The Williams County Agricultural Society met on May 18, 2023 at 7:03 p.m. After the pledge of allegiance, the Society took roll call, and those that answered were: Directors Tim Belding; Scott Carroll; Tobi Fenicle; Jason Fry; Tom Fry; Pam Goll; Matt Kennedy; Summer Owens; and later Dave Page. Auxiliary Directors present were Chad Carroll.

The minutes of the April meeting were approved with one correction, a name change, and then the treasurer’s report was accepted as presented.

Director Goll reported that the estimates for the bills of the May 13th flea market are looking to be at about $700, but that bills are still coming in and being added before that can be submitted.

Director Fenicle shared that they are heavily looking for sponsors for the 2023 fair, and that they are currently no longer taking bike donations, as they have more than enough to use as prizes.

After discussion, it was decided that the lawn maintenance for the Williams County Veterans Building would be shared between Director Kennedy and Director Belding for this year.

Director Page informed the Society that advertising is getting finalized as dates are becoming more concrete, and that he will have a meeting with FOX 36 News soon, as well as post various advertisements in the local newspapers.

Director Goll then had rental requests for the auxiliary building approved for end-of-season rentals, the swine rule updates have been posted to Facebook, and shared that the Livestock Committee made a downpayment of $18,250 for the roof on the Swine Barn.

The deadline for tagging sheep, goats, and feeder calves is June 3rd.

Director Carroll shared that they were planning to sell baked goods this year at the auction, under the grand-stand around 4 p.m.

The Cheer Off contract was accepted as presented, and Director Page then detailed a recently received grant that will replace the bulbs in the show arena to LEDs, which will massively save on electric costs, as well as the future hot water heater replacement vision.

An estimate for flooring replacement and update costs will be submitted as soon as the floors are measured out.

The fair show schedule has just completed its first stage of updates, the last of which is to be submitted by June 9th.

As for new business, the Fair Board is looking for those that are interested in a paid position cleaning the grounds, and plans to put out advertisements for this soon.

The Williams County Agricultural Society voted to continue mailing premium checks physically before entering executive session at 7:51 p.m.
