and Consumer Services
Dear Fair Friends,
The N.C. State Fair is just around the corner, and I am sure many of you are already busy working on your entries for this year’s
competitions. It’s a great time to get ready, and you will find everything you need to know about these competitions in the links on this
page.
Annually, the N.C. State Fair features thousands of competitions, that allow us to showcase the talents and skills of residents across
the state in home canning and food preservation, art, needlecraft and sewing, woodworking, gardening, music and dance, showing
livestock, cooking and many more categories. Some competitions are designed for young people, while others are open to everyone.
During the fair, I enjoy going through the buildings and looking at the entries. We have some very talented people in the state, and
that certainly shows in the quality of items submitted.
This year, we have added some new competitions that you may want to consider entering, including two on-the-spot competitions, a
Kids Sugar Cube Building Contest for ages 4 through 12, and a Team Cake Decorating Contest, where a team of two will compete
in a timed decorating contest. Other new contests include a Pre-Apprentice Pre-Engineering Mobile Robotics Contest and a Cavy
Costume Contest. We are also adding a Choral Competition featuring middle and high school choirs, with the contest being held
Thursday, Oct. 13, and a Coffee Competition, which is open to licensed N.C.coffee roasters.
Even some of our regular contests have been expanded. For example, the N.C. Egg Association’s Egg Art Competition now includes
a young artists category for competitors 18 years and younger. There is also a group home category under the exceptional/special
needs categories in the Culinary and Handicrafts and Hobbies departments.
In the Clothing and Home Furnishings Department, our new Shawls for a Cause and Hats for a Cause categories will benefit local
cancer treatment facilities, with entries being donated at the close of the fair. I think this will be a great contest.
I hope that when visitors come to the State Fair, they can see through the displays of competitive entries just how proud we are of the
people of our great state.
The N.C. State Fair is one of the top family-friendly fall events in the state, with food and games, midway rides, fireworks, free
grounds acts, music, agricultural displays and much more. There is truly something for everyone.
Take the time to find the right competitions for your talents, get started on your latest masterpiece, and we look forward to seeing you
at the 2016 N.C. State Fair, October 13-23.
Sincerely,
Steven W. Troxler
Commissioner

North Carolina State Fair
Dear Exhibitors,
I know many of you are already busy thinking about what to enter in this year’s N.C. State Fair.
Winning a ribbon at the State Fair is a dream for many, and for good reason. The competitions are one of our most popular features.
To have your entry selected from among hundreds of others from across the state speaks highly of your talents and skills, regardless
of the category. It is definitely something to be proud of.
As you look through the listings, you will see we have lots of familiar competition categories and we’ve even added some new ones that
we are especially excited about. You can find more information about all the competitions on these Web pages. I encourage you to read
the information closely to ensure you meet entry deadlines and requirements.
We are anticipating many new changes at the fairgrounds this year as we continue to make improvements. We are adding a permanent
Sky Lift, which will give fairgoers a birds-eye view of the grounds and transport them from one side to the other. We are also
reconstructing the Blacksmith Shop, opening up the Heritage Village area to better access Tobacco Pavilion activities and the exhibits
of the N.C. Forest Service and N.C. Soil and Water Conservation.
Additionally, the old Hobbies and Handicrafts Building is being torn down and temporarily replaced with a tent this year as part of our
long-term plans. All of the changes are designed to make the fair a better experience for our visitors. Please bear with these changes
during this transitional period.
I want to thank you for being part of what I think is one of the best State Fairs in the country. I look forward to seeing all of your entries.
I know they will be great!
Please do not hesitate to contact our office anytime with questions or for assistance. I wish you the best of luck and hope to see you at
the fairgrounds October 13-23.
Sincerely,
Wesley V. Wyatt

Exhibitors and patrons are sincerely requested to make constructive criticisms and offer helpful suggestions toward bettering
any part or department of this, YOUR STATE FAIR.
Please report any discourtesies by gatemen, concessionaires, showmen, or others connected with the Fair. If, for any
reason, there is a misunderstanding about admission at gates or elsewhere, please pay the admission price asked, take
a receipt for same, and come directly to the Manager's office. Please do not block traffic and delay others by prolonged
arguments with ticket-sellers, gatemen and ticket-takers who are working on strict orders from the management and are
not allowed to vary from them.
Concessions and attractions are granted privileges on the grounds to supply the necessary wants, comforts, conveniences
and pleasures of the patrons. The management will not accept or knowingly allow the continuance of any concession,
show or other attractions of a questionable nature or a demoralizing tendency nor will any concession be permitted where
the business is conducted in other than a legitimate and legal manner.
Drunkenness, quarreling, or the use of profane or obscene language will not be allowed on the grounds. No begging will
be permitted.
No peddling, hawking, or selling of any kind will be allowed in the buildings or on the grounds except by special license
obtained from the Manager.
