An active member of the First Baptist Church Centralia, Clarence held many positions from Greeter to N raising his voice on Sundays with the Mass Choir.

Clarence retired from DuPont. He was married to the late Shirley Mae Allen E Steed and is survived by his two daughters, Deborah and Angie, four grandchildren, and many other family members and friends. Clarence served on the Fair’s Board of Directors from 2007 until his death. He will be M greatly missed by all who knew him, and his dedication to volunteering is an example for everyone to follow. O OTIS E. “BUSTER” GREENE April 6, 1935 - June 21, 2013 R uster worked gate security at the Chesterfield County Fair for several Y B years.

2 | CHESTERFIELD COUNTY FAIR From the PRESIDENT As a young boy growing up in Chesterfield County, one of my fondest memories is of coming to the Chesterfield County Fair. It wasn’t a large fair but it was a place where you would see people you hadn’t seen in a year. There was also the large track where the races took place and sometimes a high school football game was played. The event that I looked forward to seeing most of all was the Chesterfield County fire truck competition. Well, the old fair grounds are gone but we’ve been in our current location since 1989. This year we will be celebrating our 100th Fair and it will be our largest fair ever. One hundred years is quite an accomplishment for a fair run by volunteers. It is my wish that we have a large turnout for this special year and new memories will be formed for the young and old alike. It has been a great honor to be the president of the 100th Chesterfield County Fair. We look forward to our next century of fairs. M From the E GENERAL MANAGER S Welcome to the 100th Chesterfield County Fair. I am S so proud to be able to say that our association has been in existence for this long and we are not showing any signs of slowing down. In fact, each year the fair continues to grow. Following our theme - 100 Years: Honoring Our Past, we A have a special display in the Arts and Crafts Building fea- turing pictures, newspaper articles and other memorabilia from our past fairs. Be sure to stop by and take a walk G down memory lane. Several new features have been added to the fair this year. First off, the option of buying tickets online has been E added to our website. Also, Mobility Concepts, LLC will be providing strollers, wagons, wheel chairs and electric scooters for rent, making the fair more accessible to ev- S eryone. We will showcase GXW Pro Wrestling and an Extreme Bull Riding Competition sanctioned by SEBRA. There will be a nightly karaoke contest leading to a final sing-off . New to our music line-up will be The Pizazz Band (Beach/Top40/Rock), Jeremy Staubus Band (County) and American Pride (Statler Brothers Tribute). To highlight some of the new attractions we will have the Tiger Encounters, Woody’s Menagerie Zoo and the Rowdy Rooster Puppet Show who will delight kids of all ages. Heritage Village has expanded to include not only Civil and Revolutionary War displays but Brahma Bulls and oxen wagon rides, soap making, woodcarving, weaving and a violin maker to name some of the places to stop. Don’t miss the antique tractor and farm equipment display, watch the racing pigs, and see the Star Family Circus. I will have a full line-up of must-see attractions so come early and plan to stay late. There is so much we offer at the fair but our roots go back to the days of farmers bringing livestock and crops to the fair for display and bragging rights. As you can see in our Arts and Crafts Building, the tradition continues with residents entering veg- etables, flowers and handwork in hopes of winning that prized blue ribbon. This year you will notice a change in our ribbon design to reflect the county seal and show the year in which we were established. I hope everyone attending the fair can see the love and hard work that went into putting on such an array of entertainment and exhibits. I would like to thank all our volunteers and board members who have worked tirelessly on the fair. My hope is that ev- eryone attending the fair makes special memories and will return for many years to come, because we are a family tradition built by families proudly representing Chesterfield County.

CHESTERFIELD COUNTY FAIR | 9 Miss Chesterfield County Fair SAVANNAH LANE

ast August, with a beautiful glittering crown on my 2 head, I grabbed my little brother Brennan’s hand and Lleapt with joy into the cab of the iconic County Fair Ferris wheel.
