1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:08,480
Derrick asked if I could call the
meeting to order and then I'd like to

2
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:14,000
move item 8A, election of officers to
the top of the agenda if there's no

3
00:00:11,519 --> 00:00:18,560
objection. We should do that first
thing. So,

4
00:00:16,080 --> 00:00:24,320
so I will at this time call for
nomination for chairman or president of

5
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:29,519
the fair board. Taking nominations from
the floor.

6
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:32,880
I nominate Derek Wolf for president of
the Dun County Fair Board.

7
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:39,600
» Derek Wolf has been nominated. Anybody?
Are there any further nominations?

8
00:00:36,079 --> 00:00:44,160
Any further nominations?
Any further nominations?

9
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:47,280
If not, I'll ask for a motion to close
nominations and cast a unanimous ballot

10
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:50,239
for Derek Wolf.
>> Make a motion to close the nominations.

11
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:54,719
» We have a motion by Larry. Is there a
second?

12
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:58,640
» Second by Troy. All those in favor
signify by saying I.

13
00:00:56,719 --> 00:01:01,920
» Opposed.
You're on, Derek.

14
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:05,320
» You should just keep taking over. That
was really good.

15
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:15,320
All right. Now, we're going to go to the
vice president. Um, any nominations for

16
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:15,320
the vice president?

17
00:01:20,320 --> 00:01:28,799
Scott Byer.
Oh, I don't know why it's doing that.

18
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:35,759
Scott, do you accept?
Okay. Any other nominations?

19
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:40,439

Any other nominations?

their nominations.
Austin, you accept? Yeah,

30
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:33,760
» I already forgot what I'm supposed to
say after that. So,

31
00:02:31,920 --> 00:02:38,680
I'll make a motion to close nomination
cast for Austin for secretary.

32
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:47,680
» Second it.
>> Okay. All in favor?

33

sure how this works just cuz we're Do we

38
00:03:15,599 --> 00:03:23,280
have to do it the same way being that
it's a term thing, Dave? Or do you know?

39
00:03:19,920 --> 00:03:26,159
» Um I think that I think our board

wants to nominate um Jeff Eert.
>> I'll nominate Jeff.

42
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:41,200
» Jeff, you accept?
Um, I suppose I better ask if there's

43
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:45,879
any other nominations, but there
shouldn't be being that we're reelecting

44
00:03:42,879 --> 00:03:45,879
them.

45
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:55,760
Okay, that clo is closed. Jeff Eert, you

46
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:57,680

>> Opposed. Okay. Jeff passes. Okay.

48
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:10,799
Nick um he wanted to let me know that uh

49
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:15,519
talk for a little bit just to let you
guys know that he uh um depending on

50
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:20,560
what happens here, he wants to be
committed to this committee after the

51
00:04:17,199 --> 00:04:26,320
football and wrestling season. and he
was happy to be on um the music

52
00:04:23,759 --> 00:04:31,759
committee that we had with the sending
out the emails uh and stuff like that

53

and and being a part of the fair. Um
with that being said, he said whatever

00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:44,960
happens happens. So I'll bring him up

00:04:47,280 --> 00:04:51,199

65
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,440

66
00:05:41,280 --> 00:05:47,199
Thank you. Is there a second?
>> Second.

67
00:05:43,919 --> 00:05:52,960

68
00:05:49,919 --> 00:05:57,800
» Oppos. Okay.
Okay. Is there any public comment?

69
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:04,479
» Nothing.
>> Nothing. No public comment tonight. Uh,

70
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:10,960
public hearings.
None. Okay. We're going to go to the

71
00:06:07,199 --> 00:06:17,199
staff reports and fair updates. Um,
Michael, um, just how how we coming on

72
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:21,919
the, uh, Facebook and is there anything
that we should be adding to that in the

73
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:25,840
upcoming months, keep people interested?
>> I don't really have anything to report

74
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:32,400
for the Facebook page. Um, obviously
with the fair being done, kind of the um

75
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:37,120
the amount of people that interact with
her page obviously decreases, but I

76
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:42,800
think just sharing information about
next year's event and even just kind of

77
00:06:40,319 --> 00:06:47,120
a lot of people like throwback pictures.
So, just stuff to keep people engaged

78
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:49,759
with our page, but that's kind of an
ongoing

79
00:06:48,639 --> 00:06:53,680
uh thing to do.
>> Okay. So, if Larry had sent it, it's one

80
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:58,479
of his 1960
throwback showing cattle, that might be

81
00:06:56,160 --> 00:07:02,319
something that you would throw on there.
>> So, Larry, if you wouldn't mind uh

82
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:07,680
sending us a picture of that, that would
be great.

83
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:12,880
Okay. You send them to one of our emails
here. Okay. All right. Um,

84
00:07:10,639 --> 00:07:17,680
» one of these days, uh, if we could get
the tractor show winners up there, too,

85
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:22,960
with a little blurb on them. Jeff's got
the pictures. he sent them to to me as

86
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:26,960
well. Uh but uh that was a great turnout
and I I think the group loved it. But

87
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:31,360
that's one thing we never ended up
posting just with everything else we all

88
00:07:29,199 --> 00:07:36,479
had going on. So one of the throwbacks
we could do with that too.

89
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:44,400
» Any other suggestions
or what um Facebook?

90
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:48,639
Um I guess uh
Michael continuing recapping the year,

91
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:51,840
you know, the stuff that happened and
because we had I think we had a great

92
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:54,840
fair and so just to keep reminding
people.

93
00:07:56,319 --> 00:08:07,759
Anything else? Anybody else like to add?
Okay, we'll move on to uh facilities and

94
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:12,800
parks, Austin and Brady.
Um

95
00:08:10,479 --> 00:08:16,240
it's I it's been such a whirlwind. I
don't remember what all we touched on or

96
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:25,440
didn't touch on on the facility side,
but uh last meeting, but

97
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:29,440
um we had no power issues.
I don't think there's a ton of wrap-up

98
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:35,360
items on the facility side. The biggest
thing is I think we were all so burnt

99
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:42,640
out from the fair that after Sunday
uh it we

100
00:08:38,959 --> 00:08:49,680
there was nobody there including myself
um that kind of the the next week

101
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:54,800
uh we didn't have really a good plan of
who was doing what uh etc. kind of like

102
00:08:52,640 --> 00:09:02,399
we did for setup.
So, um I think that's something that we

103
00:08:58,399 --> 00:09:08,800
can work on either, you know, delegating
uh or coming up with a better plan

104
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:14,800
versus um this last year on just putting
away stuff, etc. But, um I think all in

105
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:18,720
all it went pretty well.
Uh one thing we didn't touch on was

106
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:23,680
custodial. I think that turned out
pretty well for even just having Mike

107
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:27,440
there the days he was there. Um, we
definitely maxed out that 7,000

108
00:09:25,680 --> 00:09:33,519
allocation.
Um, but I don't think it was terribly

109
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:38,959
more than that that we ate on the
facility side, but I think it turned out

110
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:44,240
really well.
>> How was the custo? I mean, and I knew

111
00:09:41,519 --> 00:09:47,600
that was kind of a talking point and
what did what was Mike seeing in there?

112
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:52,560
something that we need to have for
obviously for next year. But was there

113
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:56,959
any main problems with that or how did
he say it was how it went?

114
00:09:54,800 --> 00:10:03,120
» No, from everything I've heard
everything went really well and

115
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:09,200
I think having all those outdoor
port johns helped and he said it really

116
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:13,120
wasn't that dirty in those uh restrooms.
So

117
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:17,680
» yeah. Yep. radio sessions. Pretty
nervous ahead of time based on how much

118
00:10:15,680 --> 00:10:22,880
manpower we had there last year with
that other company and stuff, but

119
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:26,959
» turned out very well.
>> What did the county employees think

120
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:29,360
about having like the picnic or their
daily thing there? I was curious on

121
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:35,360
that.
>> We did touch on that too. Um,

122
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:43,120
extremely well. Uh, there's a countywide
email that came out. Every Friday we get

123
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:49,760
a county email update and um there were
five

124
00:10:45,680 --> 00:10:55,519
there's close to uh 254 employees and
around 600 total guests from the county

125
00:10:51,680 --> 00:11:02,000
side with family members and stuff. So
that was huge. there was about

126
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:09,200
uh a $2,000 check going to the 4 stand
and then the remaining 2500 or so is

127
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:14,880
coming to the gate to total that 4500.
Um

128
00:11:11,519 --> 00:11:18,560
uh so I don't think it could have went
better and I don't think you could ever

129
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:23,440
give a county employee picnic
entertainment or anything for what we

130
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:29,440
did for that fair. So I think it'll just
grow and continue from there. I I think

131
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:33,680
in future years we don't do just a one
voucher employee and then the rest of

132
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:38,079
the group gets in. I think they should
RSCP with how many people are coming and

133
00:11:35,680 --> 00:11:43,760
then as department heads done county
gives out individual tickets. That way

134
00:11:40,959 --> 00:11:47,600
it's just done. It's not a I vouch for
these people that are in my car kind of

135
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:51,240
thing. They'll be a lot easier to track
to in the future.

136
00:11:51,680 --> 00:11:59,360
Is that good? Yeah. I no complaints
there just on how we tracked it. I think

137
00:11:57,839 --> 00:12:03,360
I could have a few.
>> Yeah, I think it'd be awesome if the

138
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:07,920
county would want to do that every year.
It's kind of brings everything full

139
00:12:05,279 --> 00:12:12,880
circle.
>> Dave, just to add to that, Austin, the

140
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:18,639
email that went out to the county was an
employee had wrote in a letter to Dan

141
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:22,240
and he shared it with everybody. He said
this employee put it better than he

142
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:26,639
could and talked about what an
incredible experience it was and was the

143
00:12:24,560 --> 00:12:31,920
best gift that he had ever gotten or the
family had ever gotten um from the

144
00:12:29,279 --> 00:12:36,399
county in 15 or 20 years whatever that
they'd worked for the county and how

145
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:42,560
much they appreciated that and so it was
uh very wellreceived it seemed like. So,

146
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:47,680
» and in that email, it it uh said uh
props to Derek and the fair board for

147
00:12:45,279 --> 00:12:55,200
the hard work and there was more people
there on Thursday night, he said, than

148
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:58,800
past years in total, he thought. So, bit
of an exaggeration, but still it just

149
00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:06,639
shows that
um it was a nice uh write up.

150
00:13:03,839 --> 00:13:11,279
» Anybody else got anything for Austin? Uh
Brady, sorry.

151
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:18,240
» Just just an update on the fan. Um,
right now I'm kind of waiting to

152
00:13:16,079 --> 00:13:24,959
We had someone come in and look at it
and and they were in contact with the

153
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:30,160
gas fans and they did say that
apparently there was

154
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:34,720
from a horrible inspection from what I
thought. Um, they were saying that the

155
00:13:32,560 --> 00:13:41,760
motor was damaged and they wanted like
almost $9,000 to fix it. I don't believe

156
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:47,040
that's a situation. They're sending out
a new fan blade right now so that we can

157
00:13:44,560 --> 00:13:51,440
put it in. They told me what to look for
once we install it and we'll just kind

158
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:56,160
of make a determination
once that uh fan blade comes in and we

159
00:13:54,560 --> 00:13:58,880
fix it. So,
>> okay, Lar Larry, did you have something

160
00:13:57,839 --> 00:14:04,160
to add to that?
>> Well, something for Austin that we

161
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:08,880
discussed at the uh fair board meeting
as far as county employees and

162
00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:13,519
everything. Uh, Dun County did gain an
employee because of the fair this year.

163
00:14:11,519 --> 00:14:17,760
And Jim Peterson, the judge, is my
brother-in-law and he was out to the

164
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:22,959
farm and and uh they've been searching
for an assistant district attorney

165
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:27,040
and have not been able to fill the
position.

166
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:32,000
Well, the physician has been filled with
a young woman that came to the fair and

167
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:38,399
she had been looking at Oaklair County
and she looked at Chip Oak or Dun County

168
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:43,120
and the experience that she, this is
from the judge, the experience that she

169
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:48,639
had at the Dun County Fair. She made
application and was hired uh assisting

170
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:52,959
district attorney. So, it's like, you
know, you couldn't make that story up,

171
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:59,160
» you know. So,
>> she puts that under

172
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,160
» it's it's really

173
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:06,079
» um
Thank you for sharing that. Ray, go back

174
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:10,160
on to that. You were saying about the
fan that the motor might be damaged, but

175
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:14,480
they have to do more inspection. That's
what I'm understanding out of that.

176
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:18,160
» Well, he basically said that he suspects
from the pictures. They only took like

177
00:15:16,399 --> 00:15:21,360
six pictures and sent them to big ass
fans.

178
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:27,199
» Mhm. Based on the pictures that they
got, they said it looks like it's bent.

179
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:31,920
It, to my knowledge, it doesn't look
bent, but once we install the the new

180
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:38,320
fan blade, we'll know for sure if it's
bent or not, and then uh kind of make a

181
00:15:34,959 --> 00:15:45,120
determination from there. Uh I didn't
see the need to

182
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:50,800
do a $9,000 motor replacement if it's
not damaged. And everything that I'm

183
00:15:48,639 --> 00:15:57,360
seeing, it doesn't look damaged to me,
but I

184
00:15:53,680 --> 00:16:01,120
» So, so they're allowing us to put on the
blade and then inspect it after that. Is

185
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,959
» correct. Okay.
>> Yes.

186
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:06,160
» Dave, did you
>> I just had a question for Austin. With

187
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:09,680
all the work that was done on the
electrical,

188
00:16:07,839 --> 00:16:13,920
are are we pretty much set for next year
then with the Yeah. With that system?

189
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:18,800
» Yep.
Um,

190
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:25,040
I
all the extra cords are made. Nothing

191
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:30,160
nothing that I could think of.
Zero issues.

192
00:16:26,959 --> 00:16:35,600
Everything's Every pedestal's replaced.
Only thing that I'd like to do is pop

193
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,440
that
baby pavilion.

194
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:41,360
» Oh, yeah.
>> And put it directly in line. So, it's a

195
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:46,160
front of house booth that's permanent.
that faces the stage and um could still

196
00:16:44,399 --> 00:16:49,839
be used for everything else just is in a
more

197
00:16:47,759 --> 00:16:54,720
desired spot.
Um

198
00:16:51,759 --> 00:16:58,160
that answers your question. Yep. Um
>> are you guys still looking at maybe

199
00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:02,079
running a water line under the ground
though? That's one. Okay.

200
00:16:59,759 --> 00:17:08,559
» Yep. That's something that'll we'll work
on next spring is just burying it, you

201
00:17:06,079 --> 00:17:14,400
know, six, eight inches below ground and
we'll blow it out every year.

202
00:17:11,120 --> 00:17:19,439
back to his
comments on the fan motor and stuff.

203
00:17:17,360 --> 00:17:23,120
We're doing this to be proactive to help
GFL out cuz they're the ones that hit

204
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,199
this.
>> Yeah,

205
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:30,320
» we're being proactive about it. But the
further we get away from like with our

206
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:35,520
fixes and stuff, the more afraid I get
of

207
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:40,960
of them fully replacing it if later down
the line it does need a full motor. And

208
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:46,960
then when we fix this stuff ourselves,
then it voids the warranty.

209
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:52,320
» But
we're So just a heads up, trying to be

210
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:57,360
proactive about this to help a vendor
out. But

211
00:17:54,320 --> 00:18:01,919
the only thing that scares me is
further away we get from just them

212
00:17:59,919 --> 00:18:07,679
filing a insurance claim and fixing it
outright is scary a little bit with how

213
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:11,679
those cost.
Troy

214
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:16,240
» Brady on the water line going out. Do
you know is that going to be like a one

215
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:19,919
inch line and how far?
>> I don't remember if it's 3/4 or one

216
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:27,919
inch, but we'll keep the same size line
that we've got now. And then we just we

217
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:33,280
we might make a T going off towards uh
the back side of the um back side of

218
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:38,000
building. Is that something that the
like the fair board pays for or how

219
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:42,240
» how is that
>> is that part of the county

220
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:46,960
» or is that county?
>> I would assume

221
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:51,679
that the county would probably just do
it. I don't think it'll take us that

222
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:55,039
long to bury it and it's that much less
that we'd have to do for setup and tear

223
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:59,760
down every year
>> other than just blowing it out and

224
00:18:56,799 --> 00:19:03,520
that's not a huge deal for that. Let me
know if the if it's not a county deal on

225
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:09,360
the tubing.
>> Yep. Oh,

226
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:13,039
» hey. Anything else? Brady or Austin want
to touch? Um,

227
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:23,039
» wouldn't really know the best spot on
this, but uh we um I emailed Country Jam

228
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:26,880
on potential acts that are touring that
weekend before and uh we have a meeting

229
00:19:25,360 --> 00:19:32,799
set up with them in the in the coming
weeks to see what's what's able to be

230
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:36,480
done or or bring in someone that's
already in the area.

231
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:41,120
» That's a good idea. uh because you can
get considerably cheaper if they're

232
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:49,160
performing on a Saturday night and they
come half hour away on Wednesday or

233
00:19:43,679 --> 00:19:49,160
Thursday. So, more to come on that.

234
00:19:49,520 --> 00:20:00,080
Um okay,
anything else? Any questions? Okay,

235
00:19:55,840 --> 00:20:06,720
thank you. Um, uh, Zach Ramirez is not
with us tonight, but, uh, he asked me to

236
00:20:03,039 --> 00:20:13,039
share there's, uh, Compier Financial,
um, grant that opens for, uh, county

237
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:17,760
fairground improvement grant provides up
to $7,500

238
00:20:15,039 --> 00:20:24,799
that helps, uh, renovate and update or
improve our agricultural buildings, our

239
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:31,600
facilities fund. Um and also support of
new construction if if that's something

240
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:38,640
that we want to um
go uh do. Um they are

241
00:20:35,120 --> 00:20:43,760
October. So September 1st and then it
closes I don't know why this is there it

242
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:48,480
is. That's the other one. September 1st
through October 15th and then next one

243
00:20:45,919 --> 00:20:54,880
is December 15th through the February
15th. Anybody like to comment on that,

244
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:59,039
Troy? Uh, sorry, Ben.
>> I think it'd be an awesome if if he can

245
00:20:57,360 --> 00:21:01,280
send an application in or we got to send
one in.

246
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:04,080
» Uh, we we'll have to probably do it by
the looks of it.

247
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:06,799
» I think it'd be a great idea if we could
send an application in.

248
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:10,480
» Dave,
>> I agree. I think

249
00:21:09,360 --> 00:21:15,360
100%.
>> And if it's something that whoever on

250
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:22,000
the fair board, I know Josh Kudson is
doing it for MAP. So like whoever if

251
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:25,840
need any insight or on filling it out or
maybe I could talk to Josh too.

252
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:28,960
» Otherwise I can also talk to my wife.
She works with copier too. So

253
00:21:27,360 --> 00:21:30,480
» I'll write one up and we'll send it to
her. How's that? So

254
00:21:29,919 --> 00:21:34,559
» that works.
>> And then we'll have her proof read it if

255
00:21:32,159 --> 00:21:38,760
that's all right with you guys. You want
me to share it with the committee or

256
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:47,679
» Okay. All right. So that's what Zach
Ramirez has done and uh so that that is

257
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,400
uh on head.
>> I do have one more thing for Zach

258
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,720
department.
>> Y

259
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:58,960
» and I just wanted to mention it while we
were on live here that the junior uh

260
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:03,280
dairy judging team won state.
>> Uh

261
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:06,559
first time ever, right, Ben? Ben's one
of the coach.

262
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:10,320
» First time ever in Dun County judging
history, the junior team won state. Our

263
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:14,880
seniors team has won, but never the
juniors. So, our juniors won.

264
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:18,000
» So, nice job, Ben. Ben Powers, Jim
Powers, and my son Ben Styer were the

265
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:23,480
coaches this year. So, they did a
amazing job with the kids. So,

266
00:22:20,159 --> 00:22:23,480
» very awesome.

267
00:22:24,159 --> 00:22:34,159
Any other comments for Zack Ramirez?
Okay. Um, Troy, you got any map items

268
00:22:31,360 --> 00:22:39,679
for this? Uh, just map wise, I know I
missed last month, but this year the

269
00:22:35,919 --> 00:22:45,120
sale was a record sale. uh highest sell
or highest dollar amount ever. Uh we had

270
00:22:42,559 --> 00:22:49,600
a MAP meeting here probably two three
weeks ago and we talked about uh using

271
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:53,200
some of the money. We're going to try to
get some grant money also to buy more

272
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:58,640
pens so we don't have to go to northern
Wisconsin

273
00:22:54,880 --> 00:23:04,080
uh to borrow their pens. So that's kind
of the conversation that we had on our

274
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:07,600
end.
I had a call today, a complaint, and

275
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:12,000
someone, they weren't really
complaining, but they were asking, "Why

276
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:16,159
does it take so long to get the fair
checks, the um animal checks?" And I

277
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:19,520
didn't really have a good answer. So, I
just wanted I told him I had this

278
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:24,880
meeting today and I get back to him as
to why it takes as long as it does.

