In the interest of organizing the best possible event, the Russell Agricultural Society will not necessarily accept the first 10 entry forms. The goal of the Russell Fair is to promote various areas of agriculture and we look at the first 10 different areas proposed. Expect to fill an area of 13’ x 20’ as one of ten spaces available under a 40’x 80’ tent. Each competitor will be expected to fill this space so that the space is both informative and aesthetically pleasing to the public. The tent will be set up to encourage viewers to walk through each display before reaching the area where the oral presentations will take place. Exhibitors are required to provide their own pens for their animals. Competitors will be displaying on Sunday, between the hours of 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Awards will be presented the same day after the judges’ results have been tabulated.
