Turn your humble SPUD into a sweet potato
It’s A Contest!
At the Cornish Fair August 16-18
Now that you have a seed potato to plant, save a few for the fair to enter as is, or jump right into this SPUDTACULAR contest.
Disguise a potato, so that it appears to be something other than a potato! Dress it in a costume, create farm animals or add different things to it, use your imagination and transform it however you want. Then, come up with a creative name for your creation and bring it to the fair for display.
All Clover Buds will receive a participation ribbon. For youth 8 and up, this entry is eligible for a fair premium in the craft entry category and there will be a special area in the exhibit hall where all the SPUDS will be showcased. There will also be one special spud that will earn the honor of Best of Show SPUD!
Details:
- No pre-registration required.
- One entry per youth.
- Each entry should have a creative name.
- Entries may include more than one potato.
- All entries should be prepared in advance and should be brought to the fair ready for display.
- Entries are due in the exhibit hall at the Cornish Fair on Thursday August 16th between 2:00pm-8:00pm.
- Entries may be picked up on Sunday, August 18th at 6:00pm. NOTE: Potatoes not picked up will be discarded.
- Entries should be built and fresh enough to withstand 3 days at the fair. So, plan early, do a few trial runs and then build a FRESH SPUD entry just before the fair.
- Inappropriate entries will be disqualified.
