TO: ALL FAIR SECRETARIES
Exhibitors at each fair should be well aware of the procedures for removal of exhibits from your fairgrounds. These procedures
should be incorporated within your premium books
Each person that visits your fair is entitled to view all exhibits. As a general rule, no exhibit should be released prior to 8:30pm the
last day of your fair. Since the Department of Agriculture and Markets is responsible for reimbursement of certain premiums, we
have a responsibility to regulate exhibits receiving these premiums. Any exhibit removed early, without your approval, will not be
eligible t0 receive premium money, or ribbons.
Exhibits removed early for entry in the State Fair will be eligible for premium reimbursement only if you have granted the exhibitor
permission for early removal. The Agricultural Coordinator at the State Fair will provide validation of entries if requested.
If I can be of any assistance, do not hesitate to contact me.

The Animal Health Requirements for the 2015 county fairs and the New York State Fair and other
relevance documents are now available online. We will not be mailing the requirements to save printing
and mailing expense. You can find the requirements by going to:
http://www.agriculture.ny.gov/AI/AIHome.html and scrolling down the page until you find the section
“County and State Fair Information.” The specific links are as follows:
2015 Fair Animal Health Requirements:
http://www.agriculture.ny.gov/AI2015_Fair_Health_Requirements.pdf
2015 Fair Interstate Health Requirements:
http://www.agriculture.ny.gov/AI/2015_Interstate_Health_Requirements.pdf
Exhibitor Prefair Guidelines:
http://www.agriculture.ny.gov/AI/Exhibitor_Prefair_Guidelines.pdf
Please forward this information to appropriate staff. The document is in PDF format which should
facilitate publishing in your fair premium book. If you have difficulty with our website or have any issues
with obtaining the documents you can contact me at james.gray@agriculture.ny.gov or (518)457-3502.
You can also request a Microsoft Word version at my email address.
For 2015 llama and alpacas must now be identified by microchip or official eartag. Drawings and
photographs are no longer acceptable. Also a section of Prefair Exhibitor Guidelines has been added at the
end of the requirements and is also available as a separate document for easy distribution. The purpose of
this section is to help guide the exhibitors through the process of meeting the fair requirements and
hopefully avoid issues at the fair.
The Department will supply tags and pliers to veterinarians and Cooperative Extension offices that have a
need to identify swine going to fairs. We also have plastic official eartags for cattle that can be supplied to
CCE for cattle projects.
The summary of interstate health requirements is also available on the website. You may wish to supply
this information to your out of state exhibitors including petting zoos, rodeos, racing pigs, circuses, etc. to
help avoid problems at fair time. You will also find a listing for poultry pullorum clinics that will be
updated as the information is available.
Representatives of the Division of Animal Industry will be in contact with their assigned fairs to review
these requirements and address any concerns prior to the fair. Questions can also be directed to our office

animal is being registered or transferred and the certificates of registry have not been returned, a statement to this effect from the
secretary of the association in question will be accepted in lieu of the certificate. This includes all ages.

of space limitations, the Fair Association reserves the right to close entries once space is filled.

9.
No passes will be given. Exhibitor weekly tickets may be purchased for $7.00 per ticket on the following basis.

Score Card
Points
Education Value
50
Display

Total
100
Educational Value: The educational value of the exhibit will be judged on the correctness of information presented, the clear
concise presentation of the subject material, the originality of presenting the information, and the value to the observer of the
material presented.
Display: This will be judged on attractiveness of exhibit, and artistic arrangement. Crowding material often detracts while
proper spacing of the material, rather than quantity, pleases the eye. A conglomerate exhibit is neither educational nor easy to
analyze.
Correctness of Naming: Samples should be correctly named. Varieties or samples misnamed will be scored against. Signs
should be legible and printing should be large enough so that it may be easily identified.

