“The Show Must Go On”

The 2021 Faulkner County Fair will be the 83rd event of this nature. Our success has depended mainly on the helpof every organization of men and women in the county and numerous county and city officials. At the risk of leavingsomeone out, we especially want to express our appreciation for the assistance given to the Fair by the following: City ofConway (especially the Mayor’s office, the City Council and the Parks & Recreation Department), Faulkner County(especially the County Judge’s office, County Road Department, and Quorum Court), the Agriculture Teachers at all ofthe County Schools, the many 4-H volunteers, Conway Area Chamber of Commerce, Faulkner County Master Gardeners,the numerous individuals that volunteer to serve on the many Fair committees and all our exhibitors. We offer specialgratitude and appreciation to the Extension Agents and staff of the Faulkner County Extension Office without whoseassistance we could not conduct our annual Fair.

The fair board also takes this opportunity to say “thank you” to every citizen of Faulkner County (especiallythose who attend the Fair) for your splendid cooperation in the past. With your continued help and support, FaulknerCounty will continue to be a “Better Place in Which to Live.”

Faulkner County Bred Market Hog – Division 2

The Faulkner County Bred Grand or Reserve Grand will not be selected from the premium sale line up, as in

past years.

After the end of the Grand Champion drive and all the class winners have been lined up for the premium sale,

we will follow these steps in the selection:

1. If the Grand or Reserve Grand (or both) from the market show IS FC BRED, they will be awarded as placed

from the show the highest placing available. Example: If the Reserve Grand is FC BRED and the Grand is not,

then the Reserve Grand is the FC BRED Grand Champion.

2. If the Grand or Reserve Grand IS NOT FC BRED, we will hold a class of the highest placing FC BRED animals

from each class of breed and crossbred market hogs for the selection of FC BRED Grand and Reserve Grand

Market Hog.

3. The second highest class placing animal will be in the holding pen ready to drive if the animal placing above

them is selected.

4. If there are no FC BRED animals that place in the top 7 placing for a class, that class will be omitted from the

FC BRED drive.

5. Once the FC BRED Grand and Reserve Grand have been selected the remaining hogs will be dismissed and we

will continue with the selection of the remaining sale order.

6. No points will be awarded, only ribbons will be given.

7. Sow must be owned and bred in Faulkner County. Market Hog must be born in Faulkner County to be

eligible for this class.

8. Animals must be nominated for the fair by August 31st, 2021 with the Faulkner County Extension Office.

9. The breeder of the swine must sign the nomination form certifying that the animal was born and bred in

Faulkner County.

10. Swine classes will be divided by weight or breed.

11. Exhibitors must have ownership of the animals by July 1, 2021 to be eligible to show in this class.

12. When completing online entries, you will need to know all the contact info for your breeder to enter them as

Faulkner County Bred

Market Hogs – Division 3Market Hogs will be divided into classes by weight or breed.

Minimum Weight: 160 pounds Maximum Weight: 280 pounds.

In 2021, we will start the Market Hog Show with the Market Breed classes. We are going to follow the State

Fair format on a trial basis. We will show all recognized breed species that hold record for that breed. These

entries will not be registered with their respective breed but must follow that breed’s guidelines.

Listed are the breeds that will be eligible: Berkshire, Chester White, Duroc, Hampshire, Landrace, Poland

China, Spot, and Yorkshire.

81The following rules will be set for the breed classes.

1. There must be at least 7 animals of that breed to make a class. If there are not enough animals to make a class,

we will have an AOB (All Other Breeds) class, providing there are 7 hogs to make up the AOB class. These

hogs must be present at show, not just nominated.

2. Each class will be placed 1st through 7th just as all market classes.

3. If there is only one class for that breed, the champion for that breed will be awarded at the time of the class.

4. The top 7 hogs of each breed will be selected by the judge to return for Grand Overall Drive and sale order

selection. Judge’s discretion will then be used to determine whether more than 7 hogs from each breed will

be retained for sale order selection.

5. Each exhibitor will be responsible for declaring their own animal’s breed. FCF Swine committee will not be

responsible for making that decision for you.

6. If you declare your animal to be of a breed and the judge feels your animal does not follow that breed’s

characteristics you may be disqualified from that class. The judge’s decision is final.

7. The Faulkner County Fair Swine Committee reserves the right to amend these rules as needed to benefit the

show or exhibitors.

The Market Show line-up will be as follows.

