2017 THEME MEMORIALIZES FIRST PRESIDENT The Rockingham County Fair Association’s 2017 theme, “Our Roots Run Deep”, was selected from a competitive field of 345 entries and serves the dual purpose of being a theme and a dedication to Charlie Wampler.

“We considered many entries and selected one that we felt would enable us to memorialize our first president, Charlie Wampler, who passed away earlier this year,” said Brian Carpenter, President of the Rockingham County Fair Association’s Board of Directors. “In addition, the concept also applies to the long-standing support and strength of the fair which is rooted by volunteers. Our roots, our volunteers, and our agricultural heritage in the county do run deep.”

The artwork for the theme was developed with Charlie Wampler as the focus. He organized the current Rockingham County Fair Association and served as its president for from 1948 – 1973. The number of ribbons on the tree represent his life (101) in which he served the community in the poultry industry, through volunteer service, and as an elected state official. Some of the ribbons are larger and represent his 25 years as leader of the fair.

The winning theme entry was submitted by Courtney Griffin, of Broadway, VA, who will receive a pair of tickets for gate admission to the Rockingham County Fair for all 6 days plus a pair of tickets for each event in the Pepsi Grandstand for the 2017 Fair. Ashley Adams submitted the same theme idea several days after the winning entry and she will also receive gate admission to all 6 days of the 2017 Fair.

IAFE (International Association of Fairs and Expositions) CODE OF SHOWRING ETHICS shall govern all Rockingham County Fair livestock shows: Exhibitors of animals at livestock shows shall at all times deport themselves with honesty and good sportsmanship.

Their conduct in this competitive environment shall always reflect the highest standards of honor and dignity to promote the advancement of agricultural education. This code applies to junior (youth) as well as open class exhibitors who compete in structured classes of competition. This code applies to all livestock offered in any event at a livestock show. In addition to the National Code of Show Ring Ethics, fairs and livestock shows may have rules and regulations which they impose on the local, county, state, provincial and national levels.

All youth leaders working with junior exhibitors are under an affirmative responsibility to do more than avoid improper conduct or questionable acts. Their moral values must be so certain and positive that those younger and more pliable will be influenced by their fine example. Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers and absolutely responsible persons who violate the code of ethics will forfeit premiums, awards and auction proceeds and shall be prohibited from future exhibition in accordance with the rules adopted by the Rockingham County Fair. Exhibitors who violate this code of ethics demean the integrity of all livestock exhibitors and should be prohibited from competition at all livestock shows in the United States and Canada.

The following is a list of guidelines for all exhibitors and all livestock in competitive events: 1. All exhibitors must present, upon request of fair and livestock show officials, proof of ownership, length of ownership and age of all animals entered.

Misrepresentation of ownership, age, or any facts relating thereto is prohibited.

2. Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers, or absolutely responsible persons shall provide animal health certificates from licensed veterinarians upon request by fair or livestock show officials.

3. Youth exhibitors are expected to care for and groom their animals while at fairs or livestock shows. For the Rockingham County Fair, assistance may only be provided by the parents and family members, a bona fide 4-H volunteer leader enrolled in Virginia, Virginia Extension Agent, Virginia FFA Instructor, or another exhibitor with animals entered in the show.

4 Animals shall be presented to show events where they will enter the food chain free of violative drug residues.

The act of entering an animal in a livestock show is the giving of consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer and/or absolutely responsible person for show management to obtain any specimens of urine, saliva, blood, or other substances from the animal to be used in testing. Animals not entered in an event which culminates with the animal entering the food chain shall not be administered drugs other than in accordance with applicable federal, state and provincial statutes, regulations and rules. Livestock shall not be exhibited if the drugs administered in accordance with federal, state and provincial statutes, regulations and rules affect the animal’s performance or appearance at the event. i) If the laboratory report on the analysis of saliva, urine, blood, or other sample taken from livestock indicates the presence of forbidden drugs or medication, this shall be prima facie evidence such substance has been administered to the animal either internally or externally. It is presumed that the sample of urine, saliva, blood, or other substance tested by the laboratory to which it is sent is the one taken from the animal in question, its integrity is preserved and all procedure of said collection and preservation, transfer to the laboratory and analysis of the sample are correct and accurate and the report received from the laboratory pertains to the sample taken from the animal in question and correctly reflects the condition of the animal at the time the sample was taken, with the burden on the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person to prove otherwise. ii) At any time after an animal arrives on the fair or livestock show premises, all treatments involving the use of drugs and/or medications for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal shall be administered by a licensed veterinarian.