Prior to the organization of The Boonville Fair Association, the Boonville Union Agricultural Society, which was organized in 1871, held fairs for a
number of years with a reasonable degree of success on the grounds leased by it of the Boonville Driving Park Association. This society gradually declined and
finally went out of existence and was succeeded by the present association.
The first Fair held by the Boonville Fair Association was on the dates of September 11, 12, 13, and 14, 1888, on the grounds leased by it of the
Driving Park Association, which is the present location, except that considerable land has been added since that time.
In 1905, the Association purchased the lands, which were at that time known as the fair ground property and which included what was known as the
Avery house and lot of W.R. Tanner. This consisted of about 17 acres of land. Later, about 10 more acres of land was purchased. In 1970, three acres of land
was purchased from the Adirondack School District. Extensive reclamation was necessary to utilize this property. Also extensive improvements have been
made throughout the various years from the proceeds derived from the operation of the Fair.
Distinguished Persons at the Fair
During the years of the fair, many people prominent in the world of affairs have been present, notable Ex-President William Howard Taft, who made
an address from the grandstand before a large assemblage of people. The rain came down in torrents but notwithstanding it was one of the most notable of days
here. In the ex-president’s party were Thomas R. and Fred T. Proctor, George E. Dunham, Hon. Charles L. Knapp, Hon. F.M. Davenport, and Capt. Mayer.
Governor Charles E. Hughes gave an address at the fair as did also Governor Whitman and Governor Sulzer.
Carrie Nation of saloon hatchet fame, gave an interesting address and Edward Payson Weston spoke, gave a new exhibition in walking and judged
the baby show.
Untied States senator James W. Wadsworth, Billy Sunday, the famous evangelist, Mayor LaGuardia and many other men of note have given
addresses here.
On August 4, 1936, the Boonville Fair Association had for its guest speaker Henry A. Wallace, Secretary of Agriculture in President Franklin D.
Roosevelt’s cabinet. A reception committee greeted him at the Hulbert House at 2:30 and 3 o’clock, he was escorted to the Fairgrounds, speaking from the
platform in front of the grandstand. President of the Fair Clayton A. Musser, introduced Congressman Fred J. Sisson who in turn introduced Secretary Wallace.
Those who accompanied Secretary Wallace were Mayor Corrou of Utica, Commissioner of Public Safety Beebe, a delegation of prominent citizens of Utica,
and Mayor Arlington of Herkimer who headed a delegation from Herkimer County. On the platform were also prominent citizens from many cities and towns,
Paul Williams, editor of the Utica Press, and other representatives of the press of metropolitan dailies.
On August 5, 1942, Thomas E. Dewey, former governor of New York State, accompanied by several prominent Uticans, were guests of the
Boonville Fair Association, at which time Mr. Dewey was the guest speaker.
On August 5, 1966, Nelson Rockefeller, Governor of New York State, greeted the crowds, participated in the Tractor Pulling Contest and gave a
short address from the stage.
On August 6, 1971, the Fair Association honored Commissioner Wickham on his anticipated retirement and declared the day Donald J. Wickham
Day. A plaque was awarded Mr. Wickham
41
On August 4, 1972, the Fair Association honored the newly appointed Commissioner Frank Walkley, declared the day Frank Walkley Day and
presented him with a plaque. In 1979, Commissioner Roger Barber visited the Fair. On August 4, 1983, Commissioner Joseph Gerace met with local dairy
farmers at show tent. On July 29, 1994, Commissioner Richard McGuire visited the Fair.
Over the years, the Boonville Fair has brought to the area the finest entertainment. But in the field of country music, the record of
the fair has been unsurpassed. Beginning in 1961 with the Kitty Wells show, some of the finest country shows and stars have appeared: Connie
Smith (1969 & 1971), Jeanne C. Riley (1973 & 1984). Barbara Mandrell (1972-75-78), Crystal Gayle (1977). Dolly Parton (1974), Charley McClain (1980),
Donna Fargo (1982), Jim Ed Brown (1983), and many others, but all have been nationally acclaimed entertainers.
The Boonville Fair celebrated its 100th Anniversary July 25-31, 1988, with great entertainment and fine but hot weather. Visiting the Fair were the
Garfield Cadets, National Junior Drum Corps, Herb Read and the original Platters, the famous Budweiser Clydesdales, Joie Chitwood Chevy Thunder Show,
and Louise Mandrell. On Wednesday evening Porter Wagoner entertained and was Master of Ceremonies for a birthday celebration with a cake that served
4000 grandstand patrons. That evening was climaxed with a great fireworks display. All grandstand shows were free and there were other fine shows along
with the Coleman Bros. Midway. Of special interest was the conversion of the Executive Office into a delightful and interesting Museum decorated with
artifacts, old pictures, displays, and carnival glass, as well as having a continuous slide show of past fairs. Many other events were held and the fair set a new
attendance record, exceeding 50, 000 people.
In December 1992, a new Executive Office was completed for year-round use. With grants form both the County and State several major repairs
were made. 1994-95 the grandstand was rebuilt and new bleachers added. In 1997 a new cattle barn was constructed. In 1998 a major midway was paved with
aide from Coleman Bros. Shows, and 1999 marked the 50 th anniversary of the Coleman Shows at the Fair.
