You'll find it all at 4-H Horse
Show, first event of the fair
By BIRDINE TULLIS
Whether your interest in N
horse events runs to the
English or Western, trail
classes, comformation, or per
haps trying your eye on
judging horses, you'll find all
these included in the 4-H
Horse Show, Saturday, August
22.
The first official event of the
Morrow County Fair "81 will
bring the 4-H Horse club
members from all over the
county together to show their
new skills, as well as compete
for a long list of valuable
awards and prizes.
There's English equitation;
it almost seems like jolly old
England, as the kids turn out
in traditional attire. Then
there are jumper classes,
"Hunt Seat Equitation Over
Fences." Later, the same
member may be tossing on
his-her Western saddle on the
horse for a try at the more
familiar movements. A
special colt ground training
class gives members who are
training a colt the opportunity
to show their skills in horse
manship, as they work their
colts on the longe line, or a
series of other exercises.
Events at the 4-H show start
early, with members judging
horses at 8:30 a.m. Other
events of the show begin at
9:30 a.m. under the watchful
eye of Judge Elaine Akes. A
good place to view the show is
from the main grandstand ...
come early so you see it all!
Pig Scramble back again with
lots of squealing, fun

By BIRDINE TULLIS
Back this year by popular
demand, the 4-H Pig Scramble
will be the first event at the
Livestock Auction, Thursday
evening, August 27.
For many years the 4-H Pig
Scramble offered entertain
ment for the crowd, as well as
the start of a swine project for
those lucky enough to catch
the squealing young hogs as
they race around the arena.
Many champions were pro
duced in former years as a
result of the pig scramble.
Those who capture a gilt
must agree to raise it as a 4-H
project and to provide a gilt
for the succeeding year's fair.
The pigs will weigh about 60
pounds, and participants may
use only their hands in the
captiire. Lots of squealing ...
lots of fun!
