The 2010 county fair will feature old favorites and a few new surprises By RENEE COLEMAN Staff Writer
LISBON — For 165 years Columbiana County residents have been making the short trek to Lisbon to see all that the county fair has to offer. During this time, the fair has evolved from a simple event where awards were given for the best yoke of oxen to a week-long extravaganza full of concerts, demolition derbies and more. With each passing year events were added, removed or improved, occurrences that also applied to the fairgrounds. This continues today with fair officials continuously adding improvements or expanding the grounds as well as its entertainment and agricultural programs. Recent expansion includes the altering of Gate C to access Vista Drive rather than Morris Street. As for the fair’s entertainment, there was a time when a main stage act was absent, leaving derbies and tractor pulls to carry the weight. But the fair’s musical entertainment track record which, once boasted such acts as Dolly Parton, Porter Wagnor, Tanya Tucker and Tex Ritter, got a major reboot with a performance by the Povertyneck Hillbillies in 2007. Since then acts such as Jake Owen, Lorrie Morgan and Chuck Wicks have
appeared. This year the fair will continue its tradition by bringing in Confederate Railroad best known for the song “Trashy Women.” Confederate Railroad will take the stage at 8 p.m. Tuesday. In conjunction with the concert, the fair will host its first ever Bike Night beginning at 4:30 p.m. Judging on seven different classes Morning Journal/Patti Schaeffer will be at 6:30 p.m. All riders will receive Recent expansion to the fairgrounds includes the altering of Gate C to free admission but must use the main gate. access Vista Drive rather than Morris Street. Passengers will pay the gate fee. The fair will also feature crowd favorites: truck and tractor pulls, demolition derbies and the combine derby, which continues to grow in popularity. Rounding out the grandstand entertainment for 2010 is the Thursday night A-Bar Rodeo Production event. Area riders can signup for the rodeo on Monday. Those entering the bull riding competition must call 336-861-2219 between 8-10 p.m. Only the first 25 will be taken. Girls wanting to enter the barrel racing competition should call 419326-1066 between 6-8 p.m. The first 20 riders will be accepted. Another attraction is wood carver Luree Magee. Magee will perform for fair goers four times a day Tuesday through Sunday. So as the saying goes: “Wheel on down to the Columbiana County Fair.”

Four will be inducted into county Agriculture Hall of Fame LISBON — Four individuals will be inducted into the Columbiana County Agricultural Hall of Fame on day two of the Columbiana County Fair. The contributions of John L. Denny, Charles J. Gause, Galen H. Greenisen and Fred H. Johnson will be recognized Johnson in ceremonies at 10:30 a.m. Aug. 3 in the new Arts and Crafts Building next to the fair office. The enshrinees’ families will also be honored and framed biographical sketches of each individual will be unveiled. The hall of fame enshrined its first class in 2000. Awards are presented posthumously.
Fred H. Johnson 1916-2007
In the hills of s o u t h e r n Columbiana County, one man did more to advance the Angus cattle breed than probably any other individual in the breed’s history worldwide. Fred H. Johnson, of Summitville, attended Denny Penn State, then served in the U.S. Infantry from 1941 to 1945, earning a Purple Heart and Bronze Star for his service. He built an innovative tile manufacturing company with his brother, Pete, and threw that same business passion into developing a herd of Angus cattle with unparalleled genetics. He is also credited as one of the first in the country to develop and
breed Belted Galloway cattle. But it was the Angus breed that Johnson loved, so much so that he co-founded the Certified Angus Beef branded beef program in 1978. Today, the multinational organization sells 1 million pounds of Angus beef every three hours. Johnson purGreenisen chased his first Angus cattle in 1949 and later expanded Summitcrest Farms to include ranches in Iowa and Nebraska. He pioneered and promoted animal record keeping, performance and genetic testing, and emphasized carcass evaluations and was one of the first to enroll in the National Sire Evaluation program. Cattle and semen from Summitcrest have been sold in more than 45 states and more than eight countries. Johnson was a past director of the American Angus Association and was appointed by the U.S. secretary of agriculture to the National Beef Promotion and Research

Board, serving as the board’s first treasurer and second chairman. He was inducted into the American Angus Heritage Foundation Hall of Fame, the Ohio Agricultural Hall of Fame, and was inducted into the prestigious Saddle & Sirloin Club’s Gallery Hall of Fame. In 2007, the National CatGause tlemen’s Foundation presented Johnson with its National Beef Industry Vision Award. The Johnson family was also named one of eight Cattle Businesses of the Century. He also served on the Ohio Exposition Commission, which oversees the Ohio State Fair. A dedicated community member, Johnson served on the board of the Citizens Banking Co. and its successor, Sky Bank, for more than 35 years. Locally, he had served on the school board, local volunteer fire department and as elder in the Bethesda Presbyterian Church.

