elcome to the 63rd annual Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair. On behalf of the board of directors and fair staff I would like to extend an invitation to you to attend the 2014 fair as we celebrate “Our Roots Run Deep,” a theme that was selected to recognize the multiple generations of families here in the Klamath Basin and as a tribute to the traditions and values that this fair was built upon 63 years ago and continues to promote today.

The fair is an iconic event in rural life and is many things to many people. To those participating in events like Livestock, Arts & Crafts, Rodeo, Destruction Derby and the Mud Bogs, the fair brings much anticipation and excitement. For business owners, it’s a time to showcase their products and services. Many make new friends and reacquaint with old ones or stroll the midway and reminisce about fairs of yesteryear. Some come for the smell of corn dogs and cotton candy or for a night out with friends to enjoy a Grandstand event. This is your fair. The more you bring to it, the more you and others will get out of it. The fair staff and board strive every year to make it the best we can possibly make it.

The uniqueness of the Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair comes from the hearts and foresight of the people who have and continue to dedicate their efforts into the fair. The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair is enriched with tradition and history, all of which makes it one of the greatest county fairs on the west coast. Sixty three years ago the fair was founded and developed on the principles of being a family oriented event where the surrounding communities could gather for socializing, entertainment, education and friendly competition. Those founding principles have continued to play an integral role in the fair’s purpose throughout the past sixty three years because of the dedication of past and present fair board members, staff, volunteers, exhibitors and fair patrons like yourself.

We continue to strive to provide the public a low cost event that the whole family can enjoy with their fellow community members. The great diversity of exhibits, entertainment and food have all played an integral role in developing the fair’s tradition of providing the public an educational and entertaining family oriented event that everyone can afford to attend and enjoy!

As you walk through the gates September 4th thru 7th, I invite you, your family and friends to enjoy the many traditional events and shows that you have come to know and love as well as some new entertainment we hope you will find enjoyable. NEW to this year’s fair will be the K9 Flying Dogs, where you will get the chance to see some of the most amazing and talented dogs in the nation perform tricks and thrill the audience; The Gypsy Time Travelers, who travel all across the United States in "Florence" their Recreational Castle, Blacksmith Shop and Stage Rig. They combine fabulous storytelling with anvil accompaniment and have created an award winning Stage Show that has been called "The Best in Family EDUTAINMENT;" Skip Banks the “Balloon Man,”a show that you must see to believe. If you are walking around the fair and see a huge crowd, laughing and holding their sides, it’s a good bet Skip has set up shop inside his giant balloon and has morphed into one of his colorful characters.

The Umpqua Bank Free Music Stage is power packed with a great lineup of live music including The Chris Gardner Band, Ali Dee, the star performer of CMT’s Texas Women tv show, The Cherry Road Gang and local talent including the Nephilim Band and Moodswing. Of course, some of last year’s crowd favorites such as the FREE PONY RIDES all week for kid’s to enjoy and the Barnyard Kid’s Rodeo filled with numerous exciting events for children of all ages to enjoy will all return to the fairgrounds to energize the crowd!

The fair staff and board of directors have worked extremely hard to provide the public an enjoyable, friendly and entertaining fun filled week! I would like to thank the board of directors, office staff and maintenance staff for their continued dedication as they strive for excellence throughout the year.

As always, we hope you will express your appreciation and support to the advertisers throughout the following pages whose generosity made this program possible. I look forward to meeting and welcoming you to the 2014 Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair in our quest to keep the dream alive for future generations of fair patrons and participants as we celebrate our theme of “Our Roots Run Deep.” DAVE DILLABO Fair Manager

The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair continues to strive to remain sustainable after losing 100% of the state funding due to the State of California’s budget deficit. Locally, this support equaled $272,000 and accounted for 42% of our fair’s annual budget. This loss of state funding has significantly impacted the daily operations and has seriously affected the fair’s revenue stream and long term future.

The “Pay What You Can” admission policy serves as another stepping stone as we lay the foundation to secure a sustainable future. As the fair endures the third year of zero funding, the time has never been more immediate and the

need has never been greater. Individually, our impact of giving is limited, but together as a community we have the unlimited potential and ability to preserve the future of our fair for generations to come.

