With four of the five breeds of dairy cows showing at this year’s Chelsea Community Fair, it was the Jerseys that took top honors on Thursday morning.

Joe Schloss was grand champion dairy and Mary Schloss was reserve grand champion.

Below are two slide shows from the judging.

The first photo gallery is of the dairy judging.

The second photo gallery was taken by Elizabeth Richardson of the novice class where adults and children tried their hands at showing dairy cows. (And, yes, I was one of them.) In fact, so many people wanted to give it a try every dairy cow and heifer ended up back in the ring with new showmen.

(A huge shout out to Katrina Luckhardt for allowing me to show Hope this morning. My grandfather would be proud.)
