WOW what a week! Just returned home from a great week at the 2010 Junior National Hereford Expo in Indianapolis. It was a successful week for the Adcocks topped off with Tamar being elected to the NJHA board. Our thanks to all the Illinois Hereford breeders and juniors who were so supportive. Thanks to all of you - you are truly a blessing.

Our thanks and congratulations to our friends from Indiana who hosted the largest JNHE in history and did it wonderfully!

 Tamar in Top 10 of Senior Showmanship

Tamar achieved a big goal by reaching the finals of senior showmanship this year. This was her first year to be in the senior division. Our thanks to the many "big brothers" who have helped her learn to fit over the years. Special thanks to Jacob Chapman for his encouragement and to John Bickelhaupt and Jonathon Harfst for helping with the pre-game prep!

 

Tamar elected to NJHA Board

It was a emotional moment as Kaitlyn Mulvany took off the burgandy jacket she has worn so well and passed it on to Tamar. Tamar spent the week going through several interviews and meeting voting delegates as a candidate for the NJHA board. We are very proud of her but equally proud of Taryn, Dean, and Del for picking up the extra work at stalls without complaint.
