Garden State Sheep Breeders Show
This year we only traveled to one show - The Garden State Sheep Breeders Wool and Fiber Festival. We had sold most
of our lambs before the fall shows, and so we ended up showing three ram lambs. Jonathan (white) was 5th in the classic
ram lamb class, Simon of Cyrene (my black breeding ram for this year) was 4th, and Caleb (white) was second. Caleb
was Reserve Champion in that class and when we paired him with Simon they took second in Classic Pair.

New York Wool and Sheep Fair - Rhinebeck, NY
In October
2008 we were privileged to exhibit our sheep in the Breeds Barn. We took Charlotte and Darra, and set up an information booth
next to them. People showed a lot of interest in our two yearlings, one white and one black, and Charlotte proved to
be the prima donna, posing for photo after photo, while Darra , bored with her second show at Rhinebeck, took a
nap. ATTENTION We will again be in the Breeds Barn at Rhinebeck on
October 17 and 18, 2009. Jonanthan and Caleb will be picked up at the end of the show to go to their new home in New York
State, and Simon of Cyrene will come home for his first breeding season on our farm. Be sure to come by and see our 3 boys
and our display - Toni will be there spinning and talking (yes, she can do them at the same time!).
