00:06:57.380 - 00:07:09.610

00:07:09.610 - 00:07:23.470

00:07:23.470 - 00:07:36.900

year. And, uh, again, it is too late for this year. But we do have the exhibitor guidebooks always available. The first part of May. You know, we needed them to give us a call, and we love to tell him all about how to enter your many,

00:07:36.900 - 00:07:50.370

many pairs to come. So be sure ticket what she says to heart. Perhaps next year you want to enter some of the things. This is the 53rd annual general kind of bears probably many of you know it. It was restored in 1936 and had come along

00:07:50.370 - 00:08:06.850

successfully ever since. Danny, let's go over and talk for a minute. Have you talk about the theme of this year's there and some of the theme related events? Okay, well, our theme this year is Midsummer Magic, and we're combining the idea of the rabbit and magic,

00:08:07.430 - 00:08:18.960

and you will be able tow Well, what I always tell people has Kicker rocking out will come a magician, and it's true. They're going to be magicians everywhere you turn at the fair, all kinds we'll have. Magicians working with little kids will have all the way

00:08:18.960 - 00:08:32.160

up to We have a magician. Rick Thomas is magical moments. They'll be there all the first week, and they have two grand illusions that have been used by no one but Dr David Copperfield. Yet they have the rights to them for the next year, so we'll

00:08:32.160 - 00:08:47.140

be able to see those in the Revue Theatre. And then we're gonna be doing some rabbit related events. We'll have animal imitation contests where we'll ask people to imitate rabbits, and it's gonna be interesting because rabbits don't make a lot of noise. Good. Looking forward to

00:08:47.140 - 00:09:01.300

that, Um, we're also going to be having, um a lot of imagination. Certainly. I mean, you see a lot of that. We're gonna be having a junior Magicians contest The first Wednesday we're inviting kids 13 and under to come in. They have to do three magic

00:09:01.300 - 00:09:14.950

tricks and first prizes, $100. So we're hoping that all the junior magicians will come out and join us for that and just a little bit of everything. You will see us trying to draw the rabbit into all kinds of things are costume parade and, well, the

00:09:14.960 - 00:09:29.820

fair is noted for two or three things. Don't talk about two particular. The entertainment has always tremendous. The flower shows always diminish. What kind entertainers have you got this year? We have just an incredible lineup. I think that the only way people are gonna be able

00:09:29.820 - 00:09:41.400

to sort out what's happening in the fair is just to come and sit there with the schedule because there's no way you could keep it all in your head. We have an incredible lineup of free entertainment. We only have three page shows this year. and one

00:09:41.400 - 00:09:54.270

of those is a regular entertainer. Johnny Cash is a paid show, and we're charging four and $6 for tickets. And that's August, Tuesday, August 1st. And the reason we're charging for that is because most people want a guaranteed seat. So that way you get your ticket

00:09:54.270 - 00:10:05.750

ahead of time. You know where you're going to sit. Well, then, the only other two things that we charge for the destruction Derby, which is the last Sunday, August 6th in the Rodeo, which is the 28th and 29th Friday and Saturday nights. Everything else is free

00:10:05.840 - 00:10:23.210

and we've got Tower of Power asleep at the wheel. Gary Pocket got an oldie show with Little Anthony Blues Festival with John Lee Hooker Uh, Zazu Pitts Memorial Orchestra Like another language. Oh, I know. L see. What we're hoping is that everybody will recognize one. We

00:10:23.210 - 00:10:38.790

do. We're not expecting, you know, all those people. But surely there was one in there that you, uh, what's the thing with this year's theme of flower shows? Gardens of enchantment. And it is truly spectacular. There's three. It's unbelievable. There's a 300 foot long dragon in

00:10:38.790 - 00:10:52.450

there and we're not going to tell you anymore. You're just going to have to come see Khaki defray has been with a pair of Italy. That third year leave for her 1st 2 years were spectacular, I'm sure. Very similar. I think that it's gonna be something

00:10:52.450 - 00:11:06.480

people are talking about. Okay, Uh, bringing a family to the fair. Jane can you can be expensive now, what are some of the ways people could cost? Well, you know the fair. We feel like it's really important that everybody be able to come to the fair

00:11:06.490 - 00:11:18.160

because it is a county fair and it's there for all of us. But you do have to charge in orderto everything that I do the entertainment, the special events we don't charge for. So that price at the gate goes to cover all those costs. But we

