Pig arrival times for Saturday, July 21st are 6:00pm to 11:00pm.  All pigs coming to the fair will have their temperature tested at unloading Saturday evening by the fair vet or one of his staff members.  Any pig having a raised temperature or exhibiting signs of illness (i.e. coughing, wheezing, etc.) will be tested for swine influenza.  Any pig testing positive for swine influenza will not be permitted to stay on the fairgrounds and must be removed Saturday evening.

There was an Open Pig Show the weekend of June 29th at our fairgrounds.  The entire barn is being sanitized by the Clermont County Pork Producers this weekend in preparation for our fair pigs.  Thank you to them for also setting up the entire barn this year.

If you have a pig that has lost an ear tag and you have already notified Kim or Jerry Hill, it will be tagged at fair unloading on Saturday, July 21st.  If you have lost a tag and have not notified Kim or Jerry Hill please do so.

Thanks! Kim and Jerry Hill
