Canned Goods 
Hodge Building
- All exhibitors must have an exhibitor’s number which can be obtained in several ways: Friday at the Hodge building between 3 & 8 pm, the fair office (284-7062 or e-mail “”sandwichfair@cyberpine.net be sure to include your complete mailing address with zip code. Late entries will not be accepted. Entries must be picked up after 5:00 pm and before 6:30 pm on Monday. Vehicles will not be allowed on the grounds until 6:00 PM Monday.
- Entries should have simple labels and lids. Labels are to be placed on the front of the jars, and must have ONLY, exhibitor #, category #, category name and processing date. Exhibitors name must NOT be visible, and may only be on the bottom of the jar. Each jar must be separately listed on the “Hall Entry Form”, which can be obtained on this web site under “Down Load Forms” in the back of the Exhibitors Handbook, by calling the fair office (284-7062) or the night of drop off. Listing ingredients on a separate label is optional.
- Canned goods are not opened and are judged entirely on appearance of jar and contents. Color, uniformity, packing, bail height, etc. as stated in the Ball Blue Book. Rings are removed and lids inspected, so excessive decorations hinder judging. Please leave rings on the lids and make sure that all labels are securely attached. Jars should be clean and neat. All canned goods must be current year’s canning. Old style flip lids with rubber ring seals are not acceptable and will be automatically disqualified.
- Ball/Jarden sponsors a separate competition. Please bring an extra jar of your best canned goods for this competition. Rules for the Ball/Jarden Adult and Youth competitions are listed below. If you plan on entering the open competition along with the Ball/Jarden competition you will need two (2) jars of your canned goods.
- Exhibitors with multiple entries are encouraged to stop at the Fair Office and pick up your exhibitor tags before the fair, saving time on the night of drop off, as each jar needs its own tag. If you are unable to get your tags ahead of time, they will be available at the canned goods department on Friday between 3pm and 8pm.
