Qualifier Show- Friday Night

The Potter County Fairboard will allow exhibitors to take their animals over to the fairgrounds on Friday night. It is the families responsibility to bring bedding and to make sure the stalls are completely clean. Families also need to be responsible for their own garbage and take it home with them. The wash racks may or may not be on, so bathe your animals before you go over. Show starts promptly at 9AM on Saturday! See you there!
