2008 Maryland Spring Holstein Show
By ANDREA HOOD-HAINES

TIMONIUM, Md. — MD-Maple-Dell Durham Imp, a 4-year old owned by Maple Dell Farm of Woodbine in partnership with Nate Goldenburg and Ari Eskstein, was named the grand champion female at the 38th Annual Maryland Spring Holstein Show held this past Saturday, April 5th. “This female exhibits the best qualities in mammary system for me today,” explains Judge Sean Johnson of Glenville, Pa. “It is for these qualities that she places over our reserve grand champion.” The reserve grand champion title was awarded to an aged cow, also exhibited by Maple Dell Farm, MD-Maple-Dell Encore Ina-ET.

Parker Welch of Chestertown won the junior division junior champion banner with his fall yearling, Rocky-Mount Dur Lavish. Laurel Moore followed his lead by winning the reserve junior champion banner for exhibiting her spring yearling, MS-Kingsmill Aspn Eleanor-ET. Winning the award for exhibiting the overall best bred and owned junior animal was Holly Wright of New Windsor with her 4-year old, MD-Carrollton SG Beedapple.
