NOTE: The deposit will be returned if the protest is upheld. If the protest is upheld, the violator may be held liable for any portion of the direct costs incurred by the fair in the course of the protest resolution. Failure to reimburse the fair shall be cause for disallowing future entries in any of the network of California fairs. 3. Given the short duration of the fair: a. The protestor shall make every effort to file the protest prior to judging. All protests must be filed in writing within 24 hours of the time of the cause of the protest and before conclusion of fair. b. The fair will make every effort to resolve protests as quickly as possible. All exhibitors by entering an exhibit and all persons by filing a protest agree to cooperate with Fair Management to resolve protests in a timely manner. c. Protests shall be adjudicated by Fair Management and/or members of Board of Directors. 4. Any exhibit involved in a filed protest before or during judging is eligible to compete until the protest is resolved. 5. Classes that involve a protested exhibit will not become official until the protest is resolved. a. In championship or special award classes that involve the protested exhibit the judge shall also select 1st and 2nd runners-up in case of disqualification. b. In the case of protest, the unofficial judging results may be used to prepare the sale list and other necessary information. 6. At the discretion of the Chief Executive Officer judging can be delayed to allow time for the fair to resolve the protest if to do so does not unreasonably delay or disrupt the operations of the remainder of the fair judging and auction events. 7. Prior to judging the affected class, fairs may announce that an entry has been protested. 8. All questions concerning competition or non-protestable disputes or differences with staff or the exhibition not provided for under the State or Local Rules shall be referred to the CEO or their designee, whose decision shall be final. 9. Violations of State Rules may be appealed to F&E in writing. 10. An individual may appeal to F&E only after adjudication at the local level and only if: a. The decision upholds a Local Rule that circumvents or is not in the spirit of a State Rule(s); b. The individual can substantiate new and credible information that was not available at the time of the local decision; or c. There was inappropriate adjudication at the local level that may have included conflict of interest, lack of due process, or a significant misinterpretation of rules. 11. A fair or state, national or international organization or subdivision thereof which has a significant stake in the interpretation of rules affecting the network of California fairs may make an appeal directly to F&E concerning multiple-fair issues, industry-wide issues, unavoidable conflict of interest or assistance in enforcing its own organization rules. 12. No protest will be accepted unless it: a. Is filed or received, in writing, with a signed original and a signed duplicate copy; b. Clearly states which rule has been violated; c. States when the protestor first became aware of the facts and rule violation; d. States the facts relied upon for the basis of the protest; e. States that the protestor will cooperate with the investigation of the protest and that the protestor will be available and agrees to attend any hearing held to resolve the protest at the time and place directed by F&E;
c. Disqualify any exhibit that is in his/her opinion hazardous to public safety; d. Examine the animals before entering the show ring; and/or e. Refuse to make award to any animal that shows visible evidence of disease, deformity, or lameness. No award will be made to exhibits eliminated under any of the above instances. 5. The judge may not waive State Rules. 6. The judge’s decision is final. Fair Management may not request any changes in judges’ rulings. 7. To encourage high standards, the judge shall award first, second, third place, etc. according to merit. If without merit, the judge shall make no award under any circumstances. The judge may award championships or other awards at his/her discretion for superior exhibits. This applies whether there are one or more exhibits in class. IV. AWARDS AND SCORING 1. Fair Management is not responsible for errors on entry forms. No exhibitor shall be entitled to an award that has been disallowed as the result of his/her own error. 2. All divisions or classes will be judged under the American system and/or Danish system as stated in the fair’s exhibitor handbook. 3. State “Judging Standards” are to be used where applicable. Local judging standards may be used if published in the exhibitor handbook. 4. Cash awards will be paid only as recorded on the signed Judging Sheet and only to the exhibitor. 5. Fair Management shall withhold the payment of awards for exhibits that are determined ineligible under State and Local Rules and may recover awards that have been paid for ineligible exhibits. 6. No exhibitor shall receive more than two cash awards in any one class using American judging system. (See definition of exhibitor.) a. When an exhibitor earns more than two awards in a class, the exhibitor will receive the two highest cash awards, and the lesser cash awards will be moved down the placings to other exhibitors; ribbons will be awarded as placed. b. Any difference in payment limits under the Danish system of judging shall be printed in the exhibitor handbook. c. When the fair combines classes, an exhibitor is entitled to two cash awards per each class that was combined. Judges should determine special awards as printed before combining. 7. Sweepstakes shall be awarded as specified in the exhibitor handbook based upon these scoring guidelines: a. First award - 5 points; Second award - 3 points; Third award - 1 point. b. Sweepstakes shall be awarded only when at least three separate exhibitors have achieved at least a combined point total of 30. c. To receive sweepstakes awards, an exhibitor must have a minimum of ten points. d. Sweepstakes points will be credited only to the exhibitor whose name appears on the entry form. e. There are separate sweepstakes or high point rules for horse shows, which may be determined by the fair. 8. Ties which cannot be broken by the judge will be processed as follows (See also Horse Show Department): a. 2-way tie for 1st place: Combine 1st and 2nd place money and divide equally between the two 1st-place exhibitors. The 3rd highest finisher receives 3rd place money etc. b. 3-way tie for 1st place: Combine 1st, 2nd and 3rd place money and divide equally between the three exhibitors. 9.

