Madison Schlegel Miss Grundy County Fair Queen 2015

Hello, I am Madison Schlegel. As your 2015 Miss Grundy County Fair Queen, I would like to welcome you to the 112th Grundy County Fair. I have been attending the fair since I was seven years old and every year I am just as excited for this fun filled weekend. With such an action packed weekend there is not one dull moment. From the races, livestock, fireworks, vendors, carnival, and entertainment all the way to the delicious food, the Grundy County Fair is home to traditions and fun for everyone. This is a weekend to spend time with family and friends and make memories that will last a lifetime. In my year as queen, I’ve made appearances at the Corn Festival Parade, lunch with the governor, Illinois State Fair 4-H events, the parade of lights, and the Northern Zone meeting, and competing in the 2016 Miss Illinois County Fair Queen pageant in Springfield. I want to thank the Grundy County Fair Board, I cannot express the amount of gratitude that I have for them and being lucky enough to have their support. With that, I would like to welcome you to the 2016 Grundy County Fair and I hope this weekend is filled with endless joy. Sincerely, Madison Schlegel 2015 Miss Grundy County Fair Queen

Each year, the Grundy County Agricultural District Fair selects the exhibitor that, in their opinion, best exemplifies the qualities that help to improve our fairs, our livestock and our lives in general. These qualities are best demonstrated starting with the accuracy and neatness of entry forms; by the courtesy and help given to the “girls in the office”; by their cooperation, sportsmanship, attitude and conduct in the show arenas; by the condition of and care given to their animals; and by the cleanliness and neatness of their pen or stall areas. They share their knowledge, not only with Fair Visitors and Spectators, but also with other Exhibitors. These noted exhibitors have set a standard of competition and style that should serve as an example for all.

Many Thanks to All of Our Exhibitors You Are The Greatest!!! The Grundy County Fair Officers, Superintendents, and the “Girls in the Office” 17

Special Instructions For All STEER, MARKET & WEIGHT CLASS ANIMAL EXHIBITORS Enter your animals only as shown within Department Premium Listing. All Class Weight Splits will be made only after all animals within that department have been weighed or the posted weigh-in time has past and scales are closed. Animals will be weighed only once. It is highly recommended that exhibitor be present during weigh-in. If exhibitor cannot be present he must appoint and empower an agent to act on his behalf and inform his Department Superintendent of such. In the case of animals being in both Open and Junior Shows the same weight class carries both shows. For example, an animal that is split into a weight class such as BARROW, HEAVY IN THE OPEN SHOW WILL ALSO BE BARROW, HEAVY IN THE JUNIOR SHOW. This rule applies to STEERS, LAMBS, HOGS OR GOATS. Class weight split determination is by computer. In pair classes each exhibitor will make his own personal choice of animal pairings and give that choice to the Department Superintendent. The pair weight will be the total combined weight of the individuals as chosen by the exhibitor. Once paired there will be no changes in pairings. Pairings will remain the same in both Open and Junior Shows. Any animal brought to the show ring without a legible Weigh-In ID Number or with a Weigh-In ID Number that has been modified will not be allowed a premium. The Department Superintendent shall oversee and supervise the weigh-in. His decision at the scale is final. Class Weight Splits will be made in Secretary’s Office and shall be based on Open Show. Once all Weight Splits are completed, animal weight class assignments will be posted prior to show.

Horses are not allowed in pony classes and ponies are barred from horse classes. Registration Papers in hand prevail over actual measurement. In the case of grade, nonregistered animals the actual measurement will be the defining factor. For this show any animal UNDER FIFTYSIX (56) INCHES will be considered a PONY. 7 - The Secretary’s Office assigns an EXHIBITOR NUMBER for each exhibitor. This number must be prominently displayed upon the back of the person showing the animal at all times the animal is in the show ring. Be sure the correct number is displayed, as NO CHANGES will be made in the Judges books once the class has left the show ring. 8 - The Grundy County Fair will not be held responsible for any loss, personal injury or damage to any person, animal or for any article of any kind or nature that may be lost, destroyed or in any way damaged. The Fair Board reserves the right to cancel any entry or entries, any class(es) or cancel any award(s) without claim for damages. The decision of the Judge is final. Exhibitors are warned that any act of discourtesy or disobedience to any show official on the part of owner, groom, rider or driver will disqualify the entry for any premiums. The Grundy County Fair reserves unto itself the right to remove any owner, groom, rider, driver or the animal without being liable for any compensation or damages. 9 - As classes may not be shown in the exact order as shown in the premium listing, the exhibitor alone shall be fully responsible for being aware of when their respective class is due in show ring. When final call to class is made the ring gate will close and will not reopen until class is finished. All exhibitors must be ready for their class by the time the previous class ends. Failure to do so will disqualify the entry with no refund allowed or any responsibility on the part of the show officials or the Grundy County Fair. 10 - Registration papers are not required on any animal entered within Class R. Registration Papers will be defining factor for size questions. 11 - No pony or horse may double back in the same class with a different rider or driver with the exception of those animals used in R3 Therapeutic Riding Competition. 12 - The Grundy County Fair Reserves the right to change the Order of Show at any time, for any reason. 13 - Official Announcements made in the Show Ring Shall Prevail Over Printed Materials.
