TYPES OF JUDGING
Danish Judging: This is the traditional system, in which all exhibits of the same division are presented simultaneously to the judge. The judge evaluates each exhibit, but is permitted to give a maximum of 25% ribbons within each color group in each division. This style is used primarily in the animal departments and open division entries.
Face-to-Face Judging: This form of judging allows more flexibility for judge and exhibitor. Youth
bring their projects to the judge within the allotted time, and talk to the judge about their exhibit.
Based on the variables from the “face-to-face” discussion, the judge awards the ribbon and premium which he/she believes is appropriate. This style is used in junior division departments exhibited
in the Ziegler Family Exposition Center.
Premium Listings:
1st Blue
= Excellent
2nd Red
= Very Good
3rd White = Good
4Th Pink
= Needs Improvement
JUDGING
1. Exhibits in any department must be worthy, in the estimations of the judge, to qualify for a
prize.
2. Not more than one premium will be awarded any exhibitor upon any one prize number.
3. Any person residing in Washington County is eligible to enter Open Departments. Jr. Department exhibitors must be a member of a recognized youth group.
4. Any exhibitor who shall attempt to interfere with deliberations or decisions of the judges
will be excluded from competition in that division.
5. Any person making a false entry will forfeit premium.
6. All judging will be done by qualified judges registered with the Wisconsin Department of
Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection.
7. The report of the judges must be made out and returned to the Manager’s Office at the
completion of the Department Judging
8. No person except the Manager and assistants will be allowed to examine the entry books
until after the awards have been made.
9. All premiums, both regular and special, are the absolute property of the Washington County
Ag & Industrial Society, and will be paid as such.
10. All articles competing for premiums will be under the control of the Superintendent and
must not be removed from the grounds until after the last day except by written permission of
the manager. Failure to abide by this rule, exhibitor forfeits all premium.
11. No articles shall compete for more than one premium unless as part of a collection, nor will
premiums be awarded when articles are not worthy in the estimation of the judges, even
though there will be no competition.

(2) "Department" as it relates to the organizational structure of a fair, means an animal species, production
group, or other principal classification of exhibits. As used in any other context, "department" means the State
of Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection.
(3) "Division" means one of three exhibitor group classifications for a fair and is limited to junior division, open
division and senior citizens division.
(4) "Lot" or "lot number" means the numerical designation assigned by a local fair for a specific category of exhibits within a class.
(5) "Premium" means a monetary prize that a county fair awards to an exhibitor after judging all competing
exhibits in the class to which the premium pertains.
ATCP160.02 PREMIUM REQUIREMENTS. (1) GENERAL. (a) The state aid authorized by s. 93.23(1), Stats. may be
paid only on net premiums, which consist of total premiums paid less total entry fees received. The department
may withhold state premium aid from any fair which does not enforce the animal health provisions required
under ch. ATCP 10. for all classes of livestock exhibited at the fair. State aid will be paid only on premiums actually paid by bank check or draft.
(b) No deductions may be made from premium money won by an exhibitor. Premiums may, however, be withheld where exhibition rules established by the fair association are violated. A written statement of violation shall
be submitted to the department to justify action taken by a local fair.
(c) Premiums offered shall be definite in amount. No decrease or increase in published premiums may be made
because of the financial condition of the organization or for any other reason.
(d) State aid may be paid on no more than 2 premiums awarded an exhibitor under one premium or lot number
in open division individual livestock classes, except poultry and rabbits, and no more than one premium in all
other classes, including poultry and rabbits.
(e) No county or district fair may receive state aid for a premium awarded to any exhibitor in the open division if
that exhibitor entered the same exhibit in the junior division at the same county or district fair. This paragraph
does not apply if the exhibit was entered in the junior division only as part of a herd group, carcass class or performance class.
(f) No state aid will be paid on the cost of ribbons, cups, trophy prizes or entertainment contests.
(2)PREMIUM LISTS. (a) Premiums for which state aid is requested by county and district fairs shall conform

ATCP160.03 EXHIBITION REQUIREMENTS. A county or district fair shall meet all of the exhibition requirements of
this section to be eligible for state premium aid.
(1) No fair society or other organization sponsoring a county or district fair shall require an exhibitor to become a

