2023 YOUTH FAIR POSTER
Theme: Rooted in Progress
The Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture will once again conduct a statewide poster contest at the agricultural fairs. Participating fairs will hold their own contest and submit one poster from each age group to the state level for additional judging and cash prizes. Entries must be received by or postmarked on November 1, 2023.
1. Only one poster may be submitted per exhibitor, per age group. There will be three state competitions: ages 8-11, 12-14, and 15-18. Exhibitors must be in one of these age groups as of June 1 of the current fair season to qualify.
2. The poster size must be either 14 x 22 inches or 14 1/2 x 22 inches. Other sizes will not be accepted for judging at the state level. This year's theme is "Rooted in Progress." Contestants are asked to submit their artwork that reflects the deep roots of agriculture in Pennsylvania's history and the significant innovations farmers and their families have made and continue to make, to grow and adapt as markets, consumers, and resources change.
3. Exhibitors using other themes will be disqualified at the state level.
4. The fair secretary or contest coordinator is responsible for submitting the poster and completing the entry form for each poster with each age group to the Fair Office. Please be sure to provide all the information requested on the entry form; incomplete forms will be returned. The poster and entry form can be given to the Fair Administrator at the PSACF fall zone meetings or mailed to the Fair Fun Office: Tracy Barone, Fair Fund Administrator PA Department of Agriculture 2301 North Cameron Street, Room 310 Harrisburg, PA 17110
The poster contest entry form can be obtained online on Department's website.
5. Posters must be packaged flat. Posters rolled or folded will be ineligible for judging. Please, do not mail the posters to the PA Farm Show Complex.
6. Posters must be received by, or post marked on November 1, 2023.
Posters will be evaluated on use of the theme, visual appearance and creativity in relation to the exhibitor's age.
7. Premium checks for:
1st Place $100 2nd Place $75 3rd Place $50
These checks will be presented by the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture to the top three individuals. Winners will be notified in advance and invited to attend an awards presentation. Participants are required to provide their social security numbers for award disbursements from the PA Department of Agriculture.
All posters will become the property of the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture for possible future promotional activities for the Pennsylvania Farm Show and Pennsylvania State Association of County Fairs. Any duplication of posters from previous years will be disqualified. Posters will not be returned via mail. Contestants may arrange to have their entries returned following the PA Farm Show through their individual fairs; however, the posters must be picked up in person at the PSACF Convention or Spring Zone Meetings.

5. It shall be the responsibility of the exhibitor to make known the proper name of the article or breed of livestock being entered. Any item entered improperly will be disqualified to receive a prize; the judges will mark the correct name on the entry tag for the benefit of the owner so that the same mistake in entering will not be made the second time.
6. Chairpersons of the department reserve the right of refusing to accept any entry. Furthermore, the chairpersons reserve the right to bar from competition animals and products of decidedly inferior quality and those not possessing sufficient merit to warrant recognition. Chairpersons may also limit the number of entries per exhibitor.
7. No discriminating marking shall be placed on any article to be exhibited.
8. Reasonable care will be taken to protect all exhibits on display from injury and damage, but the Fair is not in any way to be held responsible for accidents, loss or damage by water, fire, theft or otherwise, whatever may be the cause or extent of the damage or loss.
9. All entries must be grown, produced or made since the last fair by the exhibitor, with the exception of wine categories, please refer to the wine rules. Articles that have been previously judged are not eligible to compete.
10. Premiums, as listed, will be given for meritorious exhibits. In cases where there is no competition, judges may give an award as they deem the exhibit is worthy to receive. This same rule applies where there are less entries in the class than the number of premiums offered.
11. An exhibitor shall not receive more than one premium on any particular class except in some livestock classes.
12. The Fair management may, at any time, order the removal of any exhibit or part of an exhibit in bad condition or sick. Likewise, any article deemed unfit to show may be excluded.
13. During the judging, buildings, except livestock arenas, are to be closed to everyone except Fair officials, judges, Pennsylvania Fair Fund officials and necessary attendants. No exhibitor or his agent shall communicate with the judge during the determining of awards except to answer questions proposed by the judge. Any exhibitor interfering with the judge while making awards shall forfeit any premium to which he would otherwise be entitled.

