Superintendents

1. It is the responsibility of the superintendent(s) of each department to inform the judge(s) of specific departmental rules and regulations concerning the issuing of awards.

2. It is the responsibility of the superintendent(s) of each department to see that all show classes are properly entered and distributed.

3. Under authority from the COMMITTEE, each superintendent will have the final right of determination as to the disposal of exhibits not claimed by the exhibitor. (INDOOR EXHIBITS)

4. A superintendent may, under the direction of EXPO Executive Board, reserve the right to reject or dismiss any entry he or she feels is unworthy of competition, or poses a health or safety threat to any persons, property, or livestock. Under direction of executive board.

5. All superintendents are to be afforded the respect to which they are entitled. Any superintendent, WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE DIRECTLY AFFILIATED WITH A PARTICULAR DEPARTMENT, has authority to enforce all rules when they see fit.

Judges & Judging:

Judges are responsible for reading and understanding all general and special rules within each department, division, or class in which they are to serve.

All evaluations are initially made based on the Danish System of judging. As EXPO is a learning event, at no time will a judge fail to bestow an award. All comments to exhibitors should be made in as constructive a manner as possible.

Judges shall report to the superintendent any exhibitor, leader, parent, or other person who in any way interferes or shows disrespect toward them during or after adjudication of a class. The superintendent will have the option of demanding a formal apology from the offender directly to the judge and/or excluding the exhibitor or offending person from further participation in EXPO.

The decision of the judge shall be final except in the event of fraud or misrepresentation, not discovered at the time of award. In cases of fraud or misrepresentation, the offending exhibit will be removed from competition and all lower placements will advance one award if the award was based on the American System of judging. Additional implications are noted in Code of Conduct.

Grand and Reserve Champion and Yavapai Bred & Fed awards will only be awarded if the exhibitor and/or animal have received a BLUE ribbon. Additionally, the following guidelines will apply: All entries will be judged on the Danish System of awards. Entries may be placed in blue, red, or white

ribbon categories. The Grand and Reserve Champion awards for conformation (market and breeding) and showmanship will be

given (at the established prize levels) when there are 3 or more entries in a class. If there are 2 or fewer entries in a class, the Grand and Reserve Champion awards will be given, however they will be at a reduced prize level. Note: this applies to both large livestock and small stock.

The showmanship contest will be judged on the exhibitor’s ability to show his/her animal to its advantage and his/her knowledge in handling, fitting and selecting animals for production and show. The judge may also ask questions pertaining to the project. Separate classes will be held for judging novice, junior, and senior showmanship.

All exhibitors, parents, leaders, advisors and agents will abide by the International Association of Fairs and

Expositions National Code of Show Ring Ethics as well as the 4-H State and County policies and procedures.

Exhibitor Rules:

1. Exhibitors of livestock must keep their area of the barn (including small stock that remain for the duration of EXPO), neat and clean. All litter is to be disposed of in appropriate areas designated for that purpose.

2. Every effort will be made to protect and care for entries, but in no case will the EXPO Committee, including the officers, superintendents and other volunteers be responsible for any damage or loss that may occur. Each exhibitor must furnish his or her own food and water equipment. All exhibits will be cared for during the hours of EXPO. If extra care is needed contact the appropriate Superintendent.

3. Exhibitors must FIT and SHOW their own animals with help from other members from Yavapai County, junior leaders and teen leaders only. IMPORTANT! Parents and leaders are reminded that the club members must do all work pertaining to cleanliness of stall/pen and grooming/washing areas and the educational exhibits. The educational value of such activities is lost if members are not allowed to be responsible for their part in the activities. Exhibitors may be disqualified from a showmanship event if this rule is violated, excluding situations that are deemed unsafe.

4. Exhibitors may only use appliances (clippers, blowers, heaters, fans, etc.), which are properly grounded and meet UL specifications.

5. In order to keep the show moving on time and for the safety of all exhibitors and their animals, we will be enforcing a clean aisle policy 15 minutes prior to the start of a respective show animal’s show hours until the end of the show. All items found in the aisles will be gathered up and placed in the designated “Lost and Found” area of the barn/tent.

6. It is the responsibility of the exhibitor to ensure that their animal(s) are properly fed and watered each day before 8am and after 5pm.

7. All exhibitors are required to thoroughly clean their stall/pen area before being permitted to checkout. This includes market animals sold at auction.

Exhibits:

1. Market division entries may not be leased; however, it is acceptable to lease breeding division entries. All exhibits must be the bona fide property of the exhibitor or under an approved lease agreement.

2. Exhibitors of breeding and/or small stock may be asked to show proof of ownership. 3. Large market livestock exhibitors will be permitted to tag up to four animals per species, but may exhibit only two. 4. Exhibitors wishing to sell in the auction must participate in BOTH the conformation and showmanship class for

that species. 5. Exhibitors must use his/her market animal for showmanship. If the exhibitor does not have a market animal

entered in that species, he/she may use a prospect or breeding animal that is entered in EXPO. Showmanship animals may not be a mature male breeding animal or a sow/gilt over 8 months old.

