INSURANCE FUND<br />
1. A resolution was adopted on April 2, 1949, by<br />
the Hardin County Agricultural Society to provide<br />
an insurance fund for protection of<br />
sheep, cattle, hogs, rabbits, goats, dairy beef<br />
feeders, dairy steers and poultry entered for<br />
show and sale at the Hardin County Fair.<br />
2. It is further provided that this fund shall be<br />
kept separate from all other funds and shall<br />
be used to pay losses from sickness, accident<br />
or fire at the rate of 80 percent of appraised<br />
value. In the case of dead animals, the Insurance<br />
Fund will pay 80 percent of the Sale Average<br />
Price without Champions. In the case of<br />
sickness or accidents, animals will be taken<br />
only on order of the Superintendents or Veterinarians.<br />
Payment for these animals will be<br />
80 percent of the difference between Sale Average<br />
Price without Champions minus the<br />
market price the day of the Sale. Stock on<br />
which claims are paid shall pay Insurance<br />
Fund as if sold.<br />
3. It is further provided that in case the losses<br />
are greater than the amount held in said Insurance<br />
Fund, then said Fund shall be prorated<br />
and paid on claims at whatever percent<br />
allowable and the Hardin County Agricultural<br />
Society be no further liable.<br />
4. The Junior Fair Livestock Sale Claims Committee<br />
will decide all claims.<br />
On May 5, 2001, a resolution was adopted<br />
by HCAS to separate the interest accrued<br />
from the insurance amount less claims paid.<br />
Insurance Balance 11/30/12 – $17,610.90.<br />
Interest Accrued 11/30/12 – $15,571.03.<br />