Confederate Railroad offers a mix of sensitivity, honky-tonk and fun Few acts have carved as distinctive a niche in modern musical history as Confederate Railroad. With their high-energy combination of honky-tonk rockers, sensitive ballads, and offbeat humor, they have created a unique identity that has brought them chart success, multi-platinum sales and continued popularity as a road band. Versatility, likeability and a willingness to stretch boundaries are all part of the mix, but if there is a formula, not even they can put their finger on it. “I don’t think I have any more of a clue now than I did when we started,” laughs founder/frontman Danny Shirley. “I know that if you start thinking, ‘Is radio going to like this”’ or ‘Is this going to offend anybody?’ that it really waters things down, so I don’t try to second-guess anybody. What I do is look for songs I like—that seems to work best.” Nearly five million albums later, there is no doubt that it works. Songs like “Queen Of Memphis,” “Trashy Women,” “Jesus And Mama,” and “Daddy Never Was The Cadillac Kind” became major hits and established Confederate Railroad as a key part of country music’s landscape during the genre’s expansion of the ‘90s. The accolades kicked off with the Academy of Country Music’s Best
Tickets Tickets for the Confederate Railroad concert are $10 for track and grandstand reserved seating. All other grandstand scheduled events are $5 for both bleacher and grandstand seats.

New Group award in 1993 and have included a Grammy nomination, and a host of nominations from the Country Music Association and the British Country Music Foundation. For guys who started as a Georgia bar band, it was the stuff of dreams. “I remember saying when we got our first platinum album,” says Shirley, “’At this point, our success has pretty much surpassed our talent, and from this point on, everything else is just icing on the cake.’” The latest swirl of icing is the band’s new Audium Records CD, Unleashed, a microcosm of everything Shirley and company do best.

mention good-natured new assaults on decorum and political correctness. The rollicking “I’m Diggin’ It,” as well as “White Trash With Money” and “That ‘R’ Word” have attitude to spare, and show that time has not dulled the edge of the band’s skewed and witty worldview.

Special project honors Columbiana County’s war veterans By RENEE COLEMAN
member Holly Bear, Columbiana. To close the ceremony the crowd will be asked to join in the singing of “God Bless the U.S.A.” by Lee Greenwood. Listed are those veterans who will be honored during the dedication ceremony:
Staff Writer
LISBON — For years farming families have been honored at the Columbiana County Fair, but during the upcoming fair the fair board will also honor the county’s many veterans. These veterans are being honored with the introduction of the fair’s newest textile department entry class, “Purple Hearts for Veterans.” The new class was the creative idea of Sharon Cope, fair board director and arts and crafts committee member. Cope had worked on a similar project while working at the Canfield Presbyterian Church. “I worked with Pastor Chuck Moffett on coming up with a veteran’s project for Veteran’s Day,” Cope said. “We had over 85 quilts which were sent to Walter Reed Army Hospital in Washington, D.C.” With the fair just days away they have received around 40 quilts. “We’ve had a very good response. This is the first time we tried this so we were hoping for 40 to 50 quilts.” The response has led to the fair board members making plans to instate the entry class as a yearly event. “We do plan to continue with other patriotic themes, maybe honoring all veterans,” Cope said.

County veterans are being honored with the introduction of the fair’s newest textile department entry class, “Purple Hearts for Veterans.”
Cope has also received interest from other fairs, wishing to “borrow” the Purple Heart theme for 2011. “I received a call from the Trumbull County Fair saying how they like it and want to use it to honor Trumbull County vets.” The quilts from both the senior and junior division will be on display throughout the fair. On Sunday the 13 blue ribbon entries along with the three quilts donated by the fair will be given to Purple Heart veterans of World War II, Korea and Vietnam during a dedication ceremony at 11:30 a.m. Aug. 8. A gun volley will be provided by Bill Edgerton

finds the band and David Allan Coe, who share a great deal of road history, teaming up for the first time on record. “Borrowed Time” show’s the band’s way with a pure Southern rocker, and “Thick As Thieves” celebrates the camaraderie that has marked CRR’s long road history. Jones and Coe continue a CRR tradition involving guest artists. Steve Earle and Charlie Daniels are among those who have sung on the band’s earlier projects, and this time, songwriters have joined the chorus. Bob DiPiero and Craig Wiseman sing backup on their “Diggin’ It,” Anthony Smith on his “What Brothers Do,” and newly signed Mercury Records artist James Otto on “Borrowed Time.” This album also showcases Shirley’s writing skills. He is a co-writer on “White Trash With Money” and “Wasted Time,” both based on real-life events. Confederate Railroad’s current line-up includes, along with vocalist/guitarist Shirley, Mark DuFresne on drums, Wayne Secrest on bass, Gates Nichols on steel guitar and vocals, Jimmy Dormire on lead guitar and Cody McCarver on keyboards and vocals. The quintet’s love of the giveand-take of live performance is such that they still perform a hundred dates a year, and their legions of fans are as appreciative as ever. “There’s nothing profound about this,”
says Shirley. “We’ve been playing music in one form or another for 20 years, and we still enjoy it. One reason is that we do material we like. We do what we want the way we want, regardless of the consequences.” It is a strategy they have employed since the band’s early days in the 1980s. Then, Shirley and his cohorts were splitting their time between a regular stint as house band at Miss Kitty’s in Marietta, Ga., and roadwork backing up David Allan Coe and Johnny Paycheck. The strategy, while effective in the long run, was not a quick ticket to the top. “I knew eventually we’d get a label deal and a real shot at it,” says Shirley, “but we had a rougher image than what was the going thing then. When other club acts around us— people we were often out-drawing—began getting deals, I questioned myself for a time. ‘Do I need starched Wranglers and western shirts? Should we try to be a little more mainstream and play the game?’ We made a decision back then that we would be ourselves.” The payoff took awhile, but it came. “Our first single, ‘She Took It Like A Man,’ went to #26,” says Shirley, “and management and the label were bummed out, but I was thrilled.” He had reason to be. The next two singles, “Jesus And Mama,” and “Queen Of Memphis,” shot to the top of the charts, and three more—”Trashy Women,” “When You Leave That Way You Can Never Go Back” and “She Never Cried,” gave them an even half-dozen hits from their first album, which

