Incredibly the size
of the incision for
minimally invasive
heart surgery at SOMC
is approximately
this big.
Jo, Minimally Invasive Heart Surgery Patient
At SOMC we perform over 50% of our
open-heart operations in the minimally
invasive fashion. That is much greater
than the national average of 5%. When
a patient has minimally invasive heart
surgery they will encounter less pain,
less scarring and less recovery time.
Sometimes making the smallest
impressions makes the biggest difference.

Historical
According to records the first fair in Scioto Co. was held in
1828 by the Agricultural & Horticultural Society.
There were numerous Fairs in the county through the
years. The first Scioto County Agricultural Society was
organized October 4, 1839.
The first Mt. Joy Fair was sponsored by the Farm Institute,
August 26-27, 1895.
In 1896 a Tri-County Fair, believed to include Scioto,
Adams and Pike Counties was held at Mt. Joy. Traces of the
old fairgrounds are still visible on the Mt. Joy Fair site. The
Mt. Joy Fair was reorganized in 1899 as the Scioto County
Agricultural Society.
In 1900 a fair was held at Dugan’s Grove, the site of the

Scioto County 4-H Policies
1. MEMBERSHIP - 4-H is the youth development initiative of Ohio State University Extension and is open to all boys
and girls in Ohio. Youth involved in Extension based programs are enrolled as either 4-H members or 4-H participants.
Eligibility for 4-H membership begins at age 5 and in kindergarten as of January 1 and ends December 31 of the year in
which an individual attains the age of 19. 4-H membership
starts once an eligible individual enrolls in a 4-H group providing a planned series of educational experiences, under
the direction of a trained adult, and within the scope and
supervision of Ohio State University Extension. The following is a set of definitions related to the types of groups in
which an individual can enroll.
COMMUNITY CLUB - Collection of two or more youth
who meet regularly under the direction of a club advisor to
conduct business, plan the club program, and enroll in a
variety of 4-H projects. Project learning is conducted on a self
study basis or in project groups where instruction is provided
to either direct or supplement the project experience.
PROJECT CLUB - Collection of two or more youth who
meet regularly under the direction of a club advisor to conduct club business, plan the club program, and enroll in the
same or similar 4-H projects. Project learning is conducted
on a self study basis or in project groups where instruction is
provided to either direct or supplement the project experience.
SPECIAL EMPHASIS GROUP - Series of experiential
learning activities that are delivered in a group setting, not
tied to any school curriculum, and focus on a topic of particular need, issue, or interest. This includes youth involved in
4-H camping programs, after school programs, etc., along
with programs for 5 to 8 year olds meeting as part of or separate from a 4-H club.
SCHOOL ENRICHMENT GROUP - Series of experiential learning activities that are delivered in a classroom or
other educational setting, and provided to achieve selected 4H learning outcomes as well as enrich the classroom curriculum.
Any youth enrolled in one time Extension based programs
like a workshop, clinic, or seminar, are considered “4-H participants.” This is particularly true for youth participating in
one time programs that are organized and resourced by
Extension personnel.
2. COMMUNITY CLUB ORGANIZATION - It is suggest-
9
ed that the club participants and advisors decide their own
club name, meeting times, meeting place(s), club size, projects taken within the club, meeting agendas and programs.
It is recommended that club advisors schedule meetings in
advance and give a written list of those meetings to each
member and their family. Advisors should also outline club
expectations and requirements (i.e. minimum meetings,
required participation, etc.) with the 4-H’er and their parent
or guardian early in the enrollment process. 4-H clubs can
be organized at any time throughout the year, however, a
club enrollment must be completed by April 15 of the current
year, with any changes complete by May 1, in order for a
club’s members to be eligible to compete in the Scioto County
Fair. Members or clubs organized after May 1 may participate in club and county activities, but not county judging or
fair displays.
3. NONDISCRIMINATION POLICY - 4-H is part of the
Ohio State University Extension Program and maintains a
strict nondiscrimination policy. Club advisors may limit the
number
of youth, project areas and programs offered (i.e. traditional
members and/or cloverbuds). However, they cannot pick
and choose members, based upon personal preference. If
they are limiting their club membership, they must take
members on a first come first enrolled basis. If a member
contacts a club, and their membership is full, or the advisor
does not offer the project the member is interested in , the
advisor should refer them to the Extension Office. The
Extension Office will then locate an appropriate club for the
prospective member in their area.
4. 4-H MEMBERSHIP ACROSS COUNTY LINES - Ohio
State University Extension administers the 4-H youth development education program whose mission is to develop
youth to reach their fullest potential as capable, competent,
caring, and contributing citizens. Each county in Ohio conducts the 4-H youth development program to accomplish
this goal. In order to affirm Ohio Extension’s position concerning cross county (and/or cross state line) 4-H membership and to establish guidelines in this area to fulfill the
above mission, the following philosophy and process statements are provided.
a) Youth are expected to affiliate with the program in
their county of residence.
b) 4-H membership in two counties simultaneously is
not possible.
c) Cross state line membership will be considered the
same as for cross county participation.
d) It is recognized that limited situations may occur
where membership in a county other than the
county of residence might be positive. The agents in
both counties must be in agreement that the change
should occur. This agreement should be based on
their professional judgement in accord with the
opening paragraph of this policy.

