You get to see all the wonderful things people have created, visit with friends, and have a taste of funnel cake or one of the other wonderful forbidden ven- dor goodies. Have you ever thought about entering something yourself. No, well having an entry of your own at the fair adds a special excitement and you may be a winner and gar- ner some money. The Exhibitor Handbook has all the entry information. It was sent out in the Red Bluff Daily news in early July, but you can get copies from the Tehama District Fair office on Antelope Blvd., the Red Bluff and Corning Chamber of Com- merce offices and the Umpqua Bank in Los Molinos The fair will be open September 22-25. The deadline for entry forms is Aug. 31, except for the Junior and Senior Floriculture which is Sep. 16. There are so many different areas in which to enter. Everyone should be able to find an area of interest. Each section has it’s own requirements so check them out carefully. There is a Horse Department which starts with Arabians, to Mor- gans, Appaloosa and Miniature to name just a few. The Feature machine quilting, along with cro- chet, knit, embroidered and sewn items in the Clothing and Textiles department Arts and Crafts Department fea- tures decorative painting, hand- crafted items, scrap booking, stamp art and an open category. Exhibits Booths and Senior Beef Cattle follow. Agriculture Horticulture comes next with items such as grains, beans, seed, vegetables and decidu- ous fruits.

The Floriculture Department (our favorite) includes outdoor gar- dens, container plants, cut branch- es, cut flowers arrangements and table settings.

California Department of Fish and Game (DFG) licensing automation made it easier for big game hunters to apply for prized tags this year. The new Automated License Data System (ALDS) is credited for a surge in the number of applicants for the highly anticipated Big Game Draw. Total applications were up 10 percent on average for antelope, deer and sheep, with elk applications up 13 percent over last year. Only a limited number of tags are issued annually for each species. In previous years, hunters had to drop off their applications at DFG offices, sometimes having to brave long lines of last-minute applicants. This year, walk-in traffic was light as most hunters purchased their applications on the Internet or at a license agent. New this year was the opportunity for hunters to purchase as many chances as they liked (at $5.40 each) to win a rare Owens Valley elk tag and an open zone deer tag. The Owens Valley elk tag raised $60,120 and the open zone deer tag raised $77,585. The money raised would like to finish painting the iron fence for the museum, but donations are needed to purchase enough black paint to keep going. Donations can be sent to Kelly Griggs Muse- um, P.O. Box 9082 in Red Bluff. DFG online licensing increases applications by these tags goes into the newly implemented Big Game Management Account (BGMA). Senate Bill 1058 (Harman) made specific and important changes to existing law regarding revenues from the sale of antelope, elk, deer, wild pig, bear and sheep tags, including any fund-raising tags. Revenue from these sales must be deposited into the BGMA to provide separate accountability for the receipt and expenditure of these funds. The law stipulates the per- mitted uses for these funds, including acquiring land, completing projects, implementing programs to bene- fit antelope, elk, deer, wild pigs, bear and sheep, and expanding public hunting opportunities and related public outreach. Typically these two tags would be auctioned off by nonprofit organizations, which generate approximate- ly $25,000. Applications for the 2011 Big Game Draw closed June 2.
