When you attend this year’s county fair, you will find several new improvements have been going on over the summer!
Large fans are being placed in the Show Barn and Livestock buildings, a new swine loading dock has been added, screenings have improved the Avery E. Marshall building, and the Exhibit Halls will have a new look!!
Many thanks to the Rabbit, Poultry and Horse project members ,leaders, and families for all their hard work in getting the screenings in place in the Avery E. Marshall building. And to Jeff Monson for all his work on the swine loading dock.
The Exhibit Hall renovations have been made possible through the generous donations from the Joan Woodman Orton McCollum Foundation, Richland Co. Dairy Breakfast, Knights of Columbus, Foggy Bottom Woodworks, the Richland County Fairgrounds Improvement Committee, as well as the Exhibit Hall Display Committee and the Dave Jelinek and Kevin Jelinek families for all their hard work and volunteer hours!
As we begin to look to the Richland County Fair, we feel it is important to notify all swine exhibitors about the changes to the upcoming fair. Due to the concern of PEDv, we have decided to make the swine show terminal. What this means is that no pigs that come to the fair will leave on an exhibitors trailer, they will only be put on a trailer designated by the Richland County Fair to go to four lockers or Equity for slaughter. ALL PIGS BROUGHT TO THE FAIR WILL HAVE TO GO DIRECTLY TO SLAUGHTER FROM THE FAIR ON SUNDAY ON A FAIR DESIGNATED TRAILER.
Due to the number of junior exhibitors, the Richland Locker only has room for each junior to send ONE pig to their facility. If your pig goes through the sale and the buyer wants the animal, that will be the one pig to go to Richland Center. If your pig does not go through the sale or the buyer does not want it, the junior exhibitor can choose to send one of their pigs to Richland Center or to send their pig(s) to another location. The other three locations are Gays Mills (Kickapoo Locker), Straka (Plain), and the Meat Market (Baraboo). These lockers are not taking appointments for exhibitors privately; the arrangements for appointments for the fair hogs will be made through the Richland County Fair. [Read more…]
