Danny Lynn Crossno has had quite the summer racking up awards while participating in FFA shows with her goat, Hardy. Most recently she participated in the NEA Summer Swelter Jackpot Show Series, a three-show series in which Crossno walked away with two Grand Champions, two Senior Showmanship Champions, and one Reserve Grand Champion, plus all the High Points Exhibitor awards during the series.
