W h eth er it is baking, canning, growing fruits, vegetables or flowers, sew ing, c ra fts, taking pictures or painting, there is a category for you at the fair. It is simple to become an active participant. All one needs to do is to go to the F air O ffice, pick up an e x h ib ito r n um ber and a premium sheet and then take the item s to the various departm ents on M onday, Aug. 14, between 1 p.m. and 8 p.m. Fruits, vegetables and flowers are also accepted Tuesday morning, Aug. 15, from 8-10 a.m. Ren'ee Yocom, Fair Secretary, will be happy to answer any questions. Office hours are Monday through Friday from 8 a.m .-12 p.m. and 1-5 p.m.. Marty Davis started out singing country music, but one of the most popular parts of his show has always been the Western music segment. (For those who don't know the difference: Country is what you hear on the radio currently. It’s the nation’s favorite and most listened-to music. Western tells the story of the Old West and the Silver Screen Cowboy ...Gene, Roy and the Sons of the Pioneers.) So come and join us Thursday night at Murray’s-Country Rose Wine and Micro-Beer Tasting for a nostalgic trip through time ...back to when the good guys wore white hats, kissed their ponies instead of the girls, headed the bad guys off at the pass and always caught 'em in the end-all without mussing up their rhinestone and fringed shirt- and then rode off into the sunset. See you all there at 7:45 p.m. following the Round-Up City Cloggers. PA Y B A C K Special awards to be given out Again this year, special awards will be given in the Poultry and Small Animals Department. Barbara VanArsdale for years has given out money to the exhibitors at the Fair. Categories include: Youngest Exhibitor-$15; Most Attentive Exhibitor-$15; and Most Unique Exhibitor-$20. KT’s Bunny Bam, co-owned by Kathy Tellechea and Pam Renfro, will give a $50 savings bond to the Grand Champion Youth in either open or 4-H. “Bring your poultry and small animals down to the Fair to exhibit, “ said a fair spokesperson. “Even though the deadline is past we still have room for more!"
