Decisions of the Judges are final and may not be protested. Oregon Fairs Association ANIMAL WELFARE POLICY 1. The fitting and showing of livestock are traditional hallmarks of Oregon s fair industry, as are rodeos and horse racing. Each year, tens of thousands of 4-H and FFA members, as well as adults, actively participate in competitions involving cattle, horses, hogs, sheep, goats, chickens, ducks, geese, llamas, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, dogs and other animals. 2. Many a college education in Oregon has been assisted from the sale of livestock at auctions where good citizens have invested in their community s young people. 3. As increased urbanization has come to Oregon, more fairs are familiarizing their patrons with animals through the use of petting zoos. Here, children have an opportunity to get close to animals normally under the supervision of 4-H and FFA members. This is often one of the highlights of a small youngster s visit to the fair. 4. Rodeos are as traditional as fairs themselves. They are professionally performed and rate as one of a fair s most popular spectator events. 5. Considering the importance of animals to Oregon fairs, it shall be the policy of members of the Oregon Fairs Association to treat all animals at the fair in a humane manner. Animals shall be provided clean bedding, adequate food and water, and fair exhibitors shall keep their animals from harm. 6. It shall further be the policy of OFA members to protect animals from mistreatment by the general public and to assure the safety of fair patrons. 7. All persons in charge of fair activities involving animals shall be made aware of this policy.

A clinical inspection of all 4-H/FFA cattle, hogs, sheep, dairy goats, poultry, pets, cavies and rabbits will be made upon arrival at the fairgrounds. Any animals showing clinical evidence of a disease will be refused entry. Animals affected with warts, lice, ringworm, or other skin conditions or unsightly blemishes or any other infections or contagious disease will be refused entry. Any animal becoming ill during the fair will be required to be removed from the fair. No use of outside drugs to enhance animal performance or mask pain will be allowed. Malignant Catarrhal Fever All 4-H and FFA members who are considering exhibiting a beef or swine project that will return home from fair need to be aware of the Malignant Catarrhal Fever (MCF) virus that has just recently emerged in the northwest. There was an outbreak of this virus at the Puyallup Fair in Washington State in 2009 that was responsible for the death of cattle exhibited at the fair. Each exhibitor must consider the potential outcome and enter animals at their own risk. The Fair Board, OSU Extension Service, Hood River County School District, or Thomas L. Gilliom, D.V.M. will not be held liable if the exhibitor enters an animal in the fair and it contracts MCF. Malignant Catarrhal fever is a herpes virus carried by sheep. The host (sheep) is clinically unaffected by the infection with the virus, but serves as a source of infection for susceptible animals including cattle and pigs. Effects of this disease are extremely rare, although it is estimated that approximately 80% of the sheep population are carriers. The average incubation period is 30 to 60 days. It is usually fatal to cattle. While precautions are taken to decrease the transfer of risk between species at the county fair, exhibitors of non-terminal animals need to be aware of potential risk and decide to exhibit at the county fair based on these facts. If you have questions, please contact Dr. Thomas Gilliom, D.V.M. Horses All horses exhibiting or participating in County Fair should be current on four-way vaccinations and rhinopneumonitis, and strangles is strongly recommended. Horses showing cuts, signs of bleeding, or lameness of any kind will be refused entry. Horses showing any signs of productive cough, conjunctivitis, and/or nasal discharge may also be refused entry upon examination. Mares that are in season should receive special care by owner to avoid injury to other animals. Dogs Members bringing dogs to the County Fair are required to have their dogs currently vaccinated for rabies, DHL or DHLP and Parvo Virus. Bordatella (kennel cough) is highly recommended. If a dog has a visible skin or physical problem, a certificate from a veterinarian is required indicating that the condition is not contagious or harmful to the dog during competition. No health certificate is required. Females in season will be shown at the end of the day. Signed: Thomas L. Gilliom, D.V.M. County Veterinarian LIVESTOCK RULES 1.