We are very fortunate to have incredible community supporters and are optimistic that together our local and surrounding communities will continue to show their support during these challenging economic times. As always, the Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair sincerely appreciates your generous support as we strive to continue a tradition that has served the people of the Klamath Basin for 63 years!

The “Pay What You Can” admission policy allows you the customer, the choice of donating an admission fee for attending the fair. While paying for admission is not required, we kindly ask for support by donating what you can and am providing you the value of your admission to the fair. You have the choice of paying the suggested value, less than, more than or nothing at all. Your admission donation will help promote a sustainable future for the fair and allow everyone to enjoy the fair at reasonable rates.

Above are the values of what you are receiving by attending the fair!

The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair will be offering the general public two (2) choices of parking at this year’s fair. The options include the Daily Preferred

Parking Lot and a Free Parking Lot.

Daily Preferred Paid Parking Lot There are two (2) Preferred Parking Lot for your convenience.

graduated from San Jose State. Jerry spent two years in the Army in the early 1950’s, where he returned home to work for other farmers in the farming industry. Jerry got a job in Klamath Falls with the Airlines and would drive back and forth everyday to work from Tulelake. Jerry retired in 1990 and became in-volved with the Lava Bed Board and the Fish and Wildlife Board. He also helped search for lost navel planes from World War II. Jerry and his co-workers were able to locate them after about three years, however the Navy would not let them recover them. Jerry’s Mom use to teach Home Eco-nomics and Sewing to the kids while he was a Swine leader in his later years. Jer-ry and his wife raised two great children who have four children of their own now. Jerry said it has been a good life.

he Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair Board se-lected Jerry Maxwell of Tule-lake as the 2014 Parade Grand Marshal for the Saturday, Sep-tember 6th parade in recogni-tion of his long-time committed service to the fair and to the

community. Jerry Maxwell was born in 1930 in Adin, California, he then moved to Yreka, California. Jerry finally decided to set-tle down in Tulelake, California on a

Homestead that his parents passed down to him in 1938. Jerry’s Dad was the first Farm Advisor in Siskiyou County. It so happens, that Jerry’s Dad also started the 4-H program. In those days the 4-H program did not include County fairs where the animals could be auctioned off for sale. They were most likely to be raised as pets and gardens were grown for friends and family to see. Some say that if you were lucky you’d have some meat and fresh veggies for the coming winter months. Jerry has fond memories of a milk cow he had when he was younger that he kept records on. Jerry kept re-cords of her milk production and other important facts of raising a milk cow. Jerry worked the family farm where he raised grain and alfalfa hay and if time al-lowed for it, he would work for other lo-cal farmers in the potato and onion fields. Jerry then went on to College where he

Have you ever wanted to walk on water? Now is your chance!

Bobble Lagoon is a unique ride where you climb into a ball and run around in it (on water). Think of a hamster spinning around in a little ball….. that’s what Bobble Lagoon is like! Sounds almost like a form of child abuse, but, as it turns out, it’s one of the greatest forms of child/adult entertainment we’ve seen in years!

Bobble Lagoon is a 30 foot round pool of about 20 inches of water where children (and adults up to 250 lbs.) are placed in a large inflatable clear ball and let loose to run amok on the surface of the water. You can run, jump, flip or just lay back and relax.

You’ll also enjoy the Caribbean theme and feel as if you’re in a tropical paradise. WELCOME TO BOBBLE LAGOON!

Have you ever wanted to pitch horse shoes? You can at the Horse Shoe Pitch-ing Contest on Saturday, September 6 at 9:00 a.m. at the Grandstand Arena.

For those of you who don’t know, horse shoes is an outdoor game played between two people (or two teams of two people) using four horse shoes and two throwing targets (stakes) set in a sandbox area. The game is played by the players alternating turns tossing horse shoes at stakes in the ground, which are traditionally placed 40 feet apart. Modern games use a more stylized U-shaped bar, about twice the size of an actual horse shoe.