The Fair Association will positively not be responsible for the return of items displayed.
16. All Livestock entered for premiums must have been the property of the exhibitor for sixty (60) days or longer. (Livestock entered under a name other than the owner’s shall be disqualified for premiums).
17. Market animals must be weighed on the same set of scales under a qualified weighmaster at the discretion of the Fair.
18. Should any animal awarded a prize be disqualified, the animal gaining the lower prizes shall move into the next higher position, if in the opinion of the judges, the animals are worthy of such prizes.
19. Each exhibitor must furnish their own straw, feed and trough and also must see that the animals are properly cared for.
20. If, in the opinion of the Director, an exhibitor conducts him/herself in a manner unbecoming a 4-H or FFA member, or violates any of the rules governing the show, all premiums won will be forfeited and other penalties imposed as they deem appropriate.
21. When on exhibition in the ring, each animal must be under halter and each exhibitor must be present and have charge of his/her animal.
22. The Fair will have stand-by attendants available during the youth judging or showing to help if there is trouble with the animals.

CONTEST COOKIES, BROWNIES AND BARS
The goal of the PA Preferred® Baking Contest is to encourage young people across the Commonwealth to participate in Pennsylvania's agricultural fairs by showcasing Pennsylvania grown and produced products in their contest entries.
1. Open to any individual amateur baker (age 8 through 18 at the time of the fair's contest) who is a Pennsylvania resident. One entry per person.

5. At least two (2) PA Preferred® or locally purchased ingredients must be used in the recipe. Some examples of qualifying ingredients include grains (such as oats or flour), butter, milk, eggs, fruit and/or vegetables.

6. Entry must be submitted for judging on a food safe disposable setting. (All pans, plates and dishes are considered to be disposable and will not be returned.)

Different Types Of Cookies
Bar Cookies - A batter or other ingredients are poured or pressed into a rectangular pan (sometimes in multiple layers), then baked and cut into individual-sized squares. Brownies and lemon bars are examples of bar cookies. Tip: Cut when completely cool and use a plastic knife.
Iced Cookies - A drop or rolled cookie iced for decoration or to add flavor. Sugar cookies or fancy Christmas cookies are examples of this type of cookie.
Drop Cookies - A relatively soft dough is dropped by the spoonful onto the baking sheet. During baking, the mounds of dough spread and flatten. Chocolate chip cookies, oatmeal cookies and macaroons are examples of drop cookies. Tip: Chill soft doughs before dropping onto a cool cookie sheet.
Pressed Cookies - Made from a soft dough that is extruded from a cookie press (cookie gun) or pastry tube into various decorative shapes. Spritz cookies are an example. Tip: Hold cookie press so that it rests on the cookie sheet. Raise press straight up from the cookie sheet after enough dough has been released to form a cookie.
Sliced or Ice Box Cookies - Made from a stiff dough that is refrigerated in logs until it becomes hard. It is then sliced into rounds and baked. Examples include pinwheels and shortbread. Tip: Use a thin, sharp knife to slice dough.
Rolled cookies - Made from a stiffer dough that is chilled and then rolled out and cut into shapes with a cookie cutter, knife or pastry wheel. Gingerbread men are an example, or any other cookie made with a cookie cutter. Tip: Take your time so that cookies are uniform in shape and size, this helps them bake evenly.
Filled Cookies - Rolled, dropped or pressed cookies that are assembled with a sweet filling: frosting, jam, marshmallow crème and peanut butter crème.

Descriptions Of Different Fruit Spreads
All: Must be processed in water bath canner for 10 minutes. Color is characteristic of the fruit. Clear not discolored from over cooking. Aroma and flavor are characteristic of the fruit without excessive sweetness or over cooked flavor.
Special Information: The condition of the container is of special importance. It must be a standard canning (mason) jar made for canning. Packers such as mayonnaise, peanut butter or other products intended for one way service are not acceptable for fair entry competition. Ring Bands must be clean, free from rust and loose on the jar. Lids must be sealed and the use of paraffin is not acceptable. Most of all, if you are not willing to read the rules in your premium book and follow these simple suggestions, please don’t blame the judge for your poor placement.
Fruit Butter - A smooth creamy spread that is created by slow cooking fruit and sugar until it reaches the right consistency. The pulp is then run through a sieve, making it quite smooth; these types of spreads are not always translucent and often opaque. Best used as a spread of a filling.
Honey Spreads - Fruit products which use honey in the preparation as a substitution for par of the sugar.
Jam - A thick sweet mixture of fruit, pectin and sugar that is boiled gently but quickly until fruit is soft yet thick enough to spread easily and can form a blob. Jams have pieces of crushed or chopped fruit. Jams also are good for fillings.
Preser ves - Like jams except they have chunks of fruit surrounded by jelly.
Jelly - Clear, sweet spread made from fruit juice, pectin and sugar, which holds its shape when unmolded.
Marmalades - A citrus spread made from the peel and pulp of the fruit. Marmalades are cooked for a long time and have no pectin are used for spreads and glazed.
Conserves - A very thick and chunky textured spread made with cooked dried fruits and nuts. Works well as a spread and as a condiment for meats and cheeses.
