HLRSC Sweeptstakes
The HLRSC posted its sweepstakes standings a couple of days ago. If you haven't already, drop by and check it out.
I want to point out a few features. First, Zemy and Feld already have as many points as the second place exhitior from all of last year. That is an absolutely amazing feat. They are set to create a record that may stand for all time. Congratulations Chris and Christine!
Although the first two spots are held by the traditionally strong zone 2 (and I shouldn't be glossing over the wonderful accomplishments of Ardis & Tim in their rabbitry), let me point out that zone 9, my own zone, it doing very well! Lukeman & Buchanauer are third for sweeps but first for quality! Congratulations Tracy & Jenna. Kathy Schwartz, another zone 9 exhibitor, is in the top 25. Go Kathy!
I'm in the 6th spot for sweeps, 9th for quality, and tied for 7th in herdsman. That's GC The Nature Trail's May in the BIS list. GC Camelot's Merlin and GC The Nature Trail's Brook made the top lop lists midway down somewhere.
In youth, zone 9 takes the top spot honors with Paige & Kylee Smith of Narrowgate Farm. I understand the girls were screaming in the background when their mom answered my email - they didn't know until I wrote them. I guess they were a little excited. I also see them on the BRIS list.
I think DJ Swan is probably still walking on air from his 4th place spot. I hear he's out in the barn breeding at this very moment!! That'll motivate anyone to keep working at it! I'm wondering if that's Mtn's Narada on the top lop list for DJ.
In 11th place is my good friend Fayth Young and her partner Taylor Brashear. Way to go girls. At 14th is our friend Hannah Hayes and her brother Noah. You are doing our zone proud.
Given that this is a marathan 18-month year, many things can happen before we are through. There's still time to rise to the top, if that's your goal.
Congratulations to all of the people who have had fun showing their rabbits, who have improved their herds this year, who have met new friends, and who have had any number of different kinds of success in the 2005-2006 show year!
