Flower Pails at Fair We would like to continue the tradition of making our fairgrounds look extra special during the week of fair by decorating 5 gallon buckets with flowers and bringing them on set up day.

Please encourage your club members to stop by and talk to the radio stations and let everyone know how great the Montgomery County Fair is!
3 Fair Entry! As you all know, this year we will be all paperless! All entries will be done through the new program called Fair Entry. Fair Entry works side by side with 4-H Online information. Entries for ALL livestock, clothing events, communication events, and table setting events were due online by 4:30pm on July 1st in addition to all beef entry payments. Static exhibits will ALL also be entered online. This will be open from June 1, 2015 to July 11, This will require you to identify the project you plan to bring. When you arrive at judging day you will simply pick up a completed, printed out tag for your project and attach it! No more waiting in line to fill out a bunch of tags! Letters have been sent out to each family with directions on how to sign up. These directions are also available on 4-H Online. Please note that all FFA Members will have a different set of directions than 4-H Members. Please know that this program is new to both you and us. We are working our best to assist all families as best possible. If you have questions, please don t hesitate to me hpeck@iastate.edu, give me a call or stop in the office for assistance! Hallie Iowa State Fair ALL Iowa State Fair entries and payments were due to the Extension Office by July 1, Please note this will be an additional entry than the county fair Fair Entry process. Ak-Sar-Ben Livestock Show All market beef, sheep, swine, and goats were required to be nominated during weigh in s for the Ak-Sar-Ben Livestock Show. June 15th feeder calf and breeding beef nominations due to the Extension Office. August 10th all entries due to the Extension Office to final Ak-Sar-Ben entries.
4 Livestock Exhibitors Barn and stalling assignments will be posted on the barns for set up and check in days. All sale animals will be confirmed at the time of check in. Any animals being scratched from the sale after the weigh in has been completed will cost you $20.00 an entry. No add ons after the check in will be allowed. Auction all exhibitors will draw a number at check-in time once all paperwork has been turned in. This will be your number in the sale. Each exhibitor must complete an Iowa 4-H Animal Care and Management Disclosure Statement (Drug Affidavit) for all livestock. These must be completed and given to the veterinarian checking in livestock. The veterinarians will have the final call for all animals being entered. There will be a mandatory exhibitor meeting immediately after each livestock check-in has been completed. If you do not attend the exhibitor meeting, you will not receive premiums! All exhibitors (excluding beef) are responsible for bedding their own livestock pens and cages. Rabbits, sheep, goats, and swine will need to bring their own shavings. For all events please check the fair book for check in times, show times, rules, and classes. DO NOT clean the barns early!! Pens in the new livestock pavilion MUST be cleaned out MONDAY ONLY! Static Exhibits With the new fair entry program our static judging day will be run a little differently. Please arrive at your given club time. These are listed in the fair book on page 35. The club leader that is present for each club will be given completed entry cards for each exhibitors project that were signed up on Fair Entry (by July 11th deadline). These cards will be taken with your project and given to the judge. Comment writers will write the judges comments on the back of this card. This card will then be taped to your project write up or exhibit and taken on to be displayed in your clubs booth. There will be no additional sheets to keep track of or carry around. Each exhibit will only have the completed printed exhibit card given to you on judging day by your club leader. Don t forget that all static exhibits require a write up. For photography and the poster contest, the write up is the form you will need to complete and attach to your project. Clover Kids! Clover Kids showcase will be open to all Clover Kids in grade 1-3 in Montgomery County. Clover Kids will have the opportunity to discuss their showcase items with a caring adult as items are entered. Clover Kids will be required to wear 4-H uniform (page 10 in the fair book) during the judging event. Showcase items will be entered on Tuesday, July 14th, at the assigned time (fair book page 32). All showcase items will be on display in the Clover Kids booth until release time on Sunday at 12:30pm. All items will receive a participation ribbon; no premium money will be given for these items. For showcase item categories see page 46 of the fair book. Clover Kids will not be required to pre enter exhibits and will complete an entry tag for each project when they arrive at judging. If you need a fair book, have ordered a t-shirt or need to buy an extra these are available at the Extension Office.
5 Hello from the 4-H/ FFA Concession Stand Committee, We would like to express our excitement for the upcoming 2015 Montgomery County Fair! We are excited to announce that that we are continuing to improve the Concession Stand. This year we received a grant to replace the roof and add permanent fixtures. Along with the new improvements, we are going to introduce a few new menu items. To list a few, for a nice cool refreshment we will have slushies, for a great anytime snack we will have buttery popcorn and for a sugar snack we will have Cotton Candy. In addition to our new menu items and building, we would also like to remind you of an alternative purchasing option we are now offering for anyone to use. We will be selling food punch cards at $10 and $20 values. To be clear, the punch cards will not be the only way to buy food from the concession stand. Anyone can still pay with cash anytime. However, if you are a frequent customer at the food stand throughout fair week, you may find it more convenient to use a punch card instead of cash. You may purchase a card at the Extension Office before fair or at the concession stand anytime during fair. It s very simply to use. After purchasing either a $10 or a $20 value card, take it to the food stand and present the card to the cashier to pay for your food/drinks, and they will punch the amount that you spent from the card. Please be aware that this card is non-refundable, meaning that if it is lost, stolen, or not completely used by the end of fair, we will not refund the remaining value. We hope that you take advantage of the new changes we are implementing with our concession stand. Thank you for your support; we look forward to seeing you at the 2015 Montgomery County Fair! Thank you, 4-H/ FFA Concession Stand Committee 4-H PLEDGE I PLEDGE MY HEAD TO CLEARER THINKING, MY HEART TO GREATER LOYALTY, MY HANDS TO LARGER SERVICE, AND MY HEALTH TO BETTER LIVING, FOR MY CLUB, MY COMMUNITY, MY COUNTRY, AND MY WORLD.