279
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:27,520
» We send out all the checks as soon as we
receive enough money to send out to the

280
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,919
kids.
>> You're talking?

281
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:33,280
» Yeah. Map.
>> Yeah.

282
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:38,000
» Yep. So basically after we get not
everybody has to pay but as soon as we

283
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:42,159
get the dollar amount in that we can
send the money out to the kids. So

284
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:45,039
that's basically why it takes
>> covers the check.

285
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:47,840
» Yeah. That cover the checks for the
kids.

286
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:52,600
» I wasn't quite sure.
>> Yep. That's that's the only reason

287
00:23:53,039 --> 00:24:00,159
» Go ahead. with
with that MA money from previous years

288
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:04,400
and that account that got transferred
over etc. Have you

289
00:24:02,799 --> 00:24:09,200
» received that?
>> I from D County.

290
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:11,840
» I think so. I'd have to ask Paul. I
think there was like 7,000 of that

291
00:24:11,120 --> 00:24:14,559
number
>> something like that.

292
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:20,559
» I'm not 100% but I want to say it was
around 7,000. And then with what the 1%

293
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:25,440
we made with the fair, you know, we get
to keep it now, but that all goes for,

294
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:30,799
you know, upgrades and stuff like that.
So, we we're getting quotes on the new

295
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:34,880
pens. And then they still wanted a
little bit better ventilation in the

296
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:39,919
sheet barn, but I told them that the
biggest problem is the electrical in

297
00:24:36,559 --> 00:24:43,919
there to handle too many more fans, you
know. So,

298
00:24:42,159 --> 00:24:46,720
and I asked them, I go, "Were the fans
this year not good enough?" and they

299
00:24:45,279 --> 00:24:52,159
said, "No, it was great, but it wasn't
hot." So, it's kind I I go, "Well, it's

300
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:55,440
not I don't know. I wasn't over there a
whole lot, but I'm like, we got an

301
00:24:53,679 --> 00:25:00,240
electrical issue, right?" You know, if
we put too many more fans in big fans.

302
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:05,679
» Also, that exhaust fan wasn't turned
down until Saturday afternoon by me. So,

303
00:25:03,279 --> 00:25:08,799
» that probably really kicked it in high
gear. Yeah. But

304
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:14,960
» no, they they were appreciative of the
fans that were put in there this year,

305
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:21,200
you know, but I think they're still just
worried on what it'd be like really hot.

306
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:26,120
But I think our main thing is is more
pens for sheep, goats, and pigs.

307
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:35,120
» Any other thing? Oh, okay.
>> I just want to commend the map committee

308
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:40,080
and the entire auction at the fair. I
don't know if people realize how good of

309
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:43,760
an auction Dun County has. We I traveled
to several different fairs this year and

310
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:46,720
auctions and that and and I've told the
league guys as well. I made it very

311
00:25:45,279 --> 00:25:51,919
clear to them how good a job they do
running the auction. But this is hands

312
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:57,039
down the best auction around just the
way they handle it with the biders, the

313
00:25:53,760 --> 00:26:01,120
the name cards and um everything that
they do. It's very wellrun. Recognizing

314
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:04,960
the seniors, you don't see that at a lot
of them. The sale of champions, those

315
00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:10,000
kind of things. A lot of people don't.
The auctions don't do that. So, um, just

316
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:14,880
commend the map committee and what you
guys have done. So, keep it up.

317
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:22,880
Thanks. Anybody else got anything for
Troy? No. Thanks, Troy. All right. Uh,

318
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:28,799
we're going to um go items placed on the
request of the chair. Uh there is an

319
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:32,799
item that is placed. Um and I'm gonna
I'm gonna turn it over to Larry if Larry

320
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,799
don't mind. Or you want I'd rather you
talk about it, but if you want me to, I

321
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:39,159
can.
>> Oh, I can talk about it.

322
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,159
» Okay. Okay.

323
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:44,400
» I can talk.
>> Thank God.

324
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:48,520
» Well,
and then thank you for your

325
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,520
consideration.

326
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:56,880
Um,
in the run-up to the fair, we were all

327
00:26:52,960 --> 00:27:03,679
really excited about uh uh the mural
that was done on the north building. And

328
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:08,880
uh at the time they had not put the uh
where the small animals and sheep or

329
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:13,679
said small animals I think up there. You
know, there was a cover that went on

330
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:19,440
that and the other part was was pretty
bad shape. So, I took it upon myself to

331
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:24,480
find out uh
if we could get uh two signs made for

332
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:31,200
the front. One that says sheep and
goats, sorry, sheep and goats, and one

333
00:27:27,919 --> 00:27:35,840
that says small animals. And uh the guy
assured me that he could, but being the

334
00:27:33,919 --> 00:27:41,360
excitement of the fair and being uh
Larry Bork, I says, "Let's just get her

335
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:47,760
done." And uh I told him, "If I have if
we have to, I'll pay for it." And uh so

336
00:27:45,120 --> 00:27:57,919
I was expecting it to cost a,000 or
$500, but the bill came in at $1,000

337
00:27:52,000 --> 00:28:03,039
plus uh uh sales tax of u
$55.

338
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:09,360
So I had written out a check.
I thought, geez, you know, maybe there's

339
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:18,640
a way uh fair could fair board could be
part of this and I could uh you know, uh

340
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:22,799
pay half of it or uh if the fair board
paid the whole thing and I could make a

341
00:28:20,159 --> 00:28:27,840
contribution to the fair. Uh I can go
either way with it. You know, it ain't

342
00:28:24,799 --> 00:28:36,240
the $1,000 grows on trees, but if I do
shake the old pants hard enough, enough

343
00:28:31,279 --> 00:28:44,960
will fall out. So I got a bill uh for,55
for 3x8 33 mm sign panel with painted

344
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:50,799
background and threecolor hand painted
design to match mural lettering and

345
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:55,679
colors uh small animals and she goats
includes hardware to mount and he was

346
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:59,200
really slow in getting it back to us.
So, we never really had a chance to get

347
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:03,919
it up there because if you take off
those other signs, you got different

348
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:10,480
colored wall. So, they're someplace over
there. And uh uh if the fair board would

349
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:15,760
want to pay for half of them, that'd be
great. Or if they don't want to pay for

350
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:19,840
anything, that's fine, too. But uh and
then I could or if they paid the whole

351
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:24,000
thing, then I could I'd contribute $500
to the fair.

352
00:29:22,159 --> 00:29:27,200
So, is that about the way to describe
it? That's perfect, Larry. I like it.

353
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:32,240
Um,
>> I got It have been easier, but the pants

354
00:29:29,679 --> 00:29:35,200
got holes in their pockets and walk
around the farm. Where'd that come from?

355
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:42,399
You know,
>> and you're pulling out wads of 100. I

356
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:47,200
get it. So, um, two by you're asking for
just so we're understanding what you're

357
00:29:44,399 --> 00:29:50,399
asking for is that we pay for half of
it,

358
00:29:47,679 --> 00:29:52,399
» right? and I and I I'll have to pay the
other half or if you pay the whole

359
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:57,840
thing,
>> then I'll pay $500 to the uh fair board.

360
00:29:57,279 --> 00:30:01,039
» Okay.
>> And then what

361
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:06,240
» we uh that's
>> if I can interject

362
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:07,360
» if if if Wade can reinvoice that to the
county.

363
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:11,760
» Yeah.
>> We can send in our S211

364
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:15,520
sales tax exemption.
>> Okay. Well, I think that's what we

365
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:20,320
should if that's what you'd like to do.
$55 is

366
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:25,760
» Yep. Yeah. So, uh, we have to get a
what? Uh, disc, um,

367
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,520
» motion. Sorry, I was trying to think
what I wanted to say. Then we can have

368
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:33,279
discuss.
>> I'd like to make a motion to have it

369
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:39,120
rebuild under the fair or under the D
county fair board for so it can be taxes

370
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:41,200
on for the full amount of the signs.
>> Right.

371
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:45,360
» Is there a second?
>> Second.

372
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:48,880
» Okay. Discussion about it. Austin,
just what you're saying is about that.

373
00:30:47,679 --> 00:30:53,120
Anybody else? Dave,
>> those are the signs they got done for

374
00:30:51,039 --> 00:30:57,279
the fair. They were just hung up on the
front of the Those are the signs we're

375
00:30:55,039 --> 00:31:01,039
talking about. Same colors as
>> as the mural on the side.

376
00:30:59,919 --> 00:31:03,679
» We just didn't have time.
>> They're aluminum.

377
00:31:03,039 --> 00:31:07,679
» Mhm.
>> Yeah. So, they got there, but they

378
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:12,640
didn't get put up. And it would it did
the right thing by

379
00:31:10,399 --> 00:31:16,480
» Dave. So you're you're going to
reinvoice it. So then is that then the

380
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:19,440
fair board's going to pay for it? Is
that what you're the intent is?

381
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:25,039
» Okay.
>> I'll pay the fair board

382
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:29,600
» contribution for next year's.
>> So that but that's the motion. So you're

383
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:34,799
the motion is is that you're we're going
to reinvoice it for,58.

384
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:37,440
You're going to pay the $500.
That's the motion that's out there in

385
00:31:36,159 --> 00:31:43,440
the discussion.
>> Re rebuild for a,000 because it was

386
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:48,159
So it be rebuilt.
>> I'll make it. That's That's the motion I

387
00:31:45,679 --> 00:31:54,240
made. Sorry. I'm just trying to make
sure we all understood it. Okay.

388
00:31:51,760 --> 00:32:00,799
» Everybody got that?
Discussion?

389
00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:04,799
Any more conversation?
Motion's out there. Um so all in favor I

390
00:32:04,399 --> 00:32:09,600
» I
>> oppose.

391
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:14,880
Okay, Larry, that passed.
Thank you.

392
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:22,240
Okay. Um All right. We're going to move
into 8B,

393
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:26,960
uh the food vendor contracts. Um so I
had went over them. Um we're going to

394
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:33,360
get it up pulled up here and hopefully
be able to show you the changes. And um

395
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:37,279
again, these are numbers that are put in
there. I'm not saying it has to be. I'm

396
00:32:35,519 --> 00:32:42,880
I maybe shouldn't even put a number in,
but these are the

397
00:32:40,159 --> 00:32:51,919
We're getting there.
>> Okay, so as you can see, the food vendor

398
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:57,919
space fee is now $600,
right? Put your mouse there. On a

399
00:32:54,080 --> 00:33:04,159
regular payment due by July 10th, it
after that, it was $650.

400
00:33:01,519 --> 00:33:08,399
Um, and that's that's the new writing
that we want to apply is the

401
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:13,760
applications are due by 4 pm the first
Monday in April. So, by doing that, it

402
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:17,600
allows us to have that before our
meeting. The fair board will review the

403
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:22,159
applications at the meeting and announce
selections by the by the Friday

404
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:26,559
following. Payments are due by the first
Monday in May. again on a fair board

405
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:32,080
night.
Um the fair board reserves the right to

406
00:33:29,039 --> 00:33:38,320
assign all vendors booth locations while
we consider past play placements

407
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:43,200
and special request. Final spot assign
assignments are at the board's sole

408
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:52,240
discretion and are non-negotiable. So
those who are already in we we added

409
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:58,320
that top piece. Okay. So the fee the fee
includes your spot electricity and two

410
00:33:54,559 --> 00:34:03,519
weekly admission passes. So um each
additional pass may be purchased for

411
00:34:00,799 --> 00:34:11,280
$20. Now
again that it should be 15 for right

412
00:34:06,159 --> 00:34:15,280
now. Sorry about that. So 15 um and then
as you see we got uh the full payment

413
00:34:13,679 --> 00:34:20,399
online
that that kind of stuff

414
00:34:18,079 --> 00:34:24,960
» is the down payment.
uh the down and this is why I brought it

415
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:30,720
up for us to discuss. But these are the
changes that are made uh that we uh off

416
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:36,960
of uh um um what am I trying to say off
of our previous um vendors that they

417
00:34:34,079 --> 00:34:42,399
wanted. We we applied that to what they
wanted and this is what we we came up

418
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:45,280
with. Now the only thing that is changed
really well there's a lot of things

419
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:50,800
changed but the biggest thing that are
changed is the date and the amount.

420
00:34:48,879 --> 00:34:56,960
Otherwise, the rest of it was just
getting, how do you say, uh, more

421
00:34:53,359 --> 00:35:03,760
technical, uh, the right words. Um, and
so that's what we did. So, um, so I

422
00:35:01,359 --> 00:35:09,680
guess we need to kind of talk about it
uh, with a $1,000 and uh, if the times

423
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:13,440
» can we make it so that it's, you know,
payments are due on the first Monday in

424
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:17,200
May. So that's would be the on our
fairboard date that that they're made by

425
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:21,599
4:00,
>> right? So that there's a cut. So that

426
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:25,480
way we would know on that fairboard
meeting who's paid

427
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:32,839
» for by the first Monday.

428
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:37,320
Okay. Um

429
00:35:37,359 --> 00:35:43,119
so okay,
thanks. Yeah, good good good catch.

430
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:47,520
Troy,
>> how much is like the Are you asking for

431
00:35:45,599 --> 00:35:51,040
the full thousand by then?
>> Down bank,

432
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:55,760
» right? No, the uh right now we have the
full thousand because that's what was

433
00:35:52,640 --> 00:36:00,079
placed when they sent in I forget who
was but they sent when they sent in what

434
00:35:57,839 --> 00:36:04,400
they wanted they said that we need the
money. This is how normal fairs operate.

435
00:36:02,079 --> 00:36:10,000
You get the money and then you move on
that way if they don't come. So, I know

436
00:36:07,119 --> 00:36:14,720
the biggest thing that they the couple
of them that I know that they talk about

437
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:20,480
is like early in the spring like that
and just to know where they sit is that

438
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:24,960
most of them are like 20 to $30,000 in
the hole by paying all the, you know,

439
00:36:22,720 --> 00:36:29,200
paying all this ahead and have no
income, you know, cuz nothing started.

440
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:35,200
So, like by asking it a little, you
know, earlier, which it's better for us,

441
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:38,320
right? But I just make sure that we're
think you know some I'm not saying it's

442
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:44,079
wrong but just make sure that we're
thinking we're asking them to put money

443
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:48,880
out what at least a month or two earlier
>> than normal but it is what it is. But I

444
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:53,280
guess I just wanted to know that like I
never knew that they have that much

445
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:58,240
money tied up in their events you know
for the year to

446
00:36:55,359 --> 00:37:03,359
» do. So it go I guess go ahead. My
thought it my thought process is the

447
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:10,079
money doesn't affect us but the signed
contract cut off affects us.

448
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:13,599
You know what I mean? Having knowing
whether it be a down payment or

449
00:37:11,599 --> 00:37:18,240
something
by April etc. But the signed contract is

450
00:37:16,720 --> 00:37:23,920
what
or something legal legally binding that

451
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:30,400
just knows that they're a part of it.
But long as our thing is within that

452
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:35,359
year, we're sitting fine versus
a private organization, I guess you

453
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:41,040
could say. But
um and the other half of this is putting

454
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:46,000
in this uh application that says
there'll be a maximum

455
00:37:43,119 --> 00:37:50,480
of nine food vendors or 10 food vendors.
So they have a little bit of peace of

456
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:54,880
mind there to see that there's value in
that extra cost upfront, but knowing

457
00:37:53,200 --> 00:38:00,000
that there'll be less food vendors than
this year regardless with most of them

458
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:04,960
selling out, etc. It's just one more
thing to show that uh okay, we're up on

459
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:08,359
the ante here, but also you're going to
have more traffic.

460
00:38:08,720 --> 00:38:15,680
And I guess my thoughts would just be if
we can I think you got to get some money

461
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:19,920
from them, you know, like even if it was
half down, you know, when they had their

462
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:24,480
written contract by this time and then
paid the rest by

463
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:31,040
» I would agree that it keeps them from
backing out.

464
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:38,000
» We we were going off of the request of
some of these food vendors. Myself, Kim,

465
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:41,599
uh uh uh Hamarge had seen that. These
are the requests that they brought to

466
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:44,800
us. That's why they're up in here.
That's why I was trying to explain

467
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:49,200
earlier. I'm not the one that just made
this up. This is what they're telling us

468
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:52,240
is normal for other places to go. I'm
not saying it's wrong or right. You guys

469
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:56,800
make that decision.
>> Personally, I like the idea of saying,

470
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:59,920
"Okay, it's all paid in full upfront."
That way, if they, you know, if they pay

471
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:03,680
half, well, if they don't show up, we
only get half the money. That way, and

472
00:39:01,119 --> 00:39:06,960
we've already reserved their spot. That
way if they pay and they don't show up,

473
00:39:05,359 --> 00:39:11,520
we still get the same amount of money
and we're not scrambling to find

474
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:16,560
somebody. I'm assuming if you go to
Country Jam, Country Fest, any of the

475
00:39:13,599 --> 00:39:22,000
big you're paying up front. Um, you
know, even like

476
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:25,760
most places you pay before you leave
that year, you left this year, they've

477
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:30,320
already paid for their,
>> right? You know, even like just, you

478
00:39:28,720 --> 00:39:34,640
know, like at the farmers market,
something a little different, but they

479
00:39:32,240 --> 00:39:39,920
pay in January for the summer. Like you
always pay ahead for your spots. And

480
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:44,000
it's just And it's another little thing
is I know we have the county and we

481
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:50,320
they're paying our bills, but it also
allows us to bring in money in May, so

482
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:53,920
we can kind of work towards having our
own bucket of money that we're working

483
00:39:52,079 --> 00:39:58,320
off of. So it's not the county's bucket
of money that we're working off of. you

484
00:39:56,320 --> 00:40:03,440
know, just in case something does happen
in the future, we set these precedents

485
00:40:00,240 --> 00:40:07,839
now that we're trying to work on our own
a little bit more for them.

486
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:11,599
» Dave, did you have something to add?
>> Just to go off what Austin said about

487
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:16,560
the signed contracts. So, is their
application their signed contract or

488
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:22,119
once they're accepted by the fair board,
do they have a signed contract? How is

489
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:22,119
that handled?

490
00:40:22,240 --> 00:40:29,680
This would just be it as of now, but we
could easily make something up to go

491
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:34,800
with this. It's a lot. Okay, let's
continue on that. They were submitting

492
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:39,200
this to us, but then it was going to the
fair board to accept it. Some of these

493
00:40:37,839 --> 00:40:42,960
were filled out. Some of these were
filled out with a check mailed in with

494
00:40:40,720 --> 00:40:49,359
them. I think that process could be
short up a little bit, too. But I think

495
00:40:46,079 --> 00:40:54,240
if they're accepted, a more beefy
contract could easily go go with this

496
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:57,560
that Jim or or council can make up
pretty quickly.

497
00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:03,680
Or if you had a signed contract from
them, you know, with their application

498
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:07,760
fee and they were accepted by the fair
board, you could just have in there that

499
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:13,319
that constitute a valid contract and
you're done, you know, that way. So you

500
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,319
got it locked in.

501
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:19,920
These are all still pennies on the
dollar versus some of these festivals.

502
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:25,440
So, if they ask for this upfront, it's
still I think the cost 15 years ago to

503
00:41:23,359 --> 00:41:28,160
be a vendor at Country Fest for food was
$4,500.

504
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:31,760
Obviously, it's a little bit different
for traffic and stuff like that, but

505
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:36,240
still.
>> And like I said, that price is just I

506
00:41:34,319 --> 00:41:39,440
should have just put a zero, but that's
I

507
00:41:38,240 --> 00:41:43,280
» I agree with the price.
>> Are we voting on the price, too? Uh,

508
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:45,440
it's underneath an action item. So, I
would like to

509
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:49,680
» Yeah. No, and I guess the only thing the
only reason I brought it up is cuz I

510
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:54,960
know what some of the guys, you know,
say that they wait until the very end

511
00:41:52,720 --> 00:41:58,560
because,
you know, winter time, you know, they

512
00:41:56,400 --> 00:42:04,480
had winner. Well, they can and they had
winter, but I just I don't at the end of

513
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:10,640
the day I it don't matter to me. I I
think uh going forward uh that we done

514
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:14,880
this this year and hopefully we up it
again next year with our foot traffic. I

515
00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:21,520
think now we're kind of the place where
they want to come in. So I mean this is

516
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:26,160
maybe why we got this comment to us uh
to three different four sorry four

517
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:30,720
different people that got this comment
to do something like that with that

518
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:35,520
letter. So then
>> I mean even coming say put yourself in

519
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:39,359
their shoes if they put the $1,000 they
know that they got money going towards

520
00:42:37,119 --> 00:42:42,800
it versus just a contract then they know
that they're locked in. You know it's

521
00:42:41,119 --> 00:42:46,640
kind of a piece of mind for them too if
they have money up front on the table

522
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:51,599
then they know that they're going there.
Um just I I think that they're more apt

523
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:56,480
to be more comfortable knowing that
they've already committed with a check.

