1982: The Curry County Fair was planning a new event – a youth pet show.
Organizers said the show would be open to children of all ages and everyone would receive a blue ribbon.
“(T)he children can bring any kind of pet – even goldfish,” said organizer Elizabeth Teel.
Blue ribbons would also go to the pet with the biggest eyes or ears, and to pets with other distinguishing marks.
The annual county fair was scheduled Sept. 6-11.