1. Breed classes will be alphabetically lined up. Example: If you have a Berkshire appearing hog, you will show

before a Yorkshire appearing hog will show.

2. The crossbred classes will begin following the breeding classes, and will be divided by weight from 160 to 280

lbs.

3. At the end of the show all class champions and breed overall champions will return to the ring for Faulkner

County Fair Grand Champion Market Hog. Once the Grand has been awarded, the second-place animal from

the class the Grand was chosen from will enter the ring for consideration of Reserve Grand Market Hog. Once

the Reserve has been awarded any 2nd place animal will be removed from the ring, and we will begin the

sale order lineup of all the champions.

4. Once the champions are done, we will hold the Faulkner County Bred if there is a need for this class to be

exhibited. We will refer to the FC Bred rule to make this decision.

5. All the 2nd place animals from breeding and cross bred will then enter the ring, and we will finish the show

with selecting the remainder of the sale animals.

Invest in Faulkner County YouthThe Faulkner County Fair encourages you to invest in our Faulkner County youth by supporting the Premium Auction

Sale. Each year, 4-H and FFA members select and train animals to show at the County Fair.These animals represent a large part of the summer activities for these youth. Many hours are spent feeding, training,

and grooming these animals so they will be in top condition for the county fair.Through these projects, these young people learn important life skills such as proper methods of livestock production

and management, self-discipline, and sportsmanship. They develop personal pride, leadership qualities, and anunderstanding of the economics of agriculture.

The auction is a fun event during the fair and you will not want to miss seeing the young people and theiraward-winning animals.

Your support in making bids on these projects will contribute to helping these youth meet their obligations to payfeed bills and bank notes. Profits made will either be used to finance next year’s project, or to help with a college

education.Bidding at the auction is easy. You are bidding on a bonus to be paid to the young exhibitor above the market value

they will receive from the processing company. Don’t worry; you will not have to take possession of the livestock. Thisyear’s event features champion animals to include steers, hogs, lambs, meat goats, two (2) pens of broilers, champion

meat rabbit pen, and champion meat rabbit single fryer.

There are three ways you can support our Faulkner County Livestock Auction:1. Bid on an animal at the Auction.

2. Donate to the Auction for a specific youth as an add-on.3. Donate to the Auction for youth with animals that did not make the sale

HISTORY OF THE FAULKNER COUNTY FAIR

On March 19, 1909 the first Faulkner County Fair Association was formed by The Conway Board of Tradeunder the leadership of its President, Jo Frauenthal and its Secretary, G. L. Bahner. The Fair Association Boardof Directors consisted of the following: H. B. Ingram (President), Stonewall Anderson (Vice President), L. C.Holman (Secretary), B. L. Harton (Treasurer), Jo Frauenthal, S. G. Smith, and William J. Grummer. L. C. Perrywas appointed the first Fair Manager, but moved from Conway in July 1909. Frank Farris was appointed tosucceed him. The first Faulkner County Fair was held on October 4th through October 7th, 1909 on propertyowned by Judge Sam Frauenthal, which was bounded on the south by Oak Street, on the west by HarkriderStreet, on the north by Mill Street and on the east by Ingram. Governor Donaghey opened the first FaulknerCounty Fair at 11:30 a.m. on October 4th, 1909. The first Faulkner County Fair was a success, however in theyears to follow the fair began losing money. In August of 1915 the Faulkner County Fair decided it was in the bestinterest not to continue with a fair. Other than some county farm club fairs, there was not another FaulknerCounty Fair until 1938.

Under the leadership of the Young Businessmen’s Association, Faulkner County Free Fair was held in abuilding at the northwest corner of Locust Street and Oak Street. The president of the YBMA was R. A. McNuttand the Fair Chairman was Robert W. Mosley. Others on the fair committee were Theo Ashcraft (Treasurer), E.D. Bell, Dr. O. D. Smith, S. D. Mitchell, Eugene Hankins and Mrs. Dora Stubblefield. The first fair in 1938 wassuch a success that it was decided to have a county fair the next year. From 1939 through 1942, the county fairwas held on S. T. Smith’s property at the northwest corner of Van Ronkle Street and Markham Street. In 1945 theCounty Fair was held at the Conway Airport property.

In 1946 the YMBA purchased property on Robins Street from Father Anthony Lachowsky and theFaulkner County Fair was held on this property through 2009. 2010 was the start of a new era for the FaulknerCounty Fair. From its new location off Hwy. 64 to the luxury of new facilities, the Faulkner County Fair is sure tobe a success for many years to come.
