Welcome

It is with great joy and heartfelt excitement that we welcome you to the 75th anniversary of the Greene County Fair! Over the past seven and a half decades, this cherished event has become a cornerstone of our community, celebrating our agricultural heritage, local talent, and the timehonored traditions that make Greene County so special.

This year, as we mark this significant milestone, we reflect on the generations of families, farmers, and fairgoers who have come together to create memories, foster friendships, and preserve the spirit of community that defines our fair. From livestock shows and craft exhibits to thrilling carnival rides and the irresistible aroma of fair food, there is something for everyone to enjoy.

We are especially proud to honor the legacy of all who have contributed to the fair’s success—our dedicated volunteers, local businesses, sponsors, exhibitors, entertainers, and, most importantly, you, our guests. Your continued support and participation have made the Greene County Fair not just an event but a celebration of community and shared pride.

Last year, the Greene County Fair was honored to be named the Champion of Champions Fair in the State of Tennessee. This top award, given by the Tennessee Association of Fairs, represents the hard work and passion of the countless volunteers who help to create this annual event.

This year’s lineup promises to be unforgettable! Don’t miss out on the live music performances, exciting competitions, and new attractions added just for the occasion. And of course, we invite you to explore the many booths showcasing the best of Greene County’s crafts, foods, businesses, and agricultural excellence.

As we celebrate 75 years of tradition, we also look forward to the future, cherishing the opportunity to grow and evolve while staying true to the values that have brought us here. Together, let’s make this anniversary one to remember and continue building lasting memories for years to come.

Thank you for joining us in this joyous celebration. We hope you’ll find fun, laughter, and a deep sense of community pride as you experience all the Greene County Fair has to offer. We look forward to seeing you there!

The Board of Directors of the Greene County Fair would like to express their appreciation to the following:

• The Governor, The Commissioner of Agriculture, the State Legislature, Town of Greeneville and Greene County Government for their support of the fair.

• All of our advertisers. The publishing of the Greene County Fair Catalog entails a great deal of hard work and considerable cost. Most of this cost is offset by the ads purchased by the various businesses displayed in the catalog. We would ask that you patronize them throughout the year.

• The Greeneville Emergency Rescue Squad. Their able handling of parking each year makes your visit to the fair more enjoyable.

• The many volunteers who give so much time and energy, and without whose efforts the fair would be impossible.

GENERAL RULES & REGULATIONS

Bedding for livestock will not be provided. NO Dogs Allowed in Barn except for Service Dogs

The Greene County Fair management reserves to its Board the final and absolute right to interpret these rules and regulations and arbitrarily settle and determine all maters, questions and differences in regard thereto, or otherwise arising out of, connected with, or incidental to the Fair.

ALL PREMIUM CHECKS MUST BE CASHED WITHIN SIXTY (60) DAYS OF ISSUE

All livestock exhibitors will be required to purchase an exhibitor ticket for $10.00 and pay an entry fee, if applicable, for each animal entered. Feed, care and

bedding of animals must be provided by exhibitors.

No animals can be entered or exhibited as purebred unless same has been recorded in the recognized books of record for their respective breeds, and exhibitors must produce certificates of registry at the request of the superintendent in charge any time during the Fair.

JUNIOR SHOW RULES & REGULATIONS

The Greene County Fair Livestock Committee has made the decision to allow any person under 21 years of age to exhibit their animal unassisted in the Junior Show.

Only animals officially recorded in the name of the exhibitor before July 1st of the current year may be shown and the registration certificate of each animal shall be submitted to the Superintendent of this show. All animals must be registered with the exception of commercial market lambs, heifers and steers. Application for registration or transfer will not be accepted. No joint ownership will be accepted for Junior entries.

Juniors must purchase an exhibitor ticket.

No entry fee will be charged in the junior department and the stall space will be provided free. Juniors not participating in Open Show may leave after 10:00 p.m. If an animal is to be entered in the open show, the regular stall rent will be charged, and the animal will be released as indicated under each open show class.

CARE OF EXHIBITS

The Fair will not be responsible for any injury or damage to livestock, crop or other exhibit but will take reasonable precautions to guard against loss or damage. Exhibitors must provide feed, care and bedding for livestock.

GREENE COUNTY FAIR LIVESTOCK SHOW

The President of the Fair shall have supervision and control of all exhibits and exhibitions during the Fair, whether in the buildings, arena, or grounds, and reserves the right to prescribe the dimensions and regulate the positions of all signs, to control the distribution of advertising matter and generally to direct the arrangements of articles on exhibition so far as appearance. All instructions shall come from him or through authorized officials.

SHOW RING

The superintendents of the livestock departments will exclude entries from all competition should there be embarrassing or unnecessary delay on the part of exhibitors in bringing animals into the show ring.

JUDGES AND AWARDS

There must be at least two (2) exhibits in each class in order to obtain first place premiums in Open Shows.

In classes where exhibits are made by only one exhibitor, the Fair will pay only second premium money, and that only where the entry is worthy.

