2022 Nicola Valley Fall Fair Entries Catalogue

Welcome to the 2022 Nicola Valley Fall Fair!

We are excited and pleased to be holding a 2022 Fall Fair after a two-year hiatus due to COVID, fires and floods. Holding the annual Fall Fair is a massive undertaking and would not be possible without the many hours of work by our volunteers.

We welcome all. You can volunteer for one hour or more like some of us do. Come on out, meet some new friends and see how the Fair comes together.

We anticipate a bigger and better Fall Fair this year with everyone being home for the past two years. There has been an uptick of people learning new skills in gardening, canning, baking, homecrafts, photography, hobbies, etc. We look forward to seeing lots of new faces and many old friends.

We would like to thank our dedicated volunteers for soldiering on with our Giant Yard Sales through the pandemic. We have been diligently working toward earning funds for building washroom facility. We have our drawings done, with the help of funding from the TNRD, and they are currently out for bids. Our hope is to have shovels in the ground this fall.

We would also like to give a huge shout-out to our community for their support through donations to our yard sales and by showing up on Saturdays purchasing all the treasures we have to offer. We could never do it without them.

We would also like to thank our business community for their continued support through donations and special prizes for the fair. Our success depends on their continued support and we are thankful that we live in such a generous community.

We are pleased to announce that during COVID we were able to repair the roofs of the exhibition building, poultry barn and jump shed. These repairs were made possible through a CERIP grant from the Ministry of Tourism and funds that we had raised. These repairs were much need and will extend the life of our buildings for many years.

2022 Nicola Valley Fall Fair Rules & Regulations (continued) 19. No claim for injury or loss or damage to any persons or property shall ever be asserted or suit instituted or maintained against the Society, its officers or their agents, by or on behalf of any visitor, exhibitor, or any person, firm or corporation, or their agents, representatives, servants or employees, having licence or privilege to visit or exhibit on the grounds of the Society or occupying any space thereon, rented or leased.

HINTS FOR EXHIBITORS • • • • •

First and foremost, if you are an exhibitor, be a good sport.

Be on time with your exhibits. The criticism of the public for a show not opening on time is often aimed at the judges, when in fact, it is the fault of the late exhibitors.

Follow the schedule explicitly. If the rules or schedule are not clear, obtain a ruling before the show, not after.

(Read the Schedule carefully).

Do not blame the show committee if they fail to bring to your attention that you have entered the wrong number of specimens in a class. It is your responsibility, not theirs.

Label your entry with the correct cultivar (variety) name even though the schedule may not ask for it. This adds to the educational value of the show.

Prize money 1st - $3 2nd - $2 3rd - $1 High point winner for section "A" - $50 Gift Certificate from Miss Vickies Best Overall Flower arrangement for section "A" - $10 Cash - Sponsored by Century 21 Moving Real Estate Ltd .

Best Overall Potted Plant section "A"- $15 Cash - Sponsored by Century 21 Moving Real Estate Ltd .

Best Artistic Display of a Single Bloom section "A" - $5 Cash - Sponsored by Century 21 Moving Real Estate Ltd .

Rules • All flowers must have been grown by the exhibitor with the exception of dried flowers, which may include wild flowers gathered and dried by the exhibitor.

• All cut flowers must be in plain jars in proportion to the size of the flowers. Stems should be the same length, if possible. If the flowers are a single variety, then the blooms should be approximately the same size.

• Potted plants must be shown in the pot they have been grown in for at least one year, with the exception of seasonal outdoor plants. Fancy pots or baskets are acceptable.

• Arrangements of dried or fresh flowers may be shown in pretty containers.

• Theme arrangements must be named and use mostly cut flowers and vegetation in the display with appropriate artificial objects, if desired.

• Only one entry per class.

Flower Section • Tea Rose - is a large single bloom on a stem. Grandiflora - large rose - group on a single stem. Floribunda - usually has a spray of flowers at the end of a stem. To show it should be symmetrical from side & top view. Glads - Stem should be straight - bloom should be - Bottom 1/3 of stem fully open - middle 1/3 of stem half open - top 1/3 of stem closed buds. Blooms should be tight together up the stem so stem does not show - blooms should be evenly balanced on both sides of the stem.

• If at all possible, please bring flowers in your own jars and sized appropriately, ie: Glads and other tall flowers in carafes. We do have some jars.

• Try to get as long a stem as possible for showing roses, dahlias, glads, asters, etc. The longer the stem, the better they show.

• There should be no leaves appearing below the water line.

• If a class says 3 flowers, make sure there are no buds. A bud showing colour is considered a bloom and is then disqualified due to too many flowers. If picked at night before show, it has a great possibility of becoming partially open, ie: petunias, dahlias, asters, roses etc.

• All plants should be clean and tidy. No dead leaves or debris in the pot or on the plant. Please remove dust. Loosen soil with a fork.

• African Violets must be a single crown unless they belong to the trailing class.