5. Any surgical procedure or injection of any foreign substance or drug or the external application of any substance (irritant, counterirritant, or similar substance) which could affect the animal’s performance or alter its natural contour, conformation, or appearance, except external applications of substances to the hoofs or horns of animals which affect appearance only and except for surgical procedures performed by a duly licensed veterinarian for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal, is prohibited.

6. The use of showing and/or handling practices or devices such as striking animals to cause swelling, using electrical contrivance, or other similar practices are not acceptable and are prohibited.

7. Direct criticism or interference with the judge, fair or livestock show management, other exhibitors, breed representatives, or show officials before, during, or after the competitive event is prohibited. In the furtherance of their official duty, all judges, fair and livestock show management, or other show officials shall be treated with courtesy, cooperation and respect and no person shall direct abusive or threatening conduct toward them.

8. No owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person shall conspire with another person or persons to intentionally violate this code of ethics or knowingly contribute or cooperate with another person or persons either by affirmative action or inaction to violate this code of ethics. Violation of this rule shall subject such individual to disciplinary action.

9. The application of this code of ethics provides for absolute responsibility for an animal’s condition by an owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or participant whether or not he or she was actually instrumental in or had actual knowledge of the treatment of the animal in contravention of this code of ethics.

10. The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely

responsible person to have disciplinary action taken by the fair or livestock show for violation of this Code of Show Ring Ethics and any other rules of competition of the fair or livestock show without recourse against the fair or livestock show. The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent that any proceedings or disciplinary action taken by the fair or livestock show may be published with the name of the violator or violators in any publication of the International Association of Fairs and Expositions, including Fairs and Expositions and any special notices to members.

11. The act of entering of an animal in a fair or livestock show is the giving of verification by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person that he or she has read the IAFE National Code of Show Ring Ethics and understands the consequences of and penalties provided for actions prohibited by the code. It is further a consent that any action which contravenes these rules and is also in violation of federal, state, or provincial statutes, regulations, or rules may be released to appropriate law enforcement authorities with jurisdiction over such infractions.

Rockingham County Fair: · If, in the opinion of the Department Superintendent, an exhibitor who violates any of the rules governing the Fair or any violation of this Code will result in forfeiture of premiums and awards, disqualification, possible loss of sale proceeds, and probationary status and/or loss of eligibility for future competition at the Rockingham County Fair or other penalties as deemed appropriate by the Department Superintendent, Fair President and the General Manager. · An overview committee consisting of at least three people generally recognized as knowledgeable of livestock management and exhibition are responsible for the administration of this Code. Their decisions are final and are not subject to appeal.

· The Board of Directors of the Rockingham County Fair Association reserves the right to interpret all rules and regulations and resolve any situation which may arise and is not restricted by the lack of an omission of a specific rule or regulation.

FEED RATION BASICS A growing heifer weighing 700# will consume about 2.5% of her weight per day in Dry Matter. A 500# heifer, about 3.0% and a 1000# heifer about 2.0%. With that in mind the 700# heifer will consume about 17.5# of dry matter per day. This dry matter will be made up of a good grain mix and good quality grass hay until there is a good source of pasture available.

A good rule of thumb is to feed about 2# of 12-14% protein grain per 100# of body weight. Some heifers may require a little more, depending on frame size and body condition. This would give your 700# heifer about 14# of 12-14% grain mix per day. If you are a 2X a day feeder… feed 7# in the morning and 7# in the evening. The grain mix will average about 85% dry matter; so 14# of an 85% DM feed would contribute about 10# of the needed dry matter intake for your heifer.

A 700# heifer should consume about 17.5# of dry matter so we are still short about 8# of needed dry matter for your heifer. This will need to be made up with good quality grass hay or other feed stuffs, including pasture.

If there is pasture available, this will control the hay intake and also your feed bill. Consider hay to be approximately 85% dry matter as well. To make up 8# of DM this would require approximately 10# of hay for your 700# heifer.

7.