Many a college education in Oregon has been assisted from the sale of livestock at auctions where good citizens have invested in their community s young people. 3. As increased urbanization has come to Oregon, more fairs are familiarizing their patrons with animals through the use of petting zoos. Here, children have an opportunity to get close to animals normally under the supervision of 4-H and FFA members. This is often one of the highlights of a small youngster s visit to the fair. 4. Rodeos are as traditional as fairs themselves. They are professionally performed and rate as one of a fair s most popular spectator events. 5. Considering the importance of animals to Oregon fairs, it shall be the policy of members of the Oregon Fairs Association to treat all animals at the fair in a humane manner. Animals shall be provided clean bedding, adequate food and water, and fair exhibitors shall keep their animals from harm. 6. It shall further be the policy of OFA members to protect animals from mistreatment by the general public and to assure the safety of fair patrons. 7. All persons in charge of fair activities involving animals shall be made aware of this policy. Adopted by the Oregon Fairs Association on October 21, Supreme Champion Breeding Market Project Cash awards will be presented to the Supreme Champion Breeding Animal in beef, sheep, swine and meat goats.

The market animals will be in addition to those shown in breeding classes. (Only one market animal in each class may be shown. If you weighed 2 animals at Pre-Fair, you must decide before coming to fair which animal you will be bringing to fair.) Auction sales are subject to available market. If there is no market, animals will not be auctioned. 2. Weight requirements are as follows: hogs , lambs , goats (either sex) 60 lbs. or more (born on or after October 1); beef, a minimum of 1,000 pounds. Animals will be weighed as they arrive at the fairgrounds. That weight will stand. Animals weighing less than the minimum or more than the maximum allowed may not be sold through the auction. Once animal has been officially weighed and weight has been determined, animal will be penned. All lightweight and heavy weight 4-H and FFA market animals are required to be shown by their owners in their appropriate conformation and showmanship classes. Prior to show, scales are checked and certified by State Weights and Measures Division. No re-weighs in small animals. 3. Animals meeting weight limitations will be evaluated by a qualified judge who will estimate the live quality grades. Market animals must make the following grades in order to sell: steers- select or better; sheep- low choice or better; hogs- number 1 or number 2. Rabbits, poultry and goats must have a quality grade. 4. Market beef must be steers and must be dehorned. Exhibitors showing sheep may show either wethers or ewe lambs. Exhibitors showing swine may show either barrows or gilts. Exhibitors showing goats may show either wethers or does. 5. Animals will be sold at the official gross weight, less four percent shrink on beef and a two percent shrink on sheep, swine, and goats. 6. There will be a 2.5 percent deduction from gross sale price of each animal to help cover auction expenses. 7. FFA and 4-H will be judged separately, but sold together. Sold first will be 4-H, odd numbered years, FFA, even numbered years. Animals will be sold as placed. 8. All 4-H and FFA members must exhibit a completed up to date record book

Evidence of ownership must accompany each beef exhibit and this evidence must be turned in to the show chairman when the animals are entered. 10. All breeds will be shown together and separated into classes by weight. 11. To be eligible for the sale, steers must be owned by the 4-H and FFA member by March 1; lambs, hogs, and goats must be owned by May 1; and market rabbits must be owned by June 30; and market poultry must be owned by June Animals, which have been previously sold through a finished market animal sale connected with a fair, or livestock show are not eligible for exhibition. 13.

Artificial coloring of any animal, or any artificial means of removing or remedying physical defects of conformation in animals such as lifting or filling under the skin will be considered as fraud and deception. All animals giving evidence of such treatment before or after slaughter will result in the owner being barred from future shows and all awards and sales proceeds being withheld from current show. 20. When a person purchases an animal for his or her own use and the carcass does not grade on the rail as estimated by the judge, it will be the purchaser s responsibility to accept the carcass as graded. 21.

If problem situations do arise, the 4-H agent or FFA advisor will oversee appropriate action to correct the problem. 22. Membership and participation in both 4-H and FFA is strongly encouraged if or when interest and needs of the members are being served. It is strongly recommended that project enterprises not be the same species in each program. However, when circumstances indicate it would be in the best interest of the youth.
