One of those has expanded and will be offering a cafeteria line approach as opposed to the waiter and waitress approach they have Page 1 used in the past.” Adkins said there seems to be a couple of food items that have been the most popular over the years. “Three of the churches will offer chicken and noodles,” Adkins said. “Christ Sanctuary does the barbecued Oh. Lic. #26659 chicken that Valley United Methodist did for years.” In addition to those home-cooked meals, there will always be the staple fair food items. “There will be the full range of fair food - hamburgers, hot dogs, funnel cakes, elephant ears, snow cones,” Adkins said. “All of that stuff will be available by concessionaires on the midway.” Adkins said the fair board is expecting something extra special this year. “We do expect the lady who was here a number of years ago with her Chinese food to return this year,” Adkins said. “She’s scheduled to come back and be with us.” Adkins said variety is the key to food choices at the fair again in 2015.

Portsmouth Daily Times 2015 Scioto County Fair Preview Saturday, August 8, 2015 3 Getting the most bang for your buck By Wayne Allen tallen@civitasmedia.com The 2015 Scioto County Fair is scheduled for Aug. 10-15, with general admission to the fair $8. Fair organizers encourage area residents to take advantage of what you receive with admission. Robert Seaman, president of the Scioto county Fair Board, said this year’s schedule is jammed full of activities for anyone and everyone. “We are bringing some local musical groups in. They will play though out the day on the south end of the fairgrounds. We’re always looking for ways to; bring some of our local talent in. We started that a couple of years ago,” Seaman said. A complete listing and schedule of local entertainment appearing at the fair can be found at www.sciotocountyfair.org. Seaman said in recent years they started offering shuttle services to the parking lots, for those that may need assistance. “This is for folks to have easier access, to get back and forth from the parking lots. We plan on continuing to offer those shuttles,” Seaman said. Seaman said this year’s entertainment has a lot to offer the community. “I’m a big fan of the circus and that always gets a lot of children involved,” Seaman said. On Monday, Aug. 10, the entertainment will be the Motorcross Championship Series. Tuesday, Aug. 11, will feature The Willis Clan, Wednesday, Aug. 12, will feature The Swon Brothers, and Thursday, Aug. 13, will feature the Circus Continental. On Friday, Aug. 14, the group Lonestar will perform and Saturday, Aug. 15, will feature a Demolition Derby. “I think we’ve got some young talent this year and I’m really interested to see how it goes and what kind of a crowd they bring in,” Seaman said. Seaman said some of the things he’s looking forward to during the fair include, hopes for no rain. “It’s been raining throughout the month of July, so maybe in August we will not get any rain and we’ll have a nice fair,” Seaman said. Seaman said he’s also looking forward to seeing people at the fair. Included in admission are all grandstand shows and events as well as most rides. According to www.sciotocountyfair.org, Active Duty Armed Services Members are admitted free with official identification. Friday, Aug. 14 is Senior Citizens Day at the fair; those 60 and older will be admitted for $2. Lots to see and do at the Scioto County Fair. “For our admission price, there are so many things to do. A lot of folks like to come out and get something to eat at lunch time. Some folks will check out all the vendors we have and see what kind of information they can pickup,” Seaman said. “This is exciting for the community. We get a good turnout locally and we also have a lot of folks that come in from out of town. You’ll see people from all over, who really enjoy coming back to our fair.” He said if you compare the price of admission to other fairs, the entertainment or rides might not be File photo included. “We try to keep it as simple as we can and try to keep costs down. It is an expensive thing to put together, but we feel like it’s a fair price for a fun day of entertainment,” Seaman said.

The schedule of grandstand entrainment events are as follows: Monday, Aug. 10 will feature motocross at 8 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 11 will feature the Willis Clan, a family of musicians known for their hit new television show, at 8 p.m. The Willis Clan is one of the groups that the Scioto County Fair Board is really excited about bringing to the county and President Robert Seaman claims the group is relevant to today. “Since the Willis Clan is on television with their new show, I feel like they will be very relevant and well received,” Seaman said. The Willis Clan is described as a family of musicians, dancers, athletes, writers, and artists. According to the group’s website, “They merge their Irish roots with other music and dance genres to create a unique blend of the old and new.” The Willis Clan has won regional and national dance titles and placed in world competitions for both music and dance as well as having competed on Americas Got Talent.

They have also received various award nominations, and more. Thursday, Aug. 13 will feature the annual guest Circus Continental at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. “The circus is always a pretty big deal and I think it is my favorite,” Seaman said. “I’m all about the circus, because it is family oriented and we put on two shows to allow everyone the chance to visit, because everyone seems to enjoy it. It is just a great time all the way around and it always has been.” Friday, Aug. 14 will feature the country music group Lone Star at 8 p.m. Lone Star is the biggest names to hit the stage this year, having years of experience in the music industry.

Lonestar has amassed RIAA-certified sales in excess of ten million album units since their national launch in 1995 and achieved ten #1 country hits including No News, Come Crying To Me, and their crossover smash Amazed (which was also #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, the first record since 1983’s Islands in the Stream to top both charts).” The hit band also has two major awards under their name, including the 1999 ACM Single of the Year and the 2001 CMA Vocal Group of the Year. Saturday, Aug. 15 wraps up the festivities by Good Luck 4-H Members featuring the annual demolition derby, which is set to start at 5 p.m. “With acts continuing to grow, it just seems entertainment gets more and more expensive each year,” Seaman said. “I think we have a pretty good lineup this year.” The fair’s website said that all show times for the grandstand performances are approximate. There will also be local talent performing at the entrance of the south gate. “We like try to bring some local folks in and give them a chance to be heard and also provide entertainment for the guests,” Seaman said. “This also goes along with the marching bands.” The Scioto County Fair website gives the following schedule for the local talent: Monday, both at 5 p.m. and 7 p.m., Summit 332 will perform.

