DID YOU KNOW?
The St. Mary’s County Fair Association is a volunteer organization which — along with hundreds of friends, family members and other organizations — produces the St. Mary’s County Fair every September. The Fair Association builds, maintains and manages the fairgrounds throughout the year. The grounds hosted numerous events during the past year ranging from rabies clinics and scout camporees to the St. Mary’s County Oyster Festival.
About our Cover Design Contest . . .
The winner is selected from entries in our St. Mary's County Middle School Contest. This year's winner is Dymond Pilkerton, who drew the cow and pig featured on our catalog cover this year. Dymond was a student at Margaret Brent Middle School when she created the drawing. The drawing will also be printed on T-shirts given to volunteer staff and sold during the fair to support our volunteer event. The second place winner is Thomas DeStefanis from Margaret Brent Middle School. His drawing will adorn the program of events which is handed out to visitors at the gate. Honorable Mention winners this year are Amber Fanelli, Zach Moreland, Zach Buckler and Catherine Middleton of Margaret Brent Middle School and Cassie Aud of Little Flower School. Their drawings are printed in this catalog. Some of their artwork will be printed on the fair admission tickets, sponsored by Chick-Fil-A. Thank you students for your participation, and teachers and Chick-Fil-A for your support!

2014 Fair and Show Requirements The Maryland Department of Agriculture (MDA)’s Animal Health Program strives to safeguard Maryland's animal industries at our Fairs and Shows. With an increased potential of disease transmission occurring when large numbers of animals gather for exhibition, MDA has set forth requirements for exhibitors to follow at Maryland Fairs and Shows. As an exhibitor you can help reduce the potential risk of introduction and spread of infectious and/or contagious diseases by following the species specific health requirements as below. All information and forms can be found on the MDA website at mda.maryland.gov/animalhealth/Pages/Fairs-Shows.aspx.
General Requirements Exhibitor Requirements: Exhibitors at state, county, and district fairs, along with other livestock exhibitions, expositions, and shows are required to comply with regulatory provisions of the State of Maryland relating to animal health as noted in COMAR 15.11.14.0406. These requirements are summarized below. 1.

Livestock does not include dogs and cats. 2. Documentation: Documentation is required for entry of all livestock and is described below. Forms and information for out of state animals (see species specific out of state requirements) may be found on the Maryland Department of Agriculture website: www.mda.state.md.us/animal_health/fair_show • Interstate Certificate of Veterinary Inspection — a legible record, made on an official form of the state of origin, issued by an accredited veterinarian, issued for animals being imported to or exported from this state within 30 days before the importation or exportation of the animals it describes which shows that the animals listed thereon meet the health requirements of the state of destination. • Intrastate Certificate of Veterinary Inspection — a legible record, made on an official form of the state of origin, issued by an accredited veterinarian, issued for animals being shown within the state and not crossing a state line, which shows that the animals listed thereon meet the health requirements of that state. In Maryland, good for entire show season (Jan 1-Dec 31). • Self Certification — a document signed by the owner/caretaker/transporter stating that the animals presented for exhibition are not showing any signs of, or having recent exposure to (within 21 days) infectious or contagious diseases.

Livestock with clinical signs of infectious or contagious diseases or external parasites, such as but not limited to; active lesions of ringworm with resulting loss of hair, sore mouth, caseous lymphadenitis, mange or multiple warts easily visible without close examination, are not permitted entry or allowed to remain at the exhibition. 4. Upon request, a person who exhibits livestock shall present for inspection all reports, test charts, and appropriate health certificates required to accompany the livestock. 5. All Maryland entries must be accompanied by an Intrastate
Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI) for show, except Equine, Poultry and Rabbits. The Intrastate CVI is valid for the entire show season (Jan 1 - Dec. 31), providing that the status of the herd or animal(s) does not change. 6. The Intrastate CVI must be filled out, completed and signed by an accredited veterinarian using the proper CVI form. The veterinarian is required to send the original top (white) copy to MDA Headquarters, the middle (yellow) transport copy is to be retained by the owner of the livestock and the last (pink) copy is for the veterinarian's records. 7. All out-of-state entries must be accompanied by an Interstate Certificate of Veterinary Inspection. An APPROVED copy of this certificate must be forwarded by the State of Origin to the Animal Health Section. The Interstate CVI is valid for 30 days from the date of inspection. 8. Each animal must be properly identified on the Intrastate or Interstate CVI. 9. Self-Certification forms must be filled out within 24 hours prior to loading and presented upon request to the designated representative.

