It’s with sincere appreciation that we acknowledge her unequalled contributions to agriculture and education and the well being of the state’s citizens. State Senator Charlotte Burks is a woman of strong character, with an incredible sense of duty and honor. If you look up the meaning of the word integrity you will see her picture there. Strong family and farm ties have distinguished her life and in the end she says, “I am so blessed to have served you.” Senator Burks is a native of Jackson County. She owns a farm in Monterey, TN where she raised her family and has resided for nearly 50 years. She has three daughters, 10 grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. The only occupation she has ever known is that of a farmer. She was elected to the Tennessee State Senate in 1998. During her time in the State Senate, she served as the 1st vice chair in the Senate Ethics Committee, 2nd vice chair in the Senate Commerce and Labor Committee, is a member of the Senate Education Committee and the Senate Energy, Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee. “It has been an honor to represent the people of the 15th Senatorial District over the years,” Burks stated. “I never imagined that I would ever serve in the state legislature, but it gave me a sense of direction and purpose that I needed after the loss of Tommy. It was a responsibility that I took seriously, and I am satisfied that I served the people of this district with honesty and integrity.” FAIR BOARD TEAM “The rich history of the Putnam County Fair is evident by the foundation upon which we have laid the framework and program of the 89th Putnam County Agricultural & Industrial Fair.

Randy Porter, Putnam County Executive Entry Form Tennessee Commissioner of Agriculture The Honorable Julius Johnson, Commissioner “Fairs are a wonderful way for families to bond & create life-long memories while experiencing the best our farms and communities have to offer. Our Tennessee fairs have a positive impact on local economies as well as on agriculture and education.” “Your county fair is one of the largest contributors to the economic development in your area. When you consider all the people who bring produce and animals to exhibit at the fair you are reaching those who feed America – farmers, gardeners and businesses who are the backbone of this country’s agriculture production.” “Be sure you make your local elected officials aware of the importance of the county fair and agriculture in your area – it’s good business today.” Annually, almost 3 million visitors attend county, regional and state fairs in TN. TN Fairs generated more than $12 million in gross receipts last year. More than 14,700 volunteers from 63 fairs devoted valuable time, resources & energy to fairs which had more than 130,000 agricultural exhibits, & more than 32,000 agricultural exhibitors showcasing livestock, farm crops and other agricultural exhibits. Tennessee Association of Fairs Agricultural fairs are a tradition in the beautiful state of Tennessee. When you travel the roads of Tennessee the beauty that lines the country roads include some of the most impressive of agricultural scenes, from rolling pastures covered in a variety of livestock, and field crops to beautiful country homes with garden areas, chicken pens and generations of farmers. The education taught from generation to generation is thankfully what continues to feed America. Where families come together to celebrate life, you can join your neighbors for a variety of entertainment, show your community pride and learn from the endless education of your county fair. Plan now to support your local county fair – it’s an American and Tennessee tradition. The Tennessee Association of Fairs fosters the improvement and continuing legacy of county fairs in Tennessee. Officers of the TAF include: Ruthie Jeans, President; Brenda Pierce- Williams, 1st Vice President; Shelly Strickland, 2nd Vice President, Lisa Robinson, 3rd Vice President Emily Pitcock, Executive Secretary; Julie Thompson, Asst. Executive Secretary, & Lynne Williams, Fair Administrator, TN Dept. of Agriculture. The Putnam County Fair Board contributes almost 10,000 hours to planning and conducting the fair each year at a value of $210,000. Additionally, 1050 volunteers contribute another 9,077 hours at a value of $220,026 for a grand total of 17,627 hours valued at $427,278.

Enclosed is a summary of Tennessee Fair Regulations health requirements for livestock at fairs and exhibitions. Special Comments: 1. It is expected that all exhibitors will bring only healthy animals to fairs and exhibitions. Although state and federal animal health officials will be performing some inspections, fair officials are responsible for ensuring that all animals entering fairs for exhibition are in overall good health and are accompanied by a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection. Animals showing clinical signs of contagious disease should be sent home immediately. Violations should be reported to the state veterinarian or his agent. 2. Certificate(s) of Veterinary Inspection are to accompany all animal(s) to the respective shows with the exception of in-state Tennessee equine and poultry. In-state Tennessee equine six (6) months of age and older must have a negative Equine Infectious Anemia test within the preceding twelve (12) months. Poultry assembled at shows or exhibitions should be accompanied by evidence of a negative test for Pullorum-Typhoid within 90 days, or be tested on-site prior to exhibition following strict biosecurity procedures, or originate directly from a flock which has been certified as Pullorum-Tyhpoid Clean under the Tennessee Poultry Improvement Plan. As part of increased awareness and surveillance for Avian Influenza and other poultry diseases, all bird’s physical appearance should be assessed at the time testing is conducted. 3. Health certificates issued in satisfaction of these Tennessee Fair Regulations shall be good for 90 days for Tennessee livestock only. 4. Any “chick chain” birds that have been commingled with birds of unknown disease status must test negative for Pullorum-Typhoid prior to exhibition. 5. Please note that exhibition requirements for out-of-state livestock are the same as regular import requirements. 6. Warts and ringworm are considered contagious and infectious diseases and are permissible exclusions only if considered inactive by the issuing veterinarian and noted as such on the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection. 7. Scabies, contagious ecthyma (soremouth), footrot, cutaneous fungal and bacterial infections (i.e. club lamb disease, caseous lymphadenitis) are considered contagious and infectious diseases, and are permissible exclusions only if considered inactive by the issuing veterinarian and noted as such on the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection.

The Tennessee Century Farms Programs documents and recognizes farms owned by the same family for at least 100 years. To date, nearly 1400 farms have been certified. The Center for Historic Preservation maintains the Century Farm database of information and photographs, most of which is based on applications supplied by the farm families. Tennessee Agriculture: A Century Farms Perspective was published by the Tennessee Department of Agriculture and the Center in 1986. The book-length study includes descriptions of each farm and both color and black and white photographs. The Century Farms Program established shared interests among the Center for Historic Preservation, local historical societies, county extension offices, city and county governments, and chambers of commerce. The bond was strengthened with the traveling exhibit, “ Tennessee’s Century Farms: Change and Continuity over 200 Years of Farming.” Funded by the Center and the Tennessee Humanities Council, it toured the state in 1988-89. Taking rural preservation work in new directions, Center staff successfully nominated several historic family farms to the National Register of Historic Places. This work paved the way for the innovative Historic Family Farms of Middle Tennessee multiple property nomination. Considered a model for rural preservation, this was the first thematic nomination in the country to deal with historic farmsteads. The CHP, working with the Tennessee Department of Agriculture and the Tennessee Historical Commission, serves as a clearing house of information on the Tennessee Century Farms Program, National Register Documentation of farms, and as national leader in documentation and interpretation of historic family farms.

The Board of the Putnam County Fair – in cooperation with Putnam County Archives -- began to assemble some of that history this year in calling on the public to help us by sharing pictures they have of past fairs. The public has responded generously by sharing photos, posters, and artifacts from many of the eighty-eight (88) fairs held before this one. We hope when people stop and recall this year’s fair it will be with the same joy and enthusiasm we remember past fairs and with the same care we have tried to create this historical display and the 89th Putnam County Fair. Be sure you stop and visit the History Exhibit of the Putnam County Fair this year. Benny Carol Phillips Mason exhibited the Champion Black Angus Cow at a fair in the 60s. She and her husband live near the Bangham Community today and are antique car buffs. 35 6.