524
00:42:54,000 --> 00:43:03,040
Are the dates are the dates you guys are
fine with the as far as the the April

525
00:42:59,920 --> 00:43:10,079
and uh cuz honestly I wanted to do one
earlier but we did April and May so um

526
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:15,920
» I'm fine with that.
>> Do you Brady? Yeah, I you ask.

527
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:20,560
» Well, my question is, do some of these
vendors want to know before the

528
00:43:17,839 --> 00:43:25,280
beginning of May that for their
summertime schedule? If you know they're

529
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:31,440
put in the application, it doesn't
guarantee that they're getting the spot.

530
00:43:28,240 --> 00:43:35,680
Some of these vendors might want to know
more in advance, like in February or

531
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:39,760
March
whether or not they're doing an event.

532
00:43:37,839 --> 00:43:45,119
» Yeah. And that's one of the things that
why I brought it up because she did

533
00:43:42,319 --> 00:43:50,400
request that that uh you did it the
first in March and then in April. So it

534
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:54,640
would be March and April. But I was
reading other contracts. This is what

535
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:58,720
they had. I'm not saying we can't do
that. That's what you know I'm asking is

536
00:43:57,119 --> 00:44:02,560
what you guys want to do. Those are the
two dates that we're throwing in there.

537
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:08,000
But the other food vendor that we had
actually wanted it back a month on each

538
00:44:05,119 --> 00:44:10,480
of them. Well, we can that's that is a
due date, but it doesn't say that we

539
00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:14,319
can't send them out.
>> They can put their application in and we

540
00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:16,640
can approve them and say they're in.
They can pay ahead of time, but it's

541
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:21,760
just due on
>> Yeah, we can send this out next month.

542
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:26,480
» Yeah, that that's just the due date. We
can send these contracts out whenever we

543
00:44:24,319 --> 00:44:29,520
get it figured out, right? And then when
they send it back.

544
00:44:27,839 --> 00:44:32,720
» Yeah. Mark, did you have something?
>> I just had a question. Is there any

545
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:37,440
clause in there? What if there's an
unforeseen circumstance, a heart attack

546
00:44:35,119 --> 00:44:42,480
or illness or something where they can't
make it? Are they out that $1,000 or is

547
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:46,480
there any statement on a refund?
>> Oh, we never had one. I just

548
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:49,920
» I just was thinking, you know, vendors
>> I would think that would come to the

549
00:44:48,079 --> 00:44:54,800
board and then we would decide as a
board if we reimburse versus putting it

550
00:44:52,079 --> 00:45:01,319
in a clause on exception. We would I in
my opinion we would vote on it

551
00:44:56,400 --> 00:45:01,319
afterwards if they put a letter in.

552
00:45:03,359 --> 00:45:10,960
Austin,
>> I would just I'd edit that first line a

553
00:45:07,119 --> 00:45:15,839
little bit and just say we're continuing
or applications are due by 4 p.m. the

554
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:20,000
first Monday. Um, but after this is set
up to me, there's no reason why we

555
00:45:17,839 --> 00:45:24,880
couldn't accept or start reviewing them
whenever they're turned in. The verbiage

556
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:28,640
right there says all that are turned in
will be reviewed at the same time.

557
00:45:27,119 --> 00:45:33,920
» Say first come, first serve.
>> Yeah. No, see see because what happens I

558
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:39,119
do like that idea to say okay then in
that whether it be April or whenever

559
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:42,960
meeting that is the day that we're doing
all the food vendors like we get all our

560
00:45:41,359 --> 00:45:47,040
applications at one time so that way
we're not one in January one in February

561
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:51,359
then we're like oh shoot we approved
this person but now this person that we

562
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:54,720
really wanted the same food now we have
that way we have them all here one time

563
00:45:54,079 --> 00:45:58,480
and we're done
>> you're not favoring anybody going this

564
00:45:56,880 --> 00:46:01,040
way it's all here it's all
If you have something for

565
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:04,240
» I guess to me if we're going to do it
that way, I'd almost go back to your

566
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:08,480
original thought and maybe move
everything up one more month.

567
00:46:06,079 --> 00:46:13,280
» So go from March and April.
>> Yeah. I mean then I I like Brady's point

568
00:46:11,599 --> 00:46:18,079
there about people want clarity going
into the summer and by the time May

569
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:21,280
rolls around, you your schedule could be
filled up already too. And if you're

570
00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:24,160
trying to find a replacement vendor in
May

571
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:27,359
» and they they had requested that and but
the you know so I'm just trying to Yeah.

572
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:32,079
Whatever you guys think. Then my only
other point or question I guess is is it

573
00:46:29,839 --> 00:46:34,400
nine or 10 where people are at as far as
vendors? We had 12.

574
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:38,800
» We had 12
>> this year.

575
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:42,560
» I think I think we had 12 but 11 showed
up

576
00:46:41,359 --> 00:46:44,880
» and one left early
>> and one left early.

577
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:48,079
» 10 would be a great number.
>> Are we you know so we're making changes

578
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:50,240
to this y
>> from what we've done in the past.

579
00:46:49,599 --> 00:46:54,560
» Yep.
>> Are we just going to like say something

580
00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:59,200
on Facebook about that? How are the
people that have historically been here

581
00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:03,440
or have applied, how are they going to
know that we've made changes?

582
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:07,359
» So, we thought about it when we talked
about it about sending a letter saying

583
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:12,240
just so you know that this has changed
and here's what it's going to look like.

584
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:18,240
Um, that's what we thought we're about
doing just so they're aware of it. Um,

585
00:47:15,359 --> 00:47:23,359
the um I forget her name, but she didn't
care either way. She doesn't want the

586
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:29,560
verbage there, but I thought that's what
we when we talked about it. I think I

587
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:29,560
think it's a good idea.

588
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:39,760
» I would suggest contacting all of the
vendors that we had this year, letting

589
00:47:36,720 --> 00:47:45,599
them know that the contract has been
updated, give them first chance, and

590
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:53,720
then obviously push it out to other
vendors. Then if we don't hit that

591
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:53,720
certain number of whatever our max is.

592
00:47:54,480 --> 00:48:02,480
» Okay.
>> We change are you changing it to March

593
00:48:00,079 --> 00:48:05,800
April instead of April and May
>> once we

594
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:11,920
» All right. So after everything
>> I asked him to wait on that so we can

595
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:14,000
get a motion on what we wanted.
>> Well, let's get it right and then make a

596
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,599
motion.
>> All right. That's what you guys want to

597
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:21,960
do.
>> Yeah, let's do marching. Let's do it.

598
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:21,960
Let's Thanks, Brady.

599
00:48:27,599 --> 00:48:34,400
Then the only other thing that I was
wondering about are

600
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:38,640
the
extra passes.

601
00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:42,400
I know we there's
>> I think we have up to four. Well, I

602
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:46,800
yeah, that's what I was just wondering
because now we're giving away for the

603
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:53,440
wristbands, we were giving away two two
free days instead of just one,

604
00:48:49,599 --> 00:48:58,720
right? At the $15 mark, it's total of 25
if you pay for all five. So, I think

605
00:48:56,000 --> 00:49:03,280
that before we leave that at 15, we
should have the discussion

606
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:06,240
about what we're doing with
>> I don't think you should put dollar

607
00:49:04,720 --> 00:49:08,640
amount in there because what happens if
they just want to buy one day pass for

608
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:12,000
one person?
>> Oh, I see. So you're saying if he

609
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:14,960
includes
additional passes may be purchased.

610
00:49:14,240 --> 00:49:21,880
» Yeah. Just
>> Oh. Oh. Okay. Okay. Yeah.

611
00:49:17,839 --> 00:49:21,880
» Take out each

612
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:27,000
» good pitch. There you go.

613
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:33,000
» Okay.
March.

614
00:49:35,839 --> 00:49:44,319
» You good with that for your paperwork?
Okay. at the bottom there. Confirmation.

615
00:49:42,319 --> 00:49:50,160
» Only question I have is I imagine this
is for Kim. Is 4 o'lock on a meeting

616
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:56,400
date on on those Mondays. Is that enough
time for you to know who's a get off

617
00:49:53,440 --> 00:50:01,520
applications for the meeting to us or do
you need it earlier in the day?

618
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:05,040
I mean, do you need a cut off at 3:00?
Whatever time you want the cut off is

619
00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:08,079
when it is. You know, I just want to
make sure that you have enough time so

620
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:11,359
that you can get those to the board
meeting so we can look at it.

621
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:14,240
» Hopefully they don't everybody doesn't
wait until the last second that Kim's

622
00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:18,000
got 10 of them to look through.
>> The only other thing

623
00:50:16,319 --> 00:50:22,319
» the other thing you could possibly do is
stop it on Friday before that Monday so

624
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:25,440
you don't have to mess with it on
Monday. Yeah. I mean, if they're

625
00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:27,440
waiting, they're respectful enough
people. They should get this in in

626
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:31,040
advance.
>> And I I don't I don't say that, but she

627
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:34,960
I mean the Monday through Friday or
Monday through Thursday that the county

628
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:38,240
works. That's why I admitted that
>> I just want to make sure that you have

629
00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:41,280
enough time that you're not like at the
last second trying to print those off

630
00:50:39,599 --> 00:50:46,079
because there will be people that send
the applications in at 358.

631
00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:47,760
» I would imagine it would maybe be one.
So, I don't think it would be a big

632
00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:52,960
deal.
>> Okay. I'd like to make a motion to

633
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:57,040
accept the new food vendor contract.
>> Second.

634
00:50:54,240 --> 00:51:03,520
» Discussion. Discussion.
Is $1,000 too cheap?

635
00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:08,960
I think for this year I think it's right
where we need to be to be honest with

636
00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:14,160
you. I don't feel like if we go yes, but
if we go too much more I don't want to I

637
00:51:11,599 --> 00:51:18,400
don't want to get too
>> greedy at first. I want to make sure

638
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:21,040
that they can come in and do it again.
Dave,

639
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:25,200
» it's a big jump from where we were and I
just think that I agree. Let's prove our

640
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:28,079
value to them again and keep them hungry
to come back.

641
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:31,119
» Just wanted to ask. We didn't really
talk about that much.

642
00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:36,480
» Any more discussion?
All in favor then? I

643
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:42,800
» opposed. Okay, that passes. Thank you,
Michael. Okay, we're going to go um I'm

644
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:46,559
not sure why it says ticket pricing, but
it should say

645
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:49,520
well um
>> wristbands,

646
00:51:47,119 --> 00:51:55,119
» wristbands.
>> Um so we don't have to slide for that.

647
00:51:53,280 --> 00:52:02,800
So, I was waiting for a slide to come
up, but right now, just so you guys

648
00:51:58,319 --> 00:52:07,680
know, the the the ticket pricing is not
it was supposed to be armband pricing.

649
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:13,760
So, um what I'm getting at by that is
right now, Michael, we're brought to me

650
00:52:10,319 --> 00:52:19,359
that uh right now that we are at $15.
So, that takes care of three days. Well,

651
00:52:15,839 --> 00:52:24,640
all five is actually $25. So, if we get
four in there and we give them a day

652
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:32,880
free, that's actually $20
per per wristband. Um,

653
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:36,079
so what's your guys' thoughts on that
then?

654
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:41,599
» I I don't see why we wouldn't be able to
do 20 bucks for a wristband. Um, I I

655
00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:48,319
think five bucks, you know, to get in
whenever you want, go out, in and out,

656
00:52:44,720 --> 00:52:53,319
free will. I think that that that'd be
just in line with any other fair.

657
00:52:53,520 --> 00:53:03,599
Scott, um, couple questions. What was it
was a small percentage that used card

658
00:53:00,720 --> 00:53:08,640
right this year at the gate? Do you
think that'll go up next year now that

659
00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:14,880
people know?
>> I think so. So, I don't think it'll go

660
00:53:10,079 --> 00:53:20,000
up to overtake 50% of them, but I think
it'll go from 12 to 15% up to maybe 25

661
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:26,559
30.
>> I know. The reason why I ask is we've

662
00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:32,240
been at $5 since I believe 2020
>> co 19. That's when we $5, wasn't it?

663
00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:34,720
» No. Uh, they did it prior to us joining.
So, it's

664
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:36,880
» No, we changed it all the first years we
were on.

665
00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:40,720
» That would have been 19 then. That's
That's when we rechanged all of it. We

666
00:53:38,720 --> 00:53:42,800
went to a straight $5. Before that, they
had like car.

667
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:45,680
» Yep.
>> So, we've been

668
00:53:43,599 --> 00:53:49,040
» that part. Yes. Yes. That was 19.
>> I've haven't wanted to raise it

669
00:53:47,119 --> 00:53:55,599
personally because $5 you don't have to
deal with once.

670
00:53:51,760 --> 00:54:00,079
» Do we look at raising gate prices from 5
to $7?

671
00:53:57,440 --> 00:54:04,400
We all have to deal with $1 bill,
>> but that's only if they buy day passes

672
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:07,520
versus week,
>> right?

673
00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:12,640
Um, but we've been here at the same
price as a time that we increase our

674
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:18,960
attendance money.
>> So, the only thing on that, um, I don't

675
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:23,280
disagree with you about with the pricing
going up. I want one more year to be

676
00:54:21,599 --> 00:54:28,079
able to say to the community that we're
for real and then have the discussion

677
00:54:25,599 --> 00:54:32,640
the following year about, hey, I think
we might want to talk about ticket

678
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:38,880
pricing going up from five to whatever
we choose to do. Um, but I do think uh

679
00:54:35,839 --> 00:54:42,720
that there's a good idea or maybe a
little bit of a discussion to go in on

680
00:54:40,559 --> 00:54:48,559
this wristband thing. If we don't want
it, I understand. I'm saying we lost out

681
00:54:45,599 --> 00:54:53,280
on what we had was what he had was right
around 750 tickets, which is almost four

682
00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:57,440
grand.
So, when you look at it like that,

683
00:54:54,880 --> 00:55:01,839
that's just off of $5.
So, um, that's the only reason why I was

684
00:54:59,920 --> 00:55:06,240
looking at it that way when he brought
it to my attention that we're giving

685
00:55:04,079 --> 00:55:09,119
away two free days. Dave, did you have
something to add?

686
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:14,079
» Yeah. Um, the wristbands, I'm fine with
20. The daily pass at five, I'd just

687
00:55:11,599 --> 00:55:18,559
soon keep it there just because every
fair you go to, it's so expensive just

688
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:22,480
to get in the gate. And for me, with the
family, it's it's really frustrating.

689
00:55:20,240 --> 00:55:25,440
I've heard so many comments this year,
especially at the entertainment when

690
00:55:24,240 --> 00:55:29,680
you're sitting around with people just
talking and they're like five bucks to

691
00:55:27,359 --> 00:55:35,599
get in here to see all this and you know
it's people really consider it a value

692
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:42,960
and I'd rather have that their mindset
be like that and work our our um

693
00:55:40,079 --> 00:55:48,720
contributions from businesses and things
like that as hard as we did this past

694
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:52,640
year and and have a really satisfied
community, you

695
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:57,200
a group at the fair. So, I just think
there's not very often that people have

696
00:55:55,359 --> 00:56:00,720
see a perceived value in something when
they and as many people has come up to

697
00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:04,480
me and said five bucks is just there,
you know, they really appreciate that.

698
00:56:03,359 --> 00:56:09,280
So,
>> I would agree with you, Scott, on it's

699
00:56:06,720 --> 00:56:14,880
hard to do a dollar. So, I mean, if
we're going to up it, it's it'd be hard

700
00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:18,799
to go the next step and get eliminate $1
bills. So, it's like, okay, we either

701
00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:24,640
really up it or we keep it the same. And
I think we're probably not there yet. So

702
00:56:21,839 --> 00:56:28,640
I think five bucks probably is in line
with what we're trying to achieve. But

703
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:34,160
that's my opinion.
>> You got to remember that too. I'm a

704
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:38,400
farmer and so I'm always paying the
bills that everybody else is charging

705
00:56:35,839 --> 00:56:42,640
and Ben's a guy that charges the bills
and and get people pay him what he

706
00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:46,960
charges. So it's just a different
perspective.

707
00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:52,400
» Okay. Well, we're digging on Ben here. I
I I happen to the only thing I want to

708
00:56:50,079 --> 00:56:58,559
come back on is yes, it's almost an
extra four gram we're losing.

709
00:56:55,359 --> 00:57:04,079
» I the only question I ask with this I
have to bring it up is that what we're

710
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:08,960
doing is it it's at the cost of the
families that are coming in. I'm g we're

711
00:57:07,119 --> 00:57:13,839
we're just guessing. We didn't know cuz
we didn't have that. How many of them

712
00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:18,960
were the 4 and the kids in the families
>> was 750 armbands. Was that what we went

713
00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:22,720
through or is that what we sold?
>> Uh the went through. So

714
00:57:20,799 --> 00:57:24,240
» So how many of those were 4 k
>> exhibitors? Right.

715
00:57:23,599 --> 00:57:26,640
» Exhibitors.
>> Yeah. Exhibitors. Yeah.

716
00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:29,920
» You know because everyone
>> that's what that's what I just said. We

717
00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:33,599
don't have that. That's why I don't
know. But those guys are for free,

718
00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:38,480
right? They're getting their armband for
free once they sign their exhibitor. No,

719
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:43,280
we pay for it when you sign up on
>> We pay for it. Sorry. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

720
00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:46,960
» But it can be, not to make it
complicated, but you could have two

721
00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:50,160
different prices. The kids that sign up
for,

722
00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:55,599
» you know, there exhibitors at the fair
can be a price when they sign up and

723
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:59,040
then it's maybe more complicated, but I
guess everybody could just come and say

724
00:57:57,119 --> 00:58:04,880
they're Yeah. Everybody could just come
say they're an exhibitor, too.

725
00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:09,839
I I don't think another five bucks I
would but five bucks guys if you guys

726
00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:12,799
can't they can't afford this they
shouldn't come to the fair. I'm sorry

727
00:58:12,079 --> 00:58:17,040
but
>> we're not talking people coming to the

728
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:22,400
fair. We're talking about like the 4
kids that are showing their exhibits.

729
00:58:18,960 --> 00:58:26,160
» I got it. I get it. So, I guess I, you
know, it's different than charging

730
00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:32,319
someone that's coming to the fair to be
at the fair because I believe even if I

731
00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:35,599
have one project in,
maybe you guys can correct me if I'm

732
00:58:33,839 --> 00:58:39,200
wrong, but I believe if I have one
project that I enter that I want to

733
00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:44,799
bring to the fair, I still have to pay
$15 to get my armband. Even if I only

734
00:58:42,559 --> 00:58:47,599
come in, I made a picture and I just
wanted to bring it to the fair and I'm

735
00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:53,839
not going to come to the fair. I drop it
off Sunday. I still have to pay $15 for

736
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:55,839
my armband. Is that correct?
>> Negative.

737
00:58:54,640 --> 00:59:00,400
» Ne, that is not right.
>> No. When you come to the fair, you pick

738
00:58:57,920 --> 00:59:02,960
up your your your Marge, you can speak
up.

739
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:04,240
» Sure.
>> Yep.

740
00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:07,760
» And then
>> it is the buying

741
00:59:05,599 --> 00:59:10,720
» $5
armband.

742
00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:15,280
» So, it's $5 for your armband. Okay.
>> That's what I thought. Right.

743
00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:20,480
» Everybody else is paying the full 20.
>> Correct.

744
00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:26,400
So they get a $5 daily pass is what
you're saying. Awesome.

745
00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:31,480
» Right. If you look at
$6 entry versus $5

746
00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:42,400
and it takes when there's 14,000 people
that can

747
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:47,400
14,000 games
that really makes up the

748
00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:53,880
Columbus
had a $15,000

749
00:59:54,160 --> 01:00:00,119
entry. Maybe people have to buy,

750
01:00:02,799 --> 01:00:05,799
but

751
01:00:05,839 --> 01:00:12,240
donation money goes a heck of a lot
further.

