We had a great time with fellow rabbit friends and showing, and did very well! I was the Youth Superintendent and everything
went very smoothly :) Barb did a great job of multi-tasking, writing all day both days AND showing the bunnies!
At PA Convention we were awarded 1st Place Mini
Rex Sweepstakes and Runner-Up Open Exhibitor of the Year within PaSRBA Sweepstakes.
In addition, we were the Overall Sweepstakes, Overall Fur, 1st Place Blue, Broken, Otter, Colored Fur and White
Fur winners within Majestic Mini Rex Specialty Club Sweepstakes.
Pictured above is one of our Tibetan Spaniels, Honey Bee,
checking out the bunnies! She wanted to make sure her opinion was heard as we evaluated our show team! :)
