Open Dairy Cattle Show Highlights Bennington County Fair
The Bennington County Field Day featured a large dairy cattle open show with 59 animals judged by Harold Magnussen. Winners spanned junior calves to cows, with Bill Leach and Ken Leach taking top honors, and Roz Leach and Mary West competing in the ladies class. The event praised Camp Ondawa’s new Morey Barn, built by local farmers and 4-H members, aiming to house over 80 animals next year. The raspberry patch advice urged pruning, weed control, and delaying fertilization until spring to protect against disease.
