DEDICATED TO
Dave & Jeanne Smith have been a big part of the Allen County Agricultural Society for many years. Dave
was a Society Director from 1991-2015 serving the City of Lima. Dave served on many committees, including
Entertainment, Gate/Parking/Safety/Security, Rent, Buildings/Grounds, Personnel, Draft Horses, Scholar-
ship and was Concessions and Commercial Exhibits Director from 1994-2015. Dave and Jeanne have helped
in many ways behind the scenes at the Allen County Fair. One favorite way they helped was the compa-

as possible. Thank you Dave & Jeanne, for the time and talents you have given to the Allen County Fair.OPEN CLASS EXHIBITOR’S HANDBOOK