e)
Consideration for membership in a county other
than the county of residence should be given only in
situations where a positive educational experience
will result. Any change motivated by perceived
competitive or sale advantage, any change due to
controversial issues, or other similar motivations
will not be seen as justified reasons for consideration
for membership in a county other than the county
of residence, and will be automatically rejected by
the agents involved.
f) Any consideration for membership in a county other
than the county of residence, within the limits of
this policy and not addressed by the above
statements should be brought to the attention of
the county chair, district 4-H specialist and/or
district director by county 4-H agent. This support
team will then provide leadership for decisions in
these special situations.
5. ADVISORS - Individuals cannot be both a member and
an advisor or volunteer in the same year. Any one interested
in becoming a 4-H advisor, who has never been a 4-H advisor, or who was not an advisor the previous year, must complete an application, be interviewed by an Extension staff
member, and submit to fingerprinting and a criminal background check. Clubs carrying cloverbud projects and regular
members must have a separate advisor designated specifically for cloverbuds.
Subject to approval by 4-H agent, acceptable reference and
background checks, orientation and training, individuals
may be approved as a 4-H volunteer. All advisor/volunteers
must complete a Volunteer Application Information Sheet
and Code of Ethics Form to be returned with enrollment
sheets and attend mandatory training. An advisor should be
mature and responsible in order to help members learn by
doing, appreciate and respect their fellow man, and help
them mature into responsible young adults. All volunteers
should conduct themselves in an appropriate manner at all
times and exhibit behavior fitting a role model. Volunteers
should encourage learning, and lead members by example.
Sportsmanship should be cultivated, encouraged and
rewarded. Volunteers may be dismissed for inappropriate
behavior.
6. ADVISOR FAIR PASSES - 4-H clubs may have as
many 4-H advisors as necessary to successfully teach 4-H
members in their respective project areas. However, only two
advisors for the first five (5) 4-H club members and one (1)
advisor per the next five (5) members and so forth will
receive fair passes. Advisors should actively participate in all
club functions and attend all meetings. All new advisors,
including those who were not advisors in the previous 4-H
year, must attend a new advisors’ training meeting.
7. MEETINGS - 4-H clubs must have a minimum of six (6)
meetings from time of enrollment until fair, conducting
business meetings which include some type of program and
recreation. These six meetings DO NOT include weigh-in,
clinics, workshops, etc. UNLESS an advisor holds a short
business meeting and takes attendance at the event.
Members must attend a minimum of five (5) meetings.
Advisors can set their own meeting attendance requirements
provided they meet the minimum requirements. Passes may
be withheld from those individuals not meeting these
requirements. It is up to advisors if they wish to have any
“make up” dates for meetings.
8. ENROLLMENT REGISTRATION - Each 4-H member
must complete a 4-H Enrollment Form which must be signed
by the 4-H member and his/her parent or guardian.
Enrollment Forms must be turned in to the Extension Office.
By April 15 for fair participation.
9. ENROLLMENT DEADLINE - The enrollment deadline
is April 15. All completed enrollment sheets and registrations must be turned into the Extension Office by April 15.
Any changes or additions must be made by May 1. If mailed,
they must be postmarked by April 30. Clubs and members
who do not turn in enrollment forms by May 1 will not be
permitted to participate in fair judging activities for the current year. ALL PROJECTS TAKEN BY THE 4-H MEMBERS MUST BE
LISTED BY MAY 1. In regards to fair competition, no projects
can be switched or added after May 1, however they can be
dropped. Members may join 4-H or change projects after
May 1, but are ineligible for fair competition for that project
year.
10. PROJECT BOOKS - Most 4-H project books cost $5.00
each and can be ordered from the Extension Office using the
4-H publication order form. Please fax, mail or call in your
order so it may be processed prior to your pick-up. Due to
time and staff constraints, books cannot always be pulled
immediately or while you wait. Although an inventory of
books are kept at the Scioto County Extension Office, some
items in demand, or needed in large quantities, may need to
be ordered. Scioto County’s order day is Wednesday of each
week, therefore orders placed by Tuesday at 4:30 p.m., will
be ordered on Wednesday. Most orders are processed within
a week, and you will be notified when your order is available. The Extension Office strongly encourages 4-H members
and volunteers to utilize project books. Members taking market livestock must complete their appropriate record books.
Project records and books should be reviewed periodically by
the club advisors. Clubs may require their members to have
their own project books. Some project books will be required
to be completed and brought to judging or count for points
at the skillathon. In this case, the members must have their
own books. Project requirements for each specific project will
be attached to that project book so members will be aware of
the requirements for the project they are taking. It is left up
to the individual club advisor how to handle the purchase
and usage of project books. Please note any changes or revisions of project books and use the most recent edition.
11. CLUB FINANCES - Clubs may collect dues or fund their
club through county and club fundraisers. It is recommended that very little money be carried by a club from one year
to the next. The club treasury is intended for use by the entire
club, not certain individuals, and should be spent according
to the majority’s wishes. Excess club monies, or funds
remaining after a club has dissolved, may be donated to the
Scioto County 4-H Committee, Scioto County 4-H
Endowment, Canter’s Cave 4-H Camp Endowment, or a
selected charity. Each club is required to review their treasury
records annually and complete a treasury report (found in
your project requirements) to be returned to the Extension
Office by January of each year.
12. FUND RAISING - (1) Clubs are expected to participate
in the county wide fund raising project or contribute toward
the activities of the 4-H Committee in a meaningful way,
such as a monetary donation or trophy sponsorship. (2) All
individual club’s fundraising projects MUST be approved by
the Extension Office. If any project is controversial, the advisors will be asked to present their project ideas to the 4-H
Advisory Committee for approval. (3) Ten percent (10%) of
the profits from all individual club fundraisers must be
turned into the Scioto County 4-H Advisory Committee. (4)
Individual club raffles and lotteries are discouraged. Clubs
are expected to take part in the county wide fundraising project to earn money for their treasury and to help fund county
programs and activities. The 4-H Committee utilizes monies
collected through fund raising activities to fund county programs, activities, judging, awards, and camp scholarships.
13. TEEN LEADERS - Older 4-H members in clubs are
encouraged to assist the advisor in working with younger
club members. Advisors are encouraged to give these Teen
Leaders specific responsibilities. Advisors should check the
T.L. column of the enrollment sheet after any member’s
name who is a Teen Leader in their club. All Teen Leaders,
who are 14 years old as of January 1of current year, or freshmen in high school and older, are invited to join the Scioto
County Teen Leadership Club by contacting the Extension
Office.

