A WORD ABOUT SPORTSMANSHIP

Celebrating the accomplishments of our youth, the spirit of our community and the bounty of our agriculture is a long standing tradition at the Lancaster County Super Fair. Lasting friendships and memories are often based on positive experiences and add to the strength of our community.

All of us have a stake in making the 2012 fair the best ever. Practicing good sportsmanship and making ethical decisions isn’t just for our youth. Parents, volunteers, and officials are expected to practice good sportsmanship and make ethical decisions as well. Why? Because our youth learn from adults. While watching adult actions and listening, youth learn how to deal with conflict, disappointment, and competition.

So, during the 2012 Super Fair, let’s practice good sportsmanship and demonstrate honest and ethical behavior. Everyone’s effort will teach our youth the right thing to do and make this fair a real “Super Fair” for all to enjoy.
