Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair - Septemeber 6th - 9th, 2012 - Exhibitor Handbook
EXHIBITOR HANDBOOK
EXHIBITOR’S “HOW TO ENTER” PAGE Have you always wanted to enter an item into the annual fair? Here is a step-by-step guide to assist you in doing just that. STEP 1: Obtain an Exhibitor Handbook The handbook is located on our website (www.tbvfair.com), at the fair office and at various other businesses in Siskiyou, Modoc, and Klamath Counties (contact the fair office 530-667-5312 for exact locations). The handbook is usually available starting in June of each year. STEP 2: Review the Exhibitor Handbook Read through the state and local rules. All major changes will be noted with a NEW!! notation in front of the rule. There is a table of contents that breaks down the handbook so it is easier to determine between Junior (17 and under) and Adult/Senior (18 and over unless the class is not offered in the Junior section), to locate the department and classes that are available to be entered. STEP 3: Obtain an Entry Form The entry form is available on our website (www.tbvfair.com) or inside of each Exhibitor Handbook. You may make as many copies of these as needed. One entry form is needed for each livestock species, departments other than livestock and horses may be entered on one entry form. (i.e. art, photo, foods, ag, flowers all on one form!) STEP 4: Complete the Entry Form The entry form needs to be completed in full. Enter all personal information such as name, physical and mailing address, date of birth, etc. Enter the Division and Class numbers for the item(s) that you wish to enter (these are located in the Exhibitor’s Handbook). Fill in a description of the item (i.e. class is painting, description would be mountain) and if an entry fee/drug fee is applicable. Be sure to sign the form stating that you have read, understand and agree to abide by the rules and release liability from the fair regarding the item entered. Make a copy of the entry form for your records, to keep costs down the fair will not provide you with a copy. All incomplete entry forms will be accessed a $10 processing fee. STEP 5: Turn in the Entry Form to the Fair Office Entry forms are due in the fair office no later than 5:00 PM or post marked per the following schedule: th Market Beef: May 6 th Market Swine: July 7 th Market Sheep: July 7 th Market Goats: July 7 th Market Pen of Rabbits: August 8 th Market Pen of Poultry: August 8 th All other departments: Monday, August 20 Entry forms may be hand-delivered, mailed or dropped through the slot in the rear door of the main office. Entry forms received after the deadline cannot be accepted. STEP 6: Deliver the Exhibit Entered You bring your item to the fairgrounds on the dates and times specified in the Exhibitor’s Handbook; there will be signage to determine which building to go to. For still exhibits you will be given a claim tag upon delivery. The item will then stay on the grounds until the fair is officially over (Sunday at 8:00 P.M.). STEP 7: Visit the Fair Come to the fair and view your item being displayed. See if you received a ribbon and tell all your friends! See the department section on the specific time of judging. STEP 8: Pick up your Item and Awards (if applicable) Between 8:00 P.M. and 9:00 P.M. on the Sunday of the fair and the following Monday from 9:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M., you are able to pick up your item that was entered. For still exhibits, be sure to bring your claim tag to turn in. You will go to the department that your item was displayed to pick it up. If you received a ribbon on your item be sure to check with the department supervisor or building clerks about award/premium checks. Should you have any questions at all please don’t hesitate to contact our office at 530-667-5312 or by email tulefair@cot.net. TULELAKE-BUTTE VALLEY FAIR – September 6-9, 2012

State Rules PREFACE 1.
2. 3. 4.
5.
6.
7. 8. 9.
The purposes of these rules are to: a. Ensure educational and equitable competition; b. Provide state-wide competition consistency; and c. Maximize exhibitor and public safety. These rules apply to all competitive exhibits conducted by district, citrus and county fairs in the State of California. These rules cannot be waived or amended by anyone, including the fair board, management or judge. The Division of Fairs & Expositions (F&E) is the final and absolute interpreter of these rules. Only a fair may request, in writing a variance on their own behalf or on behalf of an exhibitor to a specific rule. This request must be made prior to the start of the fair or specific competition for which a variance is requested. If F&E approves a specific variance request it may approve a conditional variance with specific conditions. Any approved variance shall expire at the conclusion of the annual fair. Fair Management and/or Board of Directors may grant variances to ownership rule in the instance of deceased animals, submission of late entries and refund of entry fees. Variances may be ruled upon by F&E at the request of Fair Management and/or Board of Directors. F&E will distribute any corrections and additions to these rules to fairs. It is the fair's responsibility to make them available. F&E does not represent or endorse the accuracy, currentness or reliability of any advice, opinion, statement or other information displayed by the fair in the distribution of corrections and additions to these rules. True and correct copies of all rules and any additions or corrections are available upon request at F&E during business hours, by mail or at www.cdfa.ca.gov/fe . Fairs may create "Local Rules" that may be stricter than the State Rules but that may not circumvent the State Rules. If a local rule is not printed in the exhibitor handbook the applicable State Rule will apply. Competition at the California State Fair is governed by State Fair's rules.

