Be Sure to Mark Your Calendar for next year’s Fair!

July 9-14, 2019 www.redrivervalleyfair.com

WELCOME TO THE 2018 RED RIVER VALLEY FAIR! It’s almost “Fair Time”! Before you know it, opening day of the 2018 Red River Valley Fair will be upon us and all the fabulous sights, sounds and smells will fill the air at the Fairgrounds in West Fargo, North Dakota. It will once again be time to experience the Thrill of all the things that the Fair has to offer!

But before we get to that Thrilling opening day, we’ll have hundreds of competitive entries and exhibits assembled throughout the grounds for all of our attendees to see, enjoy, and in some cases, marvel at.

In order for that to happen, we need your entry and here is how you can do that. The Fair’s Premium Book is the “how to” of becoming a Fair exhibitor and/or competitor. In the following pages, you will be able to find all of the information you need to know to enable you to join the thousands of other folks who have entered one of our Fair competitions over our 113 year history. Whether it is livestock, an agricultural or horticultural entry, a competitive exhibit in one of our arts and/or crafts competitions, you’ll find all the rules and forms right here.

We are happy that you have an interest in entering one of the Red River Valley Fair’s many competitions.

By doing so, you help continue the tradition of the great American Agricultural Fair, a tradition that goes all the way back to the early part of the 19th century. Thanks for your interest in the Red River Valley Fair!

We have another THRILLING lineup on the Bud Light Grandstand including: Sawyer Brown, Bush with Pop Evil, Aaron Watson with High Valley, Brothers Osborne, Seether and to finish out Fair Week - Auto Racing.

Free on-grounds entertainment includes: WaterBark featuring Super Dogs, Human Acrobats and Stunt Divers, Action Sports Live featuring motocross, BMX, skateboarding and a trampoline wall, Max Power the 9’ Robot, Willy’s Washboard Jamboree and many locally recognized entertainers.

Murphy Brother’s Spectacular Attractions and Reed Midway will again provide you with exciting thrill rides and carnival midway entertainment.

The Red River Valley Fair strives each year to make the Fair bigger, better and more enjoyable than ever before. You are invited to come and enjoy yourself, view the many exhibits, and participate in the various activities. Our special thanks to all of you who assist in making the Red River Valley Fair the success it always is. Your interest, cooperation, trust, and time are very much appreciated!

The success of the Red River Valley Fair is dependent upon our giving you, the general public, something that every member of the family can enjoy. On behalf of our Fair Family, we are looking forward to seeing you, your family and friends at the FAIR - July 10 - 15, 2018!

SEE YOU AT THE FAIR! Sincerely,

Bryan K. Schulz, CFE - General Manger Red River Valley Fair Association

“The Red River Valley Fair is a livestock exhibition which showcases superior animals. Animals which are not in ideal condition do not represent agriculture at its finest and diminish the public’s perception of agriculture. Additionally, it is important to protect all livestock in attendance by minimizing the risk of exposure to contagious disease. As such, animals that appear to be affected by a contagious disease or that are exhibiting any condition affecting their health or comfort, in the professional opinion of the inspecting veterinarian, will not be permitted on the fairgrounds.  Any animal with evidence of contagious, infectious disease will be dismissed from the fairgrounds immediately. This includes animals showing signs of localized disorders such as club lamb fungus, ringworm, or other dermatophytosis (infectious skin condition), and warts, as well as systemic diseases of the respiratory or gastrointestinal system, such as pneumonia or diarrhea.  Any animal with an obvious physical defect or deformity, including, but not limited to prolapses, open sores, eye lesions, lameness or other physical injury, shall be removed from the Fairgrounds immediately.  Animals who are recovering from localized skin disorders will be permitted if:  There are no open sores  Hair is beginning to grow back (as determined by the on-site inspecting veterinarian).

Livestock exhibitors at the Red River Valley Fair should present copies of all veterinary prescriptions for medications that have been given to market animals to the species superintendent, and any livestock medications brought to the Fair must bear a prescription label.”

