Two rare Hog Island sheep from George Washington’s Mount Vernon Estate and Gardens were presented today to GW President Steven Knapp and his family.  The gift kicks-off the university’s week-long inaugural celebration honoring Knapp as its 16th president.   

 

President Steven Knapp and Diane Robinson Knapp both commented on their attire being made of wool.  Diane did not take credit for knitting her own sweater, but the president claimed he made his wool suit.
