It has been a pleasure to serve as president of the Lenawee County Fair this past
year. 2012 was a great fair, but we are now preparing for the 2013 fair, July 21-27,
“Country Pride, County Wide.”
The 2013 Grandstand entertainment will begin with Tractor Pulls on Sunday.
Monday will be the first of 2 Figure 8 Demo races and on Tuesday evening a rodeo.
Our main act this year is country singer Easton Corbin, along with high energy opening act The Lost Trailers, this will all occur on Wednesday evening. The second Figure
8 Demo race is scheduled for Thursday while Friday the first ever 4x4 Truck Pull, with
2 classes of Hot Tractors. Saturday night we will close fair week with Tuff Truck and
Car Competition, and another spectacular display of fireworks.
Big Rock Amusements, family owned and operated by Matt and Kelly
McDonaugh from Michigan, is our new carnival ride company. Every day will feature
exciting ride specials. Children and families alike will be pleased with the options Big
Rock Amusements offers.
The parade will kick off the fair week Sunday at 1:00. The Animal Oasis on
Farm Lane returns as will the Birthing Tent, where you can see newborn baby animals. If you are lucky you might have the opportunity to watch the birth of a farm animal. The efforts and hard work of our 4-H/FFA youth will be displayed throughout the
North end of the fairgrounds with farm animals and static projects. The band shell will
feature a ton of free entertainment. Merchants and vendors complete the fair with
their displays and specials. Let’s not forget the food vendors offering wonderful fair
food.
As this is my second year as president of the Lenawee County Fair, I would
like to thank all of the board members and volunteers for their support. Without fair
board members and volunteers compiling countless hours of work, our great fair
wouldn’t be possible. With the amazing work of everyone and the success of the last
two years we look forward to the future as we strive to make it YOUR fair.
Grandstand show tickets are available at the fair office, phone (517)263-3007
and at www.startickets.com. Thank you in advance to everyone who attends our 2013
Lenawee County Fair.
Mark Ruttkofsky, President

Livestock Sample Collection Procedures
Performed by a Veterinarian/authorized
representative
**Any animal entered in any class at the fair may be subjected to
drug testing at the discretion of the Agricultural Society of
Lenawee County or their disignated representative. The fair's
veterinarian/authorized representative may collect test samples as
needed.
At the Fair
1. Verify the animal you are about to test. Identify any tattoos,
ear tags or ear notches that are on the animal. Whenever
possible use USDA official identification vs. farm identification.
Be sure to include this information on the “Sample Tag”.
2. Present the container for examination to the animal
representative/exhibitor, making sure to verify with the animal
representative that the security seal has not been previously
broken. If the sample container is rejected for any reason, use
another container and return the defective one to the laboratory.
Note: The animal representative must remain with the animal at
all times during the sample collection process.
3. Record the seal # in the top right box of the Sample
Transmittal Packing List.
4. Open the container by pressing upward on the tab marked
open, breaking the seal.
5. Place the container in the catching stick; fold the lid back
and anchor it under the metal finger welded onto the handle.
6. If a urine sample can not be obtained, a Michigan
Licensed Veterinarian/Veterinarian Technician may collect five
tubes of blood from the animal. Each tube of blood must be
identified with one of the six small sticker tags provided on the
“Sample Tag”. Place the five labeled blood tubes inside a plastic
sample container and seal as described below.
7. After collecting the sample, close the lid and snap it
completely shut. Loop the barbed plastic strip on the sample
container through the two holes in the container tabs and pull
snug. Apply a short piece of evidence tape across the
protruding end of the plastic barbed strip and also across the lid
and down sides of the container.
8. Complete the information on a “Sample Tag” substituting
the name of the fair for “Track”, the name of the animal (Grand
Champion Steer, Reserve Champion Swine, etc.) for “Horse”
and the ear tag number or other unique identification number for
“Tattoo”. After the animal representative has watched the
sample collection and sealing, they must sign under “Witness”
on the sample tag. The person collecting the sample must sign
under the “Sampled By” on the “Sample Tag”.
9. Place one completed large sticker tag from the top of the
“Sample Tag” on the top of the sample container over the
evidence tape and the other completed large sticker tag on the
side of the container. The remaining portion of the completed
“Sample Tag” must be kept and NOT returned to the lab.
10. Lock the sealed and labeled sample container in a metal
can.
NOTE: Once the can is locked it cannot be opened until it
reaches the lab.
11. Samples must be held secure and cold until transferred to
the laboratory.
NOTE: Urine may be frozen, blood must be kept refrigerated
and never be frozen.
12. Any discarded needles should be placed in an approved
“Sharps” container by the veterinarian/veterinarian technician.
13. When all sample collection has been completed, fill out
the “Sample Transmittal Packing List.” The packing list must
identify the tag number of all samples included in the case.
Enclose the completed “Sample Transmittal Packing List,” any
unused supplies and regenerated/refrozen freezer packs in the
case and seal it with the provided intact case seal.
After Sample Collection is Completed
1. Transport samples to the lab either in person or by
overnight express. Arrange samples to arrive at the lab during
normal business hours (7:30 am - 5:00 pm, Monday through
Friday). The lab is located on the campus of Michigan State
University at: 1615 South Harrision Road, East Lansing, MI
48823.
2. Collect and retain signed Animal Certification Forms and
the remaining portion of the completed “Sample Tag”.
NOTE: Both of these documents should be kept in a secure
place for cross-reference when sample results are received. In
the event of a positive result these documents must be kept as
evidence.

ANIMAL OASIS
With more than 40 years of experience with
domestic and exotic animals of all sizes and types,
Michigan-based Animal Oasis provides an interactive,
educational, and memorable experience that appeals
to all generations!
The Animal Oasis exotic animal exhibit provides an
opportunity to get up close and personal with a variety
of unusual creatures. Visitors will learn the difference
between an African crested porcupine and the
prehensile-tailed porcupine of South America. They
can observe the social and family dynamics of ringtailed lemurs. Kangaroos, monkeys, and other species
complete the exhibit.
The only one of its kind in the world - a
unique mobile walk-through bird exhibit. They
have taken the avian encounter concept and put it on
the road. The exhibit includes a variety of healthy and
beautiful birds in free flight. Custom air lock systems
in the display enable visitors to walk among the birds
in a riot of color and beauty; a special mix is available
for visitors to purchase and hand-feed the birds.
And if that is not enough – Camel Rides!

7. After collecting the sample, close the lid and snap it completely shut. Loop the barbed plastic strip on the sample container through the two holes in the container tabs and pull
snug. Apply a short piece of evidence tape across the protruding end of the plastic barbed strip and also across the lid
and down sides of the container.
8. Complete the information on a “Sample Tag” substituting
the name of the fair for “Track”, the name of the animal (Grand
Champion Steer, Reserve Champion Swine, etc.) for “Horse”
and the ear tag number or other unique identification number
for “Tattoo”. after the animal representative has watched the
sample collection and sealing, they must sign under “Witness”
on the sample tag. The person collecting the sample must sign
under the “Sampled By” on the “Sample Tag”.

“Sample Tag” on the top of the sample container over the evidence tape and the other completed large sticer tag on the
side of the container. The remaining portion of the completed
“Sample Tag” must be kept and NOT returned to the lab.
