1988 the supreme champion pag eant was added and is held as the grand finale of the week’s events. The first selected supreme cham pion was C Renvale Prestar Della, a Holstein exhibited by Ly lehaven Farm of East Montpelier, Vt. As a part of the pageant, the current secretary of agriculture of Pennsylvania always presented the award. This year, Ag Secre tary'Dennis Wolff will bestow the honors. In 1993 the All-American Dairy Show Image Award was added to recognize an individual who has enhanced the image of the show by significant contribu tions toward its reputation, pres tige, and welfare. The first recipi ents were Lee Yost and John Walker. Decorations have adorned the show rings for more than 12 years, and for 15 years the All-American Buffet has pro vided exhibitors a complimentary meal on Wednesday evening. Justin Burdette from Franklin County won the first youth show manship contest, which was added in 1997. Exclusive to the All-American Dairy Week is the All Dairy Antiques and Collecti bles Show, which was made a part of the event in 1998. In 2003, the first-ever supreme youth champion was selected and won by Brothers Three Wisper DCS, a Brown Swiss owned and bred by Jacob Hushon of York County. President of the board, Obie Snider, commenting on the 2002 N.Y. Farm Bureau Salutes Governor’s Anti-Hunting Veto ALBANY, N.Y. New York Farm Bureau applauds Governor Pataki for vetoing the so-called “canned shoot” legislation. The unnecessarily restrictive bill would have weakened rural econ omies, devastated deer farms, and unfairly restricted hunters. The vetoed legislation, which was supported by zealous animal advocates like PETA and Fund for Animals, would have banned all hunts occurring in any en closed area of land regardless of size. Since the hunting of ani mals within an enclosed area of 10 acres is already prohibited by show, said, “Each year, the All- American is designed to show case the most outstanding dairy cattle in Pennsylvania, the Unit ed States, and in Canada. The in terest and excitement continues to mount for the finest show ever with increased premiums and programs for the open show and especially the 4-H, FFA, and all youth exhibitors. All attending the All-American Dairy Show will be thrilled.” And thrilled they were! Last year, $170,645 in premiums were paid out. More than 3,200 entries were received from more than 24 states and Canada, along with the most youth events and activi ties offered by any national dairy show. For more than 39 years, the All-American Dairy show, known as the Granddaddy of all national shows, has offered an extravaganza of events, contests, and activities unparalleled to any national dairy show. As the All- American Dairy Show’s 40th cel ebration nears, excitement and interest accelerates with each passing week. This year’s show will be the first All-American Dairy Show to be held in the newly completed and renovated Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex, which boasts of more than 24 acres under one roof. The All-Ameri can Dairy Show has been well known as an “exhibitor friendly” show for years, offering free parking, free admission, compli mentary coffee and doughnuts breakfast, morning newspaper, complimentary buffet, compli mentary ice cream social, and much more. Some of the special events planned for this fall’s 40th cele bration of the All-American Dairy Show are the Eastern Elite All-Breeds Sale, with a one-time offering of hand-selected animals for sale; a display of pictures of all past grand champions in all six dairy breeds; the addition of The Eastern National Red and White Holstein Show; and recog nition of six farms/exhibitors who have attended all shows since its inception in 1964.

This legislation simply would have been a first step to ward the elimination of hunting altogether. “I commend Governor Pataki for vetoing legislation which, rather than addressing a prob lem, sought to restrict a group of law-abiding farmers and hunt ers,” said John Lincoln, President of New York Farm Bureau. “Hundreds of deer farmers would have had their livelihoods threatened, and countless hunters would have been left with no place to partake in their sport.”