PLEASE NOTE: *Maryland Law provides penalties for violations of Animal Health Law and Regulations. *Livestock failing to meet Health Requirements will be denied entry or removed from the exhibition — “REJECTED”. See policy below:
Animal Health Rejection Policy Animal rejections for health reasons can be made by MDA Animal Health veterinarians or field inspectors, private veterinarians contracted by the show, UM Extension employees or individuals designated by fair or show ‘responsible person’. Suspicion of communicable disease is adequate grounds for rejection. Confirmed diagnosis is not required, since timely removal of suspicious animals is required by law to protect the remaining animals. If it is believed that there is a potentially serious communicable disease present, all animals originating with the suspect animal may be rejected. Vesicular diseases are of particular concern. All decisions are final. All parties involved will be notified of all rejections and the exhibitor is responsible for removal of the animal(s) from the grounds immediately. If you have any questions or are unsure of any of these animal health requirements for Maryland fairs and shows, please contact the MDA Animal Health Headquarters Office or Diagnostic Laboratory during normal business hours.

68th Annual St. Mary’s County Fair
I grew up in St. Mary’s County and my wife, Elaine, and I raised our children here. For the last 35 years, we have operated Hewitt’s Service Center, a The Hewitt family: Mike, Elaine, Kristina and Matthew small business on Three Notch Road in Lexington Park. We love St. Mary’s County and are delighted that our daughter, son-in-law and grandchild have chosen to live and raise their family here. However, for St. Mary’s County to continue to thrive as a County, we must address the State’s attempts to push increased spending down onto the County as well as the economic uncertainty posed by federal sequestration and furloughs. In addition, we must keep an eye on the development that threatens our idyllic way of life. This is why I am running for the Board of Commissioners. I believe we have a better likelihood of weathering these challenges if we act now with due diligence and consensus. COMMISSIONER DAN MORRIS, DISTRICT 2, is not running for re-election and had this say about his replacement ... “Mike Hewitt will be good for St. Mary’s County.” “Mike Hewitt brings a seasoned professionalism, deep civic roots, proven educational experience and a financial proficiency our County needs to preserve and protect the sensitive balance between our natural beauty, our job base, and our desire to keep our taxes low. Mike has my full support and I urge you to elect Mike Hewitt as our next Commissioner.” - COMMISSONER CINDY JONES

Board Member, St. Mary’s County Board of Education I was elected in 1996 to the first “elected” Board of Education in over 100 years and served as chairman from 1997 to 1999. I am pleased that under my leadership we were able to modernize seven schools, including all three high schools and the Tech Center. As a Commissioner, I will continue to support the continued excellence of our school system. Board Member, St. Mary’s County Zoning Board of Appeals The five-member Appeals Board heard and voted on appeals from citizens on land use, zoning and permitting issues. The appeals usually involved requests for exceptions to the Country’s land use rules. As a rule, I am a strong believer in private property rights as long as they are not overly detrimental to our community as a whole or in direct contract to the GDP. Commissioner, St. Mary’s County Planning Commission The seven-member Planning Commission worked with concerned citizens, Country staff, the development community and landowners to help create land use policy. The Board was also the first step in addressing any land use issues that were in contrast to the GDP. Member, State Highway Administration Rt. 235 Focus Group Route 235 (Three Notch Road) is a State Highway and the most heavily traveled road in the County. I was a member of the State Focus Group that sought to create policy to upgrade Route 235. Unfortunately, the State did not take all of our suggestions and there is more that needs to be done. Board Member, Patuxent River Naval Air Museum We are fortunate to be in partnership with the Base to have a museum of such quality in the County. Not only does it add to the cultural arts of our community but it serves as an important legacy of the men and women who went before us to fight for our freedom. Board of Governors, Calvert Marine Museum The Marine Museum is a gem shared by all of Southern Maryland and is deeply rooted in our maritime history. I highly recommend every citizens of the County make at least one visit to the museum. President, Elks Lodge #2092 The Elks Lodge is a benevolent organization that donates time and money to serve our local community. Last year the Elks Lodge supported the Hospice House, Charlotte Hall Vets Home, the Bay District and the Hollywood fire departments.

Please read the class descriptions carefully. Help will be available on entry day to guide you in placing your entries in classes. If you are uncertain, bring the items — we will probably find a class. This department is open to all residents of the five southern Maryland counties. This department contains two age divisions: Adult (17 years and older) and Junior (16 years and under). Entries are accepted Wednesday, Sept. 17, prior to the start of the Fair from 1 to 8 p.m., and may be picked up Sunday evening between 6 and 7:30 pm or on Monday from 1 p.m. to 6 pm. Only one entry per exhibitor per class. Exhibits must be mounted and/or contained in boxes or albums so that the exhibits can be safely moved about for display. With the exception of doll houses, the maximum size of the display should be 12” x 14” and will be strictly enforced due to limited space. Exhibit will be judged for background, objects, and arrangement as a whole. Exhibitors are strongly urged to submit their entries in appropriate containers, considering that the presentation of the entry may be the deciding factor in judging placements. These containers also help ensure that entries remain intact. Creative writing should be entered in an office-style file folder with the entry stapled inside, at the top only. A single page may be displayed in a plastic page protector. No notebooks please. Author’s name (and age for Juniors) are on the entry tag, not the entry. No exhibits entered in previous years are eligible for entry again, unless additions have been made to the exhibit. It is suggested that a title card with pertinent data be included where feasible to add interest to the exhibit. Contact the chairperson if you are exhibiting a large doll house to be assured a proper space is available. Juniors should list their age in the upper right hand corner of the entry tag.
Note: Exhibits must be mounted and/or contained in a display container or album that does not exceed 12” x 14” in size. Prizes to be awarded in each section: First $4.00 Second $3.00 Third $2.00 Champion ribbons will be awarded in both Adult and Junior divisions as merited.

