Back to the Top Tag-In for Union County Fair
The mandatory tag-in
of market goats, lambs, hogs and dairy feeders will take place on Saturday
May 10 from 8 – 11 am.
Exhibitors of Goats, Lambs, & Hogs should enter the Union County Agricultural Center parking lot off of Rt. 4. Lambs & Goats will be tagged in the southwest side of the Ag Center parking lot. Hogs will be tagged in the north parking lot (next to the flag pole). All hogs must be ear notched prior to arriving at tag-in. Exhibitors of Goats, Lambs, and Hogs will exit the Ag Center parking lot by turning left onto County Home Road, go to the County Engineers Road, turn left, and go to Rt. 4. This is a much safer way to re-enter Rt. 4 with trailers. Exhibitors of Dairy Feeders will be tagged at the OSU Vet Clinic on County Home Rd. Trailers with Dairy Feeders should take the County Engineers Road off of Rt. 4 to get to the Vet Clinic, and will exit via the County Engineers road back to Rt. 4. Back to the Top Entries Due for County Bred, Born & Shown
Classes at Union County Fair Entries for Goat, Lamb