Did you know that pitching horse shoes goes back to the days of the Roman army? There are disagreements about whether it began with a round ring or actual horse shoes, but in some form, it was played by officers and foot soldiers alike. The game’s long route included England and then the soldiers of our own country in the Revolutionary War.

You may remember horse shoes being played at family reunions, picnics or potluck dinners with the clanks of ringers and the thuds of misses, accompanied by laughter and kidding from brothers, cousins, and maybe an uncle or two who may not have played since the last reunion. Of course, that was no excuse for missing the stake!

Come on out and pitch a few “shoes” or watch a very popular recreation sport. It may bring back a few memories or create wonderful new ones and perhaps even create a tradition in your family!


Be sure to look for The Rawhide Express when you’re out-and-about! Hop on at one of the train stops and Engineer Ken will give you a tour of the fair. You’ll also be making your feet happy!

The Rawhide Express is truly a remarkable electric and solar powered trackless touring train. The “Environmentally Safe” train emits neither smoke nor fuel odors and carries families in the quiet comfort of their own coach touring around the fairgrounds. The train also has a solar panel charging system so that the batteries maintain a charge as it is driven around.

The Rawhide Express is 4 feet wide and over 40 feet long, with a carry-ing capacity of up to 35 people at one time. All seats face forward for a “Grand View”. Custom made in Belgium, the design features covered coaches all out of very sturdy fiberglass.

Now hop on The Rawhide Express and say “All Aboard”!

Take flight and soar into the air on the Power Jump Bungee. It

will take your breath away! Go as high as 25’ in the air while

doing back flips and somersaults as the two bungee cords guide

you safely back to the inflatable trampoline landing position

each time you come down. Then jump up and fly again and try

something new!! Exhilarating for all ages.

The Power Jump Bungee is a unique amusement ride and set up

in a safe, controlled environment. Don’t miss the opportunity to

fly like an eagle and see the views of the fair, all while getting

your adrenaline pumping!


How Does He Fit Inside That Balloon, or What Makes that Balloon Shimmy and Shake?

Skip Banks, widely known as The Balloon Man, refers to himself as “A New Vaudevillian”. Performing to a mix of classic songs and sound effects, crazy situations, with colorful props, and all combined with visual comedy – this is one Specialty act with a capital “S” that you will never see performed by anyone else. Try visiting his web site to watch his zany videos that say more than we can ever say in print.

Throughout the performance Skip and his faithful followers stop off for hilarious renditions of Cheech and Chong, Michael Jackson, William Hung, Cool Moe Dee, Chubby Checker, William Shatner and an ever-changing cast of family friendly characters.

If you are walking around the Fair and see a huge crowd, laughing and holding their sides, it’s a good bet Skip has set up shop inside his giant balloon and has morphed into one of his colorful characters.

The popularity and variety of the K9 KINGS is great entertainment for many different all ages to enjoy. Each show features up to THIRTEEN variety of breeds, the ONLY daredevil dog agility, one of the RAREST breeds in the world, the FASTEST frisbee® dog in the world, the LARGEST meet greet & pet area, the ONLY "comic book hero" and MULTIPLE trainers. This fun mix of music, costumes, comedy, audience participation and high-flying trick dogs has become a PROFESSIONAL ENTERTAINMENT ACT LIKE NO OTHER IN THE WORLD!

Long before J.D. ever watched one of his canines launch into the air, he had an appreciation for terms like Big Air! Hang time! For 13 years J.D. was a professional snowboard competitor. Thus it seems quite appropriate that his team of canine athletes would continue his tradition of amazing high flying stunts. In the mid 90’s, while still an active snowboard competitor he met a disc dog entertainer who introduced him to the sport of canine flying disc. It wasn’t long before he was hooked on both the competition of canine disc and its amazing way of providing crowd pleasing entertainment.

