CCSC Horse Improvement Session
Spookproofing Sunday, July 14 at 10 am Cedar County Fairgrounds
Activities will be directed by Larry Bradley, CCSC Member and experienced local horseman.
Expect to have fun, learn, and get a good workout for you and your horse! This clinic is intended to create a bond of trust and respect between the horse and rider. The goal is not to force the horse over and through obstacles, but to teach enhanced communication in a variety of challenging situations. Activities will be safely managed by slowly increasing the degree of difficulty of each obstacle, beginning with horses in hand and leading to riders in the saddle! Great for all riding disciplines! Cedar County Saddle Club will be holding several “Horse Improvement” sessions, Trail Rides and Fun Shows in 2013. For more information about the above Horse Improvement Session • Email: heidelshon_gsp@hotmail.com • Call Larry Bradley at 563-370-3454 $40 participation fee. Must be paid in advance to reserve a spot. Limited to 20 horses/riders. 37

4H/FFA General Livestock Rules 1. Should general and special rules conflict, the latter will govern. Exhibitors failing to comply with any of the rules are subject to all premium cancellations, disqualification from future participation in the Cedar County Fair. Interpretation of rules, when necessary shall be the responsibility of the Youth Committee and/or Show Superintendents. 2. Only livestock projects, which have been enrolled by the exhibitor and identified in 4Honline by the designated deadline of May 15 (February 1 for market beef and May 1 for non-derby swine) may be exhibited. This applies to all animals with the exception of pets, rabbits and poultry which may have less restrictive identification rules. 101
All livestock must meet ownership/possession identifications and requirements outlined in 4-H 202. Joint members partnership entries will not be accepted with the exception of horses and dogs as outlined in 4-H 202. Animals can NOT be identified as both 4-H and FFA. Animals can NOT be identified by more than one 4-H/FFA member. 3. Animals offered for sale in an auction are considered to have changed ownership even if bought back by the original owner or if the owner refuses a bid or says “No Sale”. All animals offered for sale are terminated as 4-H projects. 4. First and Second place winners in individual classes are eligible to compete for Championships and Reserve Championships, provided they received a purple or blue award. 5. Exhibitors in 4-H classes are not eligible to exhibit in a similar department of the FFA divisions or vice-versa. 6. Animals must be shown as identified – 4-H or FFA not both. 7. No member will be eligible for this show who does not take entire charge and care of the project in the show ring except in case of illness or for some reason approved by the Superintendent.

Animals with disposition problems may be asked to leave the fair grounds at the discretion of the Cedar County Youth Committee and/or show superintendent. 10. SUBSTITUE SHOWMAN – Excusing a member from personally exhibiting his/ her animal(s) defeats one of the important objectives of 4-H work. Hence, the Management does not approve the use of substitute showmen except in extreme cases. If a member is injured or is seriously ill at the time of the show or is involved in another fair activity with a non flexible schedule at which their presence is mandatory. In the case of military obligations, official orders must be on file in the Extension Office prior to the start of the fair. The substitute showman must be an eligible Cedar County 4-H or FFA member and approved in advance of the show by show superintendents and/or the Extension Office. Participation in school or school activities will not be considered. For those who are ill or injured, a doctor’s note is highly recommended. An exhibitor, who has more than one animal in a class, need not secure approval for another eligible showman to exhibit one of his/her animals. However, it is expected such cases will be brought to the attention of the clerk checking animals into the check-in area or show ring. 11. CODE OF ETHICS – Youth are expected to be sincere, honest and act in sportsmanlike ways at all times. Youth represent the entire program and their behavior reflects on their parents, leaders, club and the entire youth program.
