4 Introduction Sibley County 4-H/Extension Staff As 4-H staff, we look forward to working with each of you in preparation for and at the Sibley County Fair. If you have any questions, concerns or suggestions, please don t hesitate to contact us. Sibley County Staff: Sibley County Office Information Connie Rettmann, 4-H Program Coordinator th Street, PO Box 207 Sue Bentz, Administrative Assistant Gaylord, MN Maddie Kuehn, Summer Intern Phone: (507) Jason Ertl, Agriculture Educator Fax: (507) FairEntry: What is the Premium Book The Sibley County 4-H Premium Book is published online for 4-H members, parents, and adult volunteers. It is used for planning and registering projects to exhibit at the fair. Please go over this premium book carefully as it contains all rules and other information pertinent to exhibiting as a 4-H member. You are responsible for adhering to the rules herein. 4-H at the County Fair The county fair is one of the highlights of the 4-H year. It is a busy, exciting and rewarding time for many 4-Hers. It is an opportunity for youth to showcase their special efforts, interests and talents by exhibiting projects. To learn by doing you are encouraged to enter exhibits in the project areas in which you are interested. Your county fair experience should be a fun and enjoyable learning experience. You should think seriously about what you want to learn from preparing your project exhibit. Hopefully you will be rewarded accordingly. However, the ribbon or recognition is only secondary; the skill and knowledge of the project are what will really help you down the road in life. Participate in the county fair with a receptive and learning frame of mine. If you set as your goals to learn new skills and knowledge, you will always be a winner. Preparing for the Fair: As you work on project activities and prepare exhibits for the fair, remember to prepare yourself too. Conference judging includes both what you learned in preparing the exhibit and the exhibit itself. Think about your answers to questions that may be asked, such as: Why did you choose this exhibit? What steps did you go through in preparing it? What decision and choices did you make? How much did it cost in time, effort and materials? If you were to do this again, would you change anything? Was the result worth doing? What did you learn from this? What do you plan to do next year in this project area? Think about questions you might ask the judge, such as: Could I have done this differently? How could this be changed or improved? What other things could I do? Remember also that competition has some risks, everyone cannot be the top winner. Others may have had more skills, time or money to spend on the exhibit. You compete against these unknowns. If your exhibit helped you learn something you wanted to learn about in your project and if it is something you or your family can use, then you are a winner no matter what the results of the competition! Conference Judging for Static Exhibits: You will meet one-on-one with a judge to discuss your exhibit. You will have the chance to tell the judge about yourself and your exhibit. You will be awarded a ribbon (blue, red or white) based 50% on the exhibit and 50% on your knowledge. Educational/Science exhibits are based on 25% exhibit quality, 25% educational value and 50% exhibitor knowledge. Grand Champion and Reserve Champion will also be given to outstanding exhibits at the end of the day. Cloverbuds receive a Cloverbud participation ribbon. Decision of the judge is final and may not be appealed Sibley County Fair Premium Book Page 4

5 Animal Science Judging: 4-Hers and their animals are judged differently than general projects. The judges will be looking mainly at the animal being shown. The quality of the animal should be a reflection of your care and training of the animal. You will be awarded a ribbon (blue, red or white) based on the quality of your animal. Grand Champion and Reserve Champion will also be given to outstanding animals.