Over the last 18 years J.D. has developed his own unique approach to the sport. As a kid and adult he was always involved with being an entertainer or athlete and growing up he always had a passion for animals. His company K9 Kings Entertainment seems to be a reflection of his life story combining all of his talents. He’s been blessed with entertaining millions of people around the United States with his special and diverse team of dogs. In addition to entertaining he also loves competing around the country at disc dog events and has earned numerous titles like four time world finalist, FDDO national champions, multiple state champs and two-time Purina national finalist. He’s also been featured on Animal Planet’s Pet Star and appeared on the first and only dog reality show on CBS called “Greatest American Dog” where over 100 million people saw him compete for $250,000 with his dog “Galaxy”.


Michel Olson and Christy Horne are the husband and wife team who have history ringing in the ears of millions of people across the USA!

They travel all across the United States in "Florence" their Recreational Castle, Blacksmith Shop and Stage Rig. They combine fabulous storytelling with anvil accompaniment and have created an award winning Stage Show that has been called "The Best in Family EDUTAINMENT."

Michel and Christy have created 25 different shows featuring Christy's incredible storytelling and Michel's Master Blacksmithing. Michel creates between 4 - 25 items at each show - items like, unicorn shoes, pony shoes, dragons, s hooks, salt spoons, belt hooks and many others. In 2012 over 5,000 items were made and given away to audience members in free drawings following every show.

Gypsies, Tinkers or Travelers as they were called across Europe and Asia, were the first of the traveling Vaudevillian style entertainers and the last of the traveling Master Craftsmen. Michel and Christy keep these traditions alive for future generations.

20 different interactive Museum Displays surround the stage rig, one has a huge lock and keys that really work. Another has a real meteorite that you can even touch!

he Paul Maurer Carnival will be returning to the Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair again this year! Paul Maurer got started in the amusement business in 1971 as a solo game operator, playing numerous fairs and festivals throughout the West. Paul Maurer was known as one of the largest game concessionaires on the

West Coast during that time frame. In 1984, after wanting to fulfill a life long dream, and saving his money earned from his game operation, he purchased his first amusement ride and formed "Paul Maurer Shows". Today, Paul Maurer is the owner of over 33 spectacular, major and kiddy amusement rides and their attractions, which includes a large selection of fun, family games and carnival food / cotton candy concessions. Paul Maurer Shows is known for their unique, brightly-painted rides with their sparkling lights (that shine bright at night), colorful three-toned canvas, aluminum framed games and food concessions. All of their employees are required to undergo a background check using the "California Department of Justice, Megan's Law" website and participate in the show's random drug & alcohol testing program. Maurer’s carnival employees, from the management to ride operators, are fully trained for the safe operation of our amusement rides and attractions. Clean uniforms and personal hygiene are also top priority for the appearance of our staff and show. Their management staff is fully qualified to resolve any problem and is always onsite during the event and made available for any questions, complaints or concerns you may have. Paul Maurer Shows is committed to provide a safe, clean, fun and family carnival atmosphere and keeping those great family memories alive!!

We would like to thank the businesses & individuals listed below for their support of the Rotary Jr. Livestock Auction. We greatly appreciate your continued support.


he Jr. Livestock Auction will take place on Sunday, September 7th @ 2:00 p.m. in the Jock’s Sale Pavilion near the

livestock area. Everyone is invited to attend the auction. This year’s auction will include Beef, Rabbits, Swine, Goats, Sheep, Poultry, Turkey and Wood/Metal projects exhibited by 4-H and FFA members.

Bidding and purchasing on the sale lots benefits the entire community. By purchasing a sale lot you not only help the Tulelake Rotary Club, but you are supporting the months of dedication and labor by the 4-H or FFA members. The projects require the exhibitors to put in numerous hours of hard work as they are responsible for the development and health of their project.

For first-time buyers, the experience can seem a little intimidating because they’ve never bought at an auction before. After reading this article, you’ll realize there is no reason not to participate because buying a fair animal is very easy and is an exciting experience!

The sale begins sharply at 2:00 p.m., so you should arrive a little early in order to register as a potential buyer and get your buyer’s number. Upon arrival at Jock’s Sale Pavilion, visit the Rotary Tent where the assistants will help you complete the paperwork to register as a potential buyer. After completing the paperwork you will receive a buyer’s number that you may use to bid with during the auction. The buyer number allows

the auctioneer and sale staff to know who the final bidder is and in order to record the sale.

