LAWN VALE FARM HOSTS
BUILDERS ASSOCIATION
In his continued efforts to pro­
mote the Tennessee Walking Horse
in the Virginia area, Mr. E. Carl
Hengen was host to the Northern
Virginia Builders Assn, including
contractors, builders, local digni­
taries and their families. Over one
thousand people attended the
event. The Lawn Vale Farms, lo­
cated in Gainesville, Virginia is
one of the most beautiful Tennessee
Walking Horse facilities in the na­
tion. A full scale program is under
way here under the guidance of
John Piercy, Jr., General Manager;
Ernest Bugg, Trainer and Edward
Stephenson, Assistant Trainer.
The big event was held June 27,
and included a full schedule of
Walking Horse activities and other
related functions. The program
was opened by Sam Paschal of
Murfreesboro. Tennessee, carrying
the flag on WHITE SENSATION
JR., the Celebration Flag Horse.
Among the outstanding horses that
were exhibited to the guests were
STAR MAJOR WILSON G.S.B.,
SON’S SHADOW, Reserve Junior
32
Stallion in 1958, BEE’S BIG SHOT,
tenth in the big stake in 1963 and
SUN’S SPRING QUEEN, Reserve
Champion Mare in 1962.
The efforts of Mr. and Mrs. E.
Carl Hengen to further promote the
Tennessee Walking Horse in their
part of the country are greatly
appreciated. Their Lawn Vale
Farm represents the untimate in
Walking Horse facilities and it is
people such as these that will as­
sist the advancement of the breed
to the mutual advantage of every­
one.
