Our local Committee members do not judge at our Fair. The Society hires and pays for qualified and impartial judges. The chairpersons and committee members listed for each section are all volunteers who ensure that the judge sees all entries in each class, they fill in the appropriate paperwork, attach prize ribbons/stickers and display the entries for our Fair visitors.