II. ELIGIBILITY Entry Process 1. By signing and submitting an entry form the exhibitors and their agents, parents and leaders acknowledge and agree that they: a. Understand and have read these State Rules and local fair rules; b. Agree to abide by them; c. Certify that all information on the entry form is true and accurate; and d. Agree to comply with the fair's decision regarding any alleged violation of the state or Local Rules. e. In the event that it is determined there has been unethical treatment of animals or violation of state or federal regulations or of state or local fair drug policy rules, exhibitor names will be forwarded to F&E as well as given to the Network of California fairs and to appropriate government agencies. 2. Exhibitors are responsible for obtaining entry form(s) & rules from fair, and submit the form(s) and any required fees by the closing date as specified by Fair Management. 3. No entry form or entry will be accepted after the closing date for entries. 4.

A complete exhibit eligible in more than one division and/or class will be entered and judged only in the division and/or class for which it best qualifies. Any exhibit not properly entered may be transferred to its
proper class by Fair Management, whose decision may be changed only by the judge. 9. The Fair Management has the right to limit entries to facilities available and/or cancel any division or class in which there are not enough entries. Any return of entries or fees under this rule will be done on a nondiscriminatory basis. The decision of Fair Management under this rule is only appealable to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), whose decision is final. 10. Fair Management may combine classes of 4 or less entries for meaningful competition. 11. Exhibitors may not submit the same entries to two or more fairs that require them to be on exhibit at the same time unless prior written approval has been obtained from both fairs. A copy of this approval must be submitted with entry forms. Participation 12. The Fair Management shall deny entry or disqualify and remove any exhibit or exhibitor that is ineligible for competition under State and Local Rules or endangers the public or has violated State and Local Rules. The fair may require removal of the exhibitor and/or exhibit (including animals) from the fairgrounds. 13. Exhibitors, leaders, advisors and parents found, after a chance to provide evidence and be heard before the Fair Management (CEO and staff) of unethical practices as set forth in the State and Local Rules or in actions inimical with the fair program shall result in the exhibit being disqualified and the forfeiture of any awards and/or privileges as may be deemed appropriate to the circumstances by the Fair Management. If the judging for the exhibit has not yet commenced the exhibitor, leaders, advisors and parents may be denied entry in any exhibitions at the fair. The Fair Management shall report any such incidences of unethical or inimical behavior established by the fair as provided for in this rule, to F&E in writing and such reports may become the basis for fair to refuse entries from the exhibitor, leaders, advisors or parents for up to 5 years following the infraction. 14. Exhibits must be on exhibit as specified in the exhibitor handbook. Fair Management may allow late exhibit delivery or early removal of exhibits when it is in the best interest of the fair.

responsible for accidents or losses that may occur to any of the exhibitors or exhibits at the fair.

