This is a celebration anyone who “bleeds” green doesn’t want to miss, including Joan and Wes Parr! Joan has been associated with 4-H for almost 50 years, and Wes has been a willing supporter. Joan Kelly joined the San Mateo County Equestrian 4-H Club in 1957, just after receiving her Welsh pony, Joshua. Her mother knew she needed help with that feisty pony and found the only 4-H horse club in the county. There were 70 members. Over the nine years Joan was a member, she enjoyed many projects besides her horse project, including foods, clothing, sheep, home management, leadership, arts and raising a Guide Dog for the Blind puppy. One of the highlights of her club membership was becoming a teen leader. The chance to work with younger members ignited her interest in helping others and experiencing the joy of their successes. Wes Parr and Joan Kelly met while attending California State Polytechnic University in San Luis Obispo, California. They married in 1969, and moved to Rupert a year later so Wes could farm with his family. In 1971, she was hired by University of Idaho Extension as the Cassia County Home Economist. Three of the first people to welcome her into the new job were 4-H teens – Susan Kuwana, Howard Allred and Paul Warr. Joan quickly learned to love the Extension Homemakers but her passion was with 4-H youth, adults and families. In the 1970’s, she worked closely with Mary Hondo, a mentor and friend, to establish an active countywide 4-H teen leader association. The teens did community service activities, attended state teen leader conferences, manned many fair floats and booths, assisted with all 4-H activities at the fair, achievement days, county awards programs, and various contests. She also met the young 4-H teen leader, Debi (Knopp) Barnes, a highly valued member of the Extension Office, whom Joan would fortunately work with for years. Yes, leadership development is a cornerstone of the 4-H program the Parr’s avidly encourage! Wes had a short foray into 4-H when he lead a motorcycle club for a year or two. Since that time, he’s a behind the scenes supporter who provides awards each year and has been known to move tables, pack and unload a car and set up a wide variety of displays, booths and equipment patiently. Joan retired from University of Idaho Extension in 2004, after 34 years as an Extension Educator. She was honored to be inducted into the Idaho 4-H Hall of Fame in 2008. Parr’s continue to support and enjoy 4-H. Wes and Joan know that 4-H makes a real, lasting and meaningful difference in people’s lives. Why is 4-H successful? Thank 4-H leaders, families and UI Extension staff for this. Willa Cather said, “Where there is great love, there are always miracles.” The fair is a culmination of the 4-H year for Cassia County youth, showcasing members’ learning and celebrating their successes. There are many caring people who give of their time and talents. Wes and Joan express their gratitude to the hardworking Fairboard members, UI Extension Office and 4-H leaders and families whose year round efforts make the Cassia County Fair and Rodeo one of the best! They also appreciate the outstanding and continuous support provided by the Cassia County Commissioners. Wes and Joan thank you enthusiastically for the chance to serve as parade marshals this very special year as we enjoy a “Treasure Chest of Cassia’s Best . . .100 years of 4-H”! 12 2011-12 Cassia County Fair and Rodeo Queen Abbie Nelson Hello, my name is Abby Nelson. I am your 2012 Cassia County Fair and Rodeo Queen. This year I have had the opportunity to represent our Fair and Rodeo. It has been a once in a lifetime experience. As I have been able to attend parades, rodeos and other events, I have had the opportunity to meet and get to know many influential people. I am the 18 year old daughter of Brad and Shelly Nelson. I will be a senior at Burley High School this year. I am the Burley High School Yearbook Editor. Outside of school, I enjoy dancing and performing. I dance at En Pointe Dance Academy. I am involved in the Albion Greenhorns 4-H club. My first love is to ride horses! I enjoy trail riding, western pleasure and equitation! I encourage young women interested in running for Queen or Princess to Just Go For It! It is an experience that can provide confidence and poise to any girl’s life. 13 2011-12 Cassia County Fair and Rodeo Senior Princess Becky Robins Hello Cassia County. My name is Becky Robins and I am your 2012 Fair and Rodeo Senior Princess! I am the 16 year old daughter of Joel and Lori Robins of Burley. This coming fall I will be a junior at Burley High School where I played on the J.V. Softball team this spring. I love to rodeo, snowboard, 4-H and just ride my horses! Last year on August 17, 2011, I was blessed with the opportunity to make my dreams come true when I was crowned Cassia County Rodeo Princess. It has been such a great honor for me, and an amazing experience that I will never forget. I have learned so much that will help me throughout my life, such as public speaking, personal interviews and most importantly, acting like a princess! This past year, I have been taught to never give up, even when times are tough. I know that through hard work and dedication, dreams can come true! I have loved every minute of representing this wonderful county. I would like to thank my friends and family for supporting me in all that I do. Thanks to my mom for always being there for me and to my dad for hauling this princess and her horse around. I appreciate all that you guys do for me! I learned to ride horses from the very best, my friend Jan. She has done so much for me and helped me fulfill my dreams. I am very excited for fair week. It will be one that I will cherish in my heart forever! 