Are they having the annual Dash for Cash Livestock show in December this year?
What time does show start . And are goats first?
The show starts at 10 a.m., but animals must be checked-in and entered before 9 a.m. Goats will show first.
What size jars are allowed for the canning section at the fair. I have a 4Her that is learning the art of preservation and wants to enter a couple of items at the fair.
They can be in pint or quart jars. The only stipulation is that they be sealed and in actual canning jars (Kerr, Ball, etc).
