A. E. Newman's Mule Wins National Awards

Published by Lois Lame, SSALRCYTMVDQJCP & Assistant Editor

A. E. Newman
Candidate for Gasconade County SDAC

Date: 9/21/2010

We just learned that A. E. Newman's Missouri mule named 'Truman' has won highly-coveted awards from The American Donkey and Mule Society (ADMS).

'Truman' won the blue ribbon award in two categories:

'The Stubbornest Mule' Award, and
'The Best Groomed Mule' Award.

Newman credits his hard-working staff at Newman's Mid-Missouri Mule Riding Ranch near Bland for helping 'Truman' win this award. (See photo of 'Truman' below.)

Newman recently announced his candidacy for Southern District Associate Commissioner of Gasconade County. Newman will be opposing incumbent Jerry Lairmore in the 2012 general election.

Newman told Hermann Hearsay that he plans to ride 'Truman' in the 2011 and 2012 Gasconade County Fair Parade in Owensville.
