The 1990 Jack County
Youth Fair begins Thursday,
March 8. Our young people
have invested long hours,
hard work, and a consider-
able amount of their money
in these projects. The Jack
County Youth Fair Associa-
tion once again requests
your generous support for
this years sale. Your atten-
dance and participation in
the Premium Sale at 9:30
A.M. Saturday, March 10,
1990 will be a most reward-
ing and enjoyable experi-
ence.
You may have been re-
cently contacted or be consid-
ering giving your financial
support to these 4-H, FHA
and FFA students. For those
persons not actively involved
in the Fair the process may
seem complicated. Luckily,
for our hard working youth,
it is easy to donate your tax
deductible financial support.
Last years sale grossed
$59,938 for the area youth.
A purchase premium is
paid to the students who
have animals in the pre-
mium sale. Basically, there
are two ways Buyers may
contribute to the premium
S£tlc
First, is the ADD-ON
PREMIUM. This is your set
amount of pledge/donation
dollars "added-on" to the sale
of the animal. This may be
done prior to, during, or even
after the sale. All the Sales
Committee needs is the
Exhibitor's name and the
amount of your pledge.
Numerous Fair Association
volunteers will be available
at the sale to assist Buyers.
Buyers who do not designate
specific exhibitors may con-
tribute to the pool of funds.
Second, is the PUR-
CHASE PREMIUM. A
Buyer may pay a full pre-
mium or partial premium by
bidding on a specific animal.
(A partial premium may be
paid when several Buyers go
together to bid on an ani-
mal). The Buyer may choose For several years now the
to pay only the premium (the County Lions Club have