752
01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:18,400
$15,000 is another
almost stage

753
01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:21,400
act.
So

754
01:00:25,359 --> 01:00:34,240
kind of thing to say that the time is
still a very small percent.

755
01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:39,280
» Yeah. The only thing that I
>> Yeah. The only thing like I agree with I

756
01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:43,680
I agree that we should up it, but I also
agree that we've had one really good

757
01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:48,000
year, right? I think we have another
really good year and show them that we

758
01:00:45,119 --> 01:00:51,280
can do it. Then it's a no then then
you're not going to have any backlash

759
01:00:49,599 --> 01:00:55,760
from it in my mind. If they do want to
give us backlash, well it wasn't just a

760
01:00:54,000 --> 01:01:00,720
one-year wonder, right? You know, we did
it we did it two years in a row. Now

761
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:08,160
buck off, you know, is
to Austin's point. Um I I I I understand

762
01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:12,319
all that. Um
I just I just trying to not muddy the

763
01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:19,200
water, I guess.
And and

764
01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:24,720
so I guess the the question I has is if
we go from 15 to 20 on the armband or if

765
01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:31,720
we keep everything the same for one more
year and and go into next year. It was

766
01:01:27,680 --> 01:01:31,720
so that's the discussion.

767
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:39,000
So anybody want to keep or Yeah. player,

768
01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:48,319
» you know, we made a big change this year
uh

769
01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:53,760
in that I thought that we bought brought
the community out and they found value,

770
01:01:52,079 --> 01:01:57,839
you know, and we we need to have the
community be part of that. We we just

771
01:01:55,680 --> 01:02:02,799
don't need mom and dads and grandpas and
grandmas to come and watch the little

772
01:02:00,079 --> 01:02:05,920
bingo there show his calf or pig or
sheep because they're going to come

773
01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:12,480
anyway.
But I and I don't, you know, I don't

774
01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:16,079
have a horse in this race, but it it's
just that I want I want I want the

775
01:02:14,559 --> 01:02:23,079
community to feel that when they come to
the Dun County Fair that that's the best

776
01:02:18,319 --> 01:02:23,079
damn money they spent for entertainment.

777
01:02:24,079 --> 01:02:28,319
» So,
we're just doing it on just the

778
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:34,480
wristbands, right?
>> That's Y. I guess I'd make a motion that

779
01:02:32,079 --> 01:02:39,760
we keep it the same this year as last
year and but hopefully we'll have the

780
01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:43,599
ability to track where the wristbands
are actually being used and we can

781
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:45,920
circle back next year.
>> Is there a second?

782
01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:49,960
» I'll second
>> discussion. More discussion.

783
01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:57,119
The motion is we keep it the same at
$15.

784
01:02:54,960 --> 01:03:04,559
All in favor? I
>> opposed. Okay. Leaving it alone. Okay.

785
01:03:01,839 --> 01:03:09,440
All right. Mike, you're back up.
All right. Outdoor vendors. So,

786
01:03:06,720 --> 01:03:13,760
discussion and possible action of this.
So,

787
01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:18,079
oh, where am I at? Commercial. Sorry.
Yeah, commercial. So, the commercial

788
01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:22,240
vendors.
Um,

789
01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:27,440
so this year, Austin, you can correct me
if I'm wrong, but we had $3,500 that we

790
01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:34,400
had to pay out. There was $2,200 brought
in for a minus of $1,300.

791
01:03:31,039 --> 01:03:39,359
Um, and with those $1,300, I know I get
told this a lot not to look at it like

792
01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:44,400
this, but we also give them $30 worth of
free wristbands to get in. So, but

793
01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:51,119
either way, we lost $1,300 in the
commercial building this year. Um, so

794
01:03:47,359 --> 01:03:58,559
the the discussion I have is that right
now the price is at $175

795
01:03:54,000 --> 01:04:05,039
for them to get in. Um, I guess my my
thought is are we going to keep losing

796
01:04:01,039 --> 01:04:11,280
money with 22 vendors and have to deal
with it or are we going to go ahead and

797
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:16,480
uh get rid of the uh uh vendors inside
and maybe make them outside? Um being

798
01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:21,280
that the I thought we were losing last
year, this year proved that we were. Um

799
01:04:19,599 --> 01:04:27,760
you want to scroll down on that if you
can please.

800
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:33,119
So that there there's the price. Now,
the only thing I changed there is if we

801
01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:39,640
did do that, the outdoor booth space
would be that instead of $125,

802
01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:39,640
but

803
01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:48,240
» $175.
>> Yep.

804
01:04:44,799 --> 01:04:55,520
» Discussion. Uh Austin, sorry. I think
this is a great idea. We have plenty of

805
01:04:50,240 --> 01:05:00,319
space. We have plenty of outlets. Um,
and uh, it would cause a lot less

806
01:04:57,280 --> 01:05:07,119
headaches for a lot of people
and create more indoor show space. I was

807
01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:12,319
just thinking about the map
auction and uh, if we had bad weather or

808
01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:16,960
something there, there's no reason why
it almost couldn't be held in there.

809
01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:22,359
You ever thought about it that way with
the bleachers and everything?

810
01:05:18,319 --> 01:05:22,359
» I think it was one time

811
01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:40,240
It'd be it'd be an idea. I I do like
this idea quite a bit.

812
01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:45,599
I know that uh that other vendor that
used to do the pipe and drape contacted

813
01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:50,720
us and the cost would be less than we
paid this year, closer to a,000 bucks.

814
01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:56,799
But
that still

815
01:05:53,200 --> 01:06:00,720
um doesn't really get us ahead with all
the we only have so much indoor real

816
01:05:58,480 --> 01:06:05,359
estate space at the fair. That's one of
the prime buildings. Well, one of the

817
01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:11,119
other things too is the growing aspect
of it. Um with the uh the the young the

818
01:06:09,119 --> 01:06:15,440
juniors and the seniors divisions and
the seniors wanting more space with the

819
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:19,440
quilts cuz right now we don't have
quilts um and that and they want them

820
01:06:17,599 --> 01:06:22,559
behind closed doors. Dave, do you got
something to add?

821
01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:26,000
» That that was my question is if you took
if the vendors were to leave the

822
01:06:24,079 --> 01:06:32,400
commercial building, what would how do
you envision that space being used?

823
01:06:28,480 --> 01:06:38,880
» I envision it uh being more of the 4 um
inviting that in there. I also have

824
01:06:34,960 --> 01:06:44,480
talked to uh Jeff um which he doesn't
seem to have an opinion right now at the

825
01:06:41,520 --> 01:06:50,000
moment about it, but uh um about moving
the tractors back indoors into that

826
01:06:47,760 --> 01:06:55,920
commercial building and then opening up
that building that the tractors are in

827
01:06:52,559 --> 01:07:01,119
to the poultry and rabbits and that
because that project has uh really took

828
01:06:58,240 --> 01:07:05,839
off. it as growing uh in some of the
species almost four times the amount uh

829
01:07:04,079 --> 01:07:12,319
I I want to say it was chickens that
were that but um and opening up that

830
01:07:08,799 --> 01:07:17,440
barn to allow more space um going
forward and that's so envisioning it

831
01:07:14,559 --> 01:07:21,599
that's how I envision it. I guess the
other part of that I know Larry had made

832
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:26,160
you made a comment at the county board
meeting about the commercial vendors and

833
01:07:24,079 --> 01:07:30,079
how often how long some of them have
been there. So, I guess I'd be curious

834
01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:34,960
to your thoughts on indoor versus
outdoor.

835
01:07:32,559 --> 01:07:40,880
» Well, the first thing
first thing I don't want to do is leave

836
01:07:36,559 --> 01:07:47,839
puddles of oil on that concrete
uh from these 60-year-old tractors.

837
01:07:45,359 --> 01:07:54,400
And uh the only tractors that I can ever
remember that we've had in there in the

838
01:07:49,920 --> 01:08:00,559
past had been Deb's brother brought uh
their uh Gordon's uh tractors in and

839
01:07:58,799 --> 01:08:06,400
there was cardboard down and everything
like that, but uh I don't drive anything

840
01:08:03,599 --> 01:08:14,480
that doesn't leak oil. You know, I'm all
for, you know, keeps the dust down. But

841
01:08:11,200 --> 01:08:20,159
uh I just happened to
uh before the meeting tonight uh look at

842
01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:28,400
the um one of the papers out of the Twin
Cities and the wasn't the top banner but

843
01:08:24,400 --> 01:08:35,040
it was the bottom half and uh it had to
do with uh political ads and people you

844
01:08:33,199 --> 01:08:40,799
know stating their political views and
putting it out there

845
01:08:37,759 --> 01:08:47,839
even at the Minnesota State fair
is a noticeable thing. I mean, I I

846
01:08:43,600 --> 01:08:53,679
didn't read the article, but uh
you know, some people like to come to

847
01:08:49,520 --> 01:08:58,080
the fair to agree with a political uh uh
party and other folks like to come to

848
01:08:55,839 --> 01:09:05,199
the fair to give the Dickens to the
political party. And uh

849
01:09:02,239 --> 01:09:10,239
uh those folks probably aren't
interested in map. They're probably not

850
01:09:07,279 --> 01:09:16,239
interested in the chicken show and
probably don't even know that we got a

851
01:09:11,759 --> 01:09:23,359
dog show and uh uh think that they got
singing at the grand stand or the stage

852
01:09:19,839 --> 01:09:27,520
is a you guy with long hair
but you know so so all I'm saying is is

853
01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:34,640
that a fair offers a lot of different
things to different people and uh I

854
01:09:31,199 --> 01:09:39,279
don't like being uh
uh asked

855
01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:45,199
buy a knife or anything else walking
down the thing, but just say no thanks.

856
01:09:41,279 --> 01:09:50,239
You know, uh uh but I look at the folks
that come there representing their

857
01:09:47,040 --> 01:09:54,159
church. I look at uh people coming there
representing their business, Fleet Farm.

858
01:09:52,560 --> 01:09:59,280
I look at the sheriff's department come
there representing Dun County,

859
01:09:57,120 --> 01:10:05,679
uh
and uh everything in between. So maybe

860
01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:14,239
maybe we just put them against the wall
and have one row and uh um raise the

861
01:10:10,640 --> 01:10:19,120
price and and instead of eliminating it
uh cut it back and make it more

862
01:10:16,400 --> 01:10:27,120
expensive to be there and see if this is
really what they want to do. Um, and uh,

863
01:10:24,159 --> 01:10:32,080
uh,
you know, I don't get down the Midway

864
01:10:29,440 --> 01:10:35,120
very often anymore, but there was a time
when you'd walk down there with your

865
01:10:33,440 --> 01:10:39,360
buddies and every guy would want you to
throw the softball at the three milk

866
01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:44,480
bottles and stuff like that. So, I was
at the Minnesota State Fair one year uh

867
01:10:42,159 --> 01:10:48,239
showing cattle and I'm with five or six
other guys that were down there and

868
01:10:46,239 --> 01:10:53,440
we're going down there and the midway
guy says, "Hey, Slim, come on over

869
01:10:50,159 --> 01:10:58,080
here." I'm looking around.
He says, "See if you can three shots

870
01:10:56,480 --> 01:11:04,719
here to knock down three ducks and
you'll win this big prize." And uh uh of

871
01:11:02,159 --> 01:11:07,920
course I didn't hit any of them. And I
guy took the gun away from me and he

872
01:11:06,719 --> 01:11:11,760
slapped me on the back and he said,
"Hippie, you gave it all you had."

873
01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:16,880
» Wow.
>> That was back in the 60s. Guys called me

874
01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:21,280
hippie forever after that. So, I mean,
there's a fair experience.

875
01:11:18,719 --> 01:11:26,480
» Larry, do you do you think if we had a
tent with walls on it that say could be

876
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:31,120
closed up at the end of the night,
right? So, they we could have tables out

877
01:11:28,800 --> 01:11:35,120
there and it' be a tent with walls.
>> That that would be good enough for these

878
01:11:33,120 --> 01:11:39,520
guys. So they don't have to completely
tear down every day. But

879
01:11:37,120 --> 01:11:43,280
» I would think that would work for for a
couple of reasons. And the other other

880
01:11:41,280 --> 01:11:47,600
reason would be is that,
>> you know, it's not fun being the guy

881
01:11:45,840 --> 01:11:50,960
that has to make sure things are locked
up

882
01:11:49,280 --> 01:11:54,880
and that stuff's going to be there next
morning, you know, and the county guys

883
01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:59,120
have done a good job with that, but I
never really cared for being that guy.

884
01:11:56,880 --> 01:12:01,520
» And I get that. But when I looked at a
lot of these vendors that you just spoke

885
01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:04,640
about
>> at Downsville days, where were they all

886
01:12:03,920 --> 01:12:08,880
at?
>> All outside.

887
01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:14,320
» Every one of them. Walmart,
>> the police department, the homemakers.

888
01:12:12,320 --> 01:12:20,480
Um, I've seen those girls outside, by
the way. Um, everything that I was there

889
01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:25,360
seeing was all outside. I'm saying that
they can make it still an outdoor vendor

890
01:12:22,640 --> 01:12:30,640
pricing and stop. All I'm getting at is
when I go through there, I see so much

891
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:34,159
potential space to add to the show. When
you give something space to grow is what

892
01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:39,280
I'm getting at. It's going to grow. That
that project in the commercial building

893
01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:42,640
has grown. And I I just think that I
don't personally want to walk through

894
01:12:40,800 --> 01:12:46,880
there. Why? Because I'm getting
solicited for something that I don't

895
01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:52,239
want anything to do of. And if you look
at that building, where is everybody

896
01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:55,520
else? They're away from it. I I just
want to make sure that we're giving

897
01:12:53,760 --> 01:12:59,040
every and I get that point. I just want
to make sure that everybody gets the

898
01:12:56,800 --> 01:13:02,320
same as you we say fair experience by
not getting heckled when they want to go

899
01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:05,440
see something that's in a commercial
building like a arts and crafts or a

900
01:13:04,480 --> 01:13:09,360
Lego thing.
>> So we do have plenty of real estate to

901
01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:12,960
put them outside too as far as like
between the commercial barn and dairy

902
01:13:10,800 --> 01:13:18,960
barn. We we got that whole row we could
line with tents. Well, there's not

903
01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:23,679
there's nothing wrong in in doing things
different and I don't want to drag it

904
01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:28,080
say that this is the way it's got to be.
I'm just saying for my own personal

905
01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:32,000
opinion, you know,
I really enjoy seeing those people come

906
01:13:29,840 --> 01:13:38,320
back year after year and if they come
back to a different spot, they come back

907
01:13:33,440 --> 01:13:43,360
to a different spot. And uh uh but I
don't want to I don't want to drip oil

908
01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:47,920
on that.
>> Right. Dave,

909
01:13:44,880 --> 01:13:51,600
» I think uh if one of the things that uh
I had heard about was the possibility of

910
01:13:49,679 --> 01:13:55,920
separating the junior exhibitors from
the open class. Correct.

911
01:13:53,679 --> 01:13:59,360
» And I think that would be really neat
for the people coming to look at

912
01:13:57,280 --> 01:14:04,560
exhibits to know what exactly what stuff
the kids made versus what was open

913
01:14:01,760 --> 01:14:07,920
class. And as far as the oil tractor, I
think we can hand take care of that if

914
01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:12,320
it were to go to the building. I just
think that that antique tractor display,

915
01:14:10,640 --> 01:14:15,280
there's so many people that I talked to
that want to bring more tractors next

916
01:14:14,480 --> 01:14:20,159
year.
I mean, uh, I sat next to a guy who's

917
01:14:17,679 --> 01:14:22,960
had a a Massie that he's been working on
for years, but he's like, "Next year

918
01:14:21,679 --> 01:14:28,080
that tractor's coming and I'm going to
have it done and bring it here." So, I

919
01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:32,000
mean, I just think there's a lot of uh
pent up demand from what happened this

920
01:14:29,920 --> 01:14:35,520
year and from people. So, I went to
Northern Wisconsin. I think there's like

921
01:14:33,440 --> 01:14:40,159
five tractors or six tractors there or
something like that. I think we got a

922
01:14:38,239 --> 01:14:44,239
good thing going. I think there's
nostalgia when it's in the old highway

923
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:47,360
shop with the bricks and the great
lights and

924
01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:52,320
» that that's a pretty cool part. But how
many man hours do you think Brady that

925
01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:57,760
we have just in running electrical for
those commercial vendor booths? At least

926
01:14:54,400 --> 01:15:05,600
a couple man hours. So you could factor
$100, $200 saved just in and all those

927
01:15:02,640 --> 01:15:12,760
100 plus pound cords that are running
300 ft with distro boxes and everything

928
01:15:08,560 --> 01:15:12,760
else. It' be eliminated.

929
01:15:15,840 --> 01:15:23,199
» Any more? Ben,
>> are we ready for a motion?

930
01:15:20,719 --> 01:15:31,440
» All right. I move that we uh take the
commercial uh building as far as the the

931
01:15:28,880 --> 01:15:36,960
Republican, Democrat, all the booths and
we give them

932
01:15:33,840 --> 01:15:40,960
a spot outside under a tent and we can
discuss later on where we put them and

933
01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:46,960
then open it up for the commercial
building to for the projects to grow and

934
01:15:43,600 --> 01:15:50,480
then the price to uh go through as far
as this pricing that we had discussed.

935
01:15:49,679 --> 01:15:54,080
Second.
>> I'll second.

936
01:15:52,159 --> 01:15:57,199
» Discussion.
Scott,

937
01:15:54,719 --> 01:16:00,400
» why do we have to supply a tent? Why
can't they just bring if they want to be

938
01:15:58,800 --> 01:16:03,199
a vendor and they're outside, you bring
your own tent?

939
01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:06,239
» Did I say supply?
>> Not supply a tent, but they can bring a

940
01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:09,360
tent.
>> They supply a tent.

941
01:16:07,120 --> 01:16:12,719
» Yeah, they can bring a tent, but it was
Yeah, I was under the impression that

942
01:16:10,800 --> 01:16:16,960
you were saying buying a big big tent
because that was came up at one point.

943
01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:23,520
» Okay. Um, more discussion,
>> you know, Mr. chairman, if we had if we

944
01:16:20,400 --> 01:16:27,600
did have an outside um
uh display, you know, there's nothing

945
01:16:25,360 --> 01:16:33,520
more fun than a dunk tank. And I mean,
you can't have a dunk tank inside.

946
01:16:31,199 --> 01:16:36,960
» I know a guy.
>> I know a guy

947
01:16:34,320 --> 01:16:39,960
» saying it's a heck of a good time.
>> I

948
01:16:40,640 --> 01:16:47,440
try one of the
>> You should have saw when he went down

949
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:49,280
the slide getting him up off of that.
They have.

950
01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:54,640
» All right. Reel back in, boy.
>> Back into uh Iowa State Fair had a they

951
01:16:52,400 --> 01:17:01,600
always do an animal calling contest and
they also this year did a mom calling

952
01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:05,920
contest from young young kids. And so
couple things like that and whatever too

953
01:17:04,159 --> 01:17:10,000
I think would spice things up a little.
But

954
01:17:06,239 --> 01:17:16,400
» so so going into what the tents outside,
I only ask that you think what we have I

955
01:17:13,600 --> 01:17:19,679
know my opinion. What is your opinion as
far as putting you had mentioned it

956
01:17:18,239 --> 01:17:24,239
earlier someone asked a question about
putting those tents outside? We have

957
01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:26,960
enough space
>> then

958
01:17:25,120 --> 01:17:30,800
» we got enough power we can run it home.
That's my biggest concern is

959
01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:34,960
» there's there's exterior outlets
everywhere that we put booths out there

960
01:17:32,960 --> 01:17:40,080
on the east side of the building.
>> And if we adjusted where we put a few of

961
01:17:38,239 --> 01:17:46,080
those portaotties on the south side of
the Finetti, if they actually wrap more

962
01:17:42,239 --> 01:17:51,760
around the corner behind um the uh the
one food truck, so they'd be facing

963
01:17:48,800 --> 01:17:55,920
west, then that would give that whole
line which has exterior outlets. So,

964
01:17:54,400 --> 01:18:00,560
» but that's the other thing. That's why
I'm saying a lot of these on here, uh,

965
01:17:58,800 --> 01:18:05,040
when they come, they're not requesting
any power and all of a sudden they're

966
01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:07,920
plugging into a 110 outlet and we're not
expecting that cuz that's the one that

967
01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:11,760
they've always had and they're like, we
know that spot and that's why that lady

968
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:15,360
was so maybe that was you so adamant
about being where she was because she

969
01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:20,239
knew there was an outlet there. Well, on
her application, when I look back, there

970
01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:26,800
was no need for electricity. Most of
them didn't need electricity. So,

971
01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:31,120
» we also have the the oak tree pedestal
that we wouldn't be putting a food

972
01:18:28,719 --> 01:18:36,640
vendor at anymore,
>> as well as interior uh 50 amp outlets on

973
01:18:34,640 --> 01:18:43,440
the inside of that overhead garage door
of the FinTe Center that I ran cords out

974
01:18:39,840 --> 01:18:49,520
from that would easily reach vendor row
with the DRO boxes we already had. So,

975
01:18:46,800 --> 01:18:52,960
we're good.
>> Any more discussion?