14. PROJECT EVALUATION/JUDGING - Members are
encouraged, but not required, to go through project judging
and evaluation. Still, Clothing, Nutrition, Dog, Gilt, Carcass
Contests, Creative Writing and Reporting, Demonstrations,
Small Animals and Safety Speaking projects and activities
are evaluated prior to the Scioto County Fair. Judging is not
done at the Scioto County Fair for these projects and activities due to limited space at the fair and, in some cases, so
selected members can compete at the Ohio State Fair. It is
especially important for those individuals with projects evaluated prior to the fair to exhibit an appropriate display in
the 4-H Building at the Scioto County Fair. Otherwise, they
will not be eligible to receive any premiums or a fair pass. All
other projects (unless otherwise stated) will be evaluated and
displayed at the Scioto County Fair. Members can complete
projects without being judged.
15. EXHIBITING AT THE FAIR - Member Passes &
Premiums - All 4-H members are encouraged to exhibit at
the fair. They do not have to exhibit to complete their project, however, they must exhibit their project(s) at the fair to
receive any premiums and/or a fair pass. Passes and premiums are paid by the Scioto County Agriculture Society for the
display and maintenance of an exhibit at the fair. 4-H’ers
must have at least one completed project on display at the
fair, and meet the minimum number of meetings required
(5), in order to receive a fair pass. If a member’s only project
animal dies, their only project is unable to be exhibited, or it
is judged prior to the fair (i.e. gilt, carcass, dog projects, etc.)
the 4-H’er may display an educational poster or exhibit (featuring a topic related to their project i.e., parts of the animal,
learned techniques, etc.) in their club’s booth or in a designated area in the 4-H Building. If these individuals complete
an approved display or exhibit at the fair, they will then be
eligible to receive their fair pass and a premium ($2.00) for
their exhibit. See the 4-H Secretary for specific instructions
regarding premium cards and appropriate displays. Exhibits
must be displayed according to project guidelines and for the
duration of the fair in order to receive premiums. Individuals
not meeting these requirements, or removing their project display
early, will forfeit their premiums.
16. BOOTH/PROJECT DISPLAYS - All 4-H clubs, (only
exception: those clubs having 100% livestock projects) must
display their club projects appropriately in a booth exhibit in
an assigned space at the fair in the 4-H Building. All clubs
and/or members who do not exhibit appropriate project displays in their booths, or whose livestock is not on display at
the fair, will not receive any project premiums or fair passes
because they do not have an exhibit at the fair. 4-H booths
will be assigned on a first come basis, and at the discretion of
the staff member in charge. Booth reservation forms are
located at the Extension office and online at
http://scioto.osu.edu and are due in the Extension Office no
later than July 1 of each year. Booths and exhibits must
remain on display until Sunday following the fair. Any early
dismissals (i.e.: for state fair competition) must be approved
prior to removal, if not clubs and/or members could face
additional repercussions.
4-H Project and Award Premiums
1. Four-H members will receive premiums for not more
than four (4) projects regardless of the number taken. A project is defined by a project number, ie. Basic Horsemanship
171. A 4-H’er may take more than one animal within that
project but will be paid only for one project, not the number
of animals taken within that project.
2. If a 4-H member belongs to more than one club, he/she