The Board of Directors reserves the right, without notice, to amend and/or arbitrarily determine and settle all matters in regard thereto.  All animals must be entered and shown in the name of the registered owner and cannot be entered in more than one single lot.  All animal owners are responsible for the welfare of their animals. Exhibitors are expected to provide adequate feed, water, bedding and housing for the comfort of their animals. Exhibitors are responsible for making arrangements for care if they are unable to be present. We encourage the humane treatment of animals and abuse will not be tolerated. The comfort and safety of the animal must be addressed throughout the show. Non-stressed animals will perform better for the handler. Exhibitors are expected to handle their animals in a gentle and calm manner and not create undue excitement in the vicinity of other livestock or persons.  Registration papers for each purebred animal must be shown if requested by the superintendent. Tattoos of beef animals will be inspected. All beef animals must have a legible tattoo or may be dismissed.  Exhibits must remain on display until released by Fair officials or any prize money and deposits become forfeited.  Advertising: The distribution of hand bills or other advertisements is strictly prohibited and no tacking or posting of advertising bills cards, etc. will be permitted on the Fairgrounds.  No Exhibitor is allowed to win more than 2 prizes in any one class. This includes classes that are divided due to number of entries.  Only animals that have been awarded first or second place in their proper class may compete for championship awards. In judging championships, the awards will be made to the animals that the judge considers the best type of their breed or class.  Animals not entered for competition or exhibition will not be allowed in exhibition barns.  The use of twine to enhance a beef animal’s appearance will be cause for immediate dismissal from the Fair and forfeiture of all premiums.  Exhibitors, their families, coaches, advisors, etc. will cooperate with the Superintendent and Fair Employees or they will be removed with no refund of entry fees and any premiums earned will be forfeited.

Such protest must state plainly the cause of complaint or appeal and must be filed with the fair manager within 24 hours of show completion. All expenses incurred because of protest will be the responsibility of protester regardless of results.

No complaint or appeal based upon the statement that the judge or judges are incompetent will be considered. Where a protest is made against competition of an animal, notice should be filed with the superintendent of the department before the class is passed upon, so that the judges may be instructed to place a reserve award, that premiums be properly distributed in the event the protest is sustained.

In the case where special premiums, trophies or awards are offered by breed associations or others, detailed reports must be filled out by the superintendent indicating the source of the award, the winner of the award, and the distribution of the award.

Each superintendent must take charge of the books and return them promptly to the fair manager’s office as soon as each is judged. No changes will be allowed in the judge’s book unless by order of the Board. It shall be the duty of the superintendent at the close of the Fair to make such suggestions for improvements as said occur to them during the Fair.

Fast Driving or Riding of any description will not be permitted within the grounds. Any violation of this rule will be severely dealt with by the Management and the guilty person removed from the grounds. Automobiles are prohibited in any section of the grounds whenever safety demands.

Registered Angus Steer Rules Junior Breed Assn. Division To be eligible for premium participation by the American Angus Association for Angus Steer Classes, the following terms must be met:  A minimum of ten (10) head must be shown in the regular steer shows and terminal steer show to receive American Angus Association premium participation.  Steers must be born on or after January 1, 2017. A minimum weight of 900 pounds is required.  All entries must be registered in the sole name of the exhibitor with the American Angus Association and the date of transfer of ownership must conform to the individual show’s requirements.  Exhibitors must have the original registration certificate on each animal available for inspection at the show.  Any animal not having a legible title, or one having a tattoo which is not in agreement with the registration certificate, will be barred from competition.  The Champion and Reserve Champion Angus Steer must be blood typed, and all entries are subject to blood typing for parentage verification at the discretion of the American Angus Association.  Each exhibitor is subject to Part 3, Section IX of the Association’s rules entitled “Eligibility Conformation and Structure of Animals Presented for Exhibition.” The exhibition of cattle displaying false hair or graphite will not be allowed.

Blood Typing for Parentage Verification Under the Associations Rules, Part 3, Section Xl, Rule 2, each animal for which entry application (registration) is received, may be subjected to a blood type test to verify both ACCURACY OF PARENTAGE and TRADITIONAL ANGUS BLOOD TYPE. Staff of the American Angus Association must supervise the collection of blood samples. Animals are often sampled at shows, fairs, or events where the American Angus Association contributes premiums or where Association personnel participate. Grand Champion and Reserve Grand Champion Angus Steers will be blood typed at all such shows in which the American Angus Association pays premiums. If a recorded parent is excluded (as a parent) as a result of blood type, the owner may request, at his own expense, the Association to determine the actual parent.

Failure to determine the Sire and Dam disqualifies the animal’s eligibility in the Angus Herd book and the registration certificate becomes null and void. Any animal with a non-traditional blood type is ineligible for the Angus Herd book.

This is one of the most prestigious trophies available to the junior membership.

We ask that each of you remember that this award is available and the show has been a success due the dedication of people like Pete Frederickson.

On behalf of the Red River Valley Fair Association we ask that you keep your livestock areas clean and well maintained. We recommend that the majority of your cleaning is done prior to 8:00 am or after 8:00 pm. This will help us prevent the possible transmission of E. Coli to our guests.