CHARACTER COUNTS & 4-H The goals of 4-H overlap Character Education — to educate youth to become good people and productive citizens.
The Six Pillars of Character
Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring, Citizenship
4-H project work teaches:
Trustworthiness — Trustworthiness is defined as honesty, integrity, promise-keeping, and loyalty. It is learned through participation in project work and various competitive activities offered on county, district, and state levels. Respect — Respect is treating all people with courtesy and politeness; not demeaning anyone. 4H’ers learn to be respectful to others as they work with their peers and adults. Responsibility — Responsibility denotes accountability, excellence, and self-restraint. 4-H’ers exercise responsibility in their project work through decision making, taking care of equipment, feeding & caring for animals, and being held accountable for their actions. Fairness — Fairness means we treat all people fairly, not taking advantage of other’s mistakes. Caring — Caring suggests that we treat others with kindness and in the same manner we wish to be treated. Citizenship — Being a good citizen means going beyond our own interests and demonstrating a concern for the needs of the public. Good 4-H citizens recognize their obligations to make their neighborhoods and communities the best they can be.
4-H PLEDGE
I pledge: My HEAD to clearer thinking; My HEART to greater loyalty; My HANDS to larger service; and My HEALTH to better living, For my club, my community, my country, and my world.
4-H MOTTO
“To Make the Best Better” “Learn by Doing” 4-H Youth Development creates opportunities for youth to experience: 1. Independence 2. Belonging 3. Generosity 4. Mastery

BABY SHOW and CUTE KID CONTEST Sunday, September 21, 2014 - 10 a.m. Fair Stage Sponsored by River View Grange
Judging based on: Beauty, Neatness and Personality. Girls and boys are judged separately for each class except twins. Since there are usually very few entries in the twins class, all ages, both girls and boys are judged in one class. Each Child will have a brief time on stage. They may be carried or escorted by an adult, depending upon the child’s age. We realize it is difficult to judge personality in such a short time, especially with infants. Each age group is scheduled for a specific time. Depending on the number of entries in prior classes, your child’s class could be called later than scheduled. The time schedule is based on the number of entries in previous years. Please be patient and enjoy the beautiful babies. Prizes: First: Trophy, Blue Ribbon, $10.00 Second: Red Ribbon, $5.00 Third: White Ribbon, $3.00 Fourth: Yellow Ribbon Winners in the Twins class will receive duplicate trophy and ribbon awards. Contestants who do not win a prize will receive an Honorable Mention ribbon. We appreciate the patience and good humor of the public and families of our contestants. It is a long day for everyone.

Thank You! The St. Mary’s County Fair Association Inc. is a volunteer organization dedicated to the celebration of our agricultural heritage through the presentation of the annual St. Mary’s County Fair, and the year-round development and maintenance of the fairground facility. The Board of Directors of the St. Mary’s County Fair Association gratefully acknowledge and appreciate the cooperation of volunteer efforts of the many organizations and individuals, whose assistance is critical to the success of the County Fair: The Lexington Park, Leonardtown, Mechanicsville, and Hollywood Lions and the 3rd District Optimists Clubs for the gate coverage. The volunteer fire departments and rescue squads, American Red Cross, Maryland State Police, St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Department, public and parochial schools, University of Maryland Extension Educators and 4-H Clubs, Thomas DeStefanis, Margaret Brent Middle School
St. Mary’s Riding Club, and the Southern Maryland Antique Power Association all provide invaluable assistance. The many faithful individual VOLUNTEERS who have given long hours of service to make the exhibits, programs, entertainment, buildings and grounds worthy of St. Mary’s County. Many of these volunteers are listed throughout this catalog, but it is impossible to list all the important volunteers that register the exhibits, arrange the displays, perform the nuts and bolts tasks required for a successful fair. We hope you feel a sense of pride for a job well done! Special thanks to the Leonardtown Baptist Church volunteers for keeping the picnic area spotless! And to the public, each one of you, for entering your exhibits and by your attendance at the fair. Without your participation, we could not have a County Fair!