The right is reserved to withhold the prized awarded in every case in which it shall appear to the Fair that the regulations have not been complied with, or that fraud or deception has been attempted, or where the article or animal is not worthy, and decision shall be final and binding on all parties.

Judges are especially instructed not to award premiums to any animal or article because of its presence. It must be individually worthy. It is not the policy of the Fair to encourage indifferent production, and no premium shall be awarded to any animal or article that does not possess high intrinsic merit.

Judges will apply to the executive officer in charge of the department in which they are to act in all cases of doubt or difficulty.

Regard will be had to symmetry, size, form, action, constitution, vigor, and general characteristics of the various breeds with reasonable allowance for age; due regard will also be paid to carriage, style, and general refinement that donates high breeding, points which, while not weighing in the scale points, add value to animals when being sold for breeding purposes. In groups encouragement will be given to uniformity of breed type.

The Fair reserves the right to discriminate against both excessive obesity, which cannot be a profitable condition for breeding animals, and excessive leanness, in which condition animals are unfit for exhibition.

All animals must be shown and paraded as directed by the superintendent or judge, and any exhibitor refusing to comply with instructions or superintendent or judge or refusing to give any information required, may be ordered from the ring, and stock excluded from competition. If an exhibitor fails to exhibit animals at request of superintendent of department he forfeits his prize money.

Any animal deemed unruly or dangerous by the livestock superintendent may be removed from the show ring!

The ages of all animals must be given and satisfactorily verified if required. The ages of cattle will be computed as specified in special rules printed in departments.

Any exhibitor attempting or in any way interfering with the judges during their adjudications will be promptly excluded from competition, and the premiums awarded will be withheld.

The decision of the awarding judges shall be final.

Judges in the several departments shall give the reasons, if desired for their decisions, embracing the value and desirable qualities of the animals or articles to which the premiums are awarded.

Department superintendents will hand in the list of awards to the Secretary as soon as possible, and make their extended reports afterwards. They are requested to report fully upon all objects of merit and make such recommendations as circumstances may suggest, but not award extra prizes.

SHOW RING CODE OF ETHICS FOR ALL DAIRY BREEDS

The showing of registered dairy cattle is an important part of the promotion, merchandising and breeding program of many breeders.

Additionally, it is an important part of the program of the Purebred Dairy Cattle Association to stimulate and sustain interest in breeding registered dairy cattle. This relates to both spectators and exhibitors. In this connection, the PDCA believes that it is in the best interest of the breeders of registered dairy cattle to maintain a reputation of integrity and to present a wholesome and progressive image of their cattle in the show-ring. It recognizes that there are certain practices in the proper care and management of dairy cattle, which are necessary in the course of moving dairy cattle to and between shows that are advisable to keep them in a sound, healthy condition so that they might be presented in the show-ring in a natural, normal appearance and condition. Conversely, it

recognizes certain practices in the cataloging, handling and presentation of cattle in the show-ring which are acceptable.

The following practices or procedures are considered unacceptable and defined as being unethical in the showing of registered dairy cattle:

• Misrepresenting the age and/or milking status of the animal for the class in which it is shown. In any female classes, animals may not be exhibited that are in milk due to unnaturally induced lactation.

• Balancing the udder by any means other than by leaving naturally produced milk in any or all quarters.

• Setting the teats with a mechanical contrivance or with the use of a chemical preparation.

• Treating or massaging any part of the animal’s body, particularly the udder, internally or externally with an irritant, counterirritant, or other substance to temporarily improve conformation or produce unnatural animation.

• Minimizing the effects of crampiness by feeding or injecting drugs, depressants or applying packs or using an artificial contrivance or therapeutic treatment except normal exercise.

• Blocking the nerves to the foot to prevent limping by injecting drugs. Striking the animal to cause swelling in a depressed area.

• Surgery of any kind performed to change the natural contour of appearance of the animal’s body, hide or hair. Not included is the removal of warts, teats and horns, clipping and dressing of hair and trimming of hooves.

• Insertion of foreign material under the skin.

• Changing the color of hair at any point, spot or area on animal’s body.

• The use of alcoholic beverage in the feed or administered as a drench.

• Administration of drug of any kind or description internally or externally prior

to entering the show ring, except for treating a recognized disease or injury and for tranquilizing bulls that may otherwise be dangerous or females in heat. For the purpose of this Code, the term “drug” shall mean any substance, the sale, possession of use of which is controlled by license under federal, state of local laws or regulations and any substance commonly used by the medical or veterinary professions which affect the circulatory, respiratory or central nervous system of a cow.

• Criticizing or interfering with the judge, show management or other exhibitors while in the show-ring or other conduct detrimental to the breed or show.

• In keeping with the basic philosophy of The Purebred Dairy Cattle Association, ethics are an individual responsibility of the owner of each animal shown. Violations of this code are subject to the disciplinary of the appropriate dairy breed association.