4-H Club Work
Four-H is the youth education program of Ohio State
University Extension - a program that offers skills and training to tomorrow’s leaders. This informal educational program is conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture,
The Ohio State University and county governments, and
combines the work of federal, state, and local Extension personnel and volunteer leaders.
Traditionally, Four-H is open to any boy or girl in Scioto
County who is at least 8 years old and in the third grade and
not have passed their 19th birthday, as of January 1, of the
current year. The Cloverbud 4-H program is open to boys &
girls kindergarten and 5 years of age through 2nd Grade.
Four-H members reside in every demographic area - farm,
city and in between. The success of the 4-H program is attributed to volunteer leaders who are backed by the strong educational base of the land grant university staff in every county of the state.
The mission of 4-H is to assist youth in acquiring knowledge, developing life skills and forming attitudes that will
enable them to become self-directing, productive and contributing members of society. This mission is carried out
through the involvement of parents, volunteer leaders and
other adults who organize and conduct educational subject/project experiences in community and family settings.
These youth contribute to energy conservation, environmental improvement, community service and food production. They participate in programs that aid youth employment, career decisions, health, nutrition, home improvement
and family relationships. As a result of international cooperation with many countries, 4-H is also contributing to world
understanding. Moreover, 4-H youth apply leadership skills,
acquire a positive self-concept and learn to respect and get
along with people.
Enrollment in Scioto County is through community clubs,
special emphasis programs and the school enrichment programs.
Opportunities for membership are available to all youth
ages kindergarten through age 18 as of Jan. 1st throughout
the county regardless of race, color, creed, gender, disability,
sexual orientation, religion or national origin. They meet in
4-H clubs with volunteer advisors and participate in a
planned series of educational experiences under the direction and within the scope of the Ohio State University
Extension. Youth ages kindergarten through 2nd grade are
eligible for 4-H membership in the Cloverbud program.
outgoing. She should be a leader who shows initiative and a
sense of pride and commitment. The young lady we are in
search of should be a well-rounded individual with her own
voice and thoughts, who participates in activities not just for
recreation, but to make a difference. She should participate
in both her school and community beyond that which is
expected of her. Overall, she should stand out from her peers
and be a role model for those of all ages.
The Panel of Judges
1. Judges, when possible, will be out-of-county individuals
who are either involved in pageants, youth organizations, or
both. When at all possible, the judges will be selected for
their involvement in both, but they are not required to have