976
01:18:54,159 --> 01:19:03,199
Okay. So, the motion's been made. All in
favor say I. Opposed.

977
01:19:01,120 --> 01:19:08,080
Okay. Passes.
Okay. Um, then it'll just go to the

978
01:19:05,679 --> 01:19:13,120
outdoor vendor. That's what we have up
here as far as pricing. And that pricing

979
01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:19,920
just needs to be voted on. That's the
only thing we changed. So, if you guys

980
01:19:15,840 --> 01:19:23,840
are good with the outdoor fender,
what do you guys want to do with that

981
01:19:21,360 --> 01:19:27,520
pricing from 125 to 17?
>> What was indoor pricing?

982
01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:30,000
» Right there. It's 125.
>> Oh, indoor. Sorry.

983
01:19:28,560 --> 01:19:34,400
» Indoor was 175.
>> Okay. But now they're all outdoors, so

984
01:19:31,760 --> 01:19:39,760
you might as well make them all.
So, I make a motion to have all outdoor

985
01:19:37,040 --> 01:19:41,679
vendors at 175.
>> There second.

986
01:19:40,880 --> 01:19:44,679
» Second.
>> Discussion.

987
01:19:44,880 --> 01:19:47,880
Uh,

988
01:19:49,920 --> 01:19:58,120
I guess awesome. What if there's an
outdoor vendor that comes in there

989
01:19:55,120 --> 01:19:58,120
» that

990
01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:07,280
needs extra space? Any verbiage that
isn't a 10 by 30 or a 10 by 20 like the

991
01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:11,440
outdoor bouncy castle?
>> Yeah,

992
01:20:07,760 --> 01:20:16,480
» that's true. So, so the 10x10 booth as
we have discussed before about that that

993
01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:18,640
now goes to a 10 by 20. Now they're
paying for is that what you're getting

994
01:20:18,159 --> 01:20:24,080
at?
>> Yeah. If if that's if we just calculate

995
01:20:21,679 --> 01:20:27,280
it maybe on that square footage.
>> We didn't know how to we didn't know how

996
01:20:25,679 --> 01:20:31,760
to when I asked Michael to help me out
with this. I didn't know how to put that

997
01:20:29,679 --> 01:20:35,760
verbiage in there. So, I was just
thinking as when Kim said to that

998
01:20:33,600 --> 01:20:38,719
person, well, that's an extra, you know,
that's 300 bucks.

999
01:20:37,040 --> 01:20:43,120
» Yeah. 325.
>> Yeah. Let's let's just say

1000
01:20:41,600 --> 01:20:47,600
u
size adjustable at same cost per square

1001
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:50,880
foot.
Is that fair?

1002
01:20:48,719 --> 01:20:56,560
» Yes.
>> For example, the outdoor bouncy castle

1003
01:20:52,880 --> 01:21:03,280
is 20 by 20. They just pay that same
square footage rate of the 10 by 10.

1004
01:21:01,679 --> 01:21:11,679
Otherwise that guy if he would have
showed up would have got a extremely

1005
01:21:05,920 --> 01:21:18,640
good deal because there was no cap.
>> Okay. Yeah. Say that

1006
01:21:13,760 --> 01:21:23,679
» uh uh outdoor boo space is 175 for the
10T by 10 foot.

1007
01:21:20,800 --> 01:21:27,040
» Um
>> you have a 10 by 20 that's going to be

1008
01:21:25,760 --> 01:21:30,480
350, right?
>> Yeah. Adjust

1009
01:21:28,080 --> 01:21:33,480
» 175 for 100. But how would you so
adjustable?

1010
01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:41,520
» Like the person with the with the
>> with the with the bow person like he he

1011
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:45,679
was going to call and say, "Hey, I need
more space. Can I get two?" You know, if

1012
01:21:43,920 --> 01:21:46,800
someone's coming with something bigger,
they'll just

1013
01:21:46,320 --> 01:21:53,040
» Yeah.
>> because it specified a 10 by 10 space.

1014
01:21:51,199 --> 01:21:55,040
» It does have Yeah. Like Kim said, it's
got the quantity right on there.

1015
01:21:54,320 --> 01:22:02,000
» Yeah.
>> Yeah.

1016
01:21:57,520 --> 01:22:06,000
» Just more discussion. Yep, we're good.
>> Any more discussion?

1017
01:22:04,080 --> 01:22:10,639
» All right. All in favor with the motion.
I

1018
01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:20,080
» post. Okay. Passes at 175 for an
outdoor. Okay. Um judges contract

1019
01:22:16,080 --> 01:22:25,920
affidavits. We had uh uh revised it. Do
you have that?

1020
01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:30,560
Yeah. the we had uh updated it um on the
affidavit or whatever one we'll we'll

1021
01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:33,520
start with one
>> sure

1022
01:22:32,560 --> 01:22:38,800
» um
>> so this is

1023
01:22:35,840 --> 01:22:43,920
one that we used this year
>> correct

1024
01:22:41,679 --> 01:22:50,000
» so unfortunately
>> unfortunately I didn't uh do like the

1025
01:22:47,440 --> 01:22:55,840
the red and green font to show the
differences I created a whole new.

1026
01:22:52,639 --> 01:22:58,960
» Yeah, I know. Terrible of me, Scott. I I
apologize.

1027
01:22:56,639 --> 01:23:03,440
» So, what we So, what we did go ahead and
put the new one up there. So, the reason

1028
01:23:01,040 --> 01:23:11,280
for the updated version was it had a lot
of it that uh wasn't uh for the for what

1029
01:23:08,800 --> 01:23:18,920
wording, so to speak. Uh so, we made it
more correct. Um go scroll down.

1030
01:23:15,920 --> 01:23:18,920
Okay.

1031
01:23:21,199 --> 01:23:28,880
Okay. So like right there that hereby
certify the recorded entries attach

1032
01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:33,520
before the departments there was
nothing. There was only a line for your

1033
01:23:30,639 --> 01:23:37,600
department. So if she did for example in
the commercial building she did foods

1034
01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:40,719
and horiculture I don't know she
couldn't put that on there. She was

1035
01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:45,679
writing all the things she did. This
gives them or he gives them for uh it

1036
01:23:43,679 --> 01:23:48,880
it's not much but it's something. And
scroll down

1037
01:23:47,360 --> 01:23:54,600
» and then circles.
>> Yep. Yep. And then this is what it looks

1038
01:23:51,280 --> 01:23:54,600
like now.

1039
01:23:56,639 --> 01:24:02,560
So now it asks the department number,
the department name. So it keeps

1040
01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:08,800
everything a lot more cleaner when it
goes to Marge and Michael. Right, Marge?

1041
01:24:05,920 --> 01:24:13,120
You liking that? Okay. A lot cleaner. It
gives the judge's information right down

1042
01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:17,920
there along with the license. And for
Kim, it tells her that's an animal judge

1043
01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:21,920
or nonl animal judge. And all you got to
do is mark the box instead of writing it

1044
01:24:19,679 --> 01:24:26,320
all in. It's a signature of the judge
and then signature from Kim and away we

1045
01:24:24,480 --> 01:24:31,760
go. So that main part right at the
bottom as you see in the 1 1234

1046
01:24:29,040 --> 01:24:38,400
was taken out. This is what was put into
place along with the 250 and the 160 and

1047
01:24:35,360 --> 01:24:43,600
the name uh or not the name sorry the
phone number was added along with the

1048
01:24:41,199 --> 01:24:49,120
bottom two signatures.
A checkbox. Are we good with that?

1049
01:24:46,320 --> 01:24:51,040
That's that one. Are you uh you guys see
anything wrong with the judge's

1050
01:24:50,239 --> 01:24:55,639
affidavit?
>> Do you need an email in there, too, or

1051
01:24:52,639 --> 01:24:55,639
no?

1052
01:24:57,600 --> 01:25:04,000
» Uh where are you?
>> You do you need an email in there, too?

1053
01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:06,000
» Oh, for the judge's information.
>> It's a good idea.

1054
01:25:04,960 --> 01:25:11,760
» Yeah.
>> Okay, we'll add the email in there.

1055
01:25:07,760 --> 01:25:16,080
» Did you take that off of the cap form?
Okay.

1056
01:25:14,480 --> 01:25:18,480
» Yeah. Yep.
>> Ours is actually a little bit more

1057
01:25:17,520 --> 01:25:23,679
in-depth
>> than the one that you can get off the

1058
01:25:20,159 --> 01:25:28,679
DadCap website.
>> Add email. Good catch.

1059
01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:38,560
» Okay. Anything else?
>> Approve.

1060
01:25:33,840 --> 01:25:42,800
» I move to approve the new judges form
with the email added to it.

1061
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:47,000
» Is there a second?
Uh discussion.

1062
01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:56,239
All in favor? I
>> opposed. Okay, that passes. Okay, that

1063
01:25:52,880 --> 01:25:59,600
was the affidavit. This is going to go
with the contract, right? That was part

1064
01:25:58,880 --> 01:26:04,320
of it.
>> Or the kitty tractor pull.

1065
01:26:01,920 --> 01:26:12,400
» Okay, so yeah, that's right. I have that
the um the kitty tractor pull uh

1066
01:26:09,440 --> 01:26:19,840
contract. Um,
so it is $600 going into next year is

1067
01:26:16,320 --> 01:26:24,719
what she has sent us. Um, we have the
right to do what you guys want. I'm just

1068
01:26:22,159 --> 01:26:30,480
letting you know that uh if we want to
sign the contract, she had sent an email

1069
01:26:28,320 --> 01:26:33,360
over with
what it's going to look like. And I

1070
01:26:32,000 --> 01:26:36,360
should have had it pulled up, but I
don't.

1071
01:26:42,480 --> 01:26:47,199
I thought we had like a couple years
left.

1072
01:26:45,520 --> 01:26:55,280
» That's what I was going to talk about is
that uh uh we we did but uh she had she

1073
01:26:51,920 --> 01:27:02,800
she was wrong. That was our last year
and and for the contract. So we're not

1074
01:26:58,080 --> 01:27:10,440
underneath any more contracts. We were
up to uh you guys to um you want this.

1075
01:27:10,480 --> 01:27:16,239
Alls I know is we're going to have to
probably find a new young man to pull

1076
01:27:13,199 --> 01:27:20,719
that sled back cuz I don't know if Jack
is going to be there. Jack said it was

1077
01:27:18,239 --> 01:27:24,719
that he enjoyed it because he used to do
it when he was a kid, but he says it's a

1078
01:27:22,239 --> 01:27:28,400
lot. You know, for us to pay 600 bucks,
it's a great experience for kids. But

1079
01:27:26,480 --> 01:27:33,600
Jack's like, "Dad, that's actually quite
a bit of work that sl back how many

1080
01:27:31,280 --> 01:27:37,159
times?" You know, so it's like we
probably, you know,

1081
01:27:37,440 --> 01:27:42,239
» No, Jack had Jack had to
>> How many kids do we have this year

1082
01:27:41,760 --> 01:27:46,800
pulling?
>> Him and his family did the whole

1083
01:27:43,679 --> 01:27:52,880
» No, Jack pulled it back every time.
uh with what Larry had told me. Larry,

1084
01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:59,280
do you remember there was six I want to
say 16? Was that correct?

1085
01:27:55,920 --> 01:28:04,239
» 17 something like that.
>> It wasn't anyways.

1086
01:28:01,440 --> 01:28:11,440
» And uh the only thing I can say about
the tractor pull is that unless you've

1087
01:28:07,120 --> 01:28:14,880
got somebody that wants to do that, you
know, you're not going to cut across the

1088
01:28:12,800 --> 01:28:22,080
fairgrounds to come and watch it. you
know, it's it's strictly a uh like a

1089
01:28:18,639 --> 01:28:25,679
little britches thing. Uh you know, if
you got somebody participating, you're

1090
01:28:23,920 --> 01:28:31,520
going to watch. If you don't have
anybody participating, you're not going

1091
01:28:27,600 --> 01:28:36,480
to watch. And uh we kind of fell down a
little bit this year and that we didn't

1092
01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:42,480
really have any prize money to give out
like we have in the past. And we we we

1093
01:28:38,480 --> 01:28:49,600
had some Culver's gift certificates. Uh
I don't I don't know what it would do if

1094
01:28:44,960 --> 01:28:54,719
we uh promote it, but
the whole whole thing is is that it uh

1095
01:28:52,560 --> 01:29:00,880
you know has classes from four and under
up to what 11 or 12 and these kids come

1096
01:28:58,639 --> 01:29:05,280
back every year and grandparents come
back every year, you know, and so so for

1097
01:29:03,760 --> 01:29:10,480
the people that are involved in it, it's
a big deal. for nobody for everybody

1098
01:29:07,199 --> 01:29:15,040
else, you know, they're worried about
the price of cheese curds or, you know,

1099
01:29:13,120 --> 01:29:20,320
something with the ban. You people come
to the fair for different reasons. This

1100
01:29:16,560 --> 01:29:25,280
is just one of many reasons. So, depends
on what you want to do. It would seem to

1101
01:29:22,080 --> 01:29:30,480
me if you had the uh the pipe and drape
out of there that would give you a

1102
01:29:27,440 --> 01:29:36,080
little more room. Uh it was absolutely
not successful in thinking that uh

1103
01:29:34,400 --> 01:29:40,719
grandpa and grandma and mom and dad are
going to be uh up in the bleachers

1104
01:29:38,159 --> 01:29:44,159
because they're right down there taking
the picture right in front of the kid

1105
01:29:42,080 --> 01:29:48,239
and the kids
brothers and sisters.

1106
01:29:46,480 --> 01:29:55,280
So, I mean, you know, it's if you're
there and you got somebody doing it, it

1107
01:29:51,679 --> 01:29:59,120
means something otherwise,
you know,

1108
01:29:57,360 --> 01:30:02,800
» correct me if I'm
>> wrong, but

1109
01:30:00,880 --> 01:30:06,880
» wasn't that kind of a last second thing
where we didn't even think we were going

1110
01:30:04,480 --> 01:30:08,960
to the kitty track pull and all of a
sudden

1111
01:30:07,760 --> 01:30:12,639
» they called.
>> They called and I mean it was like a

1112
01:30:11,520 --> 01:30:16,719
last second thing,
>> correct? Is she looking for a multi-year

1113
01:30:14,960 --> 01:30:19,600
contract or can we do a one-year
contract?

1114
01:30:17,120 --> 01:30:22,480
» We court if I can. I'm sorry I don't
have the email. I thought I had it

1115
01:30:21,120 --> 01:30:26,560
earlier and I don't know where I found
it, but it was a one-year contract.

1116
01:30:24,719 --> 01:30:33,120
There wasn't anything multi-year on it.
It was just the $600 you supply the

1117
01:30:29,760 --> 01:30:38,000
trophies like we're saying and uh and
money cash prizes.

1118
01:30:35,679 --> 01:30:44,560
But it does not it did not state how
much it was on there for cash prize. So,

1119
01:30:39,760 --> 01:30:49,679
was it $5, $10? nothing like that. Um,
but so our cost would be right around

1120
01:30:47,360 --> 01:30:54,239
$700 is what I had figured out to put on
this kitty tractor pull.

1121
01:30:51,760 --> 01:30:58,080
» Our cost,
>> Michael.

1122
01:30:56,080 --> 01:31:00,800
» So the the company that we're using
right now, are they state sanctioned?

1123
01:31:00,159 --> 01:31:06,880
» Yes. Correct.
>> They are. Okay. So it sounds like we're

1124
01:31:03,600 --> 01:31:08,080
paying you said $600 and then yet we're
supplying

1125
01:31:07,440 --> 01:31:12,000
» $100.
>> Yeah. are supplying whatever the winners

1126
01:31:10,080 --> 01:31:14,080
get, whether it's ribbons or trophies or
whatever,

1127
01:31:12,880 --> 01:31:19,360
» and then
>> like a prize or a monetary prize for

1128
01:31:18,159 --> 01:31:23,600
that.
>> Have we considered looking at other

1129
01:31:21,440 --> 01:31:27,040
pedal pole companies that would handle
everything?

1130
01:31:25,679 --> 01:31:33,520
I mean, because it sounds like Troy,
your son was pushing everything back,

1131
01:31:29,840 --> 01:31:38,560
which I feel like that is a liability. A
and B. It should be

1132
01:31:37,040 --> 01:31:42,239
» I was at the voice for last weekend and
they did everything.

1133
01:31:40,239 --> 01:31:45,760
» He pulled it back and
>> they took everything in

1134
01:31:43,679 --> 01:31:51,920
» at least nobody to supply it.
>> In my experience hiring pedal pole

1135
01:31:48,880 --> 01:31:58,400
companies, they handle everything. Y
>> uh the one that I uh hired for Duran

1136
01:31:55,600 --> 01:32:05,040
Funfest, I don't remember the exact cost
of it, but it was X amount of money for

1137
01:32:00,480 --> 01:32:09,679
them to host the the poll. And then if
you wanted ribbon, if you wanted them to

1138
01:32:07,280 --> 01:32:13,679
supply the prizes, whether it be ribbon
or trophy, it was X amount of money. So

1139
01:32:11,440 --> 01:32:18,880
it was X amount for ribbons or X amount
for trophies. They handled everything.

1140
01:32:16,639 --> 01:32:24,560
So I just I guess I question if we want
to continue doing it. It sounds like

1141
01:32:22,480 --> 01:32:26,880
should we hire someone that is handling
everything?

1142
01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:30,000
» Company were they say sanctioned?
>> Yes.

1143
01:32:27,280 --> 01:32:33,920
» Okay,
>> Dave.

1144
01:32:30,639 --> 01:32:38,560
» Uh I I guess that kind of Michael kind
of gets to my point. Downville just had

1145
01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:41,760
it where they have 70ome kids pulling.
>> I think something like that. So

1146
01:32:40,480 --> 01:32:47,440
» we had 65.
>> I think maybe a different vendor might

1147
01:32:43,440 --> 01:32:52,480
be better for the fair too. But
>> and awesome. Luckily, we don't have to

1148
01:32:49,600 --> 01:32:56,960
pay Larry for his announcing otherwise.
We'd really be Well, but that's one more

1149
01:32:54,639 --> 01:33:02,040
thing that we have to do ourselves,
>> right?

1150
01:32:58,239 --> 01:33:02,040
» And it cost us money.

1151
01:33:02,880 --> 01:33:10,000
» I'm not going to be available. Don't
take I got to go. Thanks.

1152
01:33:07,520 --> 01:33:15,920
Is there any chance you could contact
that other company that you had and we

1153
01:33:13,280 --> 01:33:20,480
can just table this until next meeting
when maybe we have another option as to

1154
01:33:18,400 --> 01:33:23,679
a company that would be all-incclusive
and what that would cost then we can

1155
01:33:23,120 --> 01:33:29,120
visit it.
>> We can I got the other information just

1156
01:33:25,520 --> 01:33:34,239
now got the techie going on here. So the
sponsored uh we have to do the PA system

1157
01:33:32,159 --> 01:33:38,159
obviously an announcer one person to
help with the tractor pull and as I was

1158
01:33:36,000 --> 01:33:43,679
saying the trophies and then on top of
that they want obviously our liability

1159
01:33:40,239 --> 01:33:47,840
insurance what they're supplying the
pedal pole operator is the tractor and

1160
01:33:45,920 --> 01:33:53,600
sled one person to run the tractor and
sled registration forms state voucher

1161
01:33:50,239 --> 01:33:57,760
and ribbons flat fee payable to them for
$600.

1162
01:33:56,080 --> 01:34:01,840
So
when I was asking her what the trophies

1163
01:33:59,760 --> 01:34:10,719
and the cash prizes cuz she added that
on what and it wasn't in her contract as

1164
01:34:06,320 --> 01:34:16,560
so they figured that out extra $100.
They didn't say trophies or what kind.

1165
01:34:13,840 --> 01:34:20,000
So we can do that. Scott, I just wanted
to get the rest of the information out

1166
01:34:17,920 --> 01:34:25,280
to you guys.
Uh Ben, did you have some?