due to animal disease emergence in Wisconsin or other states, for example, vesicular stomatitis in the western states. It is always advisable to check with the Division of Animal Health (608-224-4874) for the most recent health requirements when planning to exhibit animals. Animals meeting exhibition requirements may
not meet all import or movement requirements for other purposes.
The fair and WDATCP have the right to make such tests and examinations as may be necessary to determine
the disease status of any animal exhibited and to exclude or remove any animal afflicted with or suspected of
being afflicted with a contagious or infectious disease. If at any time any animal shows evidence of a contagious or infectious disease, it shall be immediately removed from the exhibit and slaughtered or quarantined
as directed by the department.
CATTLE AND BISON
Cattle affected with ringworm, warts, mange, or scab may not be exhibited, unless the veterinarian in charge
determines the ringworm lesions or warts are inactive and incapable of transmitting the disease. Any cattle
found with ringworm, warts, mange or scab that are active shall be removed from the premises of the fair.
Cattle originating from within Wisconsin
There are no test or health document requirements for Wisconsin cattle. However, fair management is responsible for maintaining records of persons who have exhibited at the fair, the livestock premises code, if
any, and the identification of animals shown for 5 years. Acceptable forms of animal identification for breeding animals are (1) an official metal ear tag, (2) a breed registration number, (3) a breed registration tattoo, or
(4) other identification approved by the department. For steers, either an official identification as listed for
breeding animals or the ear tag applied at weigh-in may be used. Entry blanks submitted and signed by exhibitors, including one of the forms of identification listed above will fulfill the exhibitor requirements.
Cattle originating from Tuberculosis Accredited Free herds (except Michigan and Minnesota) may enter without a prior tuberculosis test if the accredited herd number appears on the certificate. Cattle originating from
Modified Accredited states (Michigan and Minnesota) must have a permit number, a certificate of veterinary
inspection which includes a statement that the cattle will be returning to the state of origin directly after the
show, and documentation of the special tuberculosis testing: Each animal attending a fair must have a negative individual TB test within 60 days of the date of import, and the herd the animal comes from must have a
negative whole-herd TB test (for animals one year and older) within 12 months of the date of import. Exhibitors should contact the Division of Animal Health at 608-224-4874, well in advance of the fair or exhibition, to
determine any changes in the testing requirements.

housed with domestic cattle.
2. Ratites (ostriches, emus, rheas, and cassowaries) should not be housed with domestic poultry.
3. Swine should not be housed with other mammalian species.
4. Since bovine viral diarrhea (BVD), an infectious disease of cattle, can spread rapidly under the conditions of
a livestock show, the department strongly recommends that all breeding cattle exhibited at Wisconsin fairs
be properly vaccinated against BVD at least 30 days prior to the show. Exhibitors should consult with their
veterinarians regarding the proper choice of vaccine and the correct schedule for its administration.
17
5. Cattle should test negative for BVD-PI by immunoperoxidase test and negative for Johne’s disease by the
ELISA test.
6. Common watering and feeding troughs should not be used.

FAIR VETERINARIAN RESPONSIBILITIES
The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture Trade and Consumer Protection establish rules that fairs must follow to reduce the risk of animal health concerns. One of those requirements is:
If a fair or livestock exhibition in this state lasts for more than 24 hours, the sponsors of the fair or exhibition
shall appoint a licensed veterinarian to conduct a daily inspection of all livestock at the fair or exhibition. For a
complete listing of the rule, please see the health requirements section of the fair book.
The veterinarian employed by the fair does come to the grounds each day. Their schedule depends on their
other responsibilities and is usually not at a set time each day. When the veterinarian comes to the fair, they
will check with the Livestock Office to see if there are any concerns or animals to check. They will then walk
through the livestock areas and observe animals for any concerns.
If you have an animal that you would like the veterinarian to check when they are on the grounds, please
leave the information with someone in the livestock office. It will then be provided to the veterinarian on the
next visit. The veterinarian will check your animal. However, if any treatment is administered you are responsible for the costs of the treatment.
If an animal needs immediate attention it is the responsibility of the exhibitor to contact their own veterinarian for any attention or treatment.
If you have any questions, please speak to the superintendent of your department or someone at the livestock office.
22
OVERNIGHT PASSES
Youth or adults that plan to stay on the grounds between 11:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. will need to obtain an overnight pass. All junior fair exhibitors, even if over the age of 18, are considered as youth and will need to follow
the procedures and requirements for a youth pass.
Overnight passes for youth will be issued only to people exhibiting livestock having an important and compelling need to stay at the fair. Friends or others will not be eligible for overnight passes.
Adults and/or youth wishing to obtain an overnight pass can pick up the applications at the UW-Extension
Office in West Bend. Exhibitors are encouraged to complete and turn in the application to UW-Extension
office by June 30th. However, applications will be accepted no later than July 13th. Applications will only be

Pave the Way to the Fair Park
Buy A Brick
During the planning stages of the new Washington County Fair Park many people asked that the County
provide a way for citizens, organizations, clubs and businesses to personalize their contributions and
show their support. A commemorative dedication plaza was suggested and planners went to work to
provide such an area. The Washington County 4-H Leaders Association now brings this opportunity to
you!
The Washington County Fair Park Donor Recognition Plaza is located just outside the Fair Park Pavilion
and the Main Fair Park Entrance. This attractive plaza offers donors a variety of commemorative elements that will provide space for memorials, special messages, family names, and business logos.
Donors will be able to put their family name, business name, or club name on a variety of items from a
simple brick or plaque to a tree or park bench.
The Fair Park offers year round educational, entertainment and economic benefit to Washington County
and southeastern Wisconsin. Hundred of thousands of people use the Fair Park each year.
Personalized memorial bricks make great gifts for the person who has everything, or for children and
grandchildren. An investment of as little as $25.00 for your name on a plaque or $50.00 for a 4” x 8”
personalized brick will give you, your family or club a lifetime of satisfaction knowing you helped build
the Washington County Fair Park. (Gift Certificates available at the Fair Park Office) Bricks will be installed once a year.
