Grand Slam at Boonah

By Jack Murphy aged 13, a Year 8 student at Pittsworth State High School.

On Friday 16th and Saturday 17th of May, Pittsworth State High School took thirteen Lik Lik Lowlines to a feature show at Boonah. We won many awards including Reserve Champion Junior Bull,Champion Senior Bull,Champion Senior Female,Grand Champion Bull, Grand Champion Female, Supreme Lowline Exhibit, Champion British Breed Female.

Lik Lik Blinky, who won Supreme Champion Lowline, is one of the bulls that are paraded by Pittsworth High. Blinky has won other awards like Supreme Champion Lowline Bull and Champion British Breeds Bull at Toowoomba Royal. The next major trip for Blinky will be the Brisbane Ekka. We hope to see some good competition and support from other Lowline breeders. See you there.
