A hearty and sincere THANK YOU to Donna Sybert, managing editor, and the reporters, photographers and typists of the Butler Eagle for their excellent coverage of the many local events this summer.

From pages and pages of listing winners of the thousands of classes at the Big Butler Fair and the Butler Farm Show to the many personal stories and wonderful pictures, the Butler Eagle covered them all and afforded us a behind-the-scenes look at what makes a farm show. As the person who sent you the judging results, I realize the hours required to transform the information the way you did.

Thank you, also, to the 260 volunteers and thousands of exhibitors of the Butler Farm Show. Your work made the show possible. Your entries made this year's farm show a great exhibition of products produced in our area. After seeing entire families bring in their entries and talking with many participants, the Butler Farm Show really has become a “family tradition.”