00:11:18.160 - 00:11:28.050

do want to make it easier for people who may have a large family or it's a little difficult to get it all together. So we have a couple of different ways. First of all, we have to half price days. Those air both Monday's the 25th and

00:11:28.050 - 00:11:44.900

the 30th 31st. Yeah, on that adult admission is only $2 half price. Those states Ah, Senior Citizens Day the first Wednesday the 26th of July is free for all seniors, and then both Thursday's The 27th and thes second of August are free for kids 13 and

00:11:44.900 - 00:11:56.220

under, and so that's one way you can save on a mission. Then, of course, the carnival is a major expense for people who go to the carnival. There's no way around that. So there are some ways that the carnival has put together to make it a

00:11:56.230 - 00:12:10.190

little cheaper. To bring a gang to the carnival, we have to pay one price days both Tuesday afternoons. You can come and pay $10 ride many rides as you can stomach. You could just go crazy and then both Thursdays on kids days. We're going back to

00:12:10.190 - 00:12:23.010

tradition here. I know that as long as I can remember on Kids Day you came and all rides will want to bond less. So we're gonna be going back to that this year. That is great for families to bring your Children after you say they love

00:12:23.010 - 00:12:35.710

the carnival and the new cardinal you have now of the camera shows is really splendid. It's a clean, beautiful carnival. It's wonderful. This is their third year, and they're they're carnival is just marvelous. In fact, we get a lot of comments from people, particularly in the

00:12:35.710 - 00:12:49.460

kiddy carnival, with people who think that the Carnival employees work for us. And they say, You know, they come up and they comment about how nice they are, how clean they are. Uh, what are some of the special activities planned for Children? For Jane, this important

00:12:49.460 - 00:13:01.760

to the brake? Well, we believe that you ought to be able to come to the fair and get through the gate and be entertained all day long. And this year you could be entertained for several days within the space of one day. So there's so much

00:13:01.760 - 00:13:15.580

going on. We have, ah, whole schedule of theme days for little kids for kids, probably 10 and under in the kids area. One day we dio Christmas in July, where we try to hit all the kid's favorite holidays, you know, So we do Halloween. We do

00:13:15.580 - 00:13:27.710

Christmas. We dio circus day where we have art projects and we have people come in on our circus day we're gonna have someone come in and teach the kids circus skills. How to walk on a tight rope. In that cummings, we have a lot of those.

00:13:27.950 - 00:13:40.420

We have one special event this year. That is, I assume kids will enjoy it, but we're hoping everyone will come. We're gonna be doing a day at the beach, and we have never tried anything quite this scale before. On Thursday, July 27th we're going to turn

00:13:40.420 - 00:13:53.910

the ring with theatre into a beach. So we're gonna truck in a couple of tons of sand and put up some palm trees. And I would have beach music and maybe a few limbo contest. So Papa Doo run run will be performing that day. Who will

00:13:53.910 - 00:14:09.110

be performing the name of the group? Richest Papa Doo. Run. Run. Oh, great. Think of them sort of his low key. Have you heard all these people? Is she talking about everyone of great to be young? Uh, let me go back to one thing with you

00:14:09.260 - 00:14:25.750

for a minute. Junior livestock. That's probably one of most important parts of affairs. And certainly people that support the fair are very much in favor of the kids examiner animals. And of course, that culminates and them selling them. And for a good price, one of the

00:14:25.750 - 00:14:46.180

auctions again. And what is involved in buying? Okay, well, just to give you a little background on it. Last year we had around 600 youngsters that exhibited around 1000 animals with 1000 different buyers out there buying them, and sales totaled over $500,000. So we are expecting

00:14:46.180 - 00:14:59.840

about the same numbers. I think they're just slightly less than last year. But that still means that we still need to get out there and get some buyers. So anybody that be interested in being a buyer and support cinema County youth can contact the fairgrounds. We've

00:14:59.850 - 00:15:14.160

got a wonderful brochure. We could mail them and answer any questions they may have on on what it takes to become a buyer. We also have a group of about 60 wonderful people in our community that support the fair in this effort. And, uh, we have

00:15:14.160 - 00:15:29.080

their names available and anybody that the interested in getting more information can call our office, and we could have one of our people out there in the community that help us here. Contact them. Uh, more, more. I don't ask me something else about it. All right.

