useful, insulated International Tumblers the youth re- ceived a coffee table edition of Tennessee Walking Horse: An American Tradition generously donated by the Chip Carrier family. Each and every 4 H exhibitor received a TWH Book and they were absolutely thrilled to know everyone would get such an impressive award. Victoria Kalosis, for the 2nd year in a row, donated gift sacks to the first place winners in the 4 H Classes. These gift sacks were a much sought after addition to the regular awards.
