[Jacob-list] Jacobs at fairs in general

[Lemon, Evalyn]

Keep trying - keep showing Jacobs - When there are finally enough animals
showing up to make up a class then it will probably happen.

Fairs in my area have recently begun to recognize wool breeds apart from
meat breeds and last year at the Puyallup, WA Fair they were the featured
breed when only three or four years ago they were "just" wool sheep.  

Change happens - it just takes time.

We're hoping to go to the NC State Fair for first time
this year.  Last year we observed many different
breeds of sheep in the Wool Sheep Show -- separate
show from market breeds.  Still only one Jacob!! I saw
that one, fell in love with the breed and now have my
own flock.
