Sacramento, CA…Senator Tom Berryhill (R-Twain Harte) is pleased to announce the winners of the 41st annual Capitol Frog Jump. Elected officials, legislative staffers, media and members of the public jockeyed their frogs in hopes of winning the coveted trophies. There are three winning categories: longest, shortest and media jump. There were no flies in the ointment this year. Every jump was spectacular – some more so than others. Trophies and bragging rights were awarded to winners of the following categories:

Longest Jump goes to Senator Runner’s Legislative Aide, Doria Wallentine, and her frog R2Green2. R2Green2 jumped an impressive 10ft 9.5 in.

Shortest Jump went to the Department of Food and Ag’s Undersecretary, Jim Houston. Mr.Houston’s frog, Clayton Kerfrog only jumped 3ft 3 in.

And finally, the Media Jump winner is once again KFBK reporter, Joe Michaels and his frog Christopher Ribbit. Christopher and Joe have been down this road before and are returning champions from the 2013 jump. This year Christopher cleared a full 8ft 5 in of the Capitol lawn.
Winners qualify to participate in the Grand Finals at the Calaveras County Fair & Jumping Frog Jubilee, May 17. For more information visit frogtown.org
