00:04:55.150 - 00:05:10.210

put rides into a sea world. We have six rides in the San Antonio, Texas. That's great. You know, this grand wheel really looks inviting. Linda. Well, this grand wheel is one of the largest portable wheels of its kind, and I think we ought to take a

00:05:10.220 - 00:05:23.490

ride up in it about 130 feet up and take a look at the whole midway. Oh, that's terrific. Well, what do you say? Come on with us. You know there's Sonoma County Fair is very, very pleased to have the rate. Comic shows tell us some of

00:05:23.490 - 00:05:38.350

the reasons that the rate comic shows or so upstanding Well, we're very pleased to be here. One of the reasons were so well liked, of course, is the pretty midway that we put on. It's a very clean midway, a very attractive midway, and we have one

00:05:38.350 - 00:05:54.570

of the very best safety records of any carnival around that is That's really marvelous, and I remember years past when we had carnivals here and those kinds over silly were seriously not very well kept, and I didn't always feel they were entirely safe. But this show

00:05:54.570 - 00:06:13.590

has got a terrific reputation. Well, we've won several of very prestigious awards for our safety record. We are very conscious about the safety. We have a lot of high and very thrilling rides. So it's It's very, very important that our people know all about safety and

00:06:13.590 - 00:06:28.660

assembling these rides, and we worked very hard at keeping a good safety record. You know, another nice thing I've noticed in being around your carnival for a few days. Your people are very courteous, People are very nice, and this really is a refreshing change from carnivals

00:06:28.660 - 00:06:41.790

I visited in the past. We have a lot of really nice people that work for us kids that come on grown ups as well that come on every year with us and we have the same ones come back year after year. It's one big happy family.

00:06:42.280 - 00:06:57.540

This is great and you know this is a big circus, and I understand you have more than one unit We sure do. We have two units. This is our yellow unit. And with this yellow unit, we play the Sonoma County Fair. We combine both of our

00:06:57.540 - 00:07:12.580

units to play the L A County fair, which is the largest county fair in the country. We play the Arizona State Fair in the VAT estate Fair, Idaho State Fair. And then we do a lot of still dates in California all summer long. And the Sonoma

00:07:12.580 - 00:07:25.680

County Fair is really pleased to have a mechanic chose. I have heard every fair director, incidentally, say at one time or another. What a blessing. We got those folks because the decline double now is one of the things we're proudest of. While the people at the

00:10:19.540 - 00:10:31.560

doing it about six years for about six years. And I can tell you one thing. Since she began doing this job, the entertainment has gotten better. Better and the nice part about it, Jane is you have a tremendous amount of free entertainment. Here we do. We

00:10:31.560 - 00:10:42.470

like to say that you can come through the gate, and as soon as you're into the gate, you should be entertained all day long without ever having to spend another penny. And we think that's true. We've got four free stages on the grounds, with constant entertainment

00:10:42.470 - 00:10:56.100

starting at noon and going until 10 o'clock at night. There's always something for everybody. Well, ladies and gentlemen, you heard it right here from the entertainment coordinator herself. Jane Angle, you heard about the entertainment is going to be at the fair of the second week. Remember,

00:10:56.100 - 00:11:07.490

the fair is a terrific bargain. You pay $4 when you come in. You could spend the entire day fare Gates open at 10 until 10 tonight. But the carnival goes on until midnight. You could see the flower show. You should be the horse races. You can

00:11:07.490 - 00:11:19.570

see all this fabulous entertainment and the only cost involved in any of those things. It's cost coming through the gate. You could also bring your own food to have a picnic company founders go or try food from many different lands to pressure. It's really a wonderful,

00:11:19.570 - 00:11:35.130

fair hope. You come out and see it during the second week and now let's look at some of the other interesting factors going on. It is 1989 Sonoma County Fair. Hi. We're here in the midway where the Rake Amick shows air all around us with a

00:11:35.130 - 00:11:50.740

00:12:36.750 - 00:12:49.500

1988 were standing with a gentleman that you may not see very often, but you certainly hear a great deal from this is Dick Ryland. He's our Sonoma County fair track announcer and decades really nice to have you back winners in your sixties. In be my six

00:12:49.500 - 00:12:59.090

season, you're rich. It is nice to come back and you talk about a nice paddock. This is the best around the fair circuit. Believe me, it is. It's certainly one of the most attractive I've ever seen. It sort of looks like it belongs in one of

00:12:59.090 - 00:13:08.260

the major tracks. Doesn't well, you see a lot of people that like to watch horses, and it's important for the fans. And I watched on the roof and I see a just a multitude of people coming here watching horses. I don't know a lot of what

00:13:08.260 - 00:13:18.080

they look for, but they like to be done and seeing the action, and that's they paid to get in. That's what we should do. Yeah, uh, generally, Dick Riley is going to be a guest on the racing seminar one day, and he will tell you a

00:13:18.080 - 00:13:27.390

great deal about what he does. We don't have time for him to tell you all the things he does today, but you do announce the races and you have a unique way of doing that. You kind of bored yourself up in there, don't you? Well, I