6. Yavapai County EXPO tags will be the official tags for the show and will correspond with the exhibitor numbers. Notify a department superintendent immediately if an animal loses its tag or it becomes unreadable.

7. Animals must be kept in pens provided or in their tie stalls. In extenuating circumstances, speak to the superintendent if any exceptions need to be made.

8. Exhibitors are required to provide their own bedding.

9. Release information: All remaining livestock will be released Saturday following the auction. The exhibitor must check out with the appropriate superintendent before removing any animals from EXPO grounds.

Weigh-in:

Each market animal and/or meat pen will be weighed-in from 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. on designated day. See EXPO Dates and Deadlines. Animals will be placed in classes after weighing in on the official scale at check-in. 1. Large livestock market entries that do not make minimum weight as specified in their market division will be

automatically entered in the prospect/feeder class for that species. Though ineligible for auction, prospect/feeder animals are eligible for showmanship classes.

2. In disputed cases, exhibitors may request a re-weigh, provided the animal has not left the scale area (defined as the area under tent). There will be no forced watering or feeding allowed. No wet animals, unshorn lambs, or blankets of any kind will be allowed on animals as they are weighed.

3. Members are responsible for calculating shrinkage on their market animals.

Vet Check:

1. It is the exhibitor’s responsibility to disclose all concerns.

2. After check-in, all health concerns are to be addressed by the show veterinarian and superintendent (grounds for dismissal).

Health Rules:

1. All animals must be in good health and condition to be entered into EXPO. Visibly sick animals or those showing

signs of active internal or external parasites or fungal infections WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO ENTER THE SHOW GROUNDS. Market animals that, in the opinion of the superintendent, show evidence of poor physical condition WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO SELL, BUT MAY BE ALLOWED TO COMPETE IN SHOWMANSHIP CLASSES.

2. The USDA Wholesome Meat Act applies to all animals sold for slaughter. The Act and COMMITTEE rules require the following:

Drug label directions must be followed - including withdrawal periods.

(a) By signing the Entry Form(s), the exhibitor attests that their animal(s) will be drug free at weigh-in, and will remain so until it is released for slaughter.

(b) If it shall become necessary to administer medication to an animal while on EXPO grounds, it must be done by a licensed veterinarian and reported immediately to the superintendent(s) in charge. If withdrawal period exceeds projected slaughter date, exhibitor must take animal home and care for it until it is safe and legal to slaughter for human consumption.

All market animals are PROHIBITED from being dipped.

Exhibitors whose exhibition animal is slaughtered and the carcass is condemned for drug or chemical residues, will forfeit all class, sale, and premium monies and/or awards, and may be subject to criminal investigation and/or charges. In addition, exhibitors found guilty of violating this rule will be prohibited from participation at any future EXPO and/or any other livestock exhibition.

Classification:

1. Registration papers will not be a requirement to exhibit breeding livestock at EXPO, but a seasonal pass is expected.

2. Exhibitors should check with their project leader/advisor or other knowledgeable person as to the correct breed classification to which their entry belongs.

3. If members or leaders need help over and beyond the help of the specific Superintendent, call the Cooperative Extension Office 928-445-6590 ext. 229.

Protests & Appeals:

1. No protest or appeal based on charges of incompetency of the judge will be considered, 2. Protests regarding incidents directly related to EXPO or actions of one or more members of the Committee may be

formally submitted in writing within 5 hours after the incident/decision, provided such protest is accompanied by a $50.00 fee if the protest is lodged by a 4-H or FFA member. A $100.00 fee will be charged if any non-member lodges the protest.

3. Protest must state plainly the cause of the complaint or appeal, with specific charges and recital of the facts relied upon or the rule violated, naming witnesses and their addresses by whom proofs are to be made. No protests of weights will be allowed.

4. If the protest thus lodged is found to be valid by a majority of the Executive Committee (or in the case of a complaint lodged against the Executive Committee, a majority of The Committee members present), the fee/deposit shall be returned to the person or persons lodging the protest. If the protest thus lodged is found to be invalid, the person or persons shall forfeit said fee

Hardship Clause:

In the event that a 4-H or FFA member’s project animal dies or is severely injured prior to or during EXPO that member

may borrow an animal already ID’d and entered for showmanship purposes only. This opportunity is experiential only

and the 4-H or FFA member may only be eligible for Danish in showmanship.

Deceased Market Animals

On occasion, members’ livestock die after the ear tagging and/or market live stock registration process is completed.

