The Kings Mountain Herald October 3, 2002_Section A, Page Cleveland County Fair is a family tradition By TODD HAGANS Republic Newspapers A sunny Sunday afternoon provided the perfect invitation for the crowd of people attending the 78th annual Cleveland County Fair. Fair goers enjoyed viewing arts and crafts exhibits, taking a whirl oi one of the many amusement rides like Pharaoh's Fury and the Orbitor and sampling a bounty of carni- val delicacies ranging from funnel cakes to cotton candy. For Moss Lake resident Dena Green, the food is one of her top reasons for attending the Cleveland County spectacle. "The fair food is like no other," said Green, who made her way to the Shelby fairgrounds to watch her daughter, Kendra, perform with her dance group. "I like the fact that the kids have a chance to dance." Vangelyn King of Shelby said the fair means "walking around" and sampling French fries and Polish sausage, her favorite fair foods. : "It is just a thing that I have to come t the fair every year to enjoy myself," said King. The fair is a yearly tradition for Cherryville cattle farmers Dean and Nancy Crocker. The Crockers show some of the area's top Black Angus and have the win- ning ribbons to prove it. Recipients of nine first place awards, a second place ribbon and two grand cham- pion banners for the top bull and female, the Crockers also took home the fair's Herdsman Award for keeping their stalling area in tip-top shape. Farming is a family affair for the Crockers, who share their love of cattle with their son, Clinton. . "Our son takes this business seriously," said Nancy, who meets and greets specta- tors strolling through the arena to get an up-close look at the many farm animals. , Dean said judges consider areas like structural correctness, muscle tone and gen- eral eye appeal when evaluating cattle for the fair's top prizes and that "breeding, feeding and working with them! are the ;- ~ secrets to raising award-winning cattle. "It just takes a special animal to be a show animal,” said Dean. Fellow Cherryville farmer Travis Jones Senator David Hoyle.