Marilyn Trainor served as president of the N.Y. Association of Agricultural fairs 1998-99. Class acts have been appearing such as Blackhawk in
1997, Diamond Rio in 1998 and Martina McBride in 1999. In 2000 the Fair had to cancel the Lorrie Morgan show because of inclement weather. Shotgun Red,
Steve Hall and The Shot Gun Red Band made their first appearance to the 2001 Boonville Fair. Nathan L. Rudgers Agricultural Commissioner was present for
the 100 years of 4-H and Legislators’ BBQ. In 2003 Mr. Newell Wagoner celebrated Forty Years as President of the Fair and Alberta Schallenberg celebrated
67 years as a 4-H Volunteer Leader. Governor George Patacki made a special visit to the Fair on Saturday July 26, 2003. The Boonville Fair in 2005 had a
return visit from Governor George Patacki , with great weather , the fair saw an increase in attendance over the 2004 Fair. In 2006 the Boonville Fair had a
change in management, after 42 years as president Newell Wagoner retired and Harlan Bellinger took over as president. The weather had an effect on the
attendance at the Fair, BlackHawk returned to the stage for a country and western show, the weather again had an effect on the attendance of the show, although
those who attended enjoyed a great performance from the group. Two new pole barns were built on the Fair Grounds with grants received. One was a new
cattle barn and the other was used as the show pavilion these barns were an added attraction to the fair. Tommy Cash appeared with his band and Craig Wilkins
and his band preformed for a Saturday night concert.
The 2008 Fair saw several rainy days and nights, by the end of the week skis cleared for Friday and Sunday. Saturday was the first time for a
Monster truck show and even through rain came the show went on. We had racing pigs return to the Fair and it was a great show.
The 2009 Boonville Fair saw a decline in attendance due to the weather. The Fair lost two long time directors Kenny Youngs and Frank Stysh.
Kenny was an announcer for many of the tractor shows during fair week and he was also involved in getting country entertainment at the fair. He announced his
own talk show, from the fair grounds over WBRV during Fair week. Frank had a life interest and association with the operation of the fair, He served as a
director, vice president a longtime member of the premium committee, and chairman of the horse pull competition held during the Fair. Both of these fine
gentlemen will be sadly missed by the association.
The 2010 Fair saw beautiful weather with only one evening of rain. Jane Bellinger stepped down as treasurer after over 30 years of service. Judie
Dellerba became our new treasurer. Attendance saw an increase as the weather was the best it had been in over 10 years. In January 2010 at the NYS Fair
Convention in Rochester, NY Newell Wagoner was inducted into NYSAAF Hall of Fame.
The 123rd Boonville Fair was a successful Fair considering the bad weather that caused several Fairs in NY to close down. We had several changes
that were a benefit to the Fair and the over all attendance was about the same considering a few days of rain. Mr. Newell Wagoner was the Grand Marshall for
the 123rd Boonville Fair Parade and it was truly an honor as Newell has been a member of the Boonville Fair for over 50 years. Fred Kline celebrated his 50th
year of managing the NY State Sire Stakes and was recognized for his commitment to this event. It was a very successful event for the Fair as over 100 horses
raced on that day.
The Boonville Fair is still very much an Agriculture Fair and will continue with that tradition with the many events that are put on during the week.
The 124th Boonville Fair started off on a sad note with the death of George Kahler. For a number of years George was superintendent of the
commercial building. He rode around the grounds in his orange cart with his wife Gail by his side. Gail passed away a few weeks after George. Their love for
the fair and dedication will always be a treasure to remember. Charles Mahaffy was Grand Marshall for the parade and praised for his dedication to the Fair.
The fair was a successful event and the directors look forward to the celebrating the”125” in 2013.
The 125th Boonville Oneida county fair was off to a great start, but again the weather played a major part in the attendance during the week, with
only a few nice days and a rainy weekend we still were able to bring to the area and Agriculture Fair that will continue to be a tradition to Oneida County. The
concert on Saturday night was held even the rains came and the crowd was few, the Fox Brothers gave a 100% performance and a gigantic Fireworks display
returned to the grounds to make a rainy but wonderful evening. We look forward to the 126 th Boonville Fair with a few changes that will be a welcome site for
everyone who attends.
The 126th Boonville Oneida County Fair was one of the best fairs that was held on the fairgrounds in a few years, the weather played a big part with
the success of the Fair that was noted all week. Attendance was up along with more vendors and two great free shows. The Us FMX motorcycle stunt show
came to the Fair on Saturday and was spectacular with mid-air maneuvers and insane back flips. Erin Hamlin was the grand marshal for the parade and signed
autographs after the parade. 4-H members did a fantastic job showing off their skills and the fair was well represented at the State Fair in Syracuse. Several new
members were introduced to the Fair Board. In April Gene Hendrickson, a member of the Fair Board for over 30 years passed away. Mr. Newell Wagoner
gave up his position as Fair Secretary, but still remains a very important member of the Boonville Oneida County Fair. The Association is looking forward to
the 127th Fair with enthusiasm and excitement.
