<p><strong>64th Anniversary Show<br />
1947-2011</strong></p>
<p>In 1947, it was decided to have a  three day celebration of parades,  concessions, games, contests and  publicity to promote the town of  Orofino and the county of Clearwater. The activities held that  first  year were a big parade, a knot hole derby (race for boys driving  cars  they built themselves from wood and scraps), a model airplane  contest,  kid&#8217;s parade, fiddler&#8217;s contest and a lumberjack show.</p>
<p>The Lumberjack Show was  started with the idea of furthering our  lumbering industry and way of  life, along with that of farming. This  was going to be carried out by  contests that showed the arts and skills  of the logger, especially those  skills that were dying out due to  mechanization.</p>
<p>On Sept. 28, 1947, the  first Lumberjack Day was held with   approximately 4,000 people watching the events of chopping, bucking, two   man sawing and a team pulling contest. It was a huge success and   changed the county fair as it had been. Thus the  idea was born and has  been continued for 59 years with many changes  being made along the way,  but the general idea of promoting the forest  industry and the loggers&#8217;  way of life is still upheld.</p>
<p><strong>Held in Orofino, Idaho</strong></p>
