HOME ARTS RULE BOOK- MADISON COUNTY FAIR 2021

                              RULES AND REGULATIONS
These rules are published as a public service by the Madison County Fair Board. All participants
 are responsible to obtain and become familiar with these rules. An entry implies that entrant
                          read, knows, and understands these rules.

   1. Entries in all departments, unless otherwise specified, are open to everyone. ENTRANTS
       DO NOT NEED TO BE RESIDENTS OF MADISON COUNTY.
   2. The word “exhibit” refers to the animal or article. The word “exhibitor” refers to the
       entrant.
   3. The Board of Directors and management reserve the right to accept entries after closing
       dates if sufficient reasons for the delay are given. They also reserve the right to alter
       classifications and premiums for any recognized breeds of livestock or other exhibits at
       their discretion.
   4. The management reserves the right to reject any exhibit offered if it is objectionable,
       requires an excessive amount of space, or if the capacity of the department has been
       reached.
   5. All exhibits must be in place as specified in the general rules of each department. No
       exhibits will be released before Monday, August 23, 2021 at 9 AM (See division rules.)
   6. Articles sent by mail, freight, or express must be prepared. No exhibit will be accepted if
       carrier charges have not been paid.
   7. Exhibitors having space assigned to them will not be permitted to change to another
       location without having obtained permission from the superintendent of the department
       under penalty of the forfeiture of premiums.
   8. The Madison County Fair will not award a premium on any articles not specifically
       mentioned in the Premium List. Such articles may be accepted by the superintendent of
       the department of the exhibition. The Judges’ books shall be evidence of payment of
       premiums- ribbons and cards are not accepted.
   9. No diseased/inferior stock or articles will be assigned space on the fairgrounds for
       exhibition purposes.
   10. Exhibitors must in all cases be the bona fide owners of the articles or animals exhibited by
       them, except where otherwise specified. A transfer of ownership for the purposes of
       exhibiting will debar any animal or article and operate against the awarding of premiums
       offered by the Madison County Fair.
   11. If found that a premium has been obtained by false evidence, misrepresentation, or a
       violation of the general rules or special rules governing the department, all premiums will
       be withheld.

                                                                                              5

HOME ARTS RULE BOOK- MADISON COUNTY FAIR 2021

12. COMPETITION- is defined as a contest of supremacy between two or more animals,
    projects, or articles owned by separate exhibitors. Two exhibits entered by the same
    person or household does not constitute a competition. No premium will be paid if
    competition does not exist. When a community interest in the ownership of animals or
    article is apparent in the judgement of the board, competition will be considered to not
    exist although the actual ownership might be separate.
13. CONDITIONS OF COMPETITION. If two or more exhibitors are not competing in any breed,
    exhibits must be of the quality to merit the awards given. Judges will give a lesser award if
    the exhibit is not of a high enough quality to merit the first award.
14. Exhibitors may make as many entries in each class as desired, except as specified in the
    special rules of each department. However, no exhibitor will be allowed more than two
    premiums in any one class.
15. No animal or article may compete in more than one class or more than one trophy, except
    as one pair, group, or championship or except as otherwise specified in the special rules of
    each department.
16. Exhibitors making entries and not exhibiting shall forfeit all entry fees and exhibitor’s
    tickets.
17. No director of this fair shall act as judge in any class, nor shall any exhibitor act as a judge in
    any given class.
18. The judges will be expected, if called upon, to give reasons for the decision, embracing the
    value and desirable qualities of the animals or articles to which the awards were made.
19. Prior to the judging, each superintendent will inspect all exhibits in his department to
    determine if they are entered in the class they should compete in. If the superintendent
    and exhibitor cannot reach an agreement as to the classification, it should be reported to
    the management. Classification will then be made by a committee appointed by the
    manager, whose decision shall be final. In cases where it is obvious entries are not correctly
    entered, the change may be made by the superintendent without reference to the
    exhibitor.
20. If there is any question during the judging as to the regularity of any entry or the right of an
    exhibitor to compete in any class, the judge shall report to the same immediately to the
    superintendent of the department for adjustment.
21. Awards will be made according to the merits of the exhibit. The judge may disqualify or
    award second or third premiums at his discretion.
22. Anyone attempting to influence the judges in their decision, in any manner, will forfeit all
    awards and will be excluded from all competition and exhibition. No one will be permitted
    in the Home Arts Building during the judging except the Awards Committee, the Officers of
    the Fair, and the necessary attendants.
23. All protests must be made in writing, setting forth grounds for protests.

                                                                                                6

    done to, occasioned by, or arising from any animal or articles exhibited by him. Those shall

    Madison County Fair will take reasonable precautions to insure the safety of exhibits and

    arising out of strikes, riots, lockouts, or acts of God.
26. Exhibitors of animals, machinery in motion, and other exhibits are liable to occasional
