WHEAT LAND COMMUNITIES’FAIR BOARD

Fritz Coon ........................................... PresidentJanet Manke ............................... Vice-PresidentJodie Esser ......................................... SecretaryAaron Esser ........................................TreasurerDana Telecky ....Livestock Sale Committee Sec.Kris Robbins ...............................Board Member

The members of the fair board are serving without any compensation, other than the pleasure received

in promoting a worthwhile community enterprise.

Dear Fairgoers, On behalf of the fair board and all the volunteers who make it all come to-gether, I’d like to welcome you to this year’s fair. We’ve come along way in the 25 years since the Wheat Land Communi-ties’ Fair was organized. Born in an effort to continue the tradition of a fair in Eastern Adams County. The communities of Ritzville, Lind, Washtucna and Benge along with the surrounding areas, pulled together not only the finances, but through inspiration and perspiration moved the fair to the ash covered plain north of Ritzville. From those difficult early years we’ve grown to a facilities and grounds of which we can be proud. From once a year use, to a season long list of activities that includes weddings, reunions, receptions, livestock and horse events to name just a few. Overnight camping with RV hookups are avail-able season long. This is your fair, born and conducted by volunteers form throughout Eastern Adams County. This premium book details essential information for exhibiting. This is your opportunity to showcase your talents, hobbies and livelihoods in a friendly and sometimes competitive atmosphere. But even if you don’t exhibit, your fairboard welcomes you to participate in the fellowship, fun and satisfac-tion that comes with these Labor Day Weekend events and activities.

Fritz Coon, President.

FFA POLICY STATEMENT ON LIVESTOCK COMPETITIONS

The National FFA organization believes that livestock exhibition and judging competitions offer significant opportuni-ties for the personal, social and career growth of its members. Participation in all competitive events requires the highest personal standards of ethics, integrity and fair play as called for in the FFA Code of Ethics. FFA members are expected to comply with the specific rules of each competition and to adhere to the National Show Ring Code of Ethics. Additionally, FFA does not condone or tolerate abuse or mistreatment of animals in any form in its activities, programs or competitions. The organization actively supports the training and education of FFA members and advisors in the proper ethical behav-ior for livestock competitions and in the application of sound humane principles of animal husbandry.

4-H POLICY STATEMENT ON LIVESTOCK COMPETITIONS

The use of illegal drugs and/or the improper use of animal health prod-ucts or foreign substances will not be tolerated in the Washington State 4-H Development Program. Extension per-sonnel, 4-H volunteers, families, youth and fair/show officials have a legal and moral obligation not to misuse these products. We have the responsibility to tell others not to use these substances, and report those who do use any illegal substance. The administration of any drug or medication that could affect an

animal’s performance resulting in an unfair advantage or the disposition of the animal is unacceptable. Addition-ally, there are federal penalties for using illegal substances in animals that are going into the nation’s food supply. LIVESTOCK FITTING & SHOWING

I have always been civic minded but not active in poli-tics. In recent years I have been involved in real estate sales in Adams County. Through this experience I have come to recognize the incompatability of regulations between city and county government. In simple terms, “the gears don’t mesh well.” My goal, if elected, will be to work with the cities and county agencies to make Adams County “builder friendly.”

Adams County is at a disadvantage when it comes to recruiting new industry. We don’t have cheap power like Grant County. It is essential that we identify our strengths and market them vigorously.

My 25 years working in the timber industry have given me the ability to administer multi-million dollar budgets and to make hard decisions required to see Adams County maintains its infrastructure within existing rev-enues.

I believe in “Term Limits” even at the county level. New ideas will bring new opportunity to the citizens of Adams County. I believe I have a great deal to offer and that is why I am running for County Commissioner District #1.

DETERMINATIONYouth – The spark that starts the wheels turning in a progres-

sive livestock market. The determination evident in these young people is a fi tting testimony to the guidance and counseling of the 4-H Clubs across Washington . . . Determination yields rewards. Dedication develops the kind of youth that will shape the Livestock Industry of tomorrow.

Our 2012 Market Livestock Auction will feature outstanding livestock, the object of a strict scientifi c program of Growth and Quality. Your participation in this sale is the prime move that keeps the vital machinery of these young people in full gear.

TWO WAYS TO PARTICIPATE

1) By all means, if you can, attend the sale in person. The excite-ment of the event and the drama of the auctioneer’s cry combine to create an unforgettable scene. Auction committeemen and ring men will be on hand to assist.

2) If you, your fi rm or organization, cannot attend the sale but wish to participate, you can do so by proxy. Simply contact the sale committee secretary, Dana Telecky, 659-4212. We’ll do the rest.

THREE WAYS TO BUY

LIVE ANIMALBuyers may arrange for delivery of their purchases on the hoof.

Live animals will be released to new owners Sunday, Sept. 4, 2011, after 5:00 p.m.

CUSTOM PROCESSINGThe majority of buyers will prefer having their purchase pro-

cessed and delivered to their freezer locker. A nominal charge will be added for processing, and the locker will make its usual charge for cutting and wrapping.

TURNAny buyer may consign his purchase back to the Auction Com-

mittee for resale at the established commercial market price for sale day. The committee handles all details and the buyer pays only the difference between his bid and this market price.

MODEL KITS

Dear fellow Adams County Residents,

For the first time in 24 years, we will be electing a new Superior Court Judge. This office shoulders great responsibility and serves a most critical role in our justice system. An effective justice system, based upon the principles of integrity and fairness, is a cornerstone of infrastructure necessary for our communities to remain stable, safe and able to grow. A judge must possess qualities and set standards beyond the role of attorney and advocate; including, integrity and character, mild temperament, legal knowledge, work ethic, respect for the limited role of the judiciary, and connection with local concerns and community values.

I have dedicated my career to serving and working to improve our justice system here in Adams County. I have had the privilege of serving as your elected Prosecuting Attorney for nearly the past 10 years. During this time I have gained a wealth of legal experience appropriate to the Superior Court Bench. I have worked cooperatively with numerous community leaders and have a demonstrated record as a public official. I present to you as a candidate who is well qualified, possesses the qualities appropriate to the bench, who is committed to maintaining the standards the bench must set, and is best situated to promote long-term stability of our justice system.

This election is critical to the future of our county. I respectfully ask for your support and your vote in the upcoming primary election.

Sincerely and Respectfully,Randy Flyckt

Vote for a stable and effective justice system for the futureBased on the principles of integrity and fairness
