Tickets for each performance can be purchased at the gate for $10 for adults and $5 for children 6-10. Children age 5 and younger will be admitted free when with a paid adult.

It will take two event tickets per adult and one per child to attend the rodeo. The annual fair rodeo is sponsored by B&W Trailer Hitches, Humboldt and Twin Motors Ford, Iola.

The Allen County rodeo is sanctioned by the United

For boys and girls ages 7 and under, Friday has the boot/shoe race and Saturday features a stick horse race.

The boot/shoe race has each child taking off one boot or shoe, putting in the pile at the center of the rodeo arena then it’s off to the races. The first three children to find their boot or shoe, put it on and cross the finish line will receive cash prizes.

In Saturday’s stick horse race the first three children to cross the finish line with their stick horses will win

For boys and girls ages 8 to 12, both nights of the rodeo will have a chicken scramble.

Rinehart family — Logan Pals HUMBOLDT­­ — Abby and Zoey Rinehart have their 4-H focus primarily on arts and crafts, although they’re dedicated to ensuring their pigs stay healthy for the upcoming Allen County Fair.

Zoey’s primary love is woodworking. At 11, she’s comfortable handling a drill and scroll saw that her dad, Dean, uses in his business, Dean Rinehart Construction.

Her favorite woods are oak and walnut. “They have a lot of grain,” she said of the hard woods.

Her other interests include fashion construction and modeling and photography.

Karlie Stephens — Prairie Rose “The year before last, my calf didn’t have a tongue,” she said. Last year’s had a deformed tail.

Oh, and she’s won grand championships with both.

Stephens, daughter of George and Lori Stephens of rural Moran, is on a three-year grand champion winning streak in bucket calf. (She took the reserve champion her first year with the fair.)

The key may be in the amount of time Stephens spends with her animals. She walks her calf twice a day, leads it with a show stick,

washes it twice weekly and gives it plenty of time to rest.

Stephens’ fair schedule is packed with other activities.

She’ll again show her pigs (she was overall reserve champion last year), as well as her gardening, provided the searing summer heat cooperates, and will enter a quilt as part of the fiber arts competition.

Up to now, Stephens’ summer has been filled with softball, dance and volleyball camp.

But now the fair preparation takes center stage. After that is the state fair and the Junior Livestock Show in Wichita in late September.

Her parents are on hand to assist with chores if Ste-

phens is busy with her other activities. And she’s relied on quilting lessons from her grandmother to help with two quilts, one with Kansas State University Wildcat decor, the other an orange and black piece dedicated to Marmaton Valley, where she’ll be a sixth-grader.

Stephens also is preparing a special dance piece with several of her fellow Cooper Studios Dance Center students during a free performance during fair week.

“It’s a lot of work, but it’s fun.”