After receiving your buyer’s number, you are set and ready to bid on the animals of your choice! Many buyers will arrive early prior to the auction in order to view the animals in the barns and visit with the 4-H and FFA exhibitors about their projects.

During the sale, there will be an auctioneer plus three sale ring attendants, who will acknowledge your bids when you wave your hand or bid number. When you feel you want to bid, just hold up your buyer’s number and the ring attendant will take your bid. Once you’ve bid pay attention to the ring attendant to see if he acknowledges your bid. If the auctioneer took your bid, you will know, as he will be looking to see if anyone else bids more. If the ring attendant starts looking at you again, another bidder has out bid you and he will be looking to see if you want to bid again.

Contrary to popular belief, you will not unknowingly bid on an animal by inadvertently scratching your arm or sneezing. The first time you bid you may need to make sure a spotter sees you, but after that they will watch you closely and make sure they have your bid if you bid again. I can’t stress this enough, bidding is the easiest thing in the world. The auctioneer and ring attendants are there to help the Rotary Club and the exhibitors get their animals sold and they do a wonderful job of it.

The Grand and Reserve Grand Champion market animal of the specie selling with be the first to sell. After the champions, the rest of the animals will sell in descending order of the judging results. Prices per specie will vary, but expect to pay about $2.50-$8.00 per pound for a beef which will weigh between 1050-1400 pounds. Sheep will sell for around $4.00-$8.00 per pound and will weigh between 110-155 pounds. Swine will sell for around $3.00-$4.00 per pound and weigh between 215-275 pounds.

After you have purchased your animal, there is a little bit of paperwork to complete. All animals go to a designated slaughter house, but you get to choose where it will be processed for the cut & wrap of the meat. If you don’t have a certain place, don’t worry, the people handling the sale can inform you of your choices and help you select the one that is most convenient for you.

You are almost finished; you now have to pay for your animal, which can be done either by check or credit card.

The meat from the sale lots that you purchased will be ready to be picked-up from the processor of your choice in about two weeks following the sale. You will definitely enjoy eating the meat you’ve purchased as it is always a little sweeter knowing you’ve helped out a very deserving exhibitor.

Melvin was born. On October 20, 1951, Melvin and Clydine started their family and had a daughter named Terry Marie (McKay) Flowers. On July 26, 1953, their son Russell John McKay was born.

The McKay family moved several times per year to the Sam’s Neck ranch in the spring for the planting, and then back to Sheepy Creek for the winter to feed the cattle. In August of 1954, the old ranch house the family lived in burned to the ground. With the help of good neighbors showering them with gifts and helping them rebuild a new home, they were able to move in during the fall of 1954 to the home which the family now lives in.

On June 24, 1955, Melvin and Clydine were blessed with twin boys, Tim Daniel, and Tom David McKay.

The area in Sheepy Creek had no electricity, and the Power Company wanted a small fortune to put it in. As quoted by Melvin, “they say the best way to get something done is to do it yourself.” In 1963, the McKays and their neighbors (Cross, Allen and Adams Families) went in together and built the power line themselves. The power line was turned over to P.P. & L. and the power was turned on in January of 1964.

Melvin and Clydine have two grandchildren by their daughter, Terry and Jim, namely Scott Melvin Flowers and Spring Marie Flowers. Their son, Russell, and his wife Carol have given them John Russell McKay and Dana Ann McKay.

After Melvin’s father’s death in 1966 and his mother’s death in 1980, he and his brother Robert formed a partnership that is known as the McKay Ranch. They hope to pass the McKay Ranch down to their children and grandchildren, as the property has been in the McKay family for 100 (???) years.

The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair is privileged to honor the McKay Ranch as the Farmer & Rancher of the Year. The contributions and community support that the McKay Ranch and their families have provided are greatly appreciated.

he Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair will be honoring Melvin and Clydine McKay of the McKay Ranch in Dorris as the 2014 Farmer & Rancher of the Year during the Farmers & Ranchers Appreciation

Dinner held on Thursday, September 4th at Jock’s Sale Pavilion. The McKay Ranch is operated by Melvin and Clydine McKay and family. All Klamath Basin area farmers and ranchers are invited to attend the event and enjoy a complimentary dinner.

