Extras: For those attending the fair for the first time here are a few other pointers. If the
member has created projects at home or school and would like to submit them for display and competition they need a fair booklet
and fill out the paper work for the static exhibit. There is more to the fair than the horseshow. Members can exhibit
art, beef, cage & game birds, cloverbud, crafts, dairy, dairy goat, displays, dog, environmental awareness, feline,
flower, food, food preservation, honey, needlework, photography, poultry, rabbit & Cavy, sewing, sheep, swine, vegetable,
fruit and field crops, wool, workshop and writing. There is also an apple pie contest with the rules listed in the fair
book. Static exhibit entries earn money according to the danish rule system and how they score. Depending on how many items
you enter and how well you do you can earn a lot through your 4H work.
Activities that can be enjoyed at the fair are the corn husking, pony rides, checking out all the displays and exhibits,
moonwalk, hay rides, storytelling, model railroad, Smokey Bear, watermelon eating contest, chicken BBQ, auction, Discovery
Museum, Lizzie the clown, paint a face, antique engines, Michelle's Menagerie, Marcia Williams Owls and much much more.
You must trim and shave the horse's face, muzzle and legs and make sure that shoes are up to date. Manes should be free flowing
and neat or pulled.