7 Code of Conduct Code of Conduct for 4-H Members 4-H members are not only representing themselves, but Sibley County 4-H, their club, and family. It is expected that you act in a responsible manner. Any 4-H member found in violation of any conduct matters will be sent home immediately. All 4-H members will abide by the MN 4-H Code of Conduct which can be found at: Code of Conduct for Parents/Volunteers All parents also sign a Code of Conduct upon enrollment of their children. The Minnesota 4-H Code of Conduct applies and will be enforced with 4-H members, 4-H parents, and 4-H volunteers as follows: o While participating in or attending a 4-H sponsored program (e.g. club meeting, activity, event) o At the county fair while participating in or attending a 4-H event or while on premises used for 4-H purposes (e.g. show ring, exhibit building, barn, food stand). o At the State Fair during their child s assigned encampment or assigned volunteer responsibility. Grievance Policy Minnesota 4-H has a formal 4-H Grievance Process. The 4-H grievance process provides a vehicle by which to respond to 4-H member's concerns relating to their 4-H program participation. A grievance may be filed and a local volunteer grievance committee convened to address rule violations and alleged wrongdoing. A grievance committee will not be convened for the following situations: a) decisions made by judges, which are final; b) missed deadlines which are covered through the "one-time member exemption process;" and, c) code of conduct related violations which will be addressed by staff according to an established process. Information on the process can be found at: Exhibit Rules Eligibility Meeting exhibition requirements of the local County Fair Board/Agricultural Association and the 4-H Youth Development Program from 4-H exhibit entry day through release time: If exhibition requirements are not met (and permission is not granted by 4-H Program Staff), youth will not be eligible for all show related premiums, awards, auction and participation in the state event. Approved early release is an exception to the rule and becomes a 4-H staff and fair board decision based on each situation. Members must be enrolled in the 4-H program by May 15 th to be eligible for placing above a blue, including special awards and State Fair trips. All grade levels for 4-H members pertain to the grade just completed prior to the County Fair. Members exhibiting in the livestock areas must have met the County/State animal identification deadline requirements and the member must have completed the LQA training within the last 3 fair seasons to show livestock at the State Fair. All members must have their online fair registrations in FairEntry.com completed by Friday, July 6 th in order to be eligible for any placing above a blue, to be eligible for a State Fair trip, or eligible for the ribbon auction. All work on projects entered must be done by the 4-H member and completed during the current 4-H year, unless otherwise noted. Absentee judging: Minnesota 4-H Youth Development believes that participation in competitive events enhances the depth and breadth of the learning and leading experience. Minnesota 4-H works to provide an equitable and uniform opportunity for participation in competitive events for its members across the state. If a 4-H member is unable to participate in the judging process, they may request permission for absentee judging. Information on absentee judging can be found at Sibley County Fair Premium Book Page 7

8 Judging experiences for youth with disabilities or injuries: A 4-H member unable to participate in judging by himself/herself may request permission for a judging assistant to be with the 4-H member during judging. More information can be found at It is highly recommended that the 4-H member attend a minimum of three 4-H club meetings with the exceptions for school and other 4-H events. Project Requirements Floor space for any exhibit should not exceed 20 square feet. If your exhibit exceeds this space limitation, contact the Extension Office. Poster may not exceed 22 wide x 28 high. They may be smaller. Three-dimensional displays may not exceed 12 deep x 24 wide x 36 high, except where specifically stated. (Center back 24 wide x 36 high, right and left wings each 12 wide x 36 high) All exhibits must be labeled with name, club and county. If the exhibit has multiple pieces, each piece needs to be labeled (1 of 3, 2 of 3, 3 of 3). Exhibits are entered and displayed at the risk of the exhibitor. The 4-H program will exercise care to protect them. However, the office cannot accept responsibility for loss or damage due to the conditions imposed by viewers, the arrangement of the buildings in which displays are housed and the number of exhibits. 4-Hers who have exhibits of great sentimental and or monetary value should carefully consider whether such exhibits should be exposed to the hazards of the fair. You may have a booklet or poster showing the project work to leave at the fair instead of the valued project itself. Procedure for Entering Club Projects Club leaders will Sue Bentz at bentz002@umn.edu with their CLUB exhibit registrations. Two youth from the club need to be present for the club banner, club scrapbook and club community pride project judging, explaining to the judge about the club project. Club judging will be done at the same time as individual judging. Club flower pots are judged by the fair board. Insurance Insurance is paid by the Sibley County 4-H Federation for all active 4-H members and volunteers and covers Sibley County active 4-H members and volunteers at all 4-H sponsored events. Premiums Exhibitors will receive premium money based on their ribbon placings. These are sponsored by the Sibley County Ag Association. Premiums will be given out on Sunday from 3:30 5:30 p.m. in the 4-H Exhibit Building. Champion, Reserve Champion and special award ribbons receive no extra premium. Thank you to the Sibley County Ag Association for paying our 4-H premiums! Cloverbud Policy The Cloverbud program is a part of the Center for 4-H Youth Development statewide program and reflects the Center s mission to foster positive child development. Cloverbuds are any 4-H er that is between the Kindergarten and 2 nd Grade. Members in the 3 rd Grade have the choice of becoming a full-fledged 4-H er or remaining a Cloverbud for one more year. Cloverbuds participating in livestock judging at the Sibley County Fair will be judged in their own category. According to Minnesota 4-H Cloverbud policy: When animals and Cloverbuds are together at 4-H activities, such as fairs and shows, an adult/responsible person will be in control of the animal. (Control means to handle and/or lead the animal). Cloverbuds will not be allowed to be in control at any time. A parent/responsible person* must be in control at all times in and out of the show ring. This includes feeding, watering, and changing bedding for the animal Sibley County Fair Premium Book Page 8

