Judges change every year, according to Dahm. "We have various professional ap­ praisers and registered dealers as judges for this event," she says. The McHenry County Fair antique show is "noted" for open judging, according to Dahm. "On the first day of the fair, the public can come and watch the judging in Building D," she says. Judging stares about 9 a.m. and goes on until finished, usually in the evening. In­ terested people can learn from the judg­ ing, Dahm says. "The judges are like kids in a candy shop ... they really enjoy the exhibits," Dahm says. Last year's "best of show" was a Peking on show, which are locked up overnight," Dahm emphasized. She says a security guard watches the exhibits during the night in the locked building and "sitters" watch them throughout the day. "We never leave the antiques unattend­ ed," Dahm says. During fair days, the antiques are displayed within a wire cage -- easily viewed but untouchable. "We want exhibitors to know that their pieces are safe and treated as precious items," says Dahm. Exhibits are limited, and a piece that has been entered in the county fair event one year cannot be entered for another three years.

"Everybody loved it," she says. . The judge for this year's show is Ix>r- raine Weisz of Woodstock. "She's travelled the world in search of antique items and knowledge,", says Dahm. The county fair event is considered "a good quality antique show. We have no junk ... always nice things. Every year there's something we haven't seen before," Dahm says. She explains that people who enter the event aren't necessarily seeking a prize. "The idea is to enter a piece for others to enjoy," she sayis. Superintendents of the antique event are very conscious of security. "No names are included with the pieces • - r - - ting excited about the fair. 1 really look forward to the sliow and seeing the pieces entered," says Dahm. The women involved ir. the event pay tribute to their husbands "for helping out." - Dahm says when Szlachta started the antique division of the fair in 1973, her hus­ band built the wire cage to house the exhibits. "Now Dr. Szlachta ana my husband set up the wired area, and our husbands also set up the special lighting," she says. This is Dahm's fifth year working with the antique division. "Because of Margaret's (Szlachta) fine lead, the antique division has become an integral part of the fair. It's popular and high class," says Dahm. CRYSTAL LAKE WOODSTOCK CARE CENTER,.™ 111 S.
