ANIMAL INDUSTRY DAY - VIRGINIA TECH

"...easily the hit of the event." Andy Swiger, Dean of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences

Dr. Charles Steger, the president of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Blacksburg was present to honor the Animal and Poultry Sciences faculty and the producers whom they serve during Animal Industry Day 2000. Surely the president of a modern land-grant college was anxious to demonstrate his skill at the lines of a unicorn hitch, so Tom and Bob, with Ben in the lead were happy to oblige him.

Billy Hite, Assistant Head Football Coach at Virginia Tech, gave it the old college try, and seemed to enjoy himself!

Dr. Andy Swiger, Dean of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, took a turn at the lines, clearly demonstrating that he had driven a big hitch before, and often. We were most impressed. Andy knows a lot about draft horses. He's the man who "made it happen" with the help of members of the Virginia Draft Horse and Mule Association, and created the American Work Horse Museum in Lexington Virginia at the Virginia Horse Center.
