Frank Secretary Maurice A. Gladhill Treasurer If you build it, they will come is a famous quote from the movie, Field of Dreams.

The fair must stay relevant while keeping the traditions alive to compete and appeal to the many options when it comes to where people spend their time and money. J.

Refer to departments for specific dates and times for exhibit entry and release times. 4-H/FFA exhibitors should refer to their respective departments for specific dates and times. All entries must be made in strict compliance with the Premium List in accordance with which all premiums will be awarded. Exhibitors should, therefore, be particular to their stock or articles entered in the classes in which they properly belong. If any exhibitor has made, or caused to be made, a false statement in regard to any animal or article entered, or if any exhibitor shall attempt to interfere with or influence any judge in the awarding of premiums, such exhibitor shall be excluded from competition, and any premium awarded shall be forfeited. No animals or articles can be entered in more than one class, nor take more than one premium, unless specified in the catalog. When there is no competition in a class, premiums will be given at the discretion of the judge. An exhibitor may show any number of animals of the same age, but can win only two premiums under any classification. This applies to all animals in competition. The fair reserves the right to interpret all rules and regulations and resolve any situation which may arise and is not restricted by the lack of or omission of a specific rule or regulation. Every attempt is made for the safe keeping and well-being of exhibits; however the fair does not assume any liability regarding damages. Protests of rules, appeals from a decision of a judge, or appeals to a decision made by an oversight committee dealing with rules and regulations pertaining to the 4-H/FFA shows/exhibits must be submitted in writing to the President of The Great Frederick Fair within 24 hours, a copy of the protest will be immediately forwarded to the 4-H educator.

It is also The Great Frederick Fair's policy to forfeit any and all premiums and prize winnings if for any reason exhibitor dismissal is imposed. Space will be allocated for all dairy and livestock brought to the fair, not the number entered. There will be no refund of entry fees for animals accepted and not brought to the fairgrounds. In the event that entry numbers are too high and barns become overcrowded, the fair has the right to turn away out of state exhibitors first, then out of county exhibitors. Exhibitors' Pass System Persons exhibiting in the Household and Farm and Garden Departments must purchase a Daily Admission Pass for $10 per three items entered, which entitles the exhibitor to a single day admission for each day of fair. The rule also applies to entries of articles made by children. Single day $8 admission passes may be purchased at the admission gates. Passes are not transferable and will be forfeited if presented by anyone other than the person to whom issued. An entry fee of $5 per animal (dairy, goats, sheep and swine); $15 per animal (beef); $10 per animal (draft horse and mule); and $30 per animal (Texas Longhorns); will be charged, payable when the entry is made. Non 4-H/FFA families, farms and/or exhibitors will receive 1 Exhibitor Season Pass with Parking for 1-3 paid entries and 1 additional Exhibitor Season Pass with Parking for 4 or more paid entries. Up to 4 additional season passes may be purchased. The Exhibitor Season Pass with Parking is good for admission onto the grounds and parking in the satellite lots A, B, C, or D only. (This provision does not apply to the Poultry Department). One Livestock Exhibitor parking mirror permit will be issued to each farm/family regardless of the number of entries or exhibitors in the farm/family group. Any 4-H/FFA er wishing to exhibit in the open class shows must pre-register and pay the appropriate entry fees stated above. Each 4-H/FFA exhibitor will receive 1 Exhibitor Season Pass with Parking. No deductions will be made from any premium awarded. Exhibitors of animals must be the owners; of fruit, grain, vegetable, etc., the growers; of manufactured articles, the maker thereof, or a duly authorized agent. Exhibitors of cattle, sheep, goats, swine and alpacas will report to the respective superintendent s office where stalls and pens will be assigned by the superintendent of the department.

Maryland Entries: All Maryland entries must be accompanied by a Maryland Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI) for show, except Poultry, Equine and Rabbits. The Maryland CVI is valid for 120 days for fairs and shows, providing that the status of the herd or animal(s) does not change. The Maryland CVI is a legible record, made on an official Maryland State form, issued by an accredited veterinarian, issued for animals being shown within the state and not crossing a state line, which shows that the animals listed thereon meet the health requirements of the state of Maryland. The Maryland CVI must be filled out, completed and signed by a Maryland accredited veterinarian using the proper selected report on the CVI form. Each animal must be properly identified on the CVI. The veterinarian must select if this document is for interstate travel, fair and exhibition season, equine, sale or other (with explanation).