14 2012 Cassia County Concert Starring David Nail Tuesday, August 14, 8:30 PM Stage Front: $20.00 Grandstands: $20.00 Bleachers: $16.00 Tickets Available by calling 678-9150 or at the Cassia County Fairgrounds, 1101 Elba Avenue, Burley; Taco Bandito in Burley or Vickers in Twin Falls You’ll have to forgive Grammy nominee, David Nail for bringing a little bit of those Mississippi Delta blues into his country music. Like many that have found their way onto the Nashville country music scene, his is a tale of persistence and dedication to find that elusive record launch. Few have taken it hard on the chin twice before that lucky break, however. The small-town Missouri native turned away a college baseball scholarship after high school and drove to Nashville to follow his musical dreams. After just a year in Music City, Nail would be overwhelmed by a music industry he didn’t know anything about and returned back home. He’d return to his baseball roots coaching the Twitty City Knights. In 2005, Nail was signed to MCA Nashville, and the chase was back on. David Nail’s long ride, ten years in the making, comes with the release of his debut album, I’m About To Come Alive. It features tracks written by Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts’ Gary Le Vox and hosts guest vocals by Miranda Lambert. It’s his second single, “Red Light,” that has spent an amazing 21 weeks on the charts thus far and is still climbing up into the Top 20. Some artists pay attention to their Twitter and Facebook pages . . . while others lives on them. Taylor Swift, Blake Shelton and LeAnn Rimes come to mind. And let's add DAVID NAIL to the list. Twitter is a drug that he can't live without. David said, quote, "I'm addicted to it. I think it's a brilliant avenue to share news with people." David wasn't all that interested at first, and then THE MAN got him hooked. He said, quote, "I can remember my record label begging me to get involved with this thing called Twitter and I thought, that's so ridiculous.” "Who cares that I'm eating lunch at Arby's right now? But it just became addicting like a drug." David has 45,000 followers and he says he'll answer just about any question they have, especially when it comes to sports.

This show is tentatively set to take place on Wednesday of the fair in conjunction with the Cassia County Heifer Futurity. These two shows will be evaluated by a different judge than the regular 4-H beef show. This show is open to all 4-H and FFA beef exhibitors, because recognition and awards will also be going to breeder, the steer must meet the following requirements. ELIGIBILITY Calves must be born and raised in the Cassia County Fair District and must be branded and or tattooed with permanent identification indicating ownership and source of origination. Calves must be nominated for this show by the respective local Breeder and legal acting Agent who must sign and verify that calf was indeed raised locally. (NOTE- Feedlot calves bust be traced back to breeder and nominated by breeder.) Breeder must acknowledge the Dam of said calf was legally owned and resided in Cassia County Fair district and that conception of said Dam took place under breeder’s supervision. In addition to nominating and verifying calf, Breeder will pay a $10.00 nomination fee. Each exhibitor will also verify that calf meets eligibility and will permanently reside in Cassia County Fair District through duration of feed process and pay a $10.00 entry fee. 100% of monies will go toward procuring a judge and premiums. In addition to premiums, Cassia County champion buckles will be awarded to Grand and Reserve Champion steers as well as a buckle to the Breeder of the Champion steer. There will also be an award for the top overall steer based on carcass data and Cassia Born and Raised show results. SHOW This will be a “no fit” show meaning calves will be clipped, washed and blown, “No paint or adhesives.” Show day preparation will be by exhibitor and supervision from immediate family or leader only. All other Cassia County show rules apply. ENTRIES Entries are due at weigh-ins March 17, 2012. Late entries will be accepted until August 1, 2012 for an additional $5.00 late fee. If your spare steer is also Cassia born and raised you will want to include that steer on this entry with qualifying information. Entry fees will be for one steer. If spare steer was raised by a different breeder, it will also need to be nominated. You will exhibit the same steer in both the regular 4-H Beef show and the Cassia Born and Raised show. All questions or disputes will be referred to the “Born and Raised” Committee. 19 CASSIA COUNTY HEIFER FUTURITY Wednesday, August 15, 4:00 PM, Arena by the new Steer Barn Following the Cassia Born and Raised Steer Show COMMITTEE MEMBERS: Tom & Sally Ottley 638-5571; Lane & Cami Schumann 645-2247; Jeff & Tammy Chatburn 673-6660 & Chad & Lisa Black 824-5590 Purpose: To give 4-H and FFA members an opportunity to learn the cow calf producer part of the beef industry. To select a calf that will mature into a productive cow. To select a bull to mate to their heifer to get a calf that can be born easily and grow so they have a good efficient pair. They will learn to care for their heifer so that she will breed back while raising a calf. They will learn that even though they may not have the prettiest heifer calf or the biggest bred heifer they may have the best pair and with accumulated points could be the Futurity Champion. Overall they will experience a good rewarding project that could last three years or more. The Futurity will be its own show and will not affect any awards the county provides. Exhibitors must be registered as a member of 4H by the deadline in May. Exhibitors must show in the regular county show and complete the record books if they are to be in the Futurity, but participation in the Futurity is not mandatory. An entry form for the Futurity is required to be turned in by the first Saturday in June of each year for the upcoming show in August. There will be no entry fees. Any prizes or awards for classes and champions will be donated from donors and FFA chapters. The committee will make every effort to ensure