One item per category, up to 25 total items is allowed. The items also are judged with ribbons and premiums given for the top three entries in each category. There is also a category for local professionals, for exhibit only.

The rules, category lists and entry times are available at the fair secretary's office or on-line at www.darkecounty fair.com.