III. JUDGING 1. 2.
3.
4.
Judges should avoid any appearance of partiality and avoid unnecessary fraternization with exhibitors. No person shall act as a judge in any division in which he/she or a member of his/her immediate family is an exhibitor, is in charge of an exhibit or division, in charge of a group of exhibitors, or a member of a group of exhibitors. No person shall be allowed, under any circumstances, to interfere with the judge(s) regarding their adjudications, or with the fair's staff, or to offer any audible criticism of an exhibit or exhibitor. Violators of this rule shall be excused immediately from the competition and shall be subject to such additional penalties, including cancellations of awards, as the management shall consider proper. The judge has the authority to: a. Disqualify or transfer to the correct class any exhibit that does not meet the requirements of the division or class in which it is entered; b. Disqualify any exhibit not properly cleaned or fitted; c. Disqualify any exhibit that is in his/her opinion hazardous to public safety; d. Examine the animals before entering the show ring; and/or
e.
5. 6. 7.
Refuse to make award to any animal that shows visible evidence of disease, deformity, or lameness. No award will be made to exhibits eliminated under any of the above instances. The judge may not waive State Rules. The judge's decision is final. Fair Management may not request any changes in judges' rulings. To encourage high standards, the judge shall award first, second, third place, etc. according to merit. If without merit, the judge shall make no award under any circumstances. The judge may award championships or other awards at his/her discretion for superior exhibits. This applies whether there are one or more exhibits in class.
IV. AWARDS AND SCORING 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
6.
7.
Fair Management is not responsible for errors on entry forms. No exhibitor shall be entitled to an award that has been disallowed as the result of his/her own error. All divisions or classes will be judged under the American system and/or Danish system as stated in the fair's exhibitor handbook. State "Judging Standards" are to be used where applicable. Local judging standards may be used if published in the exhibitor handbook. Cash awards will be paid only as recorded on the signed Judging Sheet and only to the exhibitor. Fair Management shall withhold the payment of awards for exhibits that are determined ineligible under State and Local Rules and may recover awards that have been paid for ineligible exhibits. No exhibitor shall receive more than two cash awards in any one class using American judging system. (See definition of exhibitor.) a. When an exhibitor earns more than two awards in a class, the exhibitor will receive the two highest cash awards, and the lesser cash awards will be moved down the placings to other exhibitors; ribbons will be awarded as placed. b. Any difference in payment limits under the Danish system of judging shall be printed in the exhibitor handbook. c. When the fair combines classes, an exhibitor is entitled to two cash awards per each class that was combined. Judges should determine special awards as printed before combining. Sweepstakes shall be awarded as specified in the exhibitor handbook based upon these scoring guidelines: a. First award - 5 points; Second award - 3 points; Third award - 1 point. b. Sweepstakes shall be awarded only when at least three separate exhibitors have achieved at least a combined point total of 30. c. To receive sweepstakes awards, an exhibitor must have a minimum of ten points.

d.
Sweepstakes points will be credited only to the exhibitor whose name appears on the entry form. e. There are separate sweepstakes or high point rules for horse shows, which may be determined by the fair. 8. Ties which cannot be broken by the judge will be processed as follows (See also Horse Show Department): a. 2-way tie for 1st place: Combine 1st and 2nd place money and divide equally between the two 1st-place exhibitors. The 3rd highest finisher receives 3rd place money etc. b. 3-way tie for 1st place: Combine 1st, 2nd and 3rd place money and divide equally between the three exhibitors. 9. The fair will not guarantee sponsored donations. 10. Placing of ribbons does not guarantee correct judging placement. Only the official placing stated on the judging sheet(s) constitutes the final placement.