GETTING STARTED WITH YOUR HEIFER PROJECT AND FOLLOWING THROUGH Start with a heifer weighing at least approximately 600# the first of October or larger if available. Try to grow your heifer at a rate if 1.25-1.75# per day. You want her to be at least 800# and 13-15 months of age by the end of April and ready for breeding. Continue feeding to the goal of 950-1050# by fair time and a heifer checked safe with calf.

Dave and Patsy Jordan, Department Superintendents

As she grows gradually increase her grain each day and as spring comes, hopefully grass will make up a good portion of her daily intake.

So, long story short from a dry matter perspective, a 700# heifer should eat on the average, 2# of 12-14% grain mix and 2# (or so) of good quality grass hay per 100# of body weight each day. Certainly, you could get more in depth, balancing the ration for energy, protein and minerals, but for now, leave that to the feed company producing your grain mix.

Your heifer should be approaching 800# + and be 15 months of age by breeding time. Hopefully this will occur at least by the end of April before the fair to give ample time for several services if necessary and to allow for a vet to certify she is safe with calf. As she approaches 15 months and 800# she will begin heat cycling. If you have several heifers together you may notice some riding of each other and you may notice some unusual unruliness if you try the handle her during this period of time. As you see these cycles start, try to write down the day you saw the activity and watch for it again in approximately 21 days. The estrous cycle averages between 17-24 days, depending on the individual.

If you plan to breed AI, you will need to service your heifer 12 hours following standing heat. In other words, if you see her stand “rock solid” still when another heifer jumps up on her and it’s in the morning, then breed her that evening. If you see her standing in the evening, then you should breed her the next morning.

HISTORY OF THE ROCKINGHAM COUNTY FAIR History of the Rockingham County Fair

Rockingham County Fair Past Presidents

By Dennis Cupp

The current Rockingham County Fair Association, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization and held its first Fair at the Linville Edom High School north of Harrisonburg in 1949. As told by the fair’s first president Charlie Wampler, the commercial exhibit chairman had the commercial exhibit booth partitions nailed to the gym floor to the great displeasure of the school principal.

The first three-day fair in 1949 made a profit of approximately $130 and, as reported in the local Daily News Record, 5,000 were in attendance. Additional officers were: E.W. Roller, 1st Vice President of VoAg teachers at Broadway and Timberville; H. T. Acker, Sr, 2nd Vice President and 4-H leader from Port Republic; Eva Minix, 3rd Vice President and Virginia Cooperative Extension Home Demonstration Agent; Welty Holsinger, 4th Vice President and 4-H leaders from Pleasant Hill; T. L. Holoman, Secretary and Virginia Coopertaive Extension 4-H Agent; and P. A. “Dick” Carver, Treasurer, poultry business in Dayton, VA.

Rockingham County Fair. It promised “Upto-date Exhibits, New Novelties and the Best Fair Ever.”

In 1953 land was purchased on Kratzer Road just north of Harrisonburg and the fair was moved there from Linville Edom High School where it had been for three years.

In 1979 the Kratzer fairgrounds property was sold to R. R. Donnelley for $1.5 million dollars and 111 acres were purchased from Hazel Wenger and Dennis Early. The new property is one half mile south of Harrisonburg and it was here that several of the buildings were moved from the existing fairgrounds and new ones were also constructed.

Many fairs, however, were hosted by various organizations and 4-H and FFA were held prior to this at a variety of sites in Harrisonburg, Lacey Springs, and Ed’s Park at Rawley Springs. One archived news article indicates that the “First Annual County Fair at Rockingham” was conducted in 1891. This Fair advertised “jousting, good music, and a grand balloon ascension” where two daredevils ascended to 8,000 feet then parachuted back to earth in “the most daring and thrilling act ever undertaken by an aeronaut.”

In 1980 the first fair was conducted at the new location and included a 21,000-squarefoot exhibit hall; a barn complex with more than 80,000 square feet providing space for hundreds of hogs, sheep, goats, beef and dairy cattle; a farm museum; a building for horticulture, flowers and farm crop displays; and numerous food concession buildings operated by local civic organizations. A 3,200 square foot Virginia Poultry Industry Center including a museum and animal display facility have been added to the assets of the property.

In 1915, the Fair organization distributed advertising flyers throughout the county that was recognizing the 50th anniversary of the U.S. War Between the States. A currency-sized flyer that was printed featured one side that was a facsimile of a $100 Confederate bill while the opposite side was printed with an ad for the 1915

The Rockingham County Fair is recognized as one of the leading agricultural fairs.