Not required for entry for 4-H, FFA and Open Exhibitors.

Estimated calving date (September 15 thru December 15)
Spring Calving Heifer:
Estimated calving date (January 1 thru May 1) Member Eligibility To be eligible for this Beef Replacement Heifer Project the exhibitor must be a member in good standing of a 4-H Club or FFA Chapter in Modoc or Siskiyou counties in the 10-A District, or be a qualified independent junior exhibitor from Modoc or Siskiyou counties in the 10A District. Heifer Eligibility Registered or grade beef replacement heifers are eligible projects. Grade heifers must be without horns. The sire of the heifer must be of a beef breed. If an exhibitor declares that the heifer is registered, the registration papers must be signed off and submitted to the Livestock Office before the heifer will be allowed to sell. Heifers must be bred and purchased from a breeder in Modoc, Siskiyou, or Klamath Counties. The age limit for a heifer is a minimum of 15 months and a maximum of 30 months on the opening day of the fair. Heifers must weigh a minimum of 900 pounds at the weigh-in during the fair and be bred to calve between September 15th thru December 15th and from January1st thru May 1st.These requirements will be verified at the scale by the certified weigh master, the attending veterinarian, and fair management. Those heifers that do not meet criteria will be disqualified from show competition. Ownership Requirements and Project Agreement The project members must have ownership of their heifer no later than 120 days before fair. Heifers must be weighed and tagged at the preweigh in to be eligible. The original Bill of Sale must be retained by the exhibitor and presented to the State Brand Inspector at the Fair. Substitutions If a breeding or health problem should occur, as evidenced by a veterinarian of the 4-H Leader/FFA Instructor in charge, a substitute heifer may be allowed if owned by the member on or before the 120 day ownership requirement and was tagged and weighed at that time. Breeding a Project Management Heifers must be bred to calve between September 15th thru December 15th and from January 1st thru May 1st. Two calving divisions will be available at the fair, (1) Fall Calving Division and (2) Spring Calving Division. Heifers will be preg-checked on weigh day at the Fair by a veterinarian specified by Fair Management. Heifers that are not bred within the specified calving times will be disqualified from show competition. Heifers may be bred naturally, or by artificial insemination. They should be bred to bulls with low birth weights in order to reduce difficulty in calving. Accurate records must be kept on the heifers. It is important that members have dates written down as to when the heifer was exposed to that bull and any data that could be beneficial to the potential buyer. Health At the start of the project, members should seek advice from a local veterinarian about preventing diseases such as Leptospirosis, Vibrosis, Anaplosmosis, and Brucellosis. State law requires that beef heifers over twelve (12) months of age show evidence of the calfhood brucelloisis vaccination if they are sold within the state of California for breeding purposes. Therefore, it is mandatory that the brucellosis ear tag number (orange metal clip number) and tattoo number be entered on the entry form. All heifers will be checked by the veterinarian upon arrival on the Fairgrounds and those heifers having no tattoo shall be disqualified from show competition. Judging The Danish System of Judging will be used at the Fair, giving an exhibitor three (3) possible group placings; Purple, Blue and Red. A Grand Champion and Reserve Grade Champion Beef Replacement Heifer will be selected by the judge(s). Heifers awarded purple and blue ribbons in show competition will qualify for the Beef Replacement Heifer sale held during the Fair. Heifers that receive a red ribbon do not qualify for the sale and will not be allowed to sell in the Replacement Heifer Sale. Heifers that qualify for the sale are not required to sell, but must inform the livestock office within one hour

following the heifer show in order to be removed from the sale order. The Grand and Reserve Champion heifers must sell in the Replacement Heifer Sale. Replacement Heifer Sale An exhibitor may enter and exhibit up to three (3) beef replacement heifers, but not sell more than one beef replacement heifer at the fair per year. Only those heifers placing in the top two groups (Purple and Blue) will be eligible to sell. A commission charge of 8% will be deducted from the exhibitor’s sale proceeds. If a heifer calves during the Fair and has qualified for the sale, she will be eligible to be sold with the calf by her side provided that the calf is healthy and the heifer is controllable. The decision will be made by fair management. Release of Replacement Heifers The fair would prefer that the replacement heifers sold in the Heifer Sale stay on the fairgrounds throughout the week of fair and released on Sunday during the scheduled release time. If a buyer requests to transport their purchase(s) immediately after the sale, permission must be obtained by fair management and load-out guidelines provided by fair management must be followed in order to ensure the safety of the public and non-interference with fair-time events. Heifers who do not qualify for the sale must remain on the fairgrounds throughout the week of fair and will be released at the normal scheduled release time. Temperament of Heifer Heifers must be gentle and trained to lead with a show halter. The Fair Management reserves the right to disqualify any animal as ineligible for show competition, and order the removal of any beef entry that is not gentle and properly halter broke to lead, and which could therefore endanger other exhibitors and Fair-going public. In the event that an animal injures a member of the Fair-going public, the exhibitor (not the TBVF) is liable. Insurance must be purchased from CFSA to cover the exhibitor should such and incident occur during Fair. Please contact the Fair office for purchasing insurance or further information.

