How to Win a Ribbon at the 2008 Arizona State Fair  
Take the first step in your quest  
 
Phoenix (July 9, 2008) –Ever dream of decorating your mantel with a blue ribbon or showing off your 
handiwork for all to see?  Whether you’re 4, 104, or any age in between, here’s your chance to make your 
dreams a reality.  The 2008 Arizona State Fair Exhibitor Handbook is now available online, at county 
outreach offices statewide and at all Phoenix Public Libraries (see list below). The Exhibitor Handbook 
provides extensive details on all of the Fair’s many competitions and available prizes, as well as 
directions on how to enter. Categories include 4-H, smallstock and livestock; agriculture; creative crafts 
& collections; culinary arts (including canned goods and beer & wine); fine arts; floriculture; mineral & 
jewelry; photography; and student art & technology. 
 
Anyone can compete in the Fair – all ages and abilities are welcome. Youngsters and young of heart, 
beginners and seasoned pros alike, can showcase their talents in a variety of areas and vie for a coveted 
state-awarded blue ribbon. The Exhibitor Handbook explains all the requirements for entry and serves as 
a resource for closing dates, receiving dates, judging dates and release dates for the entries.  
 
Don’t delay, as entry deadlines begin September 10 for Creative Crafts, Culinary Arts, Fine Arts, 
Photography and Student Art & Technology Arts. 
 
Exhibitor Handbooks can be found at 4-H County Extension Offices, County Fair offices, at select public 
libraries statewide and online at: http://www.azstatefair.com/exhibitors/exhibitorhandbook.aspx 
 
Supplies of printed books are limited and go fast, so hurry and pick up a copy. Your quest for a blue 
ribbon requires time, talent, tenacity and, of course, an Exhibitor Handbook, so take the first step.  It’s 
time for you to show off and shine at the Arizona State Fair.  
 
The 124th  annual Arizona State Fair, running from October 10 to November 2 (closed on Mondays), will 
host a variety of fun-filled attractions, activities and rides for all ages at its traditional location at 19th 
Avenue and McDowell Road in Phoenix.