that the prizes are consistent from year to year. Rules: The Futurity can be a three year project starting with a heifer calf gaining points for three years, or a two year project starting with a yearling heifer gaining points for two years. They must fit the age limits listed below to qualify for heifer calf or yearling classes. If a heifer at any time fails to meet Futurity guidelines, as in being bred, calving or breeding back, she will be dropped from the Futurity competition. Heifers dropped from Futurity may still compete in the county show. Rules will be interpreted and enforced by the Futurity Committee and Beef Superintendent. The Futurity Committee may be formed under the direction of the superintendent to manage the Futurity. Heifers must be owned by the exhibitors or their immediate family. Exhibitors must have copy of heifer’s registration papers or if unregistered, have a verification of age and ID number paper signed by the breeder of the heifer. These must be included on the Entry form. All heifers must have their ID numbers tattooed in an ear and must be readable. The first year heifers must qualify for the heifer calf class or the Yearling heifer class. The heifer calves will compete the first year as calves, the next year as yearling heifers, and the next year as cow calf pairs. They accumulate points each year to compete for Futurity champion. Heifers starting the first year as yearling heifers will compete in the yearling class and then the cow calf pair class for Futurity champion. Heifer Calves: Heifers cannot be more than 9 months of age on show day. January, February, March born calves work best for the parameters. Yearling heifers: Yearling heifers may have competed in the heifer calf class the prior year and accumulated points, or they can enter the futurity for the first time and only accumulate points for two years. They must be at least 9 months of age and may not be over 21 months of age on show day. They must have a vet certificate verifying they were safe with calf before they were 17 months old that will be presented at the County Fair check in. Cow calf pairs and bred heifers must be over 21 months of age on show day. Must have competed the prior year to have qualified for this class. Cows must have calved before they were 26 months old. Cow must have her own natural born calf at side. If calf is more than 3 months of age, the cow must have a vet certificate verifying she is rebred to present at County Fair check in. Breeder must verify the exact age of calf. Each year a new group of open heifers start the next futurity and continue as stated above. These rules may be revised by the superintendent and/or the Futurity Committee to address any problems that arise. Points: Points will be accumulated each year of the Futurity by the placing in class and division championship placing. Class points will be determined by the number of animals in the class. The entry will receive one point for every animal they place above in class plus one point. For example if there are 5 animals in a class, the class winner will get 5 points, second in class gets 4 points, third in class gets 3 points, and so on down the placings. Division championship points will be 5 points for champion and 3 points for reserve champion. Points will be added from each year they have competed to determine the Futurity Champion.

Prepare display before entry time. An individual may enter produce in as many classes & lots as he/she wishes, but only one entry per lot. All entries must be on stiff heavy paper plates without a covering. Any produce entered on flimsy plates will be rejected. Exhibits must be prepared as follows: Apples Cantaloupe Carrots Corn Cucumber Egg Plant Green Onions Herbs Kohlrabi Melon Beets Onions Parsnips Peppers Potatoes stems on stem removed 1 inch tops sweet (husked) ¼ inch stem 1 inch stem six inches long put in plastic bag 2 inch petioles 1 inch stem market size – 1” tops 1 inch tops, skins off 1 inch top ¼ inch stem washed Pumpkin Radishes Raspberries Rhubarb Rutabaga Summer Squash Winter Squash Strawberries Sugar Beets Tomatoes Turnips 2 inch stem ½ inch top stems removed 18” stalks pulled, not cut off; trim each stalk with 1½”-2” fan on top 1 inch top 8”-10” long with a 1” stem 2 inch stem stems on berries trim all green off stem removed 1 inch top Tips for showing your produce and crops: Follow the directions in the fairbook as to the number of items needed for the entry and how they are to be prepared. If the book calls for 5 apples, 4 will not do. That entry will be set aside by the judge. If the category calls for red tomatoes, half red and half green will not do. If stems are removed when the fairbook calls for stems on, that entry will be set aside. Diseased, worm eaten, scarred, oversized or undersized entries are the first to be eliminated. Many times potatoes are eliminated simply because of dirt still on them. Vegetables should be clean of all dirt but not scrubbed. When displaying more than one item in the entry be sure they are uniform in size. Do not mix vegetables. Wild oat seed in grain crops will eliminate that entry. All entries should be of prime eating quality unless you are entering in the largest squash category, for example. The judge is not required to give ribbons in any category where entries are substandard. Points to consider in selecting vegetables for exhibit: 1. 2. 3. Defects Size Uniformity 4. 5. 6. Type Color Neatness Remember these points: 1. It is easier to select a good exhibit from many specimens than from a few. 2. Plan the arrangement of your exhibit before you take it to the fair. 3. Prepare displays before entry time. 4. An individual may enter produce in as many classes and lots as he/she wishes, but only one entry per lot. 5. 6. All entries must be on stiff white heavy paper plates. Any product entered on flimsy plates or plates that have any color on them will be rejected. 7. Berries may be placed in stiff white bowls. 8.
