Brenna Hutchinson
2014 Chippewa Fair Book Cover Winner

 Hello!  My name is Breena Hutchinson.  I live on
a "hobby farm" just outside of Sault Ste. Marie.
  All of my life I have enjoyed living on the farm,
being home schooled and crafting for the Chippewa
County Fair.
  Taking my knitting, crocheting, baked goods,
etc... to the fair each year is always so much fun!  
There are many wonderful memories I have of the
fair and I look forward to making many more!
  I anticipate seeing what new and exciting
attractions will be at the fair this coming year.  I
hope you will join my family and me at the
Chippewa County Fair!

   "Our Best Is Yet To Be Seen in 2014"
         Spencer Shunk Sr.
         Premium Book Dedication
The Chippewa County Fair is dedicating the 2014
Premium Book to Spencer Shunk Sr., who passed
away on March 17, 2014 at the age of 92.
  Spencer Sr. was a dedicated supporter of the
Chippewa County Fair market livestock sale and
filled his freezer each fall with pork, lamb or beef
raised by local youth.  He also, enjoyed telling tales
around the campfires of the fairgrounds at night,
often with a curly-haired grandchild on his knee.  
Most importantly, Slpence Sr. was proud of the fact
that so many of his chidren, grand children and
great-grand children were fair exhibitors.  The
tradition began with his son, Spence Jr. and his
daughter Brenda showing animals for the first time
in the 1950's.  Every year since then, he could be
found ringside on show day, with a proud twinkle in
his eye as he watched his growing family carry on
his love of livestock.
  Spence Sr's strong legacy continues - 3 of his
grandchildren and 19 of his great-grand children are
exhibiting in the 2014 Chippewa County Fair.
FAIR NEWS (Continued)
At the January, 2014, Annual fair board
meeting, David Love retired from the board
after 33 years of service.  In appreciation for his
many years, the board presented Dave with a
coat and a plague.  He served as board
president for several of those years and was
sheep superintendent for most of those years.  
He will continued to be involved with the fair as
sheep superintendent.  He has had children or
grandchildren participating in the fair since 1978.

Everyone attending the meeting was treated to
cake in his honor.