Melvin was born January 21, 1929, to John J. McKay and Addie (Spurgin) McKay at home, 11 miles east of Dorris, on his father’s ranch. Melvin stayed on the ranch after graduating from Dorris High School to help his Dad with farming, haying and cattle. For fun, Melvin would enter some local rodeos riding bareback broncs.

Melvin met his wife, Clydine Walling in Klamath Falls, Oregon, where her family moved from Yuma, Arizona. Clydine was born June 6, 1943 in El Cajon, San Diego County, California to Clyde Walling and Roberta (Lippincott) Walling.

Melvin and Clydine were married January 6, 1951 in Reno, Nevada. They made their home on the Sheepy Creek ranch where

The Farmers & Ranchers Appreciation Day was developed in 2006 to recognize the efforts of farmers and ranchers in the Klamath Basin that have gone above and beyond their duty to serve their community and provide leadership in the agriculture industry. Former recipients include 2006 Staunton Farms of Tulelake, 2007 Robert A. Byrne Co. of Tulelake, 2008 Porterfield Ranch of Butte Valley, 2009 Leonard Will of Klamath Falls, 2010 LeQ Farms of Tulelake, 2011 Criss Ranch of Butte Valley, 2012 Roy Wright of Tulelake and 2013 Huffman Brothers of Tulelake.

This event would not be possible without the help and sponsorship from the following local businesses; Scott Valley Bank, North State Packaging, Big R, Kalina’s Hardware, Gene & Alice Deal, Millard Dental, Macy’s Flying Service, Superior Fence, Aspen Electric, Basin Fertilizer, Struble Ranch, Plant Sciences Inc., Monte Johnson Insurance Services, Stateline Parts Supply and Umpqua Bank

The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair would like to thank these sponsors for their contributions as we recognize the efforts put forth by all of the basin farmers and ranchers throughout the year.

he Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair will be premiering a brand new event at this year’s fair. If you’re looking for a thrill-a-minute, fun-filled activity for kids, with extreme spectator entertainment value, check out the Kid’s Barnyard Rodeo event at this year’s fair! This exciting, new children’s

event provides the youngsters a chance to participate in numerous fun events in a rodeo like atmosphere providing friendly competition between the children! The Barnyard Rodeo provides events for children ages 3-15. The Barnyard Rodeo events will include, Mutton Bustin, Greased Pig Scramble, Steer Dummy Roping, Potato Sack Races, Egg & Spoon Races, Stick Horse Races and a Watermelon Rolling contest. The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair is proud to offer this free, fun-filled family event on Sunday, September 7th starting at 10:00 a.m. at this year’s fair!

For more information about participating in the event, information and entry forms can be found in the Entry Handbook, which are available at Big R, Grange Co-op and at the OSU Extension Office in Klamath Falls, on the fair’s website at www.tbvfair.com, at the fair office in Tulelake or by contacting the fair office @ 530-667-5312 or [email protected]

Mutton Bustin’ is one of the most popular events and offers youngsters between the ages of 4 to 8 years old, weighing less than 60 lbs. an opportunity to try to ride a sheep for a full six seconds! If they stay on for the full six second ride they will receive a score just like any rough stock rodeo rider would! The highest score of the round wins. If none of the participants ride for the full six seconds, the rider who stayed on the longest wins the round. The top three riders from each round will receive placing awards and ALL of the riders in each round will receive a participation award.

This fun-filled event creates non-stop action and excitement as the children and our wooly bully sheep grab the attention of numerous fairgoers. Whether it’s a one second or six second ride, these youngsters are in for a wild, exciting and memorable time! The added production of funny commentary, in-arena/chute rider interviews and crowd interaction will make this one of the most popular spectator events at the fair!

