" ' 4 . - ' r- , i r . . . v.- ' . . Lii'bi mmmi '01 Sol was burnin' down real hot like... the breeze, when it did come over the hill, brought skimpy twisters of dust and grit and there in the middle of it all was a gather-in' of riders all decked out in their Saturday-night best and put on a show they did. The event was the Morrow County 4-H Horse Show held last Sunday at the Fair grounds. Starting at 10 a.m. and for the next nine hours the 4-H'ers put on an exhibition of their skills for Judge Frank Herman of Hood River and a crowd of parents and interes ted onlookers. Lori Witt, a competitor in the intermediate division, stole the show awards-wise taking All-Around Champion honors in three of the six events. Looking good Morrow County Fair & Rodeo Princess Krynn Robinson takes advantage of a break in the action to "pretty up" for Judge Frank Herman's benefit maybe. Miss Witt was named All Around Champion in Show manship, Western Equitation and English Equitation, which means she also picked up ribbons and points for being the champion of her division in each of those events. Krynn Robinson, a senior division competitor, was All Around Champion in Hunt Seat Over Fences and Trail Horse competition and picked up All-Around Reserve Cham pion honors in English Equi tation and Western Equita tion. Ann Van Schoiack took the championship in Colt Ground Training with Pat Schwartz taking the Reserve Cham pionship honors. Dawn Peterson was selected All-Around Reserve Cham pion in showmanship and Deb Palmer picked up the All Around Reserve Champion title for Hunt Seat Over Fences.
