August 2011


               August 13, 2011
              
Time: 9:00 a.m.
               Event Name: The Georgetown Fair Llama Show.

               The State of Illinois has pulled all funding so right now the fair board has decided to     
               make the llama show a "jackpot show" which means premiums will be taken out of the
               entry fees. The fair board is working to get some businesses to sponsor the
               show so we can have more premiums. If you would like to make a donation towards the
               llama show you can send a check to the following address and mark the check as a 
               donation for the llama show.

                Georgetown Fair
                c/o Rick Knight
                12999 E 475 N Rd.
                Indianola, IL 61850