The Pig Scramble is a squealing, scrambling good time and is as much fun for the kids as it is for the spectators watching! Contestants between the ages of 4 to 12 years of age and weighing less than 85 lbs race after clever and wily young pigs turned loose in the arena. The contestant’s objective is to catch and hold on to a slippery pig in the grass arena. Be prepared: if a contestant catches a pig, the pig will come home to live with the contestant! ALL of the scramblers in each round will receive a participation award. Tell-tale squeals of delight will be heard throughout the fairgrounds!

Steer Dummy Roping is a good ol’ ropin’ fun time, letting the kids experience where the Old West came from. The cattle didn’t always want to “get along” on the trail so cowboys became skilled in roping the disagreeable animals. Children aged 5 to15 can participate in roping or “catching” a “dummy” steer by twirling the rope in the air, flinging it forward, and neatly bending it around the head of the dummy calf that is his/her target. It doesn’t matter if the rope misses, it’s all about having fun! The little buckaroos will have a dadgum blast with the dummy (as will the older cowboys and cowgirls at heart)!

The Potato Sack Races will provide great fun for the competitors and excitement for the spectators! Open to competitors ages 3 to 15 to hop on out into the arena and race like super spuds!! Individual Potato Sack Race: Participants will run to the sack, put both feet in and begin hopping toward the finish line. Contestants must keep both feet in sack and at least one hand on the sack at all times. The sack must remain as close to the waist as possible and should not fall below the knees. The first racer to the finish line wins. Three-legged Potato Sack Race: Two people form a team to race. One person put a left leg and the other person put a right leg in a potato sack. They stand side-by-side and race together from the beginning to the end. The teamwork is the key to finish the race successfully. Usually, walking and running are the more proper method to race rather than hopping or jumping. The first team reaches the finish line wins! Did you know that sack racing was made an official Olympic event in the 1904 Summer Olympics in St. Louis? The good old-fashioned potato sack game is a great past-time and will bring back many childhood memories.

The Egg & Spoon Race will have kids and adults “cracking up” by offering a fun and exciting event for the youngsters! Open to children ages 3 to 15. All contestants will be in the arena at the start line. An egg and spoon will be given to each contestant. Contestants must race with the egg in the spoon, holding the spoon by the handle, and far enough so judges can see that no finger or thumb touches the egg. On the signal, contestants race to far end of arena, around a barrel and back to the finish line. The first contestant back with their egg wins. Which came first? The Egg or the Spoon?

The Stick Horse Race provides great ol’time fun for the youngsters! We’re calling all jockeys, ages 3 to 10, to compete in the Barnyard Rodeo Stick Horse Races! We will provide the stick horses, you provide the fun!

•Race 1 (10 yards): 3-4 year olds•Race 2 (20 yards): 5-7 year olds•Race 3 (30 yards): 8-10 year olds

Watermelon Roll Contest is a fun event for children of all ages. We all love the taste of watermelon, but have you ever tried to roll one on the ground and get it to go where you want it to? We guarantee this to be one of the funniest games yet!


ave you ever wondered who maintains all of the beautiful flower gardens at the fairgrounds? It’s the people of the great Klamath

Basin who are responsible for the beautiful scenery that the flower gardens provide us all! In 1994, the idea of the Adopt-A-Spot Gardens was created by the fair manager at that time, Cindy Wright. The concept of the flower gardens was to allow the people of the local communities to actively participate at the fair throughout the summer by managing and caring for their specific flower garden. The care takers are then rewarded at fair-time by receiving up to $200 for their hard work and dedication put forth in their flower garden. The beautiful exhibits are a reflection of the pride that the competitive gardeners have for the community and the fairgrounds. The Adopt –A –Spot gardens have continued to flourish and grow in numbers as the years have passed by. This year, there will be 24 Adopt-A-Spot Gardens available for the public to enjoy. The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair would like to give a special thanks to all of the Adopt-A-Spot flower gardeners for their continued dedication and contributions that they provide while greatly enhancing the beauty of the fairgrounds! If you are interested in participating in the 2015 Adopt-A-Spot Flower program, call the fair office at (530) 667-5312 or email [email protected].