absolute right to interpret these rules and regulations and to
arbitrarily settle and determine all matters, questions, or differences in regard thereto, or otherwise arising out of, connected with, or incident to the Scioto County Fair. It further
reserves the right to determine unforeseen matters not covered by these rules, to amend or add to these rules as in its
judgment it may determine, and to withdraw all premium
offerings in all departments should any emergency exist and
circumstances demand it.
Tampering and/or misrepresentation as to breeding, age,
ownership and any other irregularity in showing will be considered fraud and deception. Any premiums, trophies,
awards or sale money won by such exhibitor will be withheld.
To maintain a high degree of confidence in the livestock
shows, the aforementioned committees reserve the right to
disqualify any animals that have been fitted in an unethical
manner. Unethical fitting shall include any injection of gas,
solid or liquid under the skin to alter the normal conformation. It shall include also any cutting or tearing of the hide
or underneath the hide or removal of tissue in an attempt to
alter the shape of the animal. It shall also include attempts
to disrupt or change normal dental development as well as
the dyeing or coloring of the individuals which alters their
natural coloration, (neutral coloring only may be used); also
artificial tail heads, switches, polls, body hair and heels shall
be considered as unethical fitting. Only horses may use artificial hair.
The use of any electrical device to produce shock to any
animal is prohibited. Severe slapping or striking of any animal shall be prohibited. The use of inhumane bits, and other
means of restraint, is prohibited. The use of ice or any other
15

The slick clipping or body shaving of hair on market hogs
(except ears and tails) is highly discouraged and if not
policed by advisors and parents, will be prohibited.
The use of unapproved drugs, additives, grooming aids
and/or shaving techniques may lead to the condemnation of
a carcass or legal action against the exhibitor and/or their
family. If animals are refused or a carcass condemned, the
exhibitor will bear any financial and/or legal burden associated with the animal. All animals, and the exhibitors
involved, giving evidence of unlawful and/or unethical treatment and/or behavior will be barred from competition at the
Scioto County Fair and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the
law. Please refer to ODA guidelines for a complete listing of
exhibition rules.