00:13:27.390 - 00:13:37.130

do. You right up with the public. And I love the people, but you have to have concentration a little bit. So I put some newspapers around the windows and a couple of lady said, We don't mind if you do that. What would you change him about

00:13:37.130 - 00:13:50.780

every five or six days? So we know what's going on because we read them from out there. Uh, you've been announcing racing. You also have another background in the race that you've been a jockey gauge. And I believe in other things too. I've done just about

00:13:50.780 - 00:14:01.570

everything from the parking lot that ushering in. I was the jocks Asian did some voiceover for some movies, and I do the TV and radio down it Santa need in Hollywood. And I love to come to the fair, especially this So this is really nice. How

00:14:01.570 - 00:14:12.760

do you go about broadcasting a raise your up there? How do you identify the horses? And how do you make those wonderful calls? Because you're an excellent announced. I believe me. Well, thank you. I I use Crayolas personally of, in other words, that the soaks or

00:14:12.760 - 00:14:24.190

blue I'll use a blue Kriel on my program. But I know most of the colors and therefore I haven't memorized for they come on the track But it's all memory work in its concentration. That's what it is. Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for being with us.

00:14:24.190 - 00:14:38.640

We were talking with Dick Riley, our track announcer and a very excellent one. And now let's go see some other beautiful 1989 Sonoma County Fair. Hi. We're here in the southern end of the fairgrounds. Right behind us is barbs, Better buns and I'm standing with barber

00:14:38.640 - 00:14:51.320

self high bar. Hi. How you doing this morning? Pretty good. Why don't you give us a little history about how barbs better buns got started? Oh, Lord, it's been a lot of years on the road, about 14 now, to be exact. But about five years ago,

00:14:51.320 - 00:15:06.780

I built this barbs better bun stand and it's been really a fantastic it. We've had great results with their homemade bun for our Polish sausage and chips sandwiches. We've also make our homemade donuts here for the horse people, which is really hit. They just love that.

00:15:07.040 - 00:15:21.890

Well, you're in a sort of an unusual location for the fairgrounds. Nice. Yet unusual. Do you like being in this particular location? Definitely. We've had the support of the horse people for the last five years now. And even though we're really not, like a part of

00:15:21.890 - 00:15:34.320

the fare being not on the main midway, but being down here and they love us, we love them. And I love it. So I guess that's kind of the answer to our location is wonderful. I understand you do quite a few fares. This is how many

00:15:34.320 - 00:15:48.120

years it's Noma County Fair. Have you been here? Like I said, this stand is five years old. So we've been here five years with this Ever since it was brand new. I've been out on the fair circuit about well, 14 years, but eight years in California,

00:15:48.120 - 00:16:02.800

on the California route. And then I also do Arizona. So I have the to routes 67 months over there and five months in California. Wonderful. Well, if you get a chance, stop by the southern end of the fairgrounds and visit barbs better buns behind us is

00:16:02.800 - 00:16:19.670

the racetrack. It's quite a nice view. Come out and see it. You know, affair has many, many things to recommend it. We tell you about a lot of them, such as the exhibits, the Flower Show, the horse racing, the destruction Derby, the rodeo, It almost things.

00:16:19.680 - 00:16:34.760

But one of the most important thing at any Sonoma County fair is the livestock and the youngsters ff a in the foreign. The two gentlemen sitting with me have long been champions of both before Agent ff A on the Fed board. They're both members of Moma

00:16:34.760 - 00:16:48.590

County Fair Board of directors. On the right of your screen is Dr Fred Grow vermin. And on the left, the screen is Glenn Klein. And these two gentlemen have Dunmore, in my opinion, to benefit the four H youngsters in the FF a youngster's than any other

00:16:48.590 - 00:17:01.550

two men that have ever served on the bare boards. Glen, uh, what do you think? This 1989 edition? I think rich, This is probably going to be our best one ever. We still have a great number of Children there in the back. It's really pleasing. I

00:17:01.550 - 00:17:13.070

know for both Fred and I to see that the agricultural events just keep getting bigger and better. Well, you know the night. The nice thing about it is the kids are still coming out. I don't think there's quite as many as there were a few years

00:17:13.070 - 00:17:26.590

ago, but it's great, isn't it? Well, it certainly is great, and it's correct. We've dropped a little bit in the numbers, but the Sonoma County is changing and we're becoming more of a metropolitan area. But we still have a lot of kids that are in these

00:17:26.590 - 00:17:42.230

good projects. Dr. Fred, how are you? The last time we had friend on here, we also had a championship cow and it kept answering. This ever started. It did the job for us. Anything rabbits won't talk. Well, that's pretty good, I think. Dr. Government. Fred, you've

00:17:42.230 - 00:17:57.910

been on the board for many, many years. It's always Glenn. Um, what do you think of the United edition of the 1989 edition? I think we've got an excellent fair coming up. It's It's very nice. Uh, the animals are in some areas, like in the hogs,

00:17:57.910 - 00:18:12.550

where we're up in the hog barn this year, particularly even in the open division is is full. Our beef cattle show. We've got, Ah, big split show this year, and I think people have a have a great opportunity to see. A lot of prize winning animals

00:18:12.930 - 00:18:26.790

went up. There are two major days in which they're auctions. What's the one of the two days, or what's the 1st 1 of the 1st 1 will be this Wednesday. Rich will do. Ah, rabbits first and then we're going to run through probably about 600 lambs.