Moodswing will be rocking the stage at this

year’s fair. Performing as an acoustic duo,

Ron and Pamela create a dynamic sound,

with unique harmonies and bold solos.

Great entertainers with comedy and heart!

Ron Houck and Pamela Jones have been

performing music together as Mood Swing,

for over 19 years, at pubs, fairs and festivals

around the country. Although most well known

for his bass playing (upright and electric), for

the last six years, the guitar has been Ron’s

instrument of choice. They are often joined

by Sir Walter Raleigh, their 11 year-old Border

Collie mix, and yes, he DOES sing. There are

several songs that he loves and knows quite

well, including originals: “Raleigh’s Blues”

and “Bloom Where You’re Planted.”

Cherry Road Gang, a rockin country band, will be a new attraction to this year’s fair on Stage #1.

Cherry Street is an actual place in located in the Northern Bay Area of California where our Grandfather and his nine brothers were raised. They ran moonshine during the Prohibition (never convicted), were drafted to Professional Football Teams, and served as decorated officers in World War II, Vietnam, and Korea. During which time the brothers took turns in succession as leaders of a gang that worked to keep people safe in the Cherry Street Community. Thus, we are named in honor and respect to our past and an era in history that still holds more allure in our hearts than any other, The Cherry Road Gang.

Our music is as unique and genuine as our lives — inspired by the fathers of southern rock and roll who successfully blended Country, blues, and rock creating a genre that reached out to fans around the world. As a family we were always active in the hard-working country life community — Raising livestock, breaking horses, and chasing gold-buckle dreams as professional cowboys. Perhaps it is enough to say we broke as many bones as we did hearts and have no intention of slowing down.

Clay (Lead Singer/Rhythm Guitar) never let the impossible roadblocks of pursuing a career in music sway his ambition. His relentless determination and belief in our gift has brought us here today.

Travis (Lead Guitar) picked up a six-string and committed himself to the ruthless task of mastering an instrument.

Canaan (Drums) suffered a major knee injury riding bulls and turned to his drum kit to fill the void in his normally physically active lifestyle.

Cody (Bass Guitar) rode bulls professionally and graduated from the Shasta College Fire Academy to be a smoke jumper, one of the most dangerous jobs in the world. He can play almost any musical instrument.

We are proud to say that this band is composed entirely of family members, that every member of this band is employed and that our work ethic is represented on stage. Don’t forget to look us up on Facebook.

With the release of their first album

titled 'The Answer' debuting April 2013,

Nashville recording artist, the Chris

Gardner Band, is just getting started.

Excitement is buzzing over their first

single, “Everybody Loves My Baby” and

managing over 150 shows per year, its

sure to be heard! With their country-rock

lyrics, soulful harmonies, high energy

performances and vulnerability on

stage, the Chris Gardner Band always

gives their best.

Six incredible musicians whose talents

excel alone but thrive together are taking

huge steps towards flourishing careers

in music. It has been very rewarding

for the band to open up for major

country artists such as Chris Young,

Luke Bryan, Love and Theft, Jerrod

Neiman, Joe Nichols, Mark Chestnut,

Josh Gracin and more. At Country in the

Park this year, they opened up for Billy

Currington and amazed a sold out crowd

of 17,000 in Sacramento, CA that was

put on by CBS. They competed in the

Colgate Country Showdown all the way

to state championships in Nevada and

entertained 10,000 people at the 2010

Monster Truck Show at Arco Areno in

Sacramento.

The energy coming off the stage when

the Chris Gardner Band performs is

phenomenal. “They [the fans] know

us for our show,” says Gardner, whose

greatest influences include Alabama,

Conway Twitty and Chris' father, John Gardner. With great respect for any musician that performs, Gardner says, “we influence each other and I think its important that we support our fellow peers as much as possible.”

Supporting local communities is very important to the band members and they continue to help with Relay for Life, Make a Wish Foundation and Toys for Tots. “We try to do a benefit anytime anyone is in need,” states Gardner. The Chris Gardner Band has so many people to thank for their continued support and love of their music. But if you asked the band who theyʼre going to thank first when they make it to the top, it's Jesus Christ. He's the one behind their music.