00:15:29.090 - 00:15:45.270

We're talking about the rabbit being the future species of animal this year. Uh, what's your featuring? And when your education? Well, along with the midsummer magic in the whole rabbit thing, we're taking that rabbit and featuring it in our educational display area Where that that's located

00:15:45.270 - 00:16:00.620

on the West Lawn of Finley Hall. We take over the whole on all the way back to the cold storage box. We're going to feature all kinds of breeds of rabbits, will have educational youth demonstrations. We've kind contacted chefs throughout Sonoma County, and they'll be doing

00:16:00.820 - 00:16:20.100

demonstrations featuring rabbits in our cold storage box. We've got questions and people there to answer questions. A what kinds of information brochures available and everybody that shows up gets ah, commemorative. But in this year, it'll state I had a hair raising experience at the Cinema County

00:16:20.110 - 00:16:40.580

Fair Way Knew that was coming to listen. Describe a little bit more about what people can expect to see in the overall livestock area. The judging word that Okay, one thing that we're trying to encourage is to get more people to go ahead and walk past

00:16:40.580 - 00:16:52.500

those gates and into the barn area. When you immediately get to that area, we've got Uncle Sam's farm, which we feature baby farm animals for people really get up close and maybe get in there and pet, but to get up close and see the baby farm

00:16:52.500 - 00:17:07.510

animals. Once you go into the livestock area, of course, we'll have our draft horses on display again. We're going to be having draft horse hay wagon rides throughout the livestock area. We also have a free tram ride that takes people from the back Aston Gate all

00:17:07.510 - 00:17:22.630

the way down to Uncle Sam's farming on back. So it's a nice tour of the livestock area in that in that area we have our cold storage box back there. We have butchers from throughout Sonoma County that will be doing meat cutting demonstrations. There's all the

00:17:22.630 - 00:17:36.080

show rings activities going on there almost constantly. Throughout each day. We invite people to come on back, stop it, one of the show rings and listen to the judge commentate on the various placings air going on and maybe learn a little bit when they're back there.

00:17:36.090 - 00:17:51.390

Yeah, but the animals, how to show them without judging is done. Yes, friend. Last year you had a couch potato, and it did make national news and people that, but what have you got to replace the couch potato this year? Well, we've decided to look at

00:17:51.390 - 00:18:06.670

the other side of life this year where you're gonna have a fitness buff. We're gonna be paying somebody $1000. Her name is Laurie Ahern, and she is going to spend 14 days of the fair from noon until 10 o'clock every night being physically fit. So she'll

00:18:06.670 - 00:18:20.430

be in Finley Hall and you're all invited to stop by and say hello. She's going to be there, working out. Learning about all kinds of aspects of the whole fitness game will have health professionals from all over Sonoma County coming different ones every day to talk

00:18:20.430 - 00:18:31.140

to all of us. So those of us who have not got what it takes to actually get out there and do the research ourselves like me can just stop by feeling all every day and ask a few questions. So we're looking for that and you have

00:18:31.140 - 00:18:46.140

to watch out when you're walking around fairgrounds this year because Lori is going to dart out of family holic Asian Aly and gather people up for a jog around the fairgrounds. So good, we're counting on you to join us. Ladies and gentlemen, there is no mechanic.

00:18:46.150 - 00:19:03.170

Failure is probably one of the finest entertainment bargains in Northern California to $4 fee for adults. And I think it's $1.1 dollar for from from 7 to 12. Yeah, it is probably said the hardest bargain in Northern California country. The flower show. You can see the

00:19:03.180 - 00:19:21.520

midway, see all of the exhibits. You can see the animal competition. You can see the products in the major race prevention of all kind of 200 I think in his business products could go to the horse racing FCD Rodeo. It is really a magnificent fair, so

00:19:21.530 - 00:19:34.200

we're gonna be back in just a moment talking more about it. But I hope you'll market down in July 24th through August 6. Don't forget it. And if you think there's no entertainment out there, that's what I call entertainment. That something for each day of the

00:19:34.210 - 00:19:48.430

fair that each one of these segments tell you what's gonna be there. And Jane mentioned earlier. Tower of Power, Asleep at the Wheel, Ray Camacho Band Papa Doo Run Run Happened I Love That Tim were groups as a pitch memorial work. Johnny Cash, Steve Cesc In

00:19:48.430 - 00:20:02.460

and Friends Gary Pocket, Kmg Oldies William and Re An Instruction Derby. That's just some of the entertainment. All right, we're gonna pause right here for a moment. We've been talking with Jane Indo. We're talking with the liquids. A few moments were gonna have gin more than

