Jointly representing the Pennsylvania Palomino Exhibitors Association and the Keystone Palomino Exhibitors Association, "Team Palomino 2000" had decorated stalls and a display area featuring the Palomino Horse on the Farm Show Arena's Main Lower Concourse throughout the week.
Showbooks and promotional materials for both clubs were distributed to hundreds of visitors, along with PHBA registration and membership information.
Assisting with the display were Merle and Mary Beth Kuznik of Irwin PA, and Vernon and Pauline Mast of Lititz PA.
PPEA President Norm Abbott and Jet N Out took second in the very competitive Barrel Race by the closest of margins!
MB and Jazz are tired but happy after a busy evening!