Self-Certification forms must be filled out within 24 hours prior to loading and presented upon request to the designated representative. A Self Certification is a an official Maryland document signed by the owner/caretaker/transporter stating that the animals presented for exhibition are not showing any signs of, or having recent exposure to (within 21 days) infectious or contagious diseases. Self Certification forms are specie specific for livestock (ruminants, swine), equine, poultry and rabbits. These forms are available on MDA s website: http://mda.maryland.gov/animalhealth/pages/fairs-shows.aspx 4. Test Report Forms. Testing is required for some species, and if so, a test report form will be required unless otherwise documented on the CVI. See Species specific Requirements for details of testing and test report requirements Examples of test reports are shown below: Avian Influenza Testing Report Pullorum-Typhoid Testing Report Coggins Test Report (Equine Infectious Anemia) Tuberculosis Test Report 5. Maryland Poultry Premises Identification All Maryland premises with poultry are required to be registered with the Maryland Department of Agriculture. The Poultry Premise number must be noted on the Test Report or other documentation of Pullorum Typhoid and Avian Influenza NPIP Clean or State H5/H7 Monitored status. 6. Animal Rejection Policy.

Clinical signs include but are not limited to: active lesions of ringworm with resulting loss of hair, sore mouth, sore nose, caseous lymphadenitis, prolapse, mange or multiple warts easily visible without close examination. d. Suspicion of communicable disease is adequate grounds for rejection. Confirmed diagnosis is not required, since timely removal of suspicious animals is required by law to protect the remaining animals. e. Exposed animals may be rejected: If it is believed that there is a potentially serious communicable disease present, all animals originating with the suspect animal may be rejected. Vesicular diseases are of particular concern. f. All decisions are final. g. All parties involved will be notified of all rejections, including exhibit sponsors and supervisors. h. Animal rejections can be made by MDA Animal Health veterinarians or field inspectors, private veterinarians contracted by the show, Maryland Extension employees or individuals designated by the fair or show as a responsible person. All animals except rabbits must have Official Identification to enter exhibitions. In most cases, this means the animal will have to be identified using an official USDA or MD tag that is associated with a registered premise. Official Identification criteria and examples are provided at the end of this document. These requirements specifically affect: 1. Swine: Recognized breed ear notches or tattoos will not be acceptable as official identification in Maryland exhibitions. Swine must have tags bearing official identification. 2.

On these, the judges will make their awards in writing, sign the same and hand to the superintendent, who will immediately deliver the same to the fair. Judges will be careful to award premiums only to such animals or articles for which a premium is offered by the fair. The judges will, in all cases, whether there be competition or not, award only such premiums as they deem proper as the merit of the animal or article warrants. No person shall act as judge upon any animal or article in which he or she may be interested as exhibitor, the agent or employee of an exhibitor or otherwise, and no award shall be valid or will be paid in any case where it shall be proven that any judge is, or was at that time interested as exhibitor, owner or otherwise, in any articles or animals awarded premiums. The judges of animals will have to regard the symmetry, early maturity, size and general qualities characteristic of the breeds which they judge. They may make due allowance for age, feeding, and other circumstances, and the character and condition of the animals. They will not award premiums for bulls, cows, or heifers which seem to have been fattened for processing: the object being to have superior animals for breeding. All animals or articles competing for the same premium must be brought together as the judges may appoint, and the judges may require, at their discretion, exhibitors to change the position, and bring in proximity animals and articles concerning the comparative merits of which they may feel in doubt. Premium ribbons and cards will be attached to animals or articles as soon as the awards are made by the judges, thus: blue to indicate first; red for second; yellow for third; pink for fourth; green for fifth. IAFE National Code of Show Ring Ethics Adopted by the Board of Directors, The Great Frederick Fair 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 agriculture 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 National Code of Show Ring Ethics," fairs and livestock shows may have rules and regulations which they impose on the local, county, state, 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 rules adopted by 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. Protests of rules, appeals from a decision of a judge, or appeals to a decision made by an oversight committee dealing with rules and regulations pertaining to the 4-H/FFA Shows/Exhibits must be submitted in writing to the President of The Great Frederick Fair within 24 hours, a copy of the protest will be immediately forwarded to the 4-H educator. All protests must be accompanied by a $100.00 deposit, refundable if protest/appeal is sustained; and a completed accident/incident report form, which can be obtained at the 4-H office trailer or a club leader. The Great Frederick Fair supports disciplinary policies and procedures that are in effect and imposed through proper guidelines and channels of the 4-H and FFA divisions. It is also The Great Frederick Fair's policy to forfeit any and all premiums and prize winnings if for any reason exhibitor dismissal is imposed. 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 show 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 show management to obtain any specimens of urine,saliva, blood, or other substances from the animals 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 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 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 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 form the animal in question and correctly reflects the condition of the animal at the time the sample was taken, with the burden of 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, conformation, or appearance except external applications of substance to the hoofs or horns