1167
01:34:23,199 --> 01:34:29,520
I say we just table it till next meeting
look into other vendors.

1168
01:34:27,440 --> 01:34:36,880
» Can I get a second?
>> Can I all uh discussion?

1169
01:34:33,520 --> 01:34:45,600
No. All in favor?
Okay. Uh matters uh kitty tack poll is

1170
01:34:41,360 --> 01:34:50,159
is um tabled. All right. Schedule
changes. Michael's going to bring that

1171
01:34:47,199 --> 01:34:54,080
up. This won't take very long if when he
brings it up, but there was a few of

1172
01:34:51,600 --> 01:34:58,320
them that we just want to look at. Uh,
one of them was the dog show. They

1173
01:34:55,840 --> 01:35:05,760
wanted to go from a Monday to a Monday.
Um, rather than have it on a a Monday

1174
01:35:03,040 --> 01:35:13,960
and a and a Tuesday. They want to go
Monday. Monday. So, um, you can see that

1175
01:35:09,040 --> 01:35:13,960
there. You make that bigger.

1176
01:35:19,920 --> 01:35:31,920
Yeah, there we go. So, the ones that are
in uh in green are the proposed changes

1177
01:35:28,159 --> 01:35:36,320
um with uh we had an extra day, Jeff,
that we we had heard that some people

1178
01:35:33,920 --> 01:35:41,920
wanted on Saturday. That's and just
threw that in there if if far as a

1179
01:35:39,280 --> 01:35:46,159
tractor drop off for like a sat, you
know, we're there anyway, whatever. But

1180
01:35:44,320 --> 01:35:53,760
just to put it on the schedule so people
see it type of deal. Um the planter and

1181
01:35:49,760 --> 01:35:59,440
container drop off on that Monday 11 to
8 being that Marge it wasn't we wouldn't

1182
01:35:56,800 --> 01:36:07,679
see it very utilized. Talking with uh
Amy um and and um and uh

1183
01:36:04,239 --> 01:36:10,960
um Zach that it wasn't utilized as much
as they thought it was going to because

1184
01:36:09,199 --> 01:36:16,000
they felt like a lot of projects weren't
done. So they wanted to know we get it

1185
01:36:14,000 --> 01:36:21,440
back to a Monday, open it up a little
longer. So then we went 11 to 8 with and

1186
01:36:19,280 --> 01:36:28,320
then the suggestion was 9 a.m. on the
dog judging. And if we scroll down

1187
01:36:25,440 --> 01:36:35,040
um what was there? Okay, this is the big
one. So the so we had uh Ben had a lot

1188
01:36:32,400 --> 01:36:41,199
of comments or or not comments but maybe
complaints about the sheep shows

1189
01:36:39,120 --> 01:36:43,520
goat show. So talking with the
superintendent, Ben, you want to take

1190
01:36:42,560 --> 01:36:48,000
that over, please?
>> Yeah. So after talking with the goat

1191
01:36:45,920 --> 01:36:53,679
superintendent, they had a lot of kids
that were showing dairy as well as

1192
01:36:50,719 --> 01:36:58,400
goats. Um, and they had put in a request
that they get their show moved so then

1193
01:36:56,560 --> 01:37:02,480
they can have kids that can do both
their projects. So they had put in a

1194
01:37:00,560 --> 01:37:05,679
request to possibly do after the sheep
show. And then I talked to Derek, too.

1195
01:37:04,080 --> 01:37:11,119
So, we were going to bring that up at at
this meeting on changing the goat show,

1196
01:37:08,880 --> 01:37:17,920
moving up the sheep show and dropping
the goat show below the sheep show, if

1197
01:37:14,719 --> 01:37:23,840
that makes sense.
>> Any discussion?

1198
01:37:19,440 --> 01:37:26,719
» That would be different judges for sure.
>> Some fairs aren't. So,

1199
01:37:25,440 --> 01:37:30,320
» we would get we would get different
judges for the goat and the sheep show.

1200
01:37:28,719 --> 01:37:34,800
Yes.
>> Uh dairy. Yes. Dairy and and the goat

1201
01:37:32,480 --> 01:37:37,440
show would be different. Yep,
Scott.

1202
01:37:35,360 --> 01:37:40,880
» So then there would be no animal shows
that would really overlap. Correct.

1203
01:37:39,679 --> 01:37:43,840
» That's what we're hoping.
>> That's I mean I mean they might just by

1204
01:37:42,639 --> 01:37:49,679
few minutes but in theory
>> and this was suggestion off of

1205
01:37:46,800 --> 01:37:54,000
» Amy Smithy had made the request because
they had some kids that were in both.

1206
01:37:51,679 --> 01:37:57,360
» And just so we're clear, you talked to
Amy.

1207
01:37:54,639 --> 01:38:03,280
» Yes. Amy said she would like like to
change and I Okay.

1208
01:38:01,440 --> 01:38:10,480
Um, Kim,
>> did the um music there was a conflict

1209
01:38:07,520 --> 01:38:13,040
with the dogs and music
submissions and stuff. Did that all get

1210
01:38:12,480 --> 01:38:17,440
ironed out?
>> That will be cleared up now cuz the dog

1211
01:38:15,119 --> 01:38:20,480
show is moving till Monday. Okay. That
was one of the reasons why they were

1212
01:38:18,800 --> 01:38:25,280
willing to move because there are a lot
of kids in the dog project that do like

1213
01:38:22,719 --> 01:38:30,480
watching their projects be judged also.
>> Um, so they were more than willing to

1214
01:38:27,360 --> 01:38:32,719
move it to Monday.
Dave,

1215
01:38:31,040 --> 01:38:37,440
» there any other changes on the other
days or is this it? Th

1216
01:38:34,639 --> 01:38:41,760
» This is I don't think we made No,
>> we had

1217
01:38:39,360 --> 01:38:46,080
» um this is just a big one because why is
cuz I got to put it in the fair book. Uh

1218
01:38:43,840 --> 01:38:51,199
and I'm hoping to start on that pretty
soon. Um so I need to know if you guys

1219
01:38:48,800 --> 01:38:54,719
approve of that. So if somebody can make
them go ahead, Austin.

1220
01:38:52,560 --> 01:38:58,480
» And this
this is just for the judging.

1221
01:38:56,639 --> 01:39:02,560
» Judging. Yes. This is nothing to do with
anything else. is the dog project and

1222
01:39:00,560 --> 01:39:07,440
the goat project and the drop off
project.

1223
01:39:04,080 --> 01:39:11,440
» I move that we change the goat, the
sheep and the dog projects to the

1224
01:39:09,760 --> 01:39:15,639
according times that we have on the
schedule.

1225
01:39:12,159 --> 01:39:15,639
» Is there a second?

1226
01:39:15,920 --> 01:39:26,560
Jeff second it is all in favor.
Okay, those are okay. Um this should

1227
01:39:25,040 --> 01:39:32,159
have been just a talked about but the
parking car organization selection is

1228
01:39:29,280 --> 01:39:40,000
what we were touched base on last time.
um that there was a uh actually Nick had

1229
01:39:36,239 --> 01:39:48,320
proposed um that we asked the booster
club in Monomony

1230
01:39:42,800 --> 01:39:53,679
um which is great uh and have um
uh also with a dollar amount and what we

1231
01:39:51,920 --> 01:39:59,600
were able to give which is a valid
point. So, the reason why I have it on

1232
01:39:56,239 --> 01:40:03,119
here, for one, if fine if we ask who we
ask, but putting a dollar amount on how

1233
01:40:01,600 --> 01:40:08,480
much we're going to give these people
for parking cars and the days are 4 to 8

1234
01:40:05,920 --> 01:40:14,000
on Thursday, Friday, Saturday. That way,
we can get this out to these clubs that

1235
01:40:10,400 --> 01:40:17,840
take a while to to make these decisions.
Go ahead. Uh, Scott,

1236
01:40:15,520 --> 01:40:24,719
» how many You were up there parking cars.
I was not. How many people would it take

1237
01:40:22,880 --> 01:40:28,719
» shooting? Shooting from the hip, you
need at least six. I mean, and and

1238
01:40:27,040 --> 01:40:30,639
that's on the light end. I mean, if you
got

1239
01:40:29,040 --> 01:40:33,520
» I think you need eight to 10.
>> Yeah. Yeah. It would help out having

1240
01:40:32,639 --> 01:40:37,360
more than what we need
>> because once you get going all over,

1241
01:40:35,920 --> 01:40:40,800
» I think you're six when you're in the
fairgrounds, you go to 8 to 10 when you

1242
01:40:39,199 --> 01:40:42,960
start going across
>> the school.

1243
01:40:41,360 --> 01:40:47,440
» And not saying that, you know, one of
the members can't jump in and help if we

1244
01:40:45,440 --> 01:40:53,119
need to be later on. And you know, if we
set say we need six and we say we need x

1245
01:40:51,199 --> 01:40:56,080
amount of people, not saying that if
they get a little short staffed that

1246
01:40:54,639 --> 01:40:59,119
somebody couldn't jump in either and
help.

1247
01:40:57,280 --> 01:41:02,560
» I know Bruner would be more than happy
to come help again.

1248
01:41:01,119 --> 01:41:05,840
» Jeff, did you have something?
>> Nope.

1249
01:41:04,080 --> 01:41:11,360
» I really think the fair board needs to
get away from being so involved with the

1250
01:41:09,040 --> 01:41:15,920
parking. You guys did a great job, but
it was all encompassing when you guys

1251
01:41:13,920 --> 01:41:19,199
were doing it. So it took up everything
you had and you detracted. I mean

1252
01:41:18,000 --> 01:41:25,360
couldn't even see some of the other
things that were going on. So um how

1253
01:41:22,960 --> 01:41:30,239
many organizations do we have right now
and what do we pay the current

1254
01:41:26,800 --> 01:41:35,520
organizations that do the parking?
>> We have one organization right now which

1255
01:41:32,800 --> 01:41:40,719
is the Knights of Columbus uh that deals
with that parking. Um, if that's nothing

1256
01:41:39,040 --> 01:41:44,719
that like parking the car,
>> they just collect and then uh Lions Club

1257
01:41:43,280 --> 01:41:50,000
is the only other one.
>> Yeah, nobody nobody deals with parking.

1258
01:41:47,040 --> 01:41:54,800
» I was just thinking how many 4 clubs
>> I know like the Saturday night deal

1259
01:41:51,679 --> 01:41:59,119
might get a little bit harder, but
>> say, you know, 4 clubs would be tough

1260
01:41:57,520 --> 01:42:02,560
because if you get younger kids, they
they aren't going to be able to park

1261
01:42:00,560 --> 01:42:05,920
cars.
I I I get what you're saying, but I mean

1262
01:42:04,560 --> 01:42:09,520
it's you're going to have kids that are
going to be helping and I don't

1263
01:42:07,280 --> 01:42:13,199
personally think that's a good idea.
>> No, I was just thinking if we could give

1264
01:42:10,960 --> 01:42:17,040
back to the 4 clubs if we could get
adults.

1265
01:42:14,080 --> 01:42:19,520
» Maybe fishing game would be up for this
or not.

1266
01:42:17,679 --> 01:42:24,639
» Yeah, I'm not opposed to one of these.
>> Also, don't think we should give up the

1267
01:42:22,159 --> 01:42:29,920
sell the farm to do it
>> to have somebody do it if we f if we

1268
01:42:27,199 --> 01:42:33,360
look at alternatives like
busing

1269
01:42:31,840 --> 01:42:38,000
to help.
>> Yeah, exactly. So, Stout uh parking and

1270
01:42:36,639 --> 01:42:43,520
transit, we haven't talked about that at
all. The possibilities there. Is there

1271
01:42:40,239 --> 01:42:47,760
cost associated with that or not? Um and
if if we do do it, I say you get your

1272
01:42:45,440 --> 01:42:52,960
price, what the board, what you guys
think, and the dates and then open it up

1273
01:42:50,960 --> 01:42:56,400
and see who's all would be interested in
doing it. And not you don't have to give

1274
01:42:55,119 --> 01:42:59,679
every night, you know, you can do
different people or different groups for

1275
01:42:58,000 --> 01:43:03,600
different nights or something, too.
>> Yeah. I guess that's kind of what I was

1276
01:43:01,280 --> 01:43:07,119
asking is if
>> I believe the the Knights of Columbus at

1277
01:43:05,360 --> 01:43:11,679
the gates, I believe it's roughly like
$15 a manh hour is what that's figured

1278
01:43:10,320 --> 01:43:15,840
at. It's a little bit lighter than that,
but roughly that. So that put it like at

1279
01:43:14,159 --> 01:43:19,679
$2,000.
You you know, if you had 10 people here

1280
01:43:17,760 --> 01:43:21,840
for four hours, that'd be roughly about
two grand.

1281
01:43:20,320 --> 01:43:23,920
» How many people you say?
>> 10.

1282
01:43:22,159 --> 01:43:26,560
» 10 people. That was 10 people. Four
hours. You figured from four to eight,

1283
01:43:25,679 --> 01:43:32,000
right?
>> Is Troy, I know you were up there. Is 4

1284
01:43:29,199 --> 01:43:36,719
early enough? I know.
I I mean, just kind of We We're going on

1285
01:43:35,119 --> 01:43:39,280
night to night. Jeff, you were there,
too. Is 4 Is 4:00 early enough?

1286
01:43:38,960 --> 01:43:40,639
» Yes.
>> Yeah.

1287
01:43:39,679 --> 01:43:43,760
» Just throwing it out.
>> Plenty early. I think we're going to

1288
01:43:42,239 --> 01:43:47,840
have to take them and line them up. you
know, we're gonna have to paint lines

1289
01:43:46,000 --> 01:43:49,440
and stuff so people kind of know what's
going on better than

1290
01:43:48,719 --> 01:43:52,080
» Y,
>> you know,

1291
01:43:49,840 --> 01:43:55,679
» I think we need to be more organized
with the parking up front and it would

1292
01:43:54,239 --> 01:44:00,080
make it a lot easier cuz like getting
people into the center behind the

1293
01:43:57,119 --> 01:44:04,880
carnival and stuff like that. Probably
be four so you can get make sure people

1294
01:44:02,960 --> 01:44:10,960
maybe one or two people just to make
sure people aren't parking stupid, you

1295
01:44:08,080 --> 01:44:16,400
know, right? But after
>> it went well for the way they parked.

1296
01:44:14,560 --> 01:44:19,119
We still had to fill it in. So
>> Dave, did you have something?

1297
01:44:17,520 --> 01:44:22,639
» I just You're You're talking for the
entire fair, Scott. The two

1298
01:44:21,280 --> 01:44:27,760
» 2,000 for the whole fair.
>> I agree.

1299
01:44:24,880 --> 01:44:33,199
» What? Well, what? Yeah.
>> Yeah. Because at that at 10 bucks or 10

1300
01:44:30,080 --> 01:44:37,320
people for 15 times four is 600 bucks a
night for three nights would be 1,800.

1301
01:44:37,360 --> 01:44:44,639
» But Yeah. So that that was kind of the
what what sorry what was the who said it

1302
01:44:42,800 --> 01:44:47,520
what was the price
>> 600

1303
01:44:45,920 --> 01:44:48,800
» I'm just writing it down and I missed
what it was

1304
01:44:48,080 --> 01:44:52,639
» 600 at night
>> night that's what it was okay

1305
01:44:50,639 --> 01:44:57,960
» that's 10 people
>> 10 people

1306
01:44:54,960 --> 01:44:57,960
okay

1307
01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:05,840
Austin did you have something
>> even everybody gets there for either the

1308
01:45:03,040 --> 01:45:13,280
grandstand act or the grandstand event
or the pre-stage act by 7:00. Even 4 to

1309
01:45:10,639 --> 01:45:17,920
7 really helps.
>> Even I mean if you go if you want that

1310
01:45:15,600 --> 01:45:23,159
many hours, push them up to 3 to 7. By
7:00 everyone's pretty much set.

1311
01:45:27,440 --> 01:45:36,639
» Um so
the the big thing on this is the the

1312
01:45:33,280 --> 01:45:41,600
organization and selection. So,
as as far as getting a money, how much

1313
01:45:39,280 --> 01:45:45,199
we're going to do,
if you guys want to vote on that

1314
01:45:42,880 --> 01:45:49,119
tonight, I guess that's part of it. I
think

1315
01:45:45,840 --> 01:45:55,280
» I think we open bid it or or to talk to
different organizations and say we need

1316
01:45:51,600 --> 01:45:59,440
we need 10 people 4 hours a day for
these three days. What

1317
01:45:58,159 --> 01:46:04,480
» what would Yeah. What would you do it
for? Between, you know, a stout

1318
01:46:01,600 --> 01:46:09,040
fraternity with their guys taking it or
the football team that was brought up

1319
01:46:06,639 --> 01:46:13,119
earlier with one of our board members
use one of the football coaches, a great

1320
01:46:11,280 --> 01:46:18,239
fundraiser for them. They're still done
early in the evening or the fishing game

1321
01:46:15,760 --> 01:46:25,199
does it or another organization like
that. But um and then it's fair for

1322
01:46:22,960 --> 01:46:29,040
everybody of what they can come in at if
they have interest. So, who are we just

1323
01:46:28,080 --> 01:46:33,119
going to
>> Would you would you mind if we did

1324
01:46:31,199 --> 01:46:39,920
something like this? We're looking for
parking vendors. We're opening it up for

1325
01:46:36,639 --> 01:46:47,199
anybody uh any association to come here
and park cars. Here is

1326
01:46:43,360 --> 01:46:52,800
what we're looking for. Thursday through
Saturday

1327
01:46:49,280 --> 01:46:56,360
4 to 8, let's say. Um I agree.
>> Contact us.

1328
01:46:57,920 --> 01:47:03,520
Yeah,
is that a fair way to go about it?

1329
01:47:01,119 --> 01:47:07,280
» Is that a fair way to go about it is to
put something out there? Otherwise, are

1330
01:47:05,280 --> 01:47:12,400
we asking too much or should we just go
to certain organizations and ask these

1331
01:47:09,920 --> 01:47:15,360
people that we feel comfortable with to
to do that

1332
01:47:14,159 --> 01:47:20,159
» and and like like
>> I I guess my mind goes to if you ask

1333
01:47:17,840 --> 01:47:23,280
people to put bids in if their bids are
going to come in higher than that just

1334
01:47:21,840 --> 01:47:28,960
thinking that their time is worth more
than that. But when you put it down to

1335
01:47:25,360 --> 01:47:32,320
manh hours, it's it's really not. So
that's my concern if you just open bid

1336
01:47:31,040 --> 01:47:36,080
it that way. But
>> yeah, I'd say we have $1,800 to spend on

1337
01:47:35,679 --> 01:47:41,440
this.
>> Yeah. And go to a certain organization

1338
01:47:38,800 --> 01:47:46,400
and ask them what I think I especially
if Nick had a contact. Yes. I mean, you

1339
01:47:44,320 --> 01:47:50,159
want to you don't want some organization
that maybe no one knows out there. You

1340
01:47:48,800 --> 01:47:53,840
know, I think you're better off working
with, you know, if Larry knows a group

1341
01:47:52,080 --> 01:47:57,600
of people that he wants to contact or
whatever, go reach out to people that we

1342
01:47:55,520 --> 01:48:02,880
know and starters.
>> So, as a board, how as a board, how long

1343
01:48:00,080 --> 01:48:06,320
do we have to come back with
>> people? Where when do you want this?

1344
01:48:04,480 --> 01:48:09,600
» I would like to I'd like to get the
dollar amount and then if it's all right

1345
01:48:07,760 --> 01:48:12,080
for Nick to contact these people and
start there and he he said he would take

1346
01:48:11,760 --> 01:48:18,880
it.
>> Well, we plan on 600 bucks tonight for

1347
01:48:14,719 --> 01:48:21,280
10 people for 4 hours. Is that what we
And then uh

1348
01:48:20,159 --> 01:48:27,360
» you're making a motion.
>> Yep. I I move that we go with 600 bucks

1349
01:48:24,880 --> 01:48:30,960
a night, Thursday, Friday, Saturday,
three nights,

1350
01:48:29,760 --> 01:48:34,719
3 to 7.
>> Okay.

1351
01:48:31,600 --> 01:48:39,119
» With 10 people, and we reach out to
different organizations to see if they

1352
01:48:37,600 --> 01:48:42,320
would be willing to do it.
>> Is there a second?

1353
01:48:40,880 --> 01:48:46,560
» I'll second that.
>> Uh discussion.

