Morgan County Expo General Rules and Regulations

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

Persons desiring to become exhibitors at the Morgan County Expo, whether for competition or not, should carefully read the following Rules and Regulations, which if strictly observed, will alleviate any annoyance either to the officers of the fair or to exhibitors. Please refer to departments for specific rules and regulations.

All entries must be made in strict compliance with the Premium List in accordance with which all awards are given. Exhibitors should, therefore, be particular to their 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 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.

Articles can be entered in more than one class, or take more than one premium, unless specified for in the catalog. When there is no competition in a class, premiums will be given at the discretion of the judge.

The Expo 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 the exhibit; however the Expo does not assume any liability regarding damages.

There will be no refund of entry fees, for entries not brought to the expo grounds.

Every article upon the Expo grounds shall be under the control of the Fair Association during the Expo and while every precaution will be taken for the safekeeping of the exhibits, the Fair Association will in no case be responsible for any loss or damage that may occur.

The Fair Association reserves the right to cancel any event, contest or race without notice, prior to the actual holding of the event, without liability except for the return of any entry fee.

The Fair Association defers to its Board of Directors the final and absolute right to interpret these rules and regulations and arbitrarily settle and determine all matters in regard thereto and to add or to amend them as they may be deemed advisable.

Exhibits All proper care will be taken of articles on exhibition, but the Expo will not be responsible for loss or damage by fire, accident or irregular entry.