9 A parent and responsible person* will be with the Cloverbud at all times when in the presence of an animal or when using equipment that is potentially dangerous. Scissors, saws, knives, needles, rockets, kitchen appliances, etc. are examples. Cloverbuds should not operate power driven equipment as a part of activities (sewing machines, power drills, small engines, clippers, etc.). If these tools are need for a project, a parent/responsible person* will operate the tool for the child. Cloverbuds will wear appropriate safety helmets when riding horse or bicycles. See the Horse section for further Cloverbud Horse exhibit rules. According to the Minnesota State 4-H Dog Policy, Cloverbuds are not allowed to participate in dog training. Parents and volunteers are expected to adhere to this policy at ALL times in ALL 4-H sponsored events. The Cloverbud program is a non-competitive program, which means Cloverbuds will receive a Cloverbud Ribbon at the County Fair. They may exhibit ONE item per project area. They are ineligible to participate in the auction. *A responsible person is defined as: adult leaders, teen leaders, parents or other adults who may appropriately assist with the group. Animal Science Rules 1. All beef, dairy, dog, goat, horse, lama, rabbit, sheep and swine shown in 4-H livestock shows must have the required State 4-H ID system, eartag and/or tattoo. Animals ID data must be submitted online, arrive in the Extension office, or be postmarked no later than May 15 (with the exception of Market Beef due Feb. 15). 4-H members with late forms will not be eligible for a State Fair Trip, special awards or extra premiums with that livestock specie. 2. All animals exhibited must be owned solely by the member, member s family or leased by agreement. The family includes the 4-Her s parents or guardians and siblings living together as a family unit. The definition of family include an extended family where the animals may be owned by grandparents with the 4-Her s parents actively involved with and working on the farm. Animals owned in partnership with non-family members (as defined above) must be leased and follow guidelines within the lease agreement. Registered animals, not leased, must be registered in the exhibitor s name and/or the exhibitor s family name. ALL MARKET animals must be owned. 3. Leased Animals: (beef, dairy, and dairy goats). Beef and dairy goats - Leased animals cannot be shown at any other shows except 4-H State Fair Show, 4-H County Fair Show or a special County Fair Show emphasizing fitting and showing. The 4-H leased animal also cannot be shown by anyone other than the 4-H member. If you have leased more than one animal that you do not plan on exhibiting at the County Fair, that animal may be shown at open classes or other shows. Dairy - The state dairy committee has broadened its interpretation of the lease rule. Leased animals may now be shown at local and regional shows if they are led by the 4-H member leasing the animal. Leased animals are not eligible to be shown by anyone at the Minnesota State Fair (Open Class and FFA), the Minnesota State Holstein Show (Junior or Open Shows), or the Minnesota State Red and White Show. 4. LQA: Any State Fair eligible 4-Her who participates in a 4-H livestock (Beef, Dairy, Goat, Llama, Poultry, Rabbit, Sheep and Swine) show at the Sibley County Fair and Minnesota State Fair must be certified under the Livestock Quality Assurance program. NEW: A three hour, in-person training or a one-hour online training qualify. All certifications must be completed by the time of final registrations at the county fair. 5. All grooming of livestock at the fair, including clipping, trimming and manipulation of the hair/wool (such as blocking on sheep, pulling up hair on beef and working up top lines on dairy) must be clearly done by the exhibitor, members of the immediate family, any other registered Minnesota 4-H member or a livestock resource* chosen by the 4-H family. Immediate family members are defined as being parents, step parents, legal guardians, grandparents, brothers or sisters. A livestock resource is defined as someone who is working with the 4-Her/4-H family to help them learn management and fitting and grooming skills in their project area. A livestock resource identified person would be allowed to work with the 4-Her and their family during the fitting and grooming process to guide and teach these skills. The 4-Her exhibiting the animal should be present and involved in the fitting process at the county fair. The livestock resource person can be used by 4-Hers that are not yet State Fair age eligible and also by first and second year project members. Any exhibitor found in violation of this rule may show for ribbon only and will not be eligible for any livestock awards or premiums including championships, State Fair trips, auction and showmanship. Enforcement of this rule will be the responsibility of the County Extension Staff with consultation from livestock leaders. 4-H members are encouraged to do as much grooming as possible Sibley County Fair Premium Book Page 9

Not every eligible class or lot will have a Champion and/or Reserve Champion awarded. 14. Any 4-H animal may be exhibited in Open Class if there is at least one regular open class animal in the class. 15. Trip winners to the State Fair and State Horse Show will be selected at the County Fair. 16. All beef, sheep, and swine animals must be identified with the statewide eartag. Failure to have the eartag intact at the fair results in forfeit of special awards, trips, premium money, and right to sell at the livestock auction. Swine must also be identified with the universal ear notching system to be eligible for State Fair. 17. All rabbit exhibits have to have ear tattoos prior to the fair. 18. Any animal cannot be shown as a pet if shown in another 4-H project. It is encouraged that animals be shown in species area first; pet area second. 19.