As they have been active in their project areas and learning throughout the project, this ruling is meant to apply to

those situations where a member in good standing who has previously completed the registration process for the

current year EXPO has an animal die can still enter a market entry. The following conditions must be met:

2. Large market livestock entries must have an I.D. Form on file at the Cooperative Extension office. 3. Exhibitors must participate in both conformation and showmanship for that species in order to sell through the auction. 4. All ribbon awards: blue, red, and white, will be permitted to sell. No private treaty or barn sales are permitted during the

EXPO auction. All private treaty sales must be conducted off the EXPO grounds after the EXPO Auction. 5. Single Sale Rule: The Yavapai County EXPO is conducted in accordance with policies and guidelines established by the

University of Arizona which state that each 4-H member may exhibit their project animal in multiple counties and/or statewide events. The rules for EXPO will remain the same as in the past. Exhibitors may sell one large livestock, one small stock, and/or one indoor exhibit during the live auction. Market and/or breeding animals may be sold. Exhibitors are required to sell ALL Grand or Reserve Champion market beef, lamb, swine, or goats. For the 4-H year 2019/2020 the single sale rule continues to be lifted. Lifting of the “Single Sale Rule” means that a 4-H or FFA youth may sell at multiple in-county livestock auctions in any given year.

6. Each exhibitor’s highest placing blue, red, or white ribbon animal will be listed in the sale catalog unless a Withdrawal Request has been submitted no later than 5:00 pm Friday of EXPO. Exhibitors may substitute a lower placing entry at the same time the Withdrawal Request is submitted, provided all other sale rule provisions have been met.

7. Under no circumstances will an exhibitor whose sole sale prospect dies or becomes sick or injured to the point of being unable to show or has been otherwise termed as unfit, be allowed to sell in the Yavapai County EXPO Livestock Auction.

8. Market animals that are deemed ineligible for sale at the EXPO Livestock Auction MAY BE REMOVED FROM THE EXPO GROUNDS UPON OBTAINING A RELEASE FROM THE APPROPRIATE SUPERINTENDENT.

9. The Yavapai County EXPO Committee does not guarantee the sale of any animal. Every effort will be made to market each animal while in the auction ring.

10. Animals are NOT to be costumed or decorated in any way. Only approved animal show products may be used. Any animal that is determined to not be in a clean condition will be refused entry until it has been properly cleaned. Upon being properly cleaned, every attempt will be made to market the animal at the next opening after having been re-presented to the ring gate keeper. If the last animal has been marketed prior to your returning with your livestock being in a clean condition, you will have forfeited your opportunity to have your animal sold at auction.

11. Only awards allowed in the auction ring are those earned for conformation and/or showmanship by that animal at the current year’s EXPO.

12. A 7% commission will be deducted from the total proceeds, including add-ons, of each animal. 13. Premiums from the sale of livestock at county fairs: Livestock shows and sales are a historic part of the 4-H experience.

Young people who have raised animals through their 4-H projects often sell these animals at public auctions. The money the youth receive from such sales is often in excess of fair market value because members of the community typically wish to reward and recognize the efforts of young people who raise these animals within an educational setting. In return, the public expects to receive a wholesome product and recognition for their purchase. Individuals who purchase an animal are responsible to consult their tax advisor to determine if they may deduct the

amount paid in excess of the market sale value.

public auctions are responsible for reporting this extra income to the IRS. You will receive a 1099 for the amount of the auction. An exhibitors social security number is required for tax purpose.

14. It is your responsibility to thank your buyer for purchasing your animal. The annual support of the buyers makes the

EXPO a success. Taking the time to thank your buyer is an important part of the process. The ways of thanking them are as varied as the exhibitors. Some suggestions of ways to show your gratitude include: a gift given at the EXPO; a hand-written thank you note; personally thanking your buyer at the auction or their place of business; a luncheon. Choose whatever way you feel most comfortable with and best express your personality – but, choose a way. The EXPO Committee expects 4-H leaders and FFA advisors to ensure that their exhibitors have thanked their buyers prior to issuing them their check. Every effort will be made to have checks available for distribution within 45 days of the auction. However, checks will only be distributed once adequate funds have been collected from the buyers.

15. ALL exhibitors must show their own animal during the auction. Any exceptions must be approved by Executive Committee. Anyone in violation of this policy will be banned from the sale ring and forfeit their right to sell at the auction.

16. Any medication given for the health of the animal to treat a disease or infection within 30 days prior to being received at the fair must be declared to the Extension Office within 10 days of the first dose of medication. An animal must be healthy upon arrival and weigh-in at EXPO and be accompanied by a clean bill of health by a licensed veterinarian.

17. Treated animals may be shown and sold through the auction but sale of the animal does not become final until all medication withdrawal periods have been met. The member will continue to care for and own the animal at their expense until sale is final and is properly delivered to the buyer. Failure to care for animal will cancel sale and forfeit all sale monies, the owner will stay pay designated auction fee. Full disclosure of the medication and the withdrawal period will be announced at the auction and buyer will sign a disclosure statement stating they understand the condition of the sale.

18. Any violation of these rules may result in disqualification from EXPO and/or suspension of 4-H membership (to be determined by Leader’s Council), and/or forfeiture of EXPO scholarships, sponsorships, awards, and premium (auction sale price less market value) received for a project at auction.