1354
01:48:43,520 --> 01:48:52,960
» Are we supplying anything?
orange vests. I say we've probably or

1355
01:48:49,440 --> 01:48:56,320
yellow vests, fluorescent vests. Um, and
I don't know if the county's got some of

1356
01:48:54,400 --> 01:48:59,320
them cones, them waving cones or
something.

1357
01:49:01,040 --> 01:49:06,639
» What about like walkie-talkies? Like is
that going to be

1358
01:49:04,480 --> 01:49:10,560
» They probably They probably need
walkie-talkies from a fair board. Yeah,

1359
01:49:09,440 --> 01:49:13,119
they're going to need those.
>> Okay, that's what I was just wondering.

1360
01:49:11,920 --> 01:49:17,440
You know, are we going to supply?
>> We'll probably have to have more radios

1361
01:49:14,800 --> 01:49:23,840
than last year. returned all of them.
Um, it was a good test drive, a

1362
01:49:20,719 --> 01:49:28,600
durability test that they did not pass,
but I got our money I got our money

1363
01:49:25,600 --> 01:49:28,600
back.

1364
01:49:29,840 --> 01:49:36,960
» Y
understand.

1365
01:49:34,320 --> 01:49:40,880
So,
>> Scott,

1366
01:49:37,840 --> 01:49:45,040
» um, I would actually I would amend it to
actually move it to like 750 a night.

1367
01:49:43,040 --> 01:49:48,239
I'm just thinking of myself and if I
were a part of a booster club or

1368
01:49:46,719 --> 01:49:54,159
something,
I don't know if I would do it if I'd be

1369
01:49:50,800 --> 01:49:59,520
anxious at doing it at that amount for
three nights during the fair and dealing

1370
01:49:56,719 --> 01:50:04,080
with the people. So, I'm a little bit
more to say, okay, let's give you a

1371
01:50:01,920 --> 01:50:08,239
little bit extra so maybe we can find
somebody.

1372
01:50:05,440 --> 01:50:14,480
» I think
there's amend, right? So we

1373
01:50:12,239 --> 01:50:16,560
» we're still in discussion, right?
>> We have an amendment. So is there a

1374
01:50:16,080 --> 01:50:20,639
second?
>> Yes,

1375
01:50:17,679 --> 01:50:24,199
» there's no second amendment.
>> Is there a second?

1376
01:50:24,560 --> 01:50:28,360
» Yeah, the amendment fails.

1377
01:50:29,280 --> 01:50:34,400
» Yeah.
>> Yeah. Just go back to the main motion.

1378
01:50:31,199 --> 01:50:38,480
» Yeah. Main motion. Discussion. Correct.
You can always up the ante if you don't

1379
01:50:36,159 --> 01:50:41,280
get any biters.
I second the motion. That was already

1380
01:50:41,040 --> 01:50:43,040
done.
>> Okay. Oh,

1381
01:50:42,159 --> 01:50:49,920
» still discussion.
>> Yeah, we're

1382
01:50:45,440 --> 01:50:54,800
» I will I will reach out with Nick and I
will have he he's in charge of this. So,

1383
01:50:52,800 --> 01:50:57,280
I'll reach out to him and he'll send it
to the booster club. Any more

1384
01:50:56,159 --> 01:51:04,080
discussion?
>> We're going to look at U signal cones.

1385
01:51:02,159 --> 01:51:09,679
» Yes, we can land airplanes. We'll get
her done.

1386
01:51:06,639 --> 01:51:11,600
» Okay. Oh, any more?
All in favor? I

1387
01:51:11,360 --> 01:51:19,760
» I
>> oppos. Okay.

1388
01:51:14,719 --> 01:51:24,800
Okay. Um, Culver's gift cards. Uh, and
this I don't know

1389
01:51:22,560 --> 01:51:28,960
whose this is, but I'll put it to good
use. They said it was for somebody on

1390
01:51:27,280 --> 01:51:31,119
the fairboard.
Peter is his name.

1391
01:51:30,239 --> 01:51:33,040
» Yeah. From Jake.
>> From Jake.

1392
01:51:32,000 --> 01:51:39,360
» Yeah.
>> Was for somebody on the fairboard.

1393
01:51:36,719 --> 01:51:44,400
And he didn't give me a description. He
just said the guy on the fairboard. So,

1394
01:51:41,520 --> 01:51:49,360
anybody know who this belongs to? It's
not to me.

1395
01:51:46,400 --> 01:51:53,119
» You did a lot of work this last year.
>> That's not what I'm asking. I'm asking

1396
01:51:51,119 --> 01:51:57,199
if anybody else.
>> Oh, okay.

1397
01:51:54,880 --> 01:52:01,040
» We were visiting.
>> Okay. Well, maybe we'll meet you out

1398
01:52:00,000 --> 01:52:03,360
there. Okay.
>> Whatever.

1399
01:52:02,239 --> 01:52:06,239
» Mr. Chairman.
>> Yeah.

1400
01:52:03,760 --> 01:52:11,520
» One question. I know we we talked about
schedule changes prior and I forgot to

1401
01:52:10,000 --> 01:52:18,800
bring it up at that point, but was there
any discussion to u moving the demo

1402
01:52:14,480 --> 01:52:23,760
derby ahead a little bit in a time slot
to so that it finished just a little bit

1403
01:52:21,199 --> 01:52:27,199
earlier so that that crowd then could be
involved with the entertainment and the

1404
01:52:25,520 --> 01:52:31,920
food vendors and some of that.
>> I should have brought it up before.

1405
01:52:29,199 --> 01:52:35,119
» That's fine. So, we I I am uh been
texting Johnny. He's going to come to

1406
01:52:33,520 --> 01:52:40,639
our next meeting along with the Knights
of Columbus and and uh and the Lions

1407
01:52:38,320 --> 01:52:45,440
Club. Trying to get them all to come.
Johnny's coming. Uh Knights of Columbus

1408
01:52:43,040 --> 01:52:50,159
are coming and that's when uh we're
talking about changing I want changing

1409
01:52:48,320 --> 01:52:56,880
that time with what we had with
discussion with that. Yep. You're

1410
01:52:52,719 --> 01:53:02,520
welcome. Um so Culver's gift cards I
don't I don't know. Um, so

1411
01:53:02,719 --> 01:53:13,119
we have 57 lunches and 49 scoopies in
here that are left. Um,

1412
01:53:11,440 --> 01:53:22,080
okay.
I'm going to Cassie. I had text her, ask

1413
01:53:17,840 --> 01:53:28,480
her her wishes on what they said and she
said that she would love to

1414
01:53:25,760 --> 01:53:33,040
she would love to give it out to
whatever you think, but I also would

1415
01:53:31,040 --> 01:53:36,880
love to see the fair board take
something for what they did. They did

1416
01:53:34,560 --> 01:53:41,440
such an amazing job and didn't get paid
for any of it from my understanding. I

1417
01:53:39,040 --> 01:53:46,320
would be okay if that was split up
between you guys and thanks again for

1418
01:53:44,000 --> 01:53:53,280
everything you've done.
Okay. So, otherwise the other option is

1419
01:53:50,400 --> 01:53:59,440
too that I was looking and maybe I'm
wrong, but I do not see a date on there.

1420
01:53:56,560 --> 01:54:04,000
» You got to go ahead.
>> It's a date issued but not a date of

1421
01:54:02,239 --> 01:54:07,440
» You're saying maybe possibly lay them
over till next year. I

1422
01:54:05,920 --> 01:54:10,239
» I I'm just throwing it out there. I
didn't see a date. I'm reading what

1423
01:54:08,639 --> 01:54:13,239
she's texting. I asked her what she'd
feel.

1424
01:54:14,239 --> 01:54:20,080
» So,
What would you guys like to do?

1425
01:54:17,119 --> 01:54:26,320
» Just uh uh
dumb question, but for fair board

1426
01:54:23,199 --> 01:54:32,480
members to take a gift like that, is
that I I don't think is it

1427
01:54:29,199 --> 01:54:34,320
» I I didn't I didn't I didn't take any
>> What do you

1428
01:54:34,159 --> 01:54:38,480
say?
>> No,

1429
01:54:35,920 --> 01:54:45,239
I'm Can you take gifts and donations?
Larry said county board members can't.

1430
01:54:40,480 --> 01:54:45,239
So, that's all I was getting at.

1431
01:54:45,440 --> 01:54:50,560
I just don't want somebody to get
involved. I'm fine with laying it over

1432
01:54:48,800 --> 01:54:53,360
till next year. I'm asking what to do.
>> Well, I'm just asking for clarification

1433
01:54:52,880 --> 01:54:55,520
because I
>> Okay, so that's the clarification right

1434
01:54:54,960 --> 01:54:57,199
way to do it.
>> Yeah, she okay with going to be okay

1435
01:54:56,880 --> 01:55:00,960
with
>> Yeah, she said her whatever. She just

1436
01:54:59,520 --> 01:55:03,960
That was a nice thing she said. That's
all

1437
01:55:05,360 --> 01:55:13,679
» it it.
Thank you. It might it it might be just

1438
01:55:10,639 --> 01:55:21,040
a a nice little thing for our per park
parking crew because I mean they really

1439
01:55:15,599 --> 01:55:25,599
ended up uh uh making getting places.
They kept putting cars were places I

1440
01:55:23,119 --> 01:55:28,560
didn't think they had to put cars.
>> Well,

1441
01:55:26,000 --> 01:55:34,400
» and the people just were streaming in,
you know, so pretty good deal.

1442

» How many judges did we have total
>> this year?

1443
01:55:35,280 --> 01:55:42,320
» Uh I don't know the commercial. I don't
know the answer to that.

1444
01:55:39,199 --> 01:55:46,560
» If it'd be a nice

» Michael.
>> Okay.

» Some where like on Facebook like if we
have what was there 40 or 50 of them

weekly trivia to keep people engaged

with the with our Facebook and what
we're doing where we could do a weekly

1453

» I I guess I
>> I guess I guess the only other thing

1454
01:56:28,560 --> 01:56:38,080
that I'd like to do is that there was
five kids in particular that didn't get

1455
01:56:34,719 --> 01:56:43,760
anything that were parking cars with
you. Never asked for anything but didn't

1456
01:56:41,440 --> 01:56:48,880
get anything.
I I just thought maybe I don't I don't

1457
01:56:46,159 --> 01:56:54,639
have a number. My number if I did, maybe
it would be four. I don't know. Um but

1458
01:56:51,840 --> 01:56:58,800
those kids um didn't ask for anything
that helped us out. They didn't

1459
01:56:55,840 --> 01:57:02,400
complain. I'm just asking and we can lay
this over. It's just a suggestion.

1460
01:57:00,800 --> 01:57:04,639
» Two of them are in the Netherlands. You
could send them cards and you wouldn't

1461
01:57:04,159 --> 01:57:08,480
have
>> they got a clovers in the Netherlands.

1462
01:57:06,400 --> 01:57:13,520
So they don't they would never get used.
>> Okay. So we're down to three. Or the or

1463
01:57:10,560 --> 01:57:19,040
the the kids that helped at 11:30 at
night with Chris Cruz sound. The kids

1464
01:57:17,280 --> 01:57:22,719
that helped. No.
>> Oh, they're fun.

1465
01:57:21,280 --> 01:57:26,159
» Well, the other two were just at my
house last night and that did what the

1466
01:57:25,360 --> 01:57:30,800
notes.
>> There was a daytime group and a

1467
01:57:27,360 --> 01:57:33,040
nighttime group and um really
appreciated that guy.

1468
01:57:32,400 --> 01:57:34,880
» Yeah.
>> How about we just hold on to him till

1469
01:57:34,400 --> 01:57:39,040
next year?
>> Okay.

1470
01:57:36,000 --> 01:57:41,599
» Is there a motion? I make a motion that
we just hold on to these till next year

1471
01:57:40,560 --> 01:57:47,920
and we can use them next year.
>> Is there a second?

1472
01:57:44,480 --> 01:57:49,520
Larry second. Oh, discussion.
In favor, I

1473
01:57:49,040 --> 01:57:56,320
» I
>> post. Okay. All right. I'm going to turn

1474
01:57:52,159 --> 01:58:02,400
this last one over to Troy and and Ben.
And you want to put that up there. Okay.

1475
01:57:59,119 --> 01:58:06,719
So, um before I do, there was a a little
issue at the fair with um I'd like to

1476
01:58:04,560 --> 01:58:08,400
not putting names, please, when you do
that. So go ahead.

1477
01:58:07,679 --> 01:58:14,800
» Thank you.
>> So it was brought to our attention

1478
01:58:11,520 --> 01:58:23,679
midway through a certain show that there
was a issue that was brought up that

1479
01:58:17,679 --> 01:58:30,080
involved a member and a adult parent of
another member. And

1480
01:58:27,840 --> 01:58:35,360
basically how it went, no fair board was
a witness, but we had several witnesses

1481
01:58:32,480 --> 01:58:41,440
around when this happened. And there was
a uh needless to say there was a scene

1482
01:58:37,760 --> 01:58:50,000
that was caused that was had foul
language by the parent of this exhibitor

1483
01:58:45,520 --> 01:58:52,960
and had several people witness this and
there was a lot of

1484
01:58:51,679 --> 01:58:58,000
» and she was throwing things
>> throwing things throwing Yep. this

1485
01:58:55,440 --> 01:59:02,800
person, this adult was throwing things
and cussing and swearing about a

1486
01:58:59,760 --> 01:59:07,119
particular rule that was
>> she had tried she had tried saying that

1487
01:59:05,040 --> 01:59:10,639
this rule was in the fair book and me
and Troy did have a meeting with her

1488
01:59:08,960 --> 01:59:14,480
afterwards
um and went through the rule book and

1489
01:59:12,560 --> 01:59:21,440
she had highlighted a bunch of
>> Yep. uh which she had highlighted a

1490
01:59:17,040 --> 01:59:26,639
bunch of rules that may have not been
not been policed to a tea on these rules

1491
01:59:23,920 --> 01:59:32,719
during the fair. So very very minor
minor minor rules that didn't involve

1492
01:59:30,239 --> 01:59:35,599
any anything that was anything that was
bad just she went through the whole rule

1493
01:59:34,639 --> 01:59:40,159
book
>> kind of went with the fans hanging onto

1494
01:59:37,360 --> 01:59:43,599
the side of the beef cuff like that off
the ground. It was

1495
01:59:41,520 --> 01:59:48,080
» Yep. are shoots that need to be taken
down a half hour after the show, not an

1496
01:59:45,679 --> 01:59:54,480
hour, like just really small small
things. Um, and so after this whole

1497
01:59:51,840 --> 01:59:56,880
scene, after the show, um,
>> and we do have letters,

1498
01:59:55,599 --> 02:00:00,159
» we do have letters
>> of complaints

1499
01:59:57,599 --> 02:00:05,360
» of complaint from different members that
saw this go down. So after we had the

1500
02:00:03,760 --> 02:00:09,280
meeting, we wanted to bring it up to the
board on how we want to proceed with

1501
02:00:07,199 --> 02:00:14,560
this because this this is something in
my and Troy's opinion cannot happen at a

1502
02:00:11,440 --> 02:00:18,639
fair with a a parent um causing foul
language and having a scene at the fair,

1503
02:00:16,719 --> 02:00:24,800
especially after even having four
letters of different members that saw

1504
02:00:21,440 --> 02:00:29,119
this happen and very very heated parents
that saw this that had kids that

1505
02:00:26,719 --> 02:00:32,880
witnessed this. um as far especially
cussing and swearing and throwing things

1506
02:00:31,199 --> 02:00:36,239
that their kid they didn't want their
kids to witness.

1507
02:00:33,760 --> 02:00:40,639
» And this is not the first time Derek and
I in the past have went and had

1508
02:00:38,719 --> 02:00:47,520
conversations with this person. So this
is not like the first offense on on it.

1509
02:00:45,199 --> 02:00:54,239
And that's why Ben and I when we went to
meet with them took it pretty serious

1510
02:00:49,840 --> 02:00:59,040
and we we were lied to a lot about
like the biggest thing was like the

1511
02:00:56,159 --> 02:01:02,880
registration papers and she was saying
that people in the past have taken

1512
02:01:00,880 --> 02:01:07,520
registration papers and who it was just
all a bunch it was not the truth cuz I

1513
02:01:05,679 --> 02:01:12,080
followed up with the people that she
this person mentioned afterwards. We

1514
02:01:09,599 --> 02:01:18,880
were lied to in the meeting directly to
her face on um what she had claimed had

1515
02:01:16,960 --> 02:01:23,280
happened and said and then we went back
and we talked to those particular people

1516
02:01:21,119 --> 02:01:29,679
superintendants and they said that is
not how it happened. So we were lied to.

1517
02:01:26,320 --> 02:01:33,040
Um and so it's it's going to the point
where

1518
02:01:31,199 --> 02:01:41,599
we need to discuss what we want to do
going forward with this particular

1519
02:01:34,800 --> 02:01:46,239
person. I'd like to say that uh um
lied to I I'm I'm not sticking up for

1520
02:01:44,960 --> 02:01:53,119
one way or the other, but there's always
two sides to every story. Um so how were

1521
02:01:50,639 --> 02:01:58,800
you as far as lie to you was saying as
in

1522
02:01:53,920 --> 02:02:01,599
» said uh so she said that she was told
one thing.

1523
02:01:59,760 --> 02:02:09,119
» Okay. And then we went to that person
and asked, you know, what they had said

1524
02:02:05,679 --> 02:02:13,760
particularly and he that superintendent
said absolutely not. That's not how it

1525
02:02:11,280 --> 02:02:18,639
happened. And it even came down to like
the show, the show schedule was up on

1526
02:02:16,800 --> 02:02:23,520
Thursday night and the show wasn't until
Friday and she went and said that she

1527
02:02:21,440 --> 02:02:27,679
talked to the superintendent before the
show and by the end of the night cuz I

1528
02:02:26,000 --> 02:02:33,040
know I knew that that was not the case
and by the end of the night she turned

1529
02:02:30,800 --> 02:02:37,679
her wheels and said it was, you know,
after the show or whatever. And I'm

1530
02:02:34,639 --> 02:02:43,840
like, hey, you had all Thursday
afternoon and Friday morning, you knew

1531
02:02:39,679 --> 02:02:47,280
what class your do or your kid was in
and you if you would have talked about

1532
02:02:45,520 --> 02:02:50,800
it ahead of time, it would have meant we
could have prevented it, right? You

1533
02:02:48,560 --> 02:02:55,679
know, but we also had the discussion
with the regge papers that you can

1534
02:02:52,719 --> 02:03:00,639
register a main that's 5%, a seml, you
know, that's 5%. So it's like we're like

1535
02:02:58,000 --> 02:03:04,400
registration papers
really don't at the end of the day

1536
02:03:02,719 --> 02:03:10,159
really don't matter because if you want
to show a purebred man it can be a

1537
02:03:06,960 --> 02:03:14,560
crossbread and only be 5% made right. So
it's it was about a 2 and 1/2 hour

1538
02:03:13,119 --> 02:03:21,679
» yep meeting
>> meeting with her. Um

1539
02:03:17,679 --> 02:03:27,520
» so um just off what you're saying um
going forward not trying to speed it up

1540
02:03:23,920 --> 02:03:31,760
but with the direct criticism so on down
bottom left D county fair code of

1541
02:03:29,840 --> 02:03:36,800
conduct I've showed you both this this
falls underneath number seven

1542
02:03:34,000 --> 02:03:41,840
» well I think it falls underneath just
when I read it it falls underneath just

1543
02:03:38,880 --> 02:03:45,760
about every I mean direct criticism or
fears with the judge fear livestock and

1544
02:03:44,159 --> 02:03:48,880
abuse of throwing
Yeah.