not be permitted to sell. If applicable, the animals placing
next in line at the show shall move up.
Should violation be discovered after the sale, all sale
money shall be returned to the buyer and the animal or carcass shall be returned to the exhibitor. All places in show will
stand. No animals will move up. Any carcass suspected of
being tampered with or suspected of containing drugs will be
detained until the investigation is complete.
If the carcass is condemned at the packing plant for any
reason, it shall be grounds for disqualification in the on-foot
and carcass division of the show. Additionally, all premiums
and sale money shall be forfeited and the loss of the animal
be incurred by the exhibitor.
All exhibitors, their immediate family and any other parties involved in the unethical fitting and showing of an animal will be barred from exhibiting or showing at this fair

5.
4-H members can exhibit, show and sell only one market livestock project at the Scioto County Fair.
6.
4-H members must show and/or sell their own projects.
If a 4-H'er has other commitments/interests and feels that
they cannot be present to show, exhibit and/or sell their own
project according to Junior and Senior Fair exhibition guidelines, then the 4-H'er and their parents must decide what is
most important for them. If their project animal dies after
the project enrollment or identification deadline, they may
not substitute another animal for any reason but are encouraged to create a poster or similar educational exhibit about
their project to be exhibited at the fair. This includes showmanship classes and Showman of Showmen competition.
Only Exceptions: 1) An medical emergency excused by an
Extension professional and superintendent-in-charge prior to
the event. Proposed situation must be received in writing

on a 4-H'ers enrollment form by the Fair enrollment deadline
in order for them to be eligible to compete or exhibit any

their advisor’s Enrollment Report. They must also have their
animal identified according to county guidelines and submit
the appropriate forms in order to be eligible for this activity.
2.

awards.
5.
All final calculations and results will be announced at
the carcass contest. Participants and their families will be
able to ask questions of the judge during the contest. Every
effort will be made to ensure a learning environment
throughout the event. However, since all judges decisions are
final and will not be adjusted after the close of the contest,
participants and their families should be sure to ask questions while the judge is available for comment. Final Placing
will also be posted at the fair. Awards will be announced during the appropriate specie market show. Please keep in mind
that final results can be influenced by a variety of factors
including: carcass size, muscle size, carcass length, fat thickness, degree of marbling, yield grade, quality grade and the
color, condition, texture and quality of the meat.
6.
Those species eligible to participate in the carcass project include market steer, sheep, swine & goat. All carcass
animals must meet these established requirements to be eligible for awards.
7.
Additional Information will be available at the contest.
8.
All carcasses must meet minimum quality assurance
standards. They must also exhibit the proper meat quality,
texture and color standards for that specie. Carcasses must
be free of drug residues. Tissue and muscle damage (bruising, injection site damage, etc.) should be avoided and may
be taken into account during the judging process. Carcasses

Hogs, Lambs & Goats: ......................100 % Carcass Merit*
Steers: ................................................100% Carcass Merit*
* Meat quality ( i.e. condition, texture/firmness, wetness
and color) are major factors in the carcass evaluation
process. Meat quality, yield grades, quality grades, carcass
standards and calculations will be evaluated by the rail

making the Placing for the carcass contest. Meat quality
can influence the overall placing of an animal and is of
major importance to the livestock industry. All judge’s decisions are final.
10. The carcass with the greatest number of points (after
these calculations) and highest meat quality evaluations will
be placed accordingly. Rosettes will be given to the top five
participants in each specie. Other prizes and cash awards
will be determined by the Scioto County Market and
Breeding Animal Committee. All judge’s decisions are final.
11. Exhibitors are permitted to enter one carcass per specie
in the carcass contest. Carcasses can be sold as freezer meat
by the 4-H’er or taken home. It will be the responsibility of
each participating 4-H’er to secure a buyer for their animal
if they do not wish to take the meat home for their own personal use.

current market packing prices. Prices may be negotiated by
the 4-H’er and buyer. You may also have the meat processed
for your own use.