30 Fair of Dreams Country Nights & Carnival Lights The Great Frederick Fair 2017 31 of animals which affect appearance only and except for surgical procedures performed by a duly licenced 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 person 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. Violation of this rule shall subject such individual to disciplinary action. 9. The application of this code of ethics provides for absolute responsibility for an animal's condition by owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or participant whether or not he or she was actually instrumental in or had actual knowledge of the treatment of the animal in contravention of this code of ethics. 10. The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person to have disciplinary action taken by the fair or livestock show for violation of this Code of Show Ring Ethics and any other rules of competition of the fair or livestock show without recourse against the fair or livestock show. The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent that any proceedings or disciplinary action taken by the fair or livestock show may be published with the name of the violator or violators in any publication of the International Association of Fairs and Expositions, including Fairs and Expositions and any special notices to members. 11. The act of entering of an animal in a fair or livestock show is the giving of verification by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer or absolutely responsible person that he or she has read the IAFE National Code of Show Ring Ethics and under stands the consequences of and penalties provided for actions prohibited by the code. It is further a consent that any action which contravenes these rules and is also in violation of federal, state, or provincial statutes, regulations, or rules may be released to appropriate law enforcement authorities with jurisdiction over such infractions. 13 th Annual "Horsepower in the Flesh" Draft Horse Pull at The Great Frederick Fair Friday, September 15, 2017, Rain or Shine 2 Weight Classes Schedule of Events Note: Schedule is subject to change without notice Saturday, September 9 10 a.m. - 1 p.m. 4-H Building Entries Received - Bldg. 12 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. Beer, Wine & Cider Entries Received - Bldg. 14A 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. Home Arts & Crafts Building Entries Received - The Null Bldg.

The Agricultural Business Council, in conjunction with The Great Frederick Fair and the Ag Education PR Committee, is proud to announce the Valentine Family as the 2016 Farm Family of the year. Robert Valentine was involved in showing cattle in 4-H under the prefix of Val-Ayr and although he had no farm to personally milk the cows he had some land and a barn. When his sons Mike and Mark started 4-H, Robert and Madeline bought them their first 4-H projects and their love of good cattle continued to blossom. Vales Pride Farm was started by Mike and his wife Denise in 1989, and they made the move to purchase Denise s grandfathers farm in 1994. Their love of good cattle continued to grow and this allowed the whole Valentine family a place to keep their beloved Ayrshire cows. Today the Valentine family also boards cattle for other 4-H members and adults in the area. Currently they milk 115 head of registered Ayrshires and Holsteins, with the majority being Ayrshires along with raising an additional 75 replacement heifers. The whole family has been very active in the farming community as well as the Catoctin High School sports programs. They have served in leadership roles in the MD Ayrshire Breeders Association, U.S. Ayrshire Breeders Associations, the Grange, Show Like A Pro Dairy Workshop, The Great Frederick Fair, as well as the Thurmont and Emmitsburg Community Show. The years of successful operation and involvement of the whole Valentine family were highlighted recently when the Robert Valentine family was named the 2016 Frederick County Farm Family of the Year by the Agricultural Business Council in conjunction with The Great Frederick Fair and the Agriculture Education PR Committee. Like many dairy farmers, this family has overcome many challenges especially the instability of the dairy economy and learning to deal with the highs and lows of the market. Their ultimate goal is to remain an operating dairy farm for many years and generations to come, however they understand the farm needs other sources of income to help subsidize when the price of fluid milk is not conducive to sustainability. This farm has started to diversify by leasing a small portion of land to a solar company, increasing genetic value of cattle, and having their first Contract with a bull stud. Involved in this six generation farm are Robert and Madeline Valentine, son Mike and wife Denise, Mike s daughter Amanda and Husband Paul Dennis along with their son Bryce, daughter Jessica and her husband Drew Derr and children Patrick and Jet, and youngest daughter Samantha and boyfriend Tyler Fitzwater. Robert and Madeline s youngest son Mark and his wife Jessica along with their children Cadin and Gavin. No matter what the future holds for the farm itself, agriculture will always play a huge part in the lives of each and every member of the Valentine Family.
