The show will not be held this year. They didn't have enough funding. They will be holding a Judging Competition insead this year.

ENLS unfortunately will not be held this year. Due to prior events and circumstances we lost our State funding and without this support it's difficult to continue at this time. I personally would like to thank those that supported the show over the years and especially the last informal committee that worked to try and continue with the show...Scott W, Anne M and Jennifer H. Thanks to Andy C and the MD State Fairgrounds for their support and hospitality as well. Over the years many have said that ENLS needed to die and the hope and goal is that various breed and agricultural organizations will one day resurrect ENLS at another time and location that benefits all of us in agriculture. Until that time please give your attention and support to those livestock and agricultural shows that need our support in these difficult economic times. GZ