Animals without proper registration papers (crossbreds and grades) must be shown as commercial. 20. Stalling of animals will be done the Friday prior to the fair, following fair clean-up. Any club found to be in violation of stalling rules will be eliminated from herdsmanship competition. 21. Crocks supplied by the Fair Board will be used by all poultry and rabbit exhibitors. 22. All animal health regulations will be in effect as stipulated by the Minnesota Board of Animal Health and the County Agricultural Society. IAFE National Code of Show Ring Ethics (International Association of Fairs and Expositions) Exhibitors of animals at livestock shows shall at all times deport themselves with honesty and good sportsmanship. Their conduct in this competitive environment shall always reflect the highest standards of honor and dignity to promote the advancement of agricultural education. This code applies to junior as well as open class exhibitors who compete in structured classes of competition. This code applies to all livestock offered in any event at a livestock show. In addition to the IAFE Code of Show Ring Ethics, fairs and livestock shows may have rules and regulations which they impose on the local, county, state and provincial and national levels. All youth leaders working with junior exhibitors are under an affirmative responsibility to do more than avoid improper conduct or questionable acts. Their moral values must be so certain and positive that those younger and more pliable will be influenced by their fine example. Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers and absolutely responsible persons who violate the code of ethics will forfeit premiums, awards, and auction proceeds and shall be prohibited from future exhibition in accordance with the rules adopted by the respective fairs and livestock shows. Exhibitors who violate this code of ethics demean the integrity of all livestock exhibitors and should be prohibited from competition at all livestock shows in the United States and Canada. The following is a list of guidelines for all exhibitors and all livestock in competitive events: 1. All exhibitors must present, upon request of fair and livestock show officials, proof of ownership, length of ownership and age of all animals entered. Misrepresentation of ownership, age, or any facts relating thereto is prohibited. 2. Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers, or absolutely responsible persons shall provide animal health certificates from licensed veterinarians upon request by fair or livestock who officials. 3. Junior exhibitors are expected to care for and groom their animals while at fairs or livestock shows. 4. Animals shall be presented to show events where they will enter the food chain free of violative drug residues. The act of entering an animal in a livestock show is the giving of consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer and/or absolutely responsible person for 2018 Sibley County Fair Premium Book Page 10

11 show management to obtain any specimens of urine, saliva, blood, or other substances from the animal to be used in testing. Animals not entered in an event which culminates with the animal entering the food chain shall not be administered drugs other than in accordance with applicable federal, state and provincial statutes, regulations and rules. Livestock shall not be exhibited if the drugs administered in accordance with federal, state and provincial statues, regulations and rules affect the animal s performance or appearance at the event. If the laboratory report on the chemical analysis of saliva, urine, blood, or other sample taken from livestock indicates the presence of forbidden drugs or medication, this shall be prima facie evidence such substance has been administered to the animal either internally or externally. It is presumed that the sample of urine, saliva, blood, or other substance tested by the approved laboratory to which it is sent, is the one taken from the animal in question, its integrity is preserved and all procedures of said collection and preservation, transfer to the laboratory and analysis of the sample are correct and accurate and the report received from the laboratory pertains to the sample taken from the animal in question and correctly reflects the condition of the animal at the time the sample was taken, with the burden on the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person to prove otherwise. At any time after an animal arrives on the fair or livestock show premises, all treatments involving the use of drugs and/or medications for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal shall be administered by a licensed veterinarian. 5. Any surgical procedure or injection of any foreign substance or drug or the external application of any substance (irritant, counterirritant, or similar substance) which could affect the animal s performance or alter its natural contour, confirmation, or appearance, except external applications of substances to the hoofs or horns of animals which affect appearance only and except for surgical procedures performed by a duly licensed veterinarian for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal, is prohibited. 6. The use of showing and/or handling practices or devices such as striking animals to cause swelling, using electrical contrivance, or other similar practices are not acceptable and are prohibited. 7. Direct criticism or interference with the judge, fair or livestock show management, other exhibitors, breed representatives, or show officials before, during, or after the competitive event is prohibited. In the furtherance of their official duty, all judges, fair and livestock show management, or other show officials shall be treated with courtesy, cooperation, and respect and no person shall direct abusive or threatening conduct toward them. 8. No owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible personal shall conspire with another person or persons to intentionally violate this code of ethics or knowingly contribute or cooperate with another person or persons either by affirmative action or inaction to violate this code of ethics.
