Forty Four youngsters participated in the annual Frog Jumping Contest sponsored by the LaHarpe Lions Club.
1st place Brickston Mellinger with "Applesauce",
2nd place Paige Olin with "Bungie",
3rd place Ashley Olin with "Prince."
I haven't had the pleasure until this year to watch the frogs jump and found it to be very enjoyable. Some of these youngsters would touch the frogs and some would not. I admit, I almost "jumped" out of my chair a few times when a frog got loose.
The kids had a great time and I think the spectators did too. With Boyd Mueller at the microphone, you have to have a good time.
We appreciate the Lions Club for this event.
