Show-Ring Laurels

We wrapped up the 2011 show season with success at The All American Jersey Show.

Kan Do Cindy was named Reserve All American Milking Senior Yearling and Judes Fad placed eighth in the senior three-year-old class.

Earlier in the summer, Dustin Lilly, owned by Amy Green, Munfordville, KY, and bred by Rider Jersey Farm, was named Grand Champion of the Kentucky State Fair. Rider Jersey Farm topped the class for best three females and earned the Premier Breeder banner as well.