Sunday, September 13th 2015 10:00 a.m. Beef Grass Arena FREE FUN FOR EVERYONE! If you’re looking for a thrill-a-minute, fun-filled activity for kids, with extreme spectator entertainment value, check out the Barnyard Rodeo event at this year’s fair! The Barnyard Rodeo will be premiering at this year’s Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair. This exciting, new children’s rodeo event provides the youngsters a chance to participate in numerous fun events in a rodeo like atmosphere providing friendly competition between the children! The Barnyard Rodeo provides events for children ages 3-15. It includes, Mutton Bustin’, Pig Scramble, Kid’s Dummy Steer Roping, Potato Sack Races, Egg & Spoon Races and Stick Horse Races. The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair is proud to offer this free, fun-filled family entertainment on Kid’s Day at this year’s fair! Mutton Bustin’ is one of the most popular events and offers youngsters between the ages of 4 to 8 years old, weighing less than 60 lbs. an opportunity to try to ride a sheep for a full six seconds! If they stay on for the full six second ride they will receive a score just like any rough stock rodeo rider would! The highest score of the round wins. If none of the participants ride for the full six seconds, the rider who stayed on the longest wins the round. The top three riders from each round will receive placing awards and ALL of the riders in each round will receive a participation award. This fun-filled event creates non-stop action and excitement as the children and our wooly bully sheep grab the attention of numerous fairgoers. Whether it’s a one second or six second ride, these youngsters are in for a wild, exciting and memorable time! The added production of funny commentary, in-arena/chute rider interviews and crowd interaction will make this one of the most popular spectator events at the fair! The Pig Scramble is a squealing, scrambling good time and is as much fun for the kids as it is for the spectators watching! Contestants between the ages of 4 to 12 years of age and weighing less than 75 lbs race after clever and wily young pigs turned loose in the arena. The contestant’s objective is to catch and hold on to a slippery pig in the grass arena. Be prepared: if a contestant catches a pig, the pig will come home to live with the contestant! ALL of the scramblers in each round will receive a participation award. Tell-tale squeals of delight will be heard throughout the fairgrounds! Kids Dummy Steer Roping is a good ol’ ropin’ fun time, letting the kids experience where the Old West came from. The cattle didn’t always want to “get along” on the trail so cowboys became skilled in roping the disagreeable animals. Children aged 5 to12 can participate in roping or “catching” a “dummy” steer by twirling the rope in the air, flinging it forward, and neatly bending it around the head of the dummy calf that is his/her target. It doesn’t matter if the rope misses, it’s all about having fun! The little buckaroos will have a dadgum blast with the dummy (as will the older cowboys and cowgirls at heart)!

The Potato Sack Races will provide great fun for the competitors and excitement for the spectators! Open to competitors ages 3 to 15 to hop on out into the arena and race like super spuds!! Individual Potato Sack Race: Participants will run to the sack, put both feet in and begin hopping toward the finish line. Contestants must keep both feet in sack and at least one hand on the sack at all times. The sack must remain as close to the waist as possible and should not fall below the knees. The first racer to the finish line wins. Three-legged Potato Sack Race: Two people form a team to race. One person put a left leg and the other person put a right leg in a potato sack. They stand side-by-side and race together from the beginning to the end. The teamwork is the key to finish the race successfully. Usually, walking and running are the more proper method to race rather than hopping or jumping. The first team reaches the finish line wins! Did you know that sack racing was made an official Olympic event in the 1904 Summer Olympics in St. Louis? The good old-fashioned potato sack game is a great past-time and will bring back many childhood memories. The Egg & Spoon Race will have kids and adults “cracking up” by offering a fun and exciting event for the youngsters! Open to children ages 3 to 15. All contestants will be in the arena at the start line. An egg and spoon will be given to each contestant. Contestants must race with the egg in the spoon, holding the spoon by the handle, and far enough so judges can see that no finger or thumb touches the egg. On the signal, contestants race to far end of arena, around a barrel and back to the finish line. The first contestant back with their egg wins. Which came first? The Egg or the Spoon? The Stick Horse Race provides great ol’time fun for the youngsters! We’re calling all jockeys, ages 3 to 10, to compete in the Barnyard Rodeo Stick Horse Races! We will provide the stick horses, you provide the fun!
Race 1 (10 yards): 3-4 year olds Race 2 (20 yards): 5-7 year olds Race 3 (30 yards): 8-10 year olds