Agreement to help facilitate the identification, processing
and destination of the animal carcasses. Agreements must

SAFETY:
1. All 4-H horse project members must enroll in activity
#191R (Horse Safety Book) their first year. It must be completed at least one year; however, advisors may require refresher
courses or re-enrollment at their discretion. Advisors must
keep records of who has enrolled in this activity each year
and submit a copy of this record when premium forms are
due. This activity is not to be considered as a project. Records
should be maintained for reference as long as the member is
eligible to enroll in a 4-H horse project. Records or a copy of
the signature sheet on the back page of the safety book will
be used to verify the member’s enrollment and education on
proper safety procedures.
2. It is mandated by the Ohio 4-H Program that all youth
wear protective head gear at all times while riding any horse.
Protective head gear is acceptable in any 4-H class even if it
is not the style that goes with that specific class. When buying protective head gear, the buyer should look for the letters
ASTM and SEI which indicates that the head gear has met
safety standards.
3. Appropriate riding footwear must be worn while riding
and handling horses.
4. Any advisor has the right to halt a rider who is riding in an
unsafe manner. Examples of this include, but are not limited
to cowboying or doubling. The rider will get down from the
horse, walk the horse back to the barn, and place the horse
in its stall. The advisor will then notify the member’s club
advisor and the 4-H agent. Continual disregard for this rule
can result in loss of riding privileges for the duration of the
fair.
4-H Equine Mandatory Helmet Use Policy
All youth 19 years of age and under, participating in any 4H equestrian activity, are required to wear properly fitted protective headgear which meets or exceeds current ASTM
(American Society for Testing and Materials)/SEI (Safety
Equipment Institute) standards with the chin harness securely fastened at all times while riding or driving an equine. It
is the responsibility of the rider, or the parent or guardian of
the youth participant to make sure that the headgear worn
complies with appropriate safety standards for protective
headgear intended for equestrian use, is properly fitted and
is in good condition. The Ohio 4-H Horse Program, Show
Committees, Officials, Extension Personnel and Volunteer
Leaders are not responsible for checking headgear worn for
such compliance. The Ohio 4-H Horse Program, Show
Committees, Officials, Extension Personnel and Volunteer
Leaders make no representation of warranty, expressed or
implied, about any protective headgear and cautions riders
that death or serious injury may result despite wearing such
headgear since no helmet can protect against all foreseeable
injuries in equestrian activities. The Ohio 4-H Horse
Program, Show Committees, Officials, Judges, Extension
Personnel and Volunteer Leaders may, at his/her discretion,
check a participant’s protective headgear for proper standards. If the youth is found to be wearing unapproved, defective, or improperly fitted headgear, he/she will not be permitted to participate in riding or driving activities until proper
headgear is acquired and worn appropriately.

