Dear Fair Supporter:

Thank you for being a supporter of the 2022 Gallia County Jr Fair Market Livestock and Tobacco sale. Your generosity is appreciated.

We are going to pre-register buyers for the 2022 Friday and Saturday Fair Sales. Enclosed you should find your two buyer numbers on two separate cards. These numbers will be used for both sale days, so please bring these cards with you on BOTH Friday and Saturday.

The RED number is for animals you buy and want to go to resale. This card should have RESALE printed on the bottom. (Red-Resale)

The BLACK number is for animals you buy and want to go to a DESIGNATED butcher shop. This card should have BUTCHER printed on the bottom. (Black-Butcher)

By holding up one of these cards when you buy an animal, it automatically tells us who bought the animal and where the animal is going. It also saves you the hassle of filling out paperwork at the Sale because we will already have it on file. Therefore, it is important that you fill out the pre-registration sheet enclosed and return it to the Extension Office as soon as possible.

Please check your enclosed information and printed buyer number for errors including your return address. If there are any changes needed to your buyer number or registration, please contact the Extension Office at 740-794-6001 or email green.84@osu.edu.

All animals will be transferred out immediately after they leave the sale ring, so there will be no time to change the destination. Even though the ring men may know you, please hold up your number at the sale so we will know who the buyer is and where the animal is going. This will ensure the sale runs efficiently. If you return your pre-registration form AND do not designate a butcher shop on the form, the sale chairman will make the decision as to where the animal will go.
