The 2020 District & Expo Show Rules can be viewed and downloaded
by going to www.kyagr.com.
8.     Youth must show their own animals in the 4-H/FFA Youth Livestock
       Show. In the event of illness or other incapacity of the exhibitor
       excluding sporting events and extracurricular activities at school,
       the youth may ask another youth to show the animal, subject to prior
       written approval of Kentucky State Fair management.

                                                                                 4-H/FFA Youth Livestock
9.     If an exhibitor has more than one animal in a class or in the
       Championship Drive, they must use a substitute showperson that
       has entries in the Kentucky State Fair 4-H/FFA Youth Livestock
       Shows of the same species. This substitute showperson must be
       from Kentucky and must be declared with the superintendent
       prior to the start of the show, Division Drive and/or Championship
       Drive.

10. Using coloring agents to alter the natural color of an animal is
    prohibited.
11. It is the intent of the Kentucky State Fair Board that the 4-H/FFA youth
    exhibitors involved in the youth livestock shows take responsibility
    for caring and grooming his/her own animals. If assistance is needed
    it should be aimed at helping the youth learn new skills and can be
    done by a family member, extension agent, agriculture teacher, 4-H
    leader, another Kentucky 4-H/FFA member or an approved assisting
    adult* that has registered with the Kentucky State Fair. Rather than
    restrict assistance to youth exhibitors, the Kentucky State Fair Board
    believes that it is in the best interest for the Fair and youth exhibitors
    to allow these adults the opportunity to assist any Kentucky 4-H/FFA
    Youth Livestock exhibitor. Youth exhibitors should be encouraged to
    receive assistance from fellow Kentucky 4-H or FFA exhibitors.
       *4-H/FFA youth exhibitors that require the assistance of another
       adult will need to request a form from the Kentucky State Fair
       Entry Department and have it returned no later than August 4th
       for approval by Fair management. This form can be found on
       our website or you may contact the Entry Department to request
       a copy. All approved adults will need to come to the West Wing
       Livestock Office during the Fair to receive their wristbands.
       (Note: Approved adults assisting youth market goat exhibitors
       will pick-up wristbands in Broadbent Arena.)

                              and be accompanied by the entry fees. Animals entered in open classes must
                              remain on the fairgrounds until released by the department superintendent.

                              the validation process, the exhibitor will forfeit premiums from all animals