accuracy.
7. All 4-H members must clean their livestock pens daily.
PREMIUMS WILL BE WITHHELD AND ANIMALS WILL BC REMOVED
FROM FAIRGROUNDS IF PENS AND ANIMALS ARE NOT PROPERLY
CARED FOR. (See General Breeding & Market Animal Rules)
8. The slick clipping, body clipping, shaving
and/or removal of hair on market and breeding
swine projects (except ears and tails) is highly discouraged. Club advisors should discuss this rule with
their members and be a role model of its intent.
Officials may elect to measure hair length. Hogs that
have been clipped (or their hair shortened in some way) and
whose hair cannot be removed at the slaughter house (less
than 2 inch) may be discounted by the processor, therefore
negatively affecting the market price of that member's hog
and even other members within that project area. Additional
penalties and/or sanctions may be imposed by Junior and
Senior Fair officials if deemed appropriate Clipped swine
projects may be disqualified at the fair (or gilt show) and be
ineligible for exhibition, show, awards and/or sale.
9. If an animal is disqualified, refused or condemned at exhibition for any reason, it is grounds for the forfeiture of any awards,
titles, premiums, and sale proceeds. The exhibitor will bear any
and all financial or other burdens associated with such disqualification, refusal and/or condemnation. Refer to the Junior Fair
Special Rules and Regulations for more information.
10. Exhibitors shall use only water on swine projects
when grooming for show: no oil, oil containing mixtures, or what appears to be oil, powder, or other
such residues are allowed. Be noted that many
grooming products may contain such items and are
thus not allowed according to county and PDA
grooming guidelines. Please be advised that just because
a product is sold or commonly used as a grooming aid that
does not mean that it is approved for livestock use by the
USDA or the ODA. Please refer to the Jr. Fair Livestock Special
Rules & Regulations for more information. Unethical treatment of animals is strictly prohibited by ODA guidelines
and is a crime punishable by law.
11. Grooming of project livestock will be limited to
4-H members, immediate family members and
approved Scioto County 4-H Volunteers. Immediate
family is defined as grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, brother, sister (this includes step parents/grandparents
and siblings).
Breeding Gilt Rules:
1. 4-H members can identify and tag two gilts per class.
However, only one gilt per class may be exhibited and shown
per class. Class selections must be made at home. 4-H'ers

they attend a session. No make-up sessions will be offered in
Scioto County.
3. Members will be able to identify two market pigs. The
other animal may be used for carcass competition as long as
the member is registered in the carcass class before the
enrollment deadline and the carcass hog does not weigh
more than 75 pounds at the county tagging.
4. Barrows must weigh between 225 and 285 pounds at the
fair in order to sell. Barrows weighing less than 225 pounds
or over 285 pounds will be shown but will not sell through

may be taken home for slaughter. They will show last and
receive participation ribbons only. Refer to Section L # 13 of

weight market animals may be re-weighed.
6. Advertisement and private treaty sales of animals on the
fairgrounds are strictly prohibited. The Market & Breeding

or Board is not responsible for any other arrangements made
for these hogs.
7. If an animal is disqualified, refused or condemned at the
fair or slaughter house for any reason, it is grounds for the
forfeiture of any awards titles, premiums, and sale proceeds.

condemnation. Refer to the Junior Fair Special Rules and
Regulations for more information.

weight and heavy weight hogs will be classed accordingly.
Members with light weight and heavy weight hogs will
receive participation ribbons in their class and will not be
placed but can compete in showmanship.
9. Only first place animals will be allowed to compete for
Grand Champion Market Hog. After the selection of Grand

Outstanding Exhibitor Award
In order to compete in the Scioto County Outstanding
Exhibitor Award, 4-H members must compete in the
Skillathon, a designated showmanship class and a project
class, as outlined for their specie. Members enrolled in beef,
sheep, swine, poultry, rabbit, goat, dairy cattle, and horse
projects will be automatically entered in this contest if they
meet the activity guidelines.
Points will be given to individuals placing first through
fifth in each event or class. Participation points will be given
to those individuals who participate, but do not place in an
event or class. Please note that in order for an individual to
receive points in any given class, there must be competition
(or at least three) in the event. This includes division and
champion classes.
Members taking market, breeding and project animals are
eligible to compete in this event. If an member shows more
than one project within a specie (i.e. both a breeding and
market project or two horse projects) the best score will be
awarded. However, if a 4-H'er has a market hog and a breeding gilt project, only the market hog showmanship score will
be awarded. If a 4-H'er only has a guilt project, then the guilt
showmanship score will apply.
Due to the nature of the market hog showmanship selection, all members showing in their initial market class will
receive participation points, unless they warrant higher placing points.
Outstanding Exhibitors will be selected by identifying the
top scoring individuals in beef, sheep, swine, poultry, rabbit,
goat, dairy cattle and horse projects areas. Scores will be calculated utilized the following tables.