00:20:02.470 - 00:20:16.750

general managers, County Fair and Jack Ender President is known kind of fair board. Join us. Talk a little bit more about the 1989 fair back in just a moment. There are hundreds of good reasons to protect our farm lands, and you can eat the mall chicken

00:20:16.750 - 00:20:33.140

and eggs, honey and land. We got strawberries, raspberries, jellies, jams, lettuce and chard, mushrooms, peas, radishes, carrots, milk and cheese. There's lemons, apples, avocados and oranges, asparagus and broccoli, and nothing rhymes with orange is farmlands don't have a political lobby, and farmers don't work hard for

00:20:33.140 - 00:20:48.830

a hobby. So please enjoy our local bounty and God bless Sonoma County. Protect the heart and soul of the noble county. Ask your grocer for local for product. Welcome back to this edition of Cinema Continetti. You know, this is a very special program. Every year, just

00:20:48.840 - 00:20:59.490

before the fair, we have some of the people from this noble county fair. Come on out. Join us. A few moments ago, we talked to Sheila Quinson, Jane Indo. They told us about some of the terrific entertainment to scheduled for the fair and also some of

00:20:59.490 - 00:21:17.490

the marvelous exhibits and premium judging that takes place out there. We're gonna talk to other gentleman on the left Your screen. Jack Edinger, the president of the Sonoma County Fair Board. Hijack, Hijack that Jim on this side, Jim or the manager of the Snowmen County Fair.

00:21:18.100 - 00:21:35.470

We talked to the other persons. The two women that were with us earlier about the affair, the entertainment we talked about the the exhibits, the livestock exhibitions. First of all, let's talk a little bit about how old is coming to be, Uh, how many directors served

00:21:35.470 - 00:21:52.960

with you on a fair board? Currently, there are 16 directors on the fair board. Up until a couple of years ago. Each supervisorial district, it's supervisor appointed for directors. And, uh, since that time there will be an attrition of members of the board, down to a

00:21:52.960 - 00:22:10.990

total of 15 3 Coming from each district would be 15 members. From knowing that quite a few committees that those people worked you all double up. Yes, the whole operation's a fair board is a committee structure. Certainly. Uh, the board's primary purpose, of course, is to

00:22:10.990 - 00:22:29.780

set policy, and our staff is a very good job in implementing that. But there is a heavy committee structure committees of various aspects of the fair. The policies emanate, and our started with the committees and go through the board. That's a very busy type of, ah,

00:22:29.790 - 00:22:45.030

oven organization in that it does operate in a committee structure. Okay, I think you kind of touched on this moment ago. But how does one actually become a member of the family? Well, you were actually appointed by the supervisor. The way that you might wish to

00:22:45.030 - 00:22:59.550

if you were interested in doing that, would be to contact your supervisor and let that individual know of your interest in and becoming a ball qualifications and so forth and see if there's an opening. They are appointed by the and they serve at the pleasure of

00:22:59.560 - 00:23:13.920

the supervisor. I know that you have doesn't different committees over the flower show in agriculture and racing and publicity and budget like I can't remember what we're going to try to. But how often does the fair board meet these people? Committees meet all during the month

00:23:13.920 - 00:23:28.140

or not? Yes, the Fair Board meets monthly, and each committee for the most part, meets on a monthly basis. Some of the quiet times have some of the committees may not meet on a monthly basis. For the most part, they do. How about the fair board

00:23:28.140 - 00:23:43.760

president that you this year? Is that really a ceremonial poster? You you do a little, well, rich. I think that's probably the easiest job things time up until this. In fact, this has probably been the quietest year for me. 11 years that I've been on the

00:23:43.760 - 00:24:02.680

board way are we are not voting members of each of the any of the committees. We do participate as president, participated the committee activities and functions and sit in on the meat on the meetings, but for the most part simply, um, that administrative type of ah

00:24:02.800 - 00:24:21.300

position with regard to the fair board, Jack. But profession, you're a banker. It's a fair solvent. How is the fare As far as its operation in general, I'm very pleased to say to you and to the people of some of county that the county fair is

00:24:21.300 - 00:24:42.280

a solvent organization and it is profitable. We obviously keep our fingers crossed with respect to each cup. Coming fair doesn't reign problem like that, but so we're anticipating a another very good year financially. How does the future look forward? Affair in general, your the future of

00:24:42.280 - 00:25:00.160

the stomach County Fair is solid. We do face problems such as funds to make necessary capital improvements at the fair. And the fairgrounds is a great deal of of needs out there that one day we'll have to be addressed and they are being currently addressed with

00:25:00.160 - 00:25:17.300

the master planning effort to try to structure those needs into a fiscal, uh, program that will provide those needs to be met. I think, Jack, from what I hear from everyone out there, you're doing a splendid job. Thank you. Say it may be ceremony. A little

00:25:17.300 - 00:25:34.220

thinking Here's at all. It's pulling everybody together, getting all the information from all the committees and acting thereafter. Hello? You're here. Uh, Jim, let's talk to you a little bit about the racing picture. Well, first of all this talk about how big is the paragraph about?

