and sunshine it was a great day for the 4th Annual Fair Partners’ Shootout. The sky reverberated with the sound of thousands of rounds of ammunition being shot at sporting clays that were coming from every angle and direction! Thanks to the support and cooperation of many people,
including NICA, OABA, and the Florida Federation of Fairs, the Shootout was a great success! The concept for the Shootout started with the idea that there was a need for a networking event in February when so many of the Fair industry associations were in town for their national meet- ings. The Florida Federation of Fairs, NICA and OABA joined in
with their support and help. All three organizations promot- ed the event through communication with their members. A special thanks to Kathy and Jeff Ross with Ross Con-
cessions who worked diligently on behalf of NICA to round up silent auction items, promote the event to potential shooters and sponsors, and assisted with all aspects of the event. A special thanks also to Bob Johnson who rounded up the support of OABA and those that participated squeezed it into an already tight schedule of events for the week. The Florida Federation of Fairs was also well repre- sented with numerous Fair teams. It was also a special treat to have Jessica Underberg, IAFE Chair and her family join us for the event. The winners of the Shootout were as follows: 1st Place
Team – Reithoffer Shows. The High Shooter for the Day was Andy Deggeller with the Deggeller Attractions Team.. And the “best sport of the day” was our “Fartherest from First” place shooter – Steve Siever with IAFE – thanks for being such a good sport! Throughout the day shooters and viewers enjoyed drinks,
snacks, strawberries and a great bar-b-que dinner to finish out the day. It was an event that novice as well
as experienced shooters enjoyed and an event that will definitely be- come a tradition in an effort to bring a great networking opportuni- ty to the Fair industry partners.
It’s great to have great helpers! Thanks for helping with registration: Dan West, Manatee County Fair; Hal Porter & Lee Earl Stokes, Citrus County Fair; Gayle Hart & Martha Leverock, Greater Jacksonville Ag Fair.
