AMBASSADOR COMPETITION FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2022, AT 7:00 PM In Entertainment Building

2019 – 2020 Ambassador Jessica McKillop

Growing up in Wallacetown, I thought I knew the Wallacetown Fair pretty well, but as the 20192020 Wallacetown Fair Ambassador, I got to experience the fair from a whole new perspective.

I am so grateful that I have had the opportunity to represent Wallacetown and participate in events like the Ontario Association of Agricultural Societies (OAAS) convention, the district 13 meeting, and most of all the Wallacetown Fair.

As I grew up, I aged out of some events like the 4H youth sheep show. It was a great feeling to be involved in those events again. But even after the Wallacetown Fair weekend had ended, my experiences as the ambassador had hardly begun.

The friendships I made at the OAAS convention will last a lifetime and if I take one thing away from this experience, it will be the new friends I made from all over Ontario, I am so eager to represent the Wallacetown Fair at the Canadian National Exhibition this August – and if you’re wondering just how eager, you should know that I started writing my speech in February.

As my time as the Wallacetown Fair ambassador winds down, I want to thank the fair board and their volunteers for all of the hard work they do to put the Wallacetown Fair together. I want to wish the best of luck to the ambassador contestants and to the 20212022 Wallacetown Fair Ambassador, cherish your time as the fair ambassador because it goes by faster than you would think.

Many thanks, Jessie McKillop 7

The Wallacetown Agricultural Society The Wallacetown Fair Poultry Show this year is being staged with the assistance of and in co-operation with the Elgin-Middlesex Poultry and Pigeon Association.

The Show secretary and other helpers are volunteer members of the Elgin-Middlesex Poultry and Pigeon Association. Although this is not an “APA.” Sanctioned Show, the Rules of competition will be based on the guidelines established by the American Poultry Association, one of the oldest livestock organizations in North America.

CLASS 17 POULTRY SHOW 5. Display cages will be supplied for Large and Bantam Chickens, Ducks and Guinea Fowl classes. Exhibitors showing Geese and Turkeys must supply their own cages. Some classes may have to be doubled cooped at the Show Secretary’s discretion.

6. Exhibitors may enter any of the Breeds and varieties of Poultry which are recognized by the American Poultry Association as listed on the APA website (https://amerpoultryassn.com/). This year the Wallacetown Fair Poultry Show will offer a class for every recognized Breed for which entry applications are received. However, if Exhibitors have more than one variety of the same breed the different varieties will all compete in the same Class under the Breed name. Acknowledging that certain colour varieties are very popular, after entries are received in any Class where twelve or more birds are of one breed are entered for competition, the Show Secretary will have the discretionary right to make an additional Class for a particular variety(s) of the Breed, (Most APA recognized varieties are differentiated by plumage colour or other characteristics mentioned in the APA Standard descriptions).

7. Within each Class, competition is divided into 4 Sections (Applicable section to be indicated for each bird you enter): • • • •

cock/old male (hatched previous year or earlier) hen/old female (hatched previous year or earlier) cockerel/young male (hatched in current year) pullet/young female (hatched in current year)

In each of these Sections, cash prizes will be: First: $4.00; Second: $3.00; Third: $2.00.

8. In Sections of Classes, if there is only one Exhibitor entered, the Judge shall be empowered to award a second, a third or no prize, where the Judge considers the Exhibit does not merit a first prize.

9. In any Class, Exhibitors may show as many entries as they wish.

72

The forms will be available on the Wallacetown Fair website by 1 August 2022, questions or entry forms can be submitted to the Poultry Show Secretary appointed by the ElginMiddlesex Poultry and Pigeon Association: Morgaine Halpin at contact@elginmiddlesexpoultry.ca.

13. Entries will be accepted up to the capacity of the showroom. Priority will be given to entries received in advance but, subject to timing and practicalities, this entry limitation would be applied on a pro-rate basis to allow participation by as many Exhibitors as feasible.

14. Any bird(s) showing signs of sickness will be removed from the showroom immediately. This will be strictly enforced.
