The Pawnee County Fair was established in 1942 and the
Fair Association takes pleasure in presenting herewith the
Premium List, Rules and Regulations governing the
Seventy Eighth Annual Free Fair to be held at the Fair
Grounds in Pawnee, Oklahoma, September 9, 10, 11, 12,
2020.
A properly conducted fair should be demonstrative of the
agricultural enterprises in the county. It should stimulate
exhibitors to improve their skills and techniques. Three major
components of the fair should be education, competition, and
entertainment. Usually the county fair is the largest agricultural
activity of the year. It brings together people of all groups in
the county and allows the opportunity for renewal of old
friendships and the opportunity for meeting new friends. The
success of the Free Fair depends much upon the interest
manifested by the various exhibitors and the premium list has
been made as large as the appropriations will justify. It is the
goal of the Pawnee County Fair board to offer a premium for
all kinds of livestock, handiwork and farm products that will
be exhibited from Pawnee County that are found worthy. The
Pawnee County Fair board will do their best in making this
event as enjoyable as possible. This is a free fair. No gate
admission will be charged.

The WWW Virtual Library: Science Fairs –
Http://physics.usc.edu/-gould/sciencefairs/
Science Fair Central –
http://school.discovery.com/sciencefaircentral/
Information about Oklahoma Science Fairs –
http://ossef.ecok.edu/ Sample Judging Criteria: Displays must
be free standing and are limited to 3’X 4’ (width x depth) when
sides are extended. Commercially available “Science Fair
Presentation Boards” are encouraged.
Counties may enter one exhibit in each class. Displays without
reports will be judged accordingly. Displays with reports will
be placed above those missing reports.
Classes:
1. Beginning Division (grades 3-5) – A display illustrating the project.
2. Intermediate Division (grades 6-8) – a display with an accompanying report of approximately two typewritten
pages.
3. Advanced Division (grades 9-12) – A display and a written report about the project that includes an interview
with a scientist, science teacher or someone who is
knowledgeable about the area that is being studied.
(Example: a beekeeper could help with bee projects)
Reports should be three to five pages in length.
4. Team Exhibit (All Grades) – Team may include a maximum of three members. - A display and a written
report about the project. It is recommended that includes
an interview with a scientist, science teacher or someone
who is knowledgeable about the area that is being
studied. (Example: An engineer could help with

4-H FABRICS AND FASHIONS
(DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION)
Section 306
PREMIUMS: $4, $3, $2, $1, $1
All other places will be ribbons only.
Fall 2020 – All Design and Construction projects will be
REQUIRED to have the Skill Mastery Sheet securely
attached to the project. Use a safety pin and attach directly
to the exhibit when at all possible. NEVER attach sheet to a
hanger! The sheet MUST be completed by the 4-H member.
The Skill Mastery sheet http://4h.okstate.edu/literature-
links/lit-online/family-consumer-science/fabri/skill-mastery-
sheets is an education tool to guide project work. Click
hyperlink “Sample Technique Cards” to find instruction for
many of the techniques noted in the skill sheets (i.e. facings,
zippers, hems, fasteners, etc.) Additional hyperlinks to skill
sheets and technique cards provided throughout categories.
Fair Exhibits have been carefully selected and directed for
members to investigate and learn specific skills and
information. The end product is being evaluated on the
skills “learned/mastered.” The skill sheet serves as the
member’s “personal reflection” and communicates to the
judge what was learned. Why is this important? Because in
4-H, reflection and application of what was learned is more
important than the end product/exhibit. “Use the skill sheet
as a planning tool. Ask yourself, “What skills are necessary
to learn and appropriate to apply to my project’s design and
construction?” It is important that each 4-H member take
responsibility for the life skill of “learning to learn”. This
may require members, leaders and educators to look up
terms and learn techniques as part of the educational
process.
Resources, instructions and project guides are posted online.
Members are encouraged to seek out other valid resources
which teach proper technique and knowledge in the areas of
design and construction. General Skills to be mastered in project/product in ADC, IDC
and HTDC:
Structural Design: Construction technique, size, form, color
and texture suited to the materials and product end use.
Elements of Design: The finished product illustrates the
member is learning or mastering the basic elements of design -
lines, shapes or forms, textures, colors, and space.
Principles of Design: The finished product illustrates an
awareness and application of the principles of harmony,
proportion, balance, rhythm and emphasis adding dimension,
interest and/or appeal to the finished product.
Surface Design: Any lines, shapes, colors, textures, or materials
applied to the product or item design that creates an emotional
or personal quality, individuality and creative expression
without disturbing initial/end purpose. Design is that
“something which makes the item unique to the individual
designer.
Reports/Descriptions/Expense Sheets/etc. - Exhibits
requiring a report/description/expense sheet of any kind,
can be typed or neatly/legible hand written. Report should
be one-two pages. If typed, it must be double spaced using a
minimum of 12-point font. Report MUST be SECURELY attached to the exhibit.
A 4-H member may enter one exhibit per class.
Hangers will not be returned.