00:25:34.980 - 00:25:55.410

Well, the total acreage out there is about 180 acres. Probably half of that is parking lot. Yeah, it's an awful lot of buildings to stop to. There are about 33 buildings about her. You know, I three or four major buildings exhibit buildings in the grandstand, Of

00:25:55.420 - 00:26:12.080

course. Uh, a number of storage buildings so far. AM I don't know how many horse stalls we want to get on the horse barns, and we've the whole 180 acres. Probably half of that is, is fairgrounds proper? Most of that is covered by buildings. They're not

00:26:12.090 - 00:26:26.470

a lot of buildings out there that need to be maintained. Take a terrible abuse all year. It is a chore. Kick them all. Of course, the track itself takes up a great deal of that. 8 10 going the infield. Jim, you've been involved with racing. I

00:26:26.470 - 00:26:42.760

know it is a whole horse owner in the past and that sort of thing And no racing's close to your heart affairs. A combination of live and simulcast horse racing in the summer. What is the schedule? Uh, well, the simulcast joined now is on right up

00:26:42.760 - 00:26:57.700

into our fair starts. And then after, right, we have simulcast racing out there all year long. Oh, you're all year accepted of warfare with exceptional fair. Usually we have both a day and a night. Me going So it's It's five days a week, all year long,

00:26:57.830 - 00:27:15.290

usually with a program in the day and then another one at night. We have a new jockey club to go. Yeah, improved simulcast wagering facility. Actually, we're going to build an entirely new building in the very near future. The architects already working on that's gonna be

00:27:15.290 - 00:27:32.840

constructed out. And the Brookwood parking lot. Oh, I see. Is that Yeah, and that'll be four simulcasting altogether. Just simulcast. Okay, What kind of horses race out, Jim? Well, affairs air a little bit unique. Uh, that is different from the major's going getting Bay Meadows in

00:27:32.840 - 00:27:53.270

that all of the fares include the what they call the emerging breeds of racehorses that is 1/4 horses. Apple looses Arabians. In addition to the thoroughbreds, we have 13 thoroughbred races a day and then four of those mixed breed races each day that we don't have

00:27:53.270 - 00:28:13.230

rates the opening day from our very Monday because we're setting up the racing and all but racing starts the next day. The meat goes from fair to fair, beginning with the stock unfair ended June and each of the fares runs continuously once they open up. It

00:28:13.240 - 00:28:26.880

does take some time to get all those people on all the equipment. Manpower move from fair to fair. And so we don't run that very first Monday of the fair. But then beginning on Tuesday, the second day of the fair, continuously to the last Sunday I

00:28:26.880 - 00:28:51.500

know you've got 13 racing days, 13 races each day for major handicaps. I know we have out of the fair anything else. New several things. Number one, we, uh, are reinstituting are racing seminar, which we will conduct each morning of the race meet. We have a

00:28:51.510 - 00:29:11.550

guest commentator who is taking care of that for us. A world famous television personality and horse racing authority. Rich McGlinchey will be there. Teoh, get this to do two things, actually, Uh, number one to introduce people who may not be for May with the racing form

00:29:11.550 - 00:29:28.950

in the program and how to read the tote board. That is beginner beginning horseplayers to give them some information just to get him started on that, uh, and secondly, to bring even for the experienced horse player. Introduce them to some of the the other people that

00:29:29.460 - 00:29:45.190

from the back stretch the jockeys, the trainers, the vets that each day that he will have a guest on you will have a guest on which should be of interest not only to the beginning horse player, but also the more experienced people that do know how

00:29:45.190 - 00:30:00.140

to raise. Important. So far, I'm getting a desperation signal. We're running over. Thank you, Jim. Jim, More general managers. Okay. There, Jack and your president that we're gonna hear board. We talked with Sheila Jane earlier. Now we're gonna have to depart. Be sure to come in