00:18:27.120 - 00:18:41.160

And then a week from Friday will dio all these hogs like Dr Fred says, we're way up on hogs and then we're going to do some poultry and we'll end up with between 80 and 100 beef into you two gentlemen, actually begin your efforts towards making

00:18:41.630 - 00:18:56.270

this a successful fair in regard to the getting youngsters to enter their animals. I really hate to say it, but I I start in January, and I started my calls because a lot of people have budgets they want to put together, and so it really runs,

00:18:56.900 - 00:19:08.580

I'd really say all year long I talk about the auction I was just going to say to A friend once told me that he starts the day after this. There is Yeah, that's right. We start the day after it ends because there's some folks that say,

00:19:08.900 - 00:19:20.850

You know, this year I can't I can't buy but get a hold of the next year And that's when we started working on him. OK, well, ladies and gentlemen, we've been talking to two gentlemen who are very much responsible for F F A and four each

00:19:20.850 - 00:19:35.000

00:20:35.440 - 00:20:53.650

animal showmanship, all the things that go into animal competition out here. And I know you're familiar with that from your younger years. But what else is involved in premium and exhibits out here? Well, it involves anything that's, Ah, competitive, anything that's open for the competition right

00:20:53.660 - 00:21:08.750

00:21:23.660 - 00:21:37.000

the ceramics, the hydra count. You've got all the way to the back with the woodworking. There's some beautiful exhibits back there from people that have worked all year on them. And I encourage everybody to go in there and just take a look for themselves and see

the EEC craft building is where all of the junior exhibits are. We've got feature booths with the exhibitors. They're fine arts. They're painting all of their sewing that they've done throughout the year. All of that's an E C craft. But you know, people are coming to

00:21:50.940 - 00:22:03.960

this wonderful fair and see some of the things we're talking talking about in the two weeks of affair May think Well, you know, I do this or that I might be interested in showing some of my stuff at the fair or some of my work. Rather

00:22:03.970 - 00:22:16.350

my stuff, Uh, how would they go about it? What would they do? OK, well, unfortunately for this year, it's too late. We've already received our entries, and they've been judged in their in place and on exhibit. However, in each of the exhibit buildings, we've got an

00:22:16.350 - 00:22:29.240

information booth, and right there we'll have a little spot. If says, if you're interested in learning more about our fair being an exhibitor, sign in. So with each of our buildings, we've got monitors there that can answer any specific questions. We'd also like to encourage people

that all that information that's in the exhibitors guidebook is available, and we're right by the phones, ready to answer people's questions and send them all the forms they need. Well, you can see ladies and gentlemen, the exhibits and the animal competition is an integral part of

00:22:54.810 - 00:23:10.600

the fare and, perhaps, in many people's minds, the most important part of any county fair. I've been talking with Sheila Quince, the entry, an exhibit supervisor, entry and exhibit supervisor, and she told me that under time. But Sheila works very, very hard all year round, and

if you're interested, you contact her office next year, and maybe we'll be looking one of your entries in the family. Now back to some other important part of this 1989 Sonoma County Fair. I'm standing here from the tote board at the racing track at the Sonoma

00:23:26.210 - 00:23:39.490

County Fairgrounds, where each day avid fairgoers are either lucky or unlucky placing their bets. How do you go about placing your bet? Do you bet on the color of the horse or the jockeys? Last name. Join rich McGlinchey each day at the fair, a 10 30

00:23:39.490 - 00:23:53.300

for the How Tubes of horse racing. Let's take a peek Now what goes on at his seminars? The I think one of the things that we want to explain to everybody who's at the seminar, and I think it's very important that you know, is how to

00:23:53.300 - 00:24:06.610

read erasing program. First of all, you come to the fair, you pay your money at the gate, come in to watch the races by a reserve seats. If you've never been to the races, and it's surprising the number of people that appear here, you have never

00:24:06.610 - 00:24:21.570

been to listen. And if you've never been to the races, you may not know how to read arresting program or what it means. One thing that's extremely important is that you use the number on the racing program. Many people will read the press Democrat. They'll read

00:24:21.580 - 00:24:36.530

the Chronicle, and in there they will see the handicapped by Larry. Students were by the other handicappers, and they will have a number on the horse now that sometimes if it's a late addition of paper will be the actual post position number. Not always the 11

00:24:36.530 - 00:24:50.410

You can be certain that you're betting on the horse you want to bet on is picking the horse and then using the number that's on the side of racing program. One of the things I think that most people are not familiar with unless you're an experienced

00:24:50.410 - 00:25:05.550

horse player, is the racing program and what each section of it means Hi. I'm here with Richard Foul, A journeyman jockey. Hi, Richard. How you doing this morning? Pretty good. Tell us what a journeymen jockey means. Well, when your journey mean, that means you're not apprenticed