Apostolic Gospel Church in Portsmouth, Emmanuel United Methodist Church in Lucasville, Christ’s Sanctuary Church in Sciotoville, and Cornerstone United Methodist in Portsmouth, have all operated fair booths for number of years. Robert Coffey, Jr. pastor of Apostolic Gospel Church in Portsmouth, said their church has hosted a booth at the Scioto County Fair for about 16 years, and they enjoy doing so. “We bought the booth about 15 or 16 years ago from, what was at the time, Blue Run United Methodist Church, so we just took over it, and having been taking part ever since,” Coffey said. Coffey said all of the meals that they sell are homemade, and entails much preparation before ever reaching the fair booth. “All of our meals are homemade. We spend a whole Saturday making the meals in our fellowship gym. People don’t realize that it takes so much more than just setting up at the fair. There is a lot of preparation that goes in before that,” he said. “We serve chicken noodle dinners, and the other half of our table we do burgers and hot dogs and barbecued beef and fish sandwiches, and french fries, and things such as this.” Proceeds from the booth typically goes to the ministries of the church. “Part of the money we put toward our youth, and ladies ministries,” he said. “We use the funds towards special projects that may be going on at the church, such as upkeep, and something in which we typically we just don’t have the money to do. So, basically it is to help the church, and to help to meet some needs in the community.” Extension Educator 4-H Youth Development Fair week is almost here! For those youth who participate in the more than 50 4-H community clubs in Scioto County, the fair is the culmination of months of hard work and preparation. Youth in the 4-H Program not only take and exhibit livestock projects, but also increase their knowledge and skills in a myriad of other subjects. There are more than 200 projects that 4-H’ers may take. Additionally, 4-H members learn life skills that help them develop into competent, caring and contributing adults. The unique thing about 4-H is that many times youth don’t realize they are improving their skillset until years later. Although many people think the 4-H members learn how to raise an animal, there is much more involved in the process. The youth learn to be responsible, to keep good records, and to be organized. The also improve their public speaking and interview skills. They learn to work together, and they also learn to give back to their communities. A study done by Tufts University showed that youth involved in positive youth development(4-H) predicts both and increase in community contributions and lessened likelihood of risk/problem behaviors. For example, involvement in Grade 5 predicted higher youth contributions and lower risk behaviors and depression at Grade 6. All of this is made possible through the hard work of more than 200 trained volunteers in Scioto County. Those volunteers help teach and guide the young people through their projects. So, as you walk through the barns and 4-H Building at the Fair, when you see all the kids and adults having fun, take time to appreciate all the hard work that has gone into their projects. They have put hours of work into the projects and hours of service into the community. Remember that 4-H is more than a paycheck that these kids get for selling an animal at the fair. It is about learning, making memories and giving back to the community. See you at the Scioto County Fair! By Portia Williams portiawilliams@civitasmedia.com Courtesy photo Members of Apostolic Gospel Church in Portsmouth volunteering time at their church booth during the 2014 Scioto County Fair “Our goal is not just to sell food and make money, but we also consider ourselves out there doing ministry, and reaching the community. We try to befriend people, and somehow through that, maybe someone will come to Christ,” Coffey said. “It also helps the members of our church, we have a lot of fun serving and working together, and we look forward to it each year.” Doug Shugert, youth Pastor and member of Cornerstone UMC, said they have a wide range of volunteers to govern their fair booth. “We have third graders up to senior citizens that usually help at the fair,” Shugert said. “Typically, we have about 150 volunteers all together. We do four different shifts, and the youth usually cover the fourth shift. We offer hamburgers, chicken, french fries, meat loaf, beans and corn bread and some more items.” He said he and the volunteers from Cornerstone really look forward to working the booth each year. “This is something that we always look forward to, and can actually be a lot of fun. In the past we used some of the funds to go toward the pay-off of our new building,” Shugert said. “Other church projects that we’ve used the money we raised from the fair is the new bell tower, and the new youth room in the church. At this time, we do not have a specific project marked for the funds.” Members of Christ’s Sanctuary Church and Emmanuel United Methodist Church were not available to speak with The Portsmouth Daily Times at the time of the interview.

Stroll through the 4-H Building to see the county’s 4-H club booths that showcase the projects from youth who exhibited during 4-H prefair judging. These projects could be anything from a pet rabbit to scrapbooking, cooking, sewing, archery and more. Those youth must be judged prior to our county fair to qualify and exhibit at the Ohio State Fair. All of the livestock shows will be posted outside the Junior Fair office and by the ring in the middle of the barn. These youth work with these animals anywhere from six months prior to over a year before the fair taking care of them. It is great to be able to see that come together in the ring. Thursday immediately following the Small Animal Sale will be the Barnyard Olympics, which is organized by a great group of volunteers. Friday evening is full of awards and intense showmanship! The top showman from each specie will compete in the ring for the title of Showman of Showmen. Each participant must show an animal of each specie then these scores are added together to present the overall award. The 4-H Program also recognizes 4-H Career Achievement Awards, which go to those senior 4-H’ers who have participated for 13 or 14 years, and the herdsman awards for each specie. Saturday is the large animal sale! Those youth who exhibited a market livestock project complete their hard work of producing a quality animal by selling during the Junior Fair Livestock Auction. The Scioto County Junior Fair Livestock Sale will be held on Saturday, August 15, 2015. It will begin at 10 a.m. at the Scioto County Fairgrounds in Lucasville. The order of sale will be steer, goats, swine and lambs. 2015 Scioto County 4-H Gilt Show Results December Gilt- 1st Place, Grace Emnett; 2nd Place, Lindsey Allen; 3rd Place, Eric Allen; 4th Place, Addy Sowards.