V. PROTEST 1. Protests will be considered only if there has been a violation of State or Local Rules. Decisions of judges, veterinarians, weighmasters, breed callers, tail dock officials and timers cannot be protested and are final. 2. Protests must be accompanied by a deposit of either $100.00 (cash, money order or certified check made payable to the fair) or $200.00 if the protest relates to violations of State Rules X-XI (Animal Health Rules). NOTE: The deposit will be returned if the protest is upheld. If the protest is upheld, the violator may be held liable for any portion of the direct costs incurred by the fair in the course of the protest resolution. Failure to reimburse the fair shall be cause for disallowing future entries in any of the network of California fairs. 3. Given the short duration of the fair: a. The protestor shall make every effort to file the protest prior to judging. All protests must be filed within 24 hours of the time of the cause of the protest and before conclusion of fair. b. The fair will make every effort to resolve protests as quickly as possible. All exhibitors by entering an exhibit and all persons by filing a protest agree to cooperate with Fair Management to resolve protests in a timely manner. c. Protests shall be adjudicated by Fair Management and/or members of Board of Directors. 4. Any exhibit involved in a filed protest before or during judging is eligible to compete until the protest is resolved. 5. Classes that involve a protested exhibit will not become official until the protest is resolved. a. In championship or special award classes that involve the protested exhibit the judge shall also select 1st and 2nd runners-up in case of disqualification.
11.
In the case of protest, the unofficial judging results may be used to prepare the sale list and other necessary information. At the discretion of the Chief Executive Officer judging can be delayed to allow time for the fair to resolve the protest if to do so does not unreasonably delay or disrupt the operations of the remainder of the fair judging and auction events. Prior to judging the affected class, fairs may announce that an entry has been protested. All questions concerning competition or non-protestable disputes or differences with staff or the exhibition not provided for under the State or Local Rules shall be referred to the CEO or their designee, whose decision shall be final. Violations of State Rules may be appealed to F&E. An individual may appeal to F&E only after adjudication at the local level and only if: a. The decision upholds a Local Rule that circumvents or is not in the spirit of a State Rule(s); b. The individual can substantiate new and credible information that was not available at the time of the local decision; or c. There was inappropriate adjudication at the local level that may have included conflict of interest, lack of due process, or a significant misinterpretation of rules. A fair or state, national or international organization or subdivision thereof which has a significant stake in the interpretation of rules affecting the network of California fairs may make an appeal directly to F&E concerning multiple-fair issues, industry-wide issues, unavoidable conflict of interest or assistance in enforcing its own organization rules.
12. No protest will be accepted unless it: a. Is filed or received, in writing, with a signed original and a signed duplicate copy; b. Clearly states which rule has been violated; c. States when the protestor first became aware of the facts and rule violation; d. States the facts relied upon for the basis of the protest; e. States that the protestor will cooperate with the investigation of the protest and that the protestor will be available and agrees to attend any hearing held to resolve the protest at the time and place directed by F&E; f. Includes the names of supporting witnesses, with accessible phone numbers; and g. Describes or attaches any documents relating to the protest, which must include the written decision issued by the local arbitrating body. 13. F&E must receive the appeal within 24 hours from receipt of notice of local decision. 14. A hearing may be conducted at the discretion of F&E. The Director of F&E may consult with and/or request
TULELAKE-BUTTE VALLEY FAIR – September 6-9, 2012 20
Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair - Septemeber 6th - 9th, 2012 - Exhibitor Handbook
EXHIBITOR HANDBOOK

MISSION STATEMENT: The “Rancher’s Choice” Market Beef Contest is an educational contest that cumulates a market beef youth project with real-world relevance to the demands of today’s commercial beef cattle industry. PURPOSE: One purpose of this contest is to showcase locally raised commercial beef calves, (not to exclude purebred animals) that if not chosen as project animals, would have typically gone on through the commercial feedlot/packing plant industry segments, and then to the consumer. The second purpose of this contest is to help provide lifeskills and education to exhibitors in learning more about the operations and economics of commercial beef production; including animal feed performance, actual market-based price structures, total costs involved, and researching a topic of common use or concern within the industry.

“Pay What You Can” Admission It’s your choice! If you choose to donate, pay what you can! The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair has been very pro-active during the past year dealing with the state funding cuts and is progressively working towards the goal of becoming self-sustainable. The implementation of the new “Pay What You Can Admission” is an example of how the fair is taking a positive approach to these challenging times and paving the road to a sustainable future for generations to come. The “Pay What You Can” admission policy will serve as yet, another stepping stone as we lay the foundation to secure a sustainable future. As our fair endures it’s first year of zero funding, the time has never been more immediate and the need has never been greater. Individually, our impact of giving is limited, but together as a community we have the unlimited potential and ability to preserve the future of our fair for generations to come. We are very fortunate to have incredible community supporters like you and are optimistic that together our local and surrounding communities will continue to show their support through these challenging economic times. As always, the Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair sincerely appreciates your generous support as we strive to continue a tradition that has served the people of the Klamath Basin for 61 years! Due to the 100% loss of state funding, which accounted for over 40% of the fair’s annual budget, the TulelakeButte Valley Fair will continue to implement the “Pay What You Can” admission policy, which allows you the customer, the choice of donating an admission fee for attending the fair. While paying for admission is not required, we kindly ask for support by donating what you can and am providing you the value of your admission to the fair. You have the choice of paying the suggested value, less than, more than or nothing at all. Your admission donation will help promote a sustainable future for the fair and allow everyone to enjoy the fair at reasonable rates. Here are the values of what you are receiving by attending the fair! ATTENDEE Adult:
