FORE

WORD

The Payne County Fairboard of the Payne County Free Fair Association announced that the 108th Annual Free Fair will be held in Stillwater, Oklahoma, August 22- August 27, 2022. To allow for a better display and arrangement of exhibits in the Exhibit Building there is an entry day. All exhibitors are requested to officially enter all exhibits except livestock and plants and flowers by 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, August 23, 2022. Judging will start on Wednesday morning at 9:00 a.m. The Exhibit Buildings will be closed during the time of judging.

After the judging, all exhibits will be arranged for proper display when the fair officially opens Wednesday, 6:00 p.m. August 24th. All livestock will need to be officially entered and in place per the fair program schedule. A properly conducted fair should be representative of the agricultural enterprises in the county. It should stimulate exhibitors to improve their skills and techniques. Three major components of the fair should be education, competition, and entertainment. Traditionally the county fair is the largest agricultural activity of the year. It brings together citizens of all communities in the county and allows the opportunity for renewal of old friendships and the opportunity for meeting new friends. The success of the Free Fair depends much upon the interest manifested by the various exhibitors and the premium list has been made as large as the appropriations will justify. It has been the goal of the Payne County Fairboard to offer a premium for all kinds of livestock, handiwork and farm products that will be exhibited from Payne County that are found worthy. The Payne County Fairboard will spare no pains to make everything pleasant and as comfortable for the public as possible to do, as well as to make it profitable.

Remember, this is a free fair. No gate admission will be charged. It is your fair. With the right kind of cooperation, Payne County Fair will be second to none in the State.

4. Exhibitors of livestock will be required to keep their stalls open, in good order, and their livestock accessible to visitors at all reasonable hours during the fair.

5. Due to the staggering of release times of livestock, the Fairboard asks the cooperation of everyone to keep travel in the north/south fire lane (Asphalt Road on east side of livestock barns running north/south) to a minimum. Any vehicles left unattended in the north/south fire lane will be towed at the owner’s expense. Staggering of livestock release times will not be possible in the future if traffic cannot be kept to a minimum in the fire lane.

6. All property of every character entered for competition or display, or any other purpose or being anywhere on the Fair Grounds shall be subject to the control of the Board of Directors, but in no case shall the Fair Association or any of the officers be held responsible for any loss, damage or injury of any character or any such property while same is under their control, or at any other time or place if the property owners or others interested in the property desire protection against loss, damage or injury from fire, or from any other cause, they must make their own arrangements.

Any person or persons not abiding by these rules and regulations may be subject to disqualification from this and any future county shows. Premium money from the show and bonuses or special awards will be forfeited. The Payne County Fairboard, a member of the International Association of Fairs and Expositions has approved and adopted the “Show Ring Code of Ethics” as stated in the agreement for state and county livestock shows that are sponsored by the membership of I.A.F.E. The following dress code is strongly recommended. FFA junior exhibitors will be required to wear for show:

2022 PAYNE COUNTY FAIR GUIDE • PAGE 7

the official FFA jacket, clean pressed jeans; clean shirt with collar; regulation FFA tie and white shirt are optional. 4-H junior exhibitors will be required to wear for show: jacket that is representative of 4-H, clean pressed jeans, clean shirt with collar; tie or scarf optional.

Because apparel requirements are predetermined for junior dairy and junior horse exhibitors, they will be required to wear the 4-H or FFA emblem when showing in their respective competitions. Exhibitors must adhere to the dress code to be allowed in the show ring. The dress code also will be enforced during the Premium Auction and while junior exhibitors are appearing before the media or other special functions where they are representing their organization. In extremely hot weather, show management may modify the jacket requirement.

Believing it is in the best interest of all youth livestock exhibitors and breeders of livestock to maintain a reputation of integrity and to continue to present a wholesome and progressive image in the show ring, the following list of practices are considered unacceptable in the presentation of livestock. The use of such practices or procedures is therefore, considered a violation of the Rules and Regulations governing this show. Final interpretation of the following rules will be made by show management. Management decisions are final. a. The exhibitor must be the sole owner of any animals show in his/her name. Junior exhibitors must have owned, cared for daily and fed market animals from not later than the date nominated, or date listed in premium list of show. All other animals, including dairy animals, must be owned by or transferred to the exhibitor by the required date listed in the show premium list. b. In breeding classes, beef, dairy, sheep, swine and goats’ entries must be registered and recorded in the sole name of the exhibitor. Tattoos, brands, registry association tags and flock tags must match the papers and be correctly located. Swine ear notches must be correct and healed; purebred barrows must have healed ear notches in both ears. c. All exhibitors are expected to provide the primary care and grooming of their animals throughout the show. An exhibitor may be assisted in grooming their animal. However, the exhibitor must be present and applying the level of expertise appropriate for that exhibitors’ level of experience as deemed by their FFA advisor or county 4-H agent. As a result, beginning showman is allowed more assistance than seasoned showman. d. Any junior exhibitor entering livestock in competition must be present to lead and show said animal in competition, or the animal will be disqualified, and entry fees will not be refunded. Any infraction of rules will cause forfeiture of any premiums earned. The only exceptions to this rule are where a bonafide owner has more than one animal in a given class and, due to an extreme emergency; the bonafide owner is not able to be in attendance. Such cases must be approved by the management. Each animal offered for sale must be handled in the ring by the bonafide owner. e. Soft Muzzles will be allowed on sheep and goats. f. Do not misrepresent the age of the animal for the class in which it is shown. Market steers and lambs must follow the tooth rule as printed in the premium list of the show. Birth dates, transfer dates and other information on registration papers must be correct. g. Treating or massaging any part of the body internally or externally with an irritant, or other substance to temporarily straighten a weak back or loin; to produce unnatural animation or to cause swelling or changes in contour or handling qualities is prohibited. h. Minimizing the effects of campiness or to affect handling qualities or contour by feeding or injecting drugs, depressants or applying packs (hot or cold) or using any artificial contrivance or therapeutic treatment except normal exercise is prohibited. i. Striking the animal to cause swelling is prohibited. j. Surgery or any other procedure performed to change the natural process of growth, maturation, contour, or appearance of any animal, to include teeth, is prohibited. Not included is removal of teats or horns, clipping and dressing of hair and trimming of hooves. k. The injection or insertion of foreign materials under the skin or into the muscle is prohibited.

l. The use of alcoholic beverages in the feed or as a drench is prohibited. m. Force filling of any type by any means to include stomach pumps is prohibited. Rehydration of lambs will be allowed as needed. n. No alteration or simulation with respect to color of hair will be permitted on any junior animals. This includes all products, natural or manmade; false switches are permitted. If alteration or addition is detected by a show official or through a protest, the exhibitor, organized group, or individual involved will be disqualified and barred from exhibiting. These grooming rules apply to both sexes, all species, for the duration of the junior division of the show.

In swine, no powdering, oiling, painting, or dressing other than water will be permitted. o. The use of any chemical and/or compound that is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in meatproducing animals and the illegal use of approved chemicals and/ or compounds are prohibited. All animals shall be subject to test (blood, urine, and tissue) for foreign substances that exceed the acceptable levels established by the United States Department of Agriculture and/or the Food and Drug Administration. A positive test will result in disqualification, forfeiture of any premiums and/or awards and will exclude the exhibitor, organized group, or individual involved from future competition at this show. All medications at the show will be administered by licensed veterinarians only. p. Balancing the udder by any abnormal means including the use of a mechanical contrivance or the injection of fluid or drugs, setting the teats and/or occluding (sealing the ends) with a mechanical contrivance or with the use of a chemical preparation, treating or massaging the udder or its attachments with an irritant or counter-irritant will not be permitted. The use of common products such as fly spray, ointment, or liniment in excess to the extent that it is irritating is included as an irritant. q. Criticizing or interfering with the judge, other exhibitors, breed representatives or show officials before, during or after the event may result in an individual or group being expelled, placed on probation, declared ineligible, or barred from exhibiting at the event. r. Exhibitors, organized groups or any individual switching animals at any time and changing ear tags and other forms of identification will be barred from showing and will forfeit all prizes and premium money. s. Junior exhibitors, and adults involved with the exhibitors are expected to adhere to the General Rules and Regulation of junior livestock show including the Show-Ring Code of Ethics as well as the Rules and Regulations governing the Junior Division. t. Any violation of the Rules and Regulations incorporated in the premium list, the Show-Ring Code of Ethics and the Junior Division Rules and Regulations may result in forfeiture of all premiums and awards, disqualification and expulsion or probation of the exhibitor, organized group the exhibitor represents any individual or livestock involved. Probation, disqualification, expulsion, or other disciplinary action of the show management will be final. Such action will require application for readmission under such terms as the management may prescribe before the group or individual is allowed to exhibit at future events. Violations of rules at a show which is a member of show support organizations including the Oklahoma Association of Fairs and Festivals, the AOB Livestock Show and Rodeo Managers Association, and the international Association of Fairs and Expositions may affect the eligibility of the violators for participation in any show throughout the country, regardless of the show’s membership in these organizations. u. NEW RULE - Any parents, participating adults or students, interference, misconduct, outburst, or inappropriate language, during the show will not be tolerated, that exhibits a bad example for all who participates. The result of these actions can be your child or exhibitor being put on probation or excluded from ever showing here again and your removal from the facilities/grounds.

We are the examples for our children and youth at these shows. If you have a question or problem about or during the show, please conduct yourself in a correct and calm manor to a superintendent or fairboard member.

ENTRIES 1. No animal or article will be allowed to be entered in the name of any other person than the bonafide owner or agent. If this rule should be violated, the Fairboard will withhold the premium if such should be awarded by the judge.

2. Any article of fruit, vegetable, grain, or seeds to compete for a premium must be owned and grown by the exhibitor during the year 2022 in Payne County. ALL ENTRIES MUST BE GROWN OR MADE IN 2022 3. The right is reserved by the Payne County Fairboard to interpret, revise, or add to the rules as its interests may require.

4. ENTRIES MUST NOT BE REMOVED BEFORE THEIR SPECIFIED RELEASE TIME. EXHIBITS REMOVED BEFORE THEIR RELEASE TIME WILL HAVE PREMIUMS WITHHELD. 5. All exhibitors shall abide by the stall assignments made and posted on the grounds. Superintendents of each species shall have the authority to supersede the posted stall assignments at their own discretion, or as circumstances require. Effort will be made to provide spaces for tack every 10 to 12 stalls if room is available.

AWARDING COMMITTEE 1. All judges and awarding committee must be wholly disinterested directly or indirectly in the decisions, which they may have voiced. The Fair Board reserves the right to substitute judges in case of necessity.

Awards will be paid as marked by judge and not by ribbon attached in case of misunderstanding.

SECTION 24 (TSF-305): SCIENCE DISCOVERY PROJECTS

SCIENCE DISCOVERY PROJECTS The goal of this project and exhibit is to allow 4-H members to: • Use the scientific method to gain an understanding of how things work and the variables that affect them.

• Take an open and creative approach to problem solving.

• Learn that a successful outcome is based not on personal opinion but on scientific fact.

• Improve written and visual communication skills.4-H members are encouraged to use their 4-H projects as the basis for their scientific research and discovery project.

Exhibits should relate to one of the following topics: • Behavioral and Social Sciences • Biochemistry, Medicine, and Health Sciences • Botany and Zoological Sciences • Computer Science • Earth and Space Sciences • Engineering • Environmental Sciences • Mathematics • Physical Sciences A few resources for finding project ideas are: The WWW Virtual Library: Science Fairs - http://physics.usc.edu/~gould/ScienceFairs/ Information about Oklahoma Science Fairs - https://ossef.zfairs.com/ Displays must be free standing and are limited to 36” x 36” (width x depth) when sides are extend Displays must be free standing and are limited to 3’ x 3’ (width x depth) when sides are extended.

Commercially available “Science Fair Presentation Boards” are encouraged. Counties may enter one exhibit in each class. First place exhibits in each class will be displayed. Second place and subsequential exhibits may be displayed based upon space available and judges’/committees’ discretion.

Displays without reports will be judged accordingly. Displays with reports will be placed above those missing reports. All exhibitors must be at least 8 years old AND in 3rd grade to exhibit.

1. Beginning Division (Grades 3-5) – A display illustrating the project.

2. Intermediate Division (Grades 6-8) – A display with an accompanying report of approximately two typewritten pages.

3. Advanced Division (Grades 9-12) – A display and a written report about the project that includes an interview with a scientist, science teacher or someone who is knowledgeable about the area that is being studied. (Example: a beekeeper could help with bee projects.)

Reports should be (3) three to (5) five pages in length.

4. Team Exhibit (All Grades) - Team may include a maximum of three members. A display and a written report about the project. It is recommended that it includes an interview with a scientist, science teacher or someone who is knowledgeable about the area that is being studied. (Example: an engineer could help with engineering projects.) Reports should be (3) three to (5) five pages in length.

SECTION 25 (TSF-306) - FABRICS AND FASHIONS Design and Construction Fall 2022 – All Design and Construction projects will be REQUIRED to have the Skill Mastery Sheet securely attached to the project. Use a safety pin and attach directly to the exhibit when at all possible. NEVER attach sheet to a hanger! The sheet MUST be completed by the 4-H member.

The skill mastery sheet (https://4h.okstate.edu/projects/design-andconstruction/curriculum-and-patterns.html is an education tool to guide project work. Click Sample Technique Cards to find instruction for many of the techniques noted in the skill sheets (i.e. facings, zippers, hems, fasteners, etc.).

Instruction Sheets for the projects listed can be found at: https://4h. okstate.edu/projects/design-and-construction/project-guide-sheets.html Fair exhibits have been carefully selected and directed for members to investigate and learn specific skills/information and to demonstrate mastery of these skills/information. The end-product/exhibit is being evaluated on the skills “learned/mastered.” The skill sheet serves as the member’s “personal reflection” and communicates to the judge what was learned.

Why is this important? Because in 4-H, the reflection and application of what was learned is more important than the end product/exhibit. The skill sheet is to be used as a planning tool. It is important that each 4-H member take responsibility for the life skill of “learning to learn.” This may require members, leaders and educators to look up terms and learn techniques as part of the educational process. Resources, instructions and project guides are posted online. Members are encouraged to seek out other valid resources which teach proper technique and knowledge in the areas of design and construction. General Skills to be mastered in project/product in ADC, IDC and HTDC: §Structural Design: Construction technique, size, form, color and texture suited to the materials and product end use.

Elements of Design: The finished product illustrates the member is learning or “mastering” the basic elements of design - line, shape or form, texture, color, and space. Principles of Design: The finished product illustrates an awareness and application of the principles of harmony, proportion, balance, rhythm and emphasis adding dimension, interest and/or appeal to the finished product. Surface Design: This is any lines, shapes, colors, textures, or materials applied to the product or item’s design that creates an emotional or personal quality, individuality and creative expression without disturbing initial/end purpose/how it is used. Design is that “something” which makes the item unique to the individual designer. Reports/ Descriptions/Expense Sheet/etc. – Exhibits requiring a report/description/ expense sheet of any kind, can be typed or neatly/legible handwritten.

Report should be one-two pages. If typed, it must be double spaced using a minimum of 12-point font. Report MUST be SECURELY attached to the exhibit. A county may enter one (1) exhibit in each class. A 4-H member may enter one (1) exhibit per class. Hangers will not be returned. Awards: Ribbons will be awarded to the top 10 in each class.

General Rules a. Refer to Western Judged Division General Rules for acceptable tack, attire, and equipment. Unless riding a five-year-old or younger in a snaffle or hackamore, only one hand may be used on reins and hands must not be changed. Except for horses shown with a hackamore or snaffle, only one hand may be used on the reins, except that it is permissible to change hands to work an obstacle.

While horse is in motion, rider’s hands shall be clear of horse and saddle. b. This class will be judged on the performance of the horse over the obstacles with emphasis on manners, response to the rider, and quality of movement. Credit will be given to those horses negotiating the obstacles with style and some degree of speed, providing correctness is not sacrificed. Horses should receive credit for showing attentiveness to the obstacles and capability of picking their own way through the course when obstacles warrant it, and willingly responding to rider’s cues on more difficult obstacles. c. Horse shall be penalized for any unnecessary delay while approaching or working an obstacle. Horses with artificial appearance over obstacles should be penalized. d. Horses must not be required to work on the rail. The course should be designed to require each horse to show the three gaits (walk, jog, lope) somewhere between obstacles as part of its work, and quality of movement and cadence should be considered as part of the maneuver score. Enough space must be provided for a horse to jog (at least 30 feet) and lope (at least 50 feet) for judges to evaluate these gaits. While on the line of travel between obstacles, the horse shall be balanced, carrying his head and neck in a relaxed, natural position, with the poll level with or slightly above the withers. The head should not be carried behind the vertical, giving the appearance of intimidation, or be excessively nosed out, giving a

2022 PAYNE COUNTY FAIR GUIDE • PAGE 37

resistant appearance. e. At least six obstacles will be used; at least three of which will be mandatory, and three others selected from the approved list. The gait between obstacles shall be at the discretion of the judge. No flying lead changes are allowed. f. The course to be used must be posted or distributed to exhibitors at least one hour before scheduled time of the class. g. All courses and obstacles are to be constructed with safety in mind to eliminate any accidents. Courses for younger age group (9-11) should be less difficult than courses for older youth.