says Shirley. “He turned to me and said, ‘You sang real good on that ‘Jesus and Mama’ song. That comment was like getting a blessing from the pope.” Jones also told the band that watching “When You Leave That Way” was the first time he’d ever cried watching a video. That was indicative of the band’s wider success with videos. The cool combination of humor
and emotion that marked their recorded work made their videos among the industry’s most interesting. They consistently reached the top of the video charts—the drag sequence in “Trashy Women” still comes up as a conversation topic among fans—and were nominated for Best Country Video by the CMA in 1996. The road warriors may be a little tamer these days (”We can get as wild as we always did, just not as often”), but they’re still pro-
viding both poignant moments and pure fun, and enjoying all of it. “You start playing music in your bedroom because it’s fun, an enjoyable part of your life,” Shirley says. “Then as you start to become successful at it, it becomes a business. If you’re fortunate, and you’re around long enough, it gets to be fun again, and that’s where it is for me.” Unleashed, produced by Barry Beckett and co-produced by Danny Shirley, continues
the Confederate Railroad tradition of making music that can be fun as well as poignant. As Danny Shirley states, “I don’t try to second guess anybody. What I do is look for songs I like - that seems to work best.” What he found for the new album are songs by such prominent writers as Dennis Linde, Bob DiPiero, Craig Wiseman, Jess Brown, Anthony Smith, and Rivers Rutherford. Danny also contributed two songs to the project.

Mini barn raising will be held for the kids Children of all ages can help in the construction of a mini timber frame barn as part of the fair’s Saturday attractions. Paul Knoebel, an Ohio barn enthusiast, will direct interested children in how to construct his scale model, from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. With the small braces and tiny wooden pegs provided by Knoebel, children assemble walls, otherwise known as bents, raise the barn’s frame, install rafters, and finally attach a symbolic bough. Knoebel along with his wife Phyllis also provide children a small bench with several holes, that they can practice pounding the pegs into.
Greenisen was instrumental in forming the Dairymen’s Cooperative Sales Association in 1945. As a board member, he worked to eradicate brucellosis in the county. Greenisen served as president of the Columbiana County Fair Board, managed the horse races and was announcer for parades, contests and shows. He was honored at the Ohio Fair Managers meeting in 1985 for 35 years of service to the Columbiana County Fair Board. Greenisen was a lifelong member of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church and served on church council. He was active in the Community Chest, UCT, Masonic Lodge, Farm Bureau, Grange and Ruritan and was county chairman for the American Cancer Society. He was a Perry Township trustee, president of the Columbiana County Trustees and Clerks Association and served three terms as Columbiana County commissioner. Greenisen was posthumously awarded the second Distinguished Service Award presented by the Columbiana County Farm Bureau. During the 40 years he was a member, he served four terms as president and served on the state resolutions committee. Charles James Gause 1909-1995
Charles J. Gause devoted his life to improving the agricultural community in Columbiana County and beyond and left lasting contributions through his public service that reach far beyond the farm. Born in Hanover Township, he moved to Cleveland when he was 9, graduating from high school there before returning with his
family to Columbiana County. Gause worked for O.S. Hill as a farm equipment salesman before branching out on his own. In 1956, he started Gause & Richey Farm Supply, an International Harvester franchise at Guilford Lake, with partner Francis Richey. The family’s farm implement dealership continues today under the Gause Equipment name. In 1963, he received the first-ever Partnership for Progress award from the state Farm Equipment Dealers Association for service and contribution to his industry and community. The businessman, who was also an early barnstormer pilot across the Midwest, channeled his civic concerns into public office. He served first as Hanover Township trustee from 1951 to 1965, then two terms as Columbiana County commissioner. At a retirement, testimonial dinner in honor of Gause’s public service, more than 350 attended, including the late Gov. James A. Rhodes. One of Gause’s most significant contributions, perhaps, was the 4-H tractor club he started and developed into the largest such club in the state. More than 1,200 young people learned equipment safety and maintenance under his tutelage over the years. Gause also served as chairman of the Columbiana County 4-H Council, was president of the Hanoverton-area Civic Benefit Fund Association, president of the Guilford Ruritan Club, past vice chairman of the Northeastern Ohio Manpower Consortium and chaired the Columbiana County Health Advisory Council. He and his wife, Gladys, had five children.
