However, exhibitors are cautioned that the current rules and regulations of the Jefferson County Fair, as interpreted by the Fair Board, take precedence over this listing due to the possibility of typographical error or inadvertent omission. In the event of conflict between the general rules and the special rules governing the various departments, the special rules will take precedence. The Board reserves the final and absolute right to interpret these rules and regulations and arbitrarily settle and determine all matters, questions and differences in regard thereto, or otherwise arising out of, connected with or incident to the Fair. The Board reserves the right to amend or add to these rules, as it, in its judgment, may deem advisable. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. Entries In all departments, unless otherwise specified, are open to the world.

Prior to the judging, the superintendent will inspect all exhibits in his department to determine if they are entered in the class in which they should compete.

Jefferson County Junior Market Sale Sale Time: 6:30 p.m. Friday, August 19th Place: Walker Livestock Show Arena How to buy at the Market Sale: Buying at the market sale is done by offering the highest bid in the auction on the animal in question. Once the animal is purchased, the buyer informs the “runner” whether he wants to keep it or resell it. If the bidder keeps the animal, it is their responsibility to get the animal to a packing plant.. Of course, should the buyer decide to keep the animal, he pays the full purchase price. If the bidder decides to resell the animal, he pays only the difference between the floor price and the purchase price. Another way that you can “buy” at the market sale is to put a boost on an individual’s animal. You decide how much you would like to boost; $10, $20, $100 etc. Make checks out to Jefferson County Fair or take cash to Jefferson County Extension office before the auction or pay the night of the sale. The livestock clubs of Jefferson County are actively progressing. During the past several months at our 4-H meetings, members have been taught efficient livestock management. We have learned about different feeds, basic nutrition and rations for weight gain. We have worked with our animals and each child did a demonstration. Our members have raised their market animals for the Jefferson County Junior Market Sale on Friday, August 19th. We try to have our animals tamed, groomed, as well as finished. Remember, “Our members are our Nation’s Future Food Producers.” We would certainly appreciate your support at our Market Sale. We would like to thank Market Sale buyers for their continued support of our youth. Buyer numbers will be available at the night of the sale. 26 2014 MARKET SALE SUPPORTERS!