When the distances and spaces are measured between all obstacles, the inside base to inside base measurement of each obstacle considering the normal path of the horse, should be the measuring point. h. If disrupted, the course shall be reset after each horse has worked.

In the case that a combination of obstacles is used, the course cannot be reset until the contestant finishes the entire course regardless of where any disruption occurs. i. If undue delay occurs after the horse enters or begins working an obstacle or safety of rider is of concern, the judge may motion rider to next obstacle (Rider to receive all incurred penalties, allowed to work other obstacles and will receive score for pattern).

2. Mandatory obstacles are: a. Opening, passing through and closing gate. (Losing control of gate is to be penalized.) Use a gate that will not endanger horse or rider. If the gate has a metal, plastic or wooden support bar under the opening, contestants must work the gate moving forward through it.

Gate work can be specified as to which hand and side of horse is on the gate, and if gate is to pulled toward the horse upon opening or the gate is pushed so that the gate is worked as the rider moves through the gate opening. A left hand pull instruction would mean the rider’s left hand is on the gate, the right hand on the reins, and the horse is positioned so the gate is on the left side of the horse, and the rider is to pull the gate toward the direction of the horse to open it. b. Ride over at least four logs or poles. These can be in a straight line, curved, zigzag or raised. The space between the logs is to be measured and the path the horse is to take should be the measuring point. The space for walk-overs shall be 20-24 inches; trot-overs 3’ to 3’6”, and lope-overs 6’ to 7’. Walkovers may be elevated to 12 inches and should be a 33 minimum of 22 inches apart. Trot-overs and lopeovers can be elevated a maximum of 8 inches. All elevated obstacles must be placed in a cup, notched block or otherwise secured so they cannot roll. Measure the height from the ground to the top of the element. c. Backing obstacle. The backing obstacle is to be spaced a minimum of 28 inches; if elevated, 30 inches minimum space. Entrants cannot be asked to back over a stationary object such as a wooden pole or metal bar. i. Back through and around at least three markers. ii. Back through L, V, U, straight or similar shaped course. May be elevated no more than 24 inches.

3. Optional obstacles, but not limited to: a. Ride over wooden bridge. (Suggested minimum width shall be 36 inches wide and at least six feet long.) Bridge should be safe, sturdy and negotiated at a walk. b. Water hazard (ditch or small pond). No metal or slick bottom boxes will be used. c. Serpentine obstacles at walk or jog or trot. Spacing is to be a minimum of 6 feet for the jog or trot. d. Carry object from part of arena to another. (Only objects which reasonably might be carried on a trail ride may use.) e. Put on and remove slicker. f. Remove and replace materials from mailbox. g. Side pass (may be elevated to 12 inches maximum). h. An obstacle consisting of four logs or rails, each 5 to 7 feet long, laid in a square. Each contestant will enter the square by riding over log or rail as designated. When all four feet are inside the square, rider should execute a turn as indicated and depart. i. Log drag (15 – 19 age group only) Horse must be willing to drag a log for a short distance, either in a straight line or around a set pattern. Rope should be dallied around the saddle horn and not tied hard and fast.

j. Crossing obstacle – While mounted the horse would walk over obstacle no more than 18” in height. k. Stationary steer (12 – 14 and 15 – 19 age groups only). Horse to stand quietly while the rider makes a swing(s) and throw (rope) at the stationary steer. Missing the steer will not be penalized. l. Use of any other safe and negotiable obstacle that could reasonably be expected to be encountered on a trail ride, providing the obstacle meets the judge’s approval. m. A combination of two or more of any obstacles is acceptable.

Obstacles that should not be used include tires, animals, hides, PVC pipe, elevated obstacles above the height of maximum allowable heights for walk, trot, or lope overs (jumps), rocking or moving bridges, water box with floating or moving parts, flames, dry ice, fire extinguisher, etc. logs or poles elevated in a manner that permits such to roll, dismounting or ground ties. n. The judge has the right and duty to alter the course in any manner or remove any obstacle he deems unsafe or nonnegotiable.

If at any time a trail obstacle is deemed to be unsafe by the judge, it shall be repaired or removed from the course. If it cannot be repaired and horses have completed the course, the score for that obstacle shall be deducted from all previous works for that class.