1545
02:03:46,080 --> 02:03:53,920
» Um, that's what I'm getting at.
>> Um, and it leads us up to our discretion

1546
02:03:51,920 --> 02:03:59,599
and what we want to do is how it
pertains and you go ahead. Yeah. So, I

1547
02:03:56,400 --> 02:04:04,159
talked to Deb at Dad Cap on, you know,
how to move forward with it just to make

1548
02:04:01,520 --> 02:04:10,960
sure that we would not get in trouble or
do anything wrong. And she said as long

1549
02:04:06,719 --> 02:04:15,280
as the rule was is not a new rule,
right? It was a rule that we've already

1550
02:04:12,560 --> 02:04:20,239
had. She goes, she will support us in
any way that needs to, just as long as

1551
02:04:16,800 --> 02:04:26,400
we don't make up a new rule.
>> Yeah. And it's Yeah. And Deb at Dad Cap

1552
02:04:23,599 --> 02:04:31,840
has been not just by me, but there was
some people at our fair that actually

1553
02:04:29,199 --> 02:04:37,360
contacted Deb at DadCap about this also.
>> And going back to the line thing, um, I

1554
02:04:34,320 --> 02:04:42,880
I get to the he said, she said deal. Um,
but she had directly said that she was

1555
02:04:39,679 --> 02:04:47,520
unaware. Nobody had contacted her on who
to contact directly as far as if there

1556
02:04:45,360 --> 02:04:52,080
was a problem. But me and Troy both had
a meeting before the fair. And I

1557
02:04:50,000 --> 02:04:56,080
deliberately looked at everybody. And I
know this particular person was standing

1558
02:04:54,000 --> 02:05:00,880
right there when I we said if you have
any problems, superintendent's here,

1559
02:04:58,639 --> 02:05:06,080
otherwise come find me or Troy. So I
know that that was addressed. So as far

1560
02:05:03,199 --> 02:05:09,040
as the line goes and one thing there is
several witnesses so it's not just a he

1561
02:05:08,000 --> 02:05:14,080
said she said thing
>> and it was one of the things with

1562
02:05:11,679 --> 02:05:17,920
» she was trying to pro you know the
person that runs our open show she was

1563
02:05:16,239 --> 02:05:22,560
saying was taking regge papers and
that's like yes that is for an open show

1564
02:05:20,000 --> 02:05:28,080
it's a completely different show and
stuff and she's like no that she always

1565
02:05:25,280 --> 02:05:32,159
did it for the fair also and I actually
contacted the person that she said did

1566
02:05:29,840 --> 02:05:36,400
it she was I've never taken registration
papers for the 4H fair ever. It was only

1567
02:05:34,960 --> 02:05:41,920
for the open show is the only thing
she's ever like bringing animals in and

1568
02:05:39,119 --> 02:05:46,080
all that. The 4 stuff she's had nothing
to do with it. It was always two other

1569
02:05:44,159 --> 02:05:50,480
individuals that have been the
superintendent we have now and the prior

1570
02:05:47,679 --> 02:05:55,679
one that has done it all. So, so I guess
it's up to the board on how we want to

1571
02:05:52,880 --> 02:06:01,840
go forward whether it's a strip
reprimmend of this particular parent or

1572
02:05:59,840 --> 02:06:06,639
you know do we go to the extent of
saying you can't come to the fair and

1573
02:06:04,239 --> 02:06:11,119
the kids can or how do we want to go
about doing this as far as you know cuz

1574
02:06:09,280 --> 02:06:13,840
there was several people that were very
upset that on the scene that she had

1575
02:06:13,360 --> 02:06:17,360
made and
>> this is the third time this is this is

1576
02:06:16,560 --> 02:06:21,280
number three
>> but this is the first time has been

1577
02:06:19,119 --> 02:06:25,280
brought to the fair board.
>> Correct.

1578
02:06:22,320 --> 02:06:27,679
» Yes. That has came to this to this level
cuz you and I that was mapped back when

1579
02:06:27,360 --> 02:06:30,800
we did
>> that was mapped. That's different.

1580
02:06:29,040 --> 02:06:37,599
» So this is the first time that it's came
this far as far as this an instant an

1581
02:06:35,199 --> 02:06:40,599
instant with this this particular
person.

1582
02:06:41,760 --> 02:06:49,920
» Next thing it says junior fair
exhibitors dress cold for animal shows.

1583
02:06:46,960 --> 02:06:56,400
uh in there more than likely tells what
the dress show code is and uh you will

1584
02:06:54,639 --> 02:07:01,719
uh follow it or you won't be able to
show.

1585
02:06:58,079 --> 02:07:01,719
And uh

1586
02:07:02,880 --> 02:07:10,960
one of my dumbest things I've ever did
in my life was send my kids into World

1587
02:07:07,679 --> 02:07:16,000
Dairy Expo not wearing white pants and
they made it halfway around the ring and

1588
02:07:14,000 --> 02:07:20,079
they're out.
So, if you're going to have rules and

1589
02:07:18,159 --> 02:07:24,560
regulations,
uh, you know, you you've got I don't

1590
02:07:22,480 --> 02:07:28,320
think you've got anything printed on if
you violate this, this is what to

1591
02:07:26,480 --> 02:07:36,079
expect.
But most often these situations uh don't

1592
02:07:32,800 --> 02:07:39,280
fix themselves by saying, "Are you sure
you're sorry?"

1593
02:07:38,560 --> 02:07:44,400
Well,
>> things like this get fixed when you say,

1594
02:07:42,000 --> 02:07:47,760
"You've crossed the line. you're going
to have to stay home next year.

1595
02:07:45,599 --> 02:07:52,400
» Yeah. And there was there was no
remorse, no,

1596
02:07:49,920 --> 02:07:55,520
» I'm sorry I screwed up. It was like she
was she was trying to she hammered on

1597
02:07:54,880 --> 02:07:59,880
better.
>> Yeah. She wanted to make a point.

1598
02:08:00,159 --> 02:08:07,360
The
the thing that uh I think where the fair

1599
02:08:04,639 --> 02:08:13,520
board really needs to do something is if
you got letters coming from fair board

1600
02:08:09,199 --> 02:08:17,599
member or kid project members to dad cap
about this situation and we don't do

1601
02:08:16,000 --> 02:08:21,679
anything
very strong action then it uh what are

1602
02:08:19,760 --> 02:08:24,880
we here for type of deal. Correct. If we
don't if we're not willing to support

1603
02:08:22,800 --> 02:08:31,840
our kids when they're going to the point
of writing letters to DACA about um an

1604
02:08:28,400 --> 02:08:38,400
individual then
>> so with that being said are we wanting

1605
02:08:35,199 --> 02:08:40,400
to do the whole family or the
>> I got a question before you get there.

1606
02:08:40,000 --> 02:08:46,480
» Yep.
>> The things that she was upset about were

1607
02:08:43,280 --> 02:08:50,320
things that we didn't enforce. Is that
what she was getting at? But we gave

1608
02:08:48,000 --> 02:08:56,320
approval like for the fans being behind
them instead of the side. So we did give

1609
02:08:52,880 --> 02:09:02,400
approval that they could move them ahead
of time. So she she just saw it and

1610
02:08:59,440 --> 02:09:07,760
didn't ask any questions. Right. So
pretty much everything that she had,

1611
02:09:05,119 --> 02:09:11,679
» the little piddly stuff that she had was
pretty much all approved. Like the

1612
02:09:09,280 --> 02:09:13,599
shoots, they were they weren't tore
down, but they were put off to the side.

1613
02:09:13,360 --> 02:09:20,159
Right.
>> Okay. The only thing that maybe um I

1614
02:09:18,000 --> 02:09:25,679
could see some backlash there is in the
fair book that they have to have regge

1615
02:09:23,040 --> 02:09:30,079
papers, but it's gray area because say
you got a steer. Okay, steer is going to

1616
02:09:28,239 --> 02:09:34,480
get butchered no matter what or cross
spread. So putting regge papers in

1617
02:09:32,560 --> 02:09:37,760
there, it's it's hard. It's a gray area
because steers half of them don't have

1618
02:09:36,880 --> 02:09:40,960
reg papers,
>> right? But that's where we also talked

1619
02:09:39,280 --> 02:09:46,480
to her at the same time that a main only
needs to be 5% to be registered. So you

1620
02:09:43,840 --> 02:09:49,199
could ask what you know what did she
blow? I guess I'm confused. What did she

1621
02:09:48,800 --> 02:09:53,679
blow?
>> I will. Okay, I'll I'll paint a picture.

1622
02:09:51,440 --> 02:10:00,159
So there was a certain animal in a
peerbred class that was entered into a

1623
02:09:57,119 --> 02:10:04,239
class by a member who was entering for
the first time ever without parents

1624
02:10:02,719 --> 02:10:09,920
helping
into the fair. Okay, so she's entering

1625
02:10:06,480 --> 02:10:14,560
on her own. She accidentally put it in
the wrong class, but it still looked

1626
02:10:11,920 --> 02:10:20,000
like an animal that could have been a
purebred. Okay. So, it it passed all the

1627
02:10:17,440 --> 02:10:24,400
the inspections as far as this animal
could be a purebred, could be uh exactly

1628
02:10:22,480 --> 02:10:30,960
what she entered it in.
>> She was mad that we didn't require regge

1629
02:10:27,199 --> 02:10:36,079
paper and move it to the correct class
and it accidentally went through the

1630
02:10:32,719 --> 02:10:38,880
show and this particular animal won. Her
animal was second.

1631
02:10:37,520 --> 02:10:40,239
» No, her animal was third.
>> Sorry. Third.

1632
02:10:39,760 --> 02:10:44,000
» Okay.
>> Um, so it would have it would have

1633
02:10:42,400 --> 02:10:49,040
changed the placing a little bit, but
that animal had to go against the whole

1634
02:10:46,480 --> 02:10:53,760
show at the end of the day anyways. So
it wouldn't have changed the placing at

1635
02:10:50,719 --> 02:10:59,760
all. So she so the lady that was
throwing the fit, she was mad that

1636
02:10:56,639 --> 02:11:04,800
somebody else showed in the class that
>> in the crossbread class that or in a

1637
02:11:02,239 --> 02:11:08,639
purebred class that her kid was in. So
technically they didn't follow the

1638
02:11:06,320 --> 02:11:11,760
rules. That's what she's I'm not the
technically that's what she's saying the

1639
02:11:10,239 --> 02:11:16,320
fool and that's where she when she's
going off on tand she's saying you don't

1640
02:11:13,440 --> 02:11:19,920
follow these rules and okay trying to
get

1641
02:11:16,560 --> 02:11:24,960
» but at the same time this person knew
the steer was coming to the Dun County

1642
02:11:21,679 --> 02:11:30,560
Fair the whole time right cuz they they
were going to purchase this steer

1643
02:11:26,800 --> 02:11:36,239
decided not to. this other exhibitor
purchased it and brought it to so it's

1644
02:11:33,199 --> 02:11:39,360
she waited until after the fact and I
told her hey if you would have came to

1645
02:11:37,599 --> 02:11:42,159
us ahead of time none of us know it
looked like it could have been a pure

1646
02:11:40,480 --> 02:11:45,599
bred you know we don't run around check
all these animals but we're like hey if

1647
02:11:43,520 --> 02:11:49,440
you would have came to us ahead of time
and been proactive about it and you

1648
02:11:48,079 --> 02:11:53,920
would have said hey I know this
information about this steer then we

1649
02:11:51,920 --> 02:11:58,000
could have done something right you know
and at the end of the day like Ben said

1650
02:11:56,000 --> 02:12:00,320
it would not have shown ended changed
the outcome of the final beef show.

1651
02:11:59,679 --> 02:12:04,000
Anyway,
>> what

1652
02:12:02,079 --> 02:12:09,119
» did they They did not check registration
on any animal, did they? In the

1653
02:12:06,000 --> 02:12:16,159
» none of the animals have ever gotten
>> checked. Never be feces, nothing have

1654
02:12:12,719 --> 02:12:22,079
ever been checked.
>> So, and that's my thing is that she knew

1655
02:12:19,280 --> 02:12:27,199
about this steer when that steer was 400
lb, right? and knew where that it was

1656
02:12:24,159 --> 02:12:33,679
coming there. And it was more or less
after they got beat is then she is when

1657
02:12:31,360 --> 02:12:38,079
she got mad. So she had all the
opportunity in the world to be proactive

1658
02:12:35,599 --> 02:12:43,360
about it if she knew something. Right.
>> So um how many kids do they have? I

1659
02:12:42,239 --> 02:12:44,719
don't know what family I have no idea
who you're talking about.

1660
02:12:43,840 --> 02:12:47,760
» I don't want to say anything.
>> Yeah. And I don't want to know but I

1661
02:12:46,000 --> 02:12:49,920
want they have two kids that are
actively showing

1662
02:12:49,280 --> 02:12:51,840
» will be
>> well would will be

1663
02:12:51,280 --> 02:12:53,760
» will be one
>> will be

1664
02:12:52,639 --> 02:12:55,040
» they'll be down to one.
>> Yes.

1665
02:12:54,400 --> 02:12:59,199
» Okay.
>> What are what are the repercussions

1666
02:12:56,639 --> 02:13:03,760
versus barring this individual from the
show versus the whole family I guess is

1667
02:13:02,800 --> 02:13:08,880
is uh
>> that's pros and cons of each. I would

1668
02:13:06,159 --> 02:13:14,639
think that the exhibitor themselves
handles themselves in a pretty good

1669
02:13:10,480 --> 02:13:18,719
manner. And to be honest, I think she
would maybe enjoy it, be happy.

1670
02:13:17,440 --> 02:13:21,840
» My biggest thing about
>> wasn't there.

1671
02:13:19,360 --> 02:13:26,239
» I have a hard time punishing a kid for a
parent's actions.

1672
02:13:23,760 --> 02:13:30,960
» Um,
no. No.

1673
02:13:27,040 --> 02:13:36,320
» Right. the person who commits those acts
I think should be reprimanded

1674
02:13:32,960 --> 02:13:40,560
accordingly but it shouldn't affect a 4
member who

1675
02:13:37,679 --> 02:13:45,599
» I I got one more question before I weigh
in when when did she come to you with

1676
02:13:43,920 --> 02:13:50,480
the concerns
>> she came after the fair probably two

1677
02:13:48,239 --> 02:13:55,360
weeks after after she had already gone
to the county

1678
02:13:52,480 --> 02:13:59,920
» as she went to Randy said she went
>> instead she bypassed all the fair and

1679
02:13:58,320 --> 02:14:08,560
she went right to the county.
>> Right. And the other thing too is that

1680
02:14:04,159 --> 02:14:12,560
the daughter or the exhibitor
showed somebody else's animal at the

1681
02:14:10,800 --> 02:14:15,920
fair and came back and told them that
was the most fun that I've ever had

1682
02:14:14,000 --> 02:14:21,040
showing and it wasn't her animal like
the the stress was gone. And so

1683
02:14:19,360 --> 02:14:25,280
» I guess the the point that I would make
irregardless of everything that

1684
02:14:23,199 --> 02:14:30,480
happened, it was her conduct at the
fair, her language, throwing things and

1685
02:14:28,239 --> 02:14:37,280
things like that that I is what I really
have a problem with it. you know, no

1686
02:14:33,360 --> 02:14:43,040
matter what registration, all that stuff
doesn't at the end of the day isn't

1687
02:14:39,920 --> 02:14:46,960
what's getting her into as much, you
know, the trouble as much as her the way

1688
02:14:45,040 --> 02:14:51,360
she handled herself and the language and
the that kind of stuff. That's what we

1689
02:14:49,199 --> 02:14:55,760
can't have at the fair, that kind of
stuff.

1690
02:14:52,159 --> 02:15:00,480
» So, if we were to bar her from the fair,
how do we even

1691
02:14:58,239 --> 02:15:03,599
how would we even go? And I'm not saying
that's what we should do. I'm just

1692
02:15:01,599 --> 02:15:07,040
asking a question as a group. How if we
ever barred someone from the fair, how

1693
02:15:05,360 --> 02:15:11,119
would we even enforce that?
>> Well, we could talk like I could talk

1694
02:15:08,800 --> 02:15:15,840
with Deb at Dag Cap and she said that we
can and she would support us in any way,

1695
02:15:13,520 --> 02:15:21,119
but I don't know how like
but you you could all you could say is

1696
02:15:18,159 --> 02:15:25,599
that a little bit is that it happens say
in the beef barn, right? Is that she's

1697
02:15:23,520 --> 02:15:28,560
not allowed,
you know, in the in the beef barn,

1698
02:15:27,360 --> 02:15:32,719
right? I don't.
>> So, here was another

1699
02:15:30,880 --> 02:15:38,239
» recommendation that came from the
superintendent. Um, and this

1700
02:15:34,800 --> 02:15:43,760
superintendent, he had said, "Yeah, same
thing as me and Troy talked about, it's

1701
02:15:40,000 --> 02:15:51,119
a hard hard time banning a member for a
parent's actions, which I totally agree.

1702
02:15:47,520 --> 02:15:57,440
But what if you allow that family back,
but yet you put a strict gig order, so

1703
02:15:55,040 --> 02:16:03,360
to speak, that you are not allowed to
have a single scene or we are the fair

1704
02:16:00,719 --> 02:16:07,280
board is allowed to withhold your check
from the auction. And I know that's we

1705
02:16:05,520 --> 02:16:11,280
can't do that. We can't do that because
with map on the map side and fair board,

1706
02:16:09,760 --> 02:16:15,199
we're not together anymore. We're two
completely different identities. So that

1707
02:16:13,119 --> 02:16:21,199
ain't going to work.
I would just say my opinion is that I

1708
02:16:18,159 --> 02:16:26,800
think you can let her come to the fair.
You just ban her from

1709
02:16:23,760 --> 02:16:30,639
the area that causes cuz there they do
other projects and there's never issues,

1710
02:16:28,560 --> 02:16:33,519
right? The only issue ever is is in the
beef barn. So I think if you banned her

1711
02:16:32,719 --> 02:16:37,359
from
>> But how would you force that? I mean

1712
02:16:35,679 --> 02:16:40,080
» I am pretty sure that we could get phone
calls real quick if somebody stepped in

1713
02:16:39,040 --> 02:16:42,880
the beef barn,
>> right? But but how do we enforce that?

1714
02:16:41,840 --> 02:16:47,359
We calling the cops.
>> Sure. That that's that's what I'm asking

1715
02:16:45,439 --> 02:16:51,599
is what
>> right that's what I'm asking is are we

1716
02:16:49,280 --> 02:16:56,639
willing to do that
>> I guess uh I would lean on deap a little

1717
02:16:54,479 --> 02:17:00,880
bit as far as I'm sure they've had
situations like this in the past

1718
02:16:58,880 --> 02:17:04,719
» you know what exactly do they do and how
do they do it

1719
02:17:02,080 --> 02:17:07,760
» and I can call I can call de
>> we could maybe table this for a month

1720
02:17:06,160 --> 02:17:10,399
and come back with more information on
that too

1721
02:17:08,639 --> 02:17:16,080
» as long as everybody's aware of what's
going on that there is a situation at at

1722
02:17:13,200 --> 02:17:19,760
hand. And it does. I I mean, and like
Ben and I when we we went into this

1723
02:17:18,080 --> 02:17:26,880
meeting, it's like,
>> man, I really hope she's sorry and

1724
02:17:24,800 --> 02:17:32,160
everything and remorseful for what
happened and everything. And we sat down

1725
02:17:29,519 --> 02:17:36,160
on those tables and I'm just like I
looked at Ben, I just bite your tongue

1726
02:17:33,840 --> 02:17:40,880
and let her let her out. There's there's
in my opinion it's one thing to come at

1727
02:17:38,479 --> 02:17:44,639
the fair board and say if you got an
issue with a particular rule and come to

1728
02:17:42,880 --> 02:17:48,479
us and complain about it, but it's
another to go and make a scene in front

1729
02:17:46,559 --> 02:17:52,719
of a bunch of members. That's where I
really draw the line. And I told her,

1730
02:17:50,479 --> 02:17:56,479
you know, hey, you if you have issues,
you can come grab Ben and I and we can

1731
02:17:55,040 --> 02:18:01,760
have a discussion. We don't need to do
it in front of everybody. Right.

1732
02:17:58,639 --> 02:18:07,359
» Was that a motion? By the way, Dave, I'm
sorry if I didn't catch it. I would like

1733
02:18:03,920 --> 02:18:11,040
to make a motion to table it and uh get
some further background information

1734
02:18:09,280 --> 02:18:12,559
before we make a decision till next
meeting.

1735
02:18:11,439 --> 02:18:14,960
» Is there a second?
>> I'll second it.

1736
02:18:14,399 --> 02:18:19,840
» Discussion.
>> There's no discussion.

1737
02:18:16,960 --> 02:18:26,080
» Oh, wait. There's not. Sorry. All right.
Motion is tabled till motion is table.

1738
02:18:23,599 --> 02:18:30,160
» Yep. Till next. All in favor?
>> I

1739
02:18:26,800 --> 02:18:34,080
» opposed. Okay. Motion carries. Next
meeting.

1740
02:18:31,519 --> 02:18:39,200
Um, okay. Consideration the report
resolutions ordinance to recommend it to

1741
02:18:36,399 --> 02:18:45,960
the county board.
Nothing. Okay. Next meeting October 5th

1742
02:18:42,479 --> 02:18:45,960
at 5:00

1743
02:18:46,000 --> 02:18:55,200
and the it is adjourned.
>> I will not be able to

1744
02:18:52,240 --> 02:18:55,200
» Okay.
