Dear Exhibitor: The 2012 Siskiyou Golden Fair is just around the corner and we are excited that you want to be a part of the “Fun in the Mountain Sun”. This exhibitor handbook has been completely revised over the last couple of years and has many changes again this year. Please read all the local rules and especially those that pertain to your chosen divisions and classes. In the past, The Siskiyou Golden Fair received a significant portion of our budget from the State of California. Last year, fair funding was eliminated by the Governor and this year’s State budget does not include any funding for California Fairs including our Siskiyou Golden Fair.We need your help to continue providing the great competitions, attractions, educational opportunities and fun that has been a part of the fair here in Siskiyou County for 153 years. Since 1859 our culture, history and heritage has been on display each fall at the Fair and you can help carry on this tradition for generations to come. Here is how you can help: • Use the new FREE online entry process. Save yourself money and us time by using the new online entry process. Paper entries will still be accepted but exhibitors will be assessed a $5.00 processing fee to offset the labor cost. ($5.00 per exhibitor not per entry) • Carefully read and follow the entry guidelines and rules. Make sure when filling out the paper entry forms that all boxes are filled with accurate information. • Don’t wait to the last minute to enter. The dollars spent on extra staff time can be used to bring more and higher quality exhibits to the fair. With the addition of online entries, The Siskiyou Golden Fair will have computers available for online entering Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays in June and July. The dates are: • June – 11,13,15,18,20,22,25,27,29 • July – 2,(July 4 holiday),6,9,11,(13 entry deadline day) In addition to the hundreds of classes offered annually, we have a new division for 2012, Senior Boar Goats and new classes in Ag‐Hort, Baked Foods, Clothing/Textiles, Fine Arts, Photography, Senior Beef, Junior Sheep and a Small Animal Fashion Show! Be sure to check out the new livestock show schedule and “Bejewel a Brassiere” for breast cancer awareness or make a “Quilt from the Heart”. As we work through the changes brought on by budget woes remember that this is your Siskiyou Golden Fair. The Board of Directors and staff of the 10th D.A.A. are working hard to make 2012 the best fair ever and if you have any questions please call the fair office for assistance. Sincerely, Cliff Munson, CEO 4 H Exhibitor Handbook Siskiyou Golden Fair - August 8-12 | 2012

LIVESTOCK AND HORSE DEPARTMENTS JUNIOR LIVESTOCK EXHIBITOR SHOW RING ETIQUETTE The following are appropriate etiquette rules regarding your conduct and behavior in the show ring. If for any reason you violate these rules, it may result in your ineligibility to show your animal and to sell your animal in the Junior Livestock Auction.
1. You should not feed, train and/or care for the animal because you are teaching your child responsibility. 2. You shall forgive your child for making mistakes because everyone makes mistakes. 3. You shall not get mad if your child forgets items in the show box because you have forgotten things yourself. 4. You shall assist show management because this is a difficult job and they are doing it for your child. 5. You shall make sure your child is on time for all show activities, hence not making others wait for you. 6. You shall make sure your child's entry forms and registration papers are in order and filed with the fair office by the designated date and time. 7. You shall teach your child that winning a blue ribbon is a desirable goal, but making friends and learning from them along the way is a more worthy goal. 8. You shall not complain about the judge because it is his or her opinion that is being sought. 9. You shall remember that livesock projects are teaching projects, not necessarily money‐making projects. 10. You shall remember that the livestock project is a family project that shall be enjoyed and supported by the entire family.
1. You will show respect for the judge, fair management, your animal and your fellow exhibitors at all times. Disrespectful behavior will not be tolerated. 2. No baseball caps or headwear other than that which is standard to your uniform. SISKIYOU GOLDEN FAIR ‐ AUGUST 8‐12, 2012 Siskiyou Golden Fair - August 8-12 | 2012

The Junior Auction Executive Committee will consist of three auction committee directors, the auction committee president and the fair livestock superintendent.

9. To sell in the auction each and every exhibitor, or their parent/leader must contact an auction representative in the Livestock Office Thursday between 3:00 and 5:00 p.m. for every market animal to be sold in the auction. Individuals with market beef have 30 minutes after the market beef class on Friday to make contact. Failure to comply with the time schedule will result in a $20 fine (deducted from auction checks) and the Executive Committee of the Junior Livestock Auction Committee may resolve conflicts with the higher placing entry having priority and then the heaviest weight within the same group placing. When two or more species are eligible the larger will sell. A draft auction sales list shall be posted on the Livestock Office late Saturday evening if available.
10. The sales list for the auction will be made as follows: The judge will determine the Grand Champion and Reserve Grand Champion Market Animals from among the eligible animals in each of the beef, sheep, swine, rabbits, poultry, bred dairy heifer and beef replacement heifer divisions. They will be sold first, when that species is sold, other beef, sheep and swine will be sold by random drawing. Species will be sold in the following order: steers, sheep, goats, rabbits, poultry, bred beef replacement heifers, bred dairy heifers and hogs. Rabbit and poultry sellers will be responsible for butchering, dressing and delivering the fryers to buyers.
11. All Grand Champion and Reserve Champion market animals eligible for the auction are required to sell. 12. The Parade of Champions will begin at 10:00 a.m. in the auction arena. All Grand and Reserve Champion animals will be required to participate. 13. Decoration of sale animals is allowed only if animals are cleaned of all decorations immediately after the sale. Absolutely NO glitter or oily substance of any kind is allowed! Animals not clean and dry of all decorations will not be loaded. 14. There will be no reselling of animals during the auction, unless it is at the buyers request for a cause approved by the JLAC Executive Committee.
15. Sellers of steers sold in the auction must be on hand in the barns at 3:00 p.m. on the day of sale to bring your animals to the loading area when called on. Members failing to be on hand at the barns may be fined a $25.00 loading fee deducted from the auction check. 16. All beef, sheep, goats, and swine will be slaughtered at the plant designated by the Junior Livestock Auction Committee. None will be held at the fairgrounds for personal slaughter or shipped to another plant. 17. Certain deductions will be made from the income of sale animals in order to defray expenses of the sale. For all species, 6% is deducted and goes to the Junior Livestock Auction Committee. In the case of 4‐H members .5% goes to the County Club Council and for FFA .5% goes to the FFA Chapter.
