2024 FAIR DEDICATION Kevin Law It’s easy to be a leader when everything is going well. But it’s hard to be a leader when times are tough. During the dark days of the pandemic in 2020, Kevin held the Newport Agricultural Fair together even when we had to cancel in 2020. First, Kevin held the Fair Board together via Zoom meetings. Later he worked with vendors and others to make sure they would come back in 2021 when we had the fair again. After all of that he got us back on our feet and made sure we would continue with the fair for years to come. Kevin made sure the fair survived the pandemic and for that we dedicate the 2024 Fair to him. Thank you, Kevin!

I HORTICULTURE (CLASSES #1-26): 1. Only one entry per person in each class 2. Exhibits should be in soft drink bottles 3. All flowers much be grown by exhibitor 4. Only one flower per stem unless otherwise stated ARRANGEMENTS (CLASSES #35-48): • Only one entry per person in each class • Arrangement means the artistic use of cut flowers, other plant material with the exception of classes 45, 49 • Dried branches may be used with fresh plant material for purposes of creating a line NOTES FOR PREPARING EXHIBITS FOR THE FLOWER DEPARTMENT: • In preparing exhibits for the Flower Department, it is very important that you condition your flowers and other plant materials. There are several simple things which can be done to keep your exhibits fresher and make them more durable. • It is best to cut your flowers in the early morning on the day they are to be judged (or late in the afternoon the day before, thus giving them several hours to soak up water before placing them in bottles for exhibiting, or making into arrangements. • If your plant tends to “bleed” when cut then sear the stem ends with a match or candle flame before placing them in the water woody stems need be split or pounded so that water can readily go up into the stem. • After gathering your plant materials, wrap bunches together in newspapers and plunge them into tepid water for 3 to 5 hours or overnight. • In preparing Horticulture exhibits (Section 1) do not cut off buds or leaves, unless they are bad and your pruning will not be noticed. Never add extra foliage. • Stems should be equal in length if at all possible. • All flower arrangements requiring water should have a container which will hold a sufficient supply of moisture to keep them fresh throughout the judging and the following day. HOW ENTRIES ARE JUDGED: • Entries are judged on their appearance at time, not how they looked or will look. • Stems should be straight and strong to hold the flowers upright. A perfect score for condition is given only to flowers at their ideal stage of development at judging time. • Flowers and foliage should be firm and crisp with no evidence of wilting. • Tips or petal margins should not have curling, fading or browning.

• Containers used for horticultural classes serve only to hold material in upright position. They should not take attention away from the flowers. • A good flower arrangement helps you to see all of the specimens clearly. • Flowers should have stems about the same height with blooms spaced so that petals do not overlap. • The relation of colors to one another in the arrangement should make for a pleasing and unified arrangement of flowers and foliage. Good color harmony should also be evident between plant materials and the container. • Arrangements should have a definite design with stems arranged to create an attractive effect, such as a triangle, s-curve, crescent or sunburst. This requires the tasteful use of color, space, texture and plant. RULES FOR FLOWER ENTRIES: 1. The Fair Committee will exercise care but cannot be responsible for any breakage or loss of plants, containers, or accessories used. 2. Multiple blue, one red and one white ribbon may be awarded in each class at the discretion of the judges. 3. Tri-colored ribbon will be awarded for Best in Show, in horticulture, arrangements and junior arrangements.