All dining halls, lunch stands, refreshment booths, and other places dispensing food and beverage must be substantial in
structure and neat in appearance. They must meet all health regulations and must sell only good, wholesome food and
pure honest goods at reasonable prices which must be approved by the Fair management and displayed in a prominent
place. No soft drinks may be sold in bottles.
Parties owning buildings upon the State Fair grounds must notify the manager thirty (30) days prior to the opening of the
Fair as to whether they desire to occupy the same or not, and if so, make arrangements with the superintendent of the
department for such occupancy. Failure to comply with the provisions of this rule will cause the forfeiture of the use of such
building or buildings by the Fair management.
Any party or parties, firm or corporation owning buildings or material upon the State Fairgrounds, without lease, or whose
lease has expired, who shall fail to remove same upon order of the Manager within the time specified, shall forfeit all claim
thereto, which expense of claim must be paid before material is released to the owner.
The management of the State Fair reserves the right to amend, add to and interpret the foregoing and following Rules and
Regulations, and to arbitrarily settle and determine all questions and differences in regard thereto, or otherwise arising out
of, connected with, or incident to the Fair. In the event of conflict between the General Rules and the special rules which
appear as headnotes of the various divisions and departments of the Fair, the latter will take precedence.
Disregard of any rule, misrepresentation on the part of the exhibitor, concessionaire or patrons will forfeit all premiums
won, privileges granted, fees paid, and rights to further participation in the Fair.
ENTRlES
Exhibitors are encouraged to make all entries early. The right is reserved to reject any entry or entries. Entries
received after all space is taken must be rejected.
You will find the CLOSING DATES FOR ENTRIES set out in the Rules and Regulations and the general headings of each
of the various departments. These dates vary with the SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS OF THE SPECIFIC DEPARTMENT.
Check these Closing Dates carefully.
Request the Entry Department to supply you with an adequate number of entry forms. Competition is OPEN TO THE
WORLD in the Rabbit & Cavy Shows, Horse Show, and some livestock departments.
In most other divisions and departments competition is limited to residents of North Carolina.
All entries (with exceptions noted in the Livestock Division for group classes) must be made in the name of the owner,
breeder, manufacturer, grower, producer, or one whose skill the exhibit represents. A firm, to be entitled to exhibit as
such, must have been organized not less than 30 days prior to the closing date for entries, and such firm must have been
organized as a bona fide firm for the purpose of producing, or buying and selling the articles or animals it proposes to
exhibit in the name of such firm. A firm will be regarded as one exhibitor. Official printed forms or copies of forms MUST
BE USED in making applications for entry.
Make sure to use the appropriate entry forms for each department. Be sure to fill out the application form completely,
accurately and legibly. Give your rural route number, post office box number, or city street address, zip code +4, telephone
number, and e-mail address if available. Exhibitors will be allowed to register their exhibits without disclosing a SSN.
Exhibitors are fully aware that choosing NOT to disclose their FULL SSN at the time of registration (paper entry
forms or online), EVEN IF THE EXHIBITOR HAS SUBMITTED AN ENTRY IN THE PAST, forfeits any and all premium
monies to which they were entitled.
14
GENERAL RULES
REMEMBER: No article or animals will be entitled to exhibition space until proper entry has been made. No entry will be
accepted after the closing date listed for each department. Once an entry is made, it cannot be changed except where it
is improperly classed or a mistake has been made in copying the original entry—in which event the changes can be made
only with the permission of the Department Superintendent, or Director in charge, AND THEN ONLY IN THE OFFICE OF
THE "ENTRY SUPERINTENDENT." If the records are altered and do not conform with the information on file in the Entry
Department, payment of premiums will be withheld. No person except personnel of the Entry Department will be allowed
to see the entries, or have access to the entry books, until after the awards are made. The same article or animal cannot
be entered in more than one lot number (except as otherwise stated in the Special Department Rules and Regulations).
Collections and displays must be made up of specimens, other than those entered in single (individual) classes unless
otherwise noted.
Entry fees are not required in most departments - Poultry, rabbit, cavies and certain livestock exhibitors must include
payment of stall, pen, and coop fees with their applications for entry - Dept. H, Arts and Photography has entry fees in the
professional and amateur categories, as well as Dept. A, Commercial Wine entries, Dept. AB Beer, and Dept. B, Cheese
Contest entries.
Additional application forms are available upon request. Call (919) 839-4515.
Livestock entries must be submittted online at www.ncstatefair.org, or mailed to the address below. No faxes
will be accepted.
Entry forms for entries other than livestock, can be completed online at www.ncstatefair.org, faxed to (919-7335079), or mailed to:
N.C. STATE FAIR, ATTN: ENTRY DEPARTMENT
1025 BLUE RIDGE ROAD
RALEIGH, N.C. 27607
EXHIBITS AND EXHIBITORS
The dates on which your exhibits must be in place at State Fair VARY FROM ONE DEPARTMENT TO ANOTHER.
These dates are set out in the Department Headings and Rules and Regulations. Check these dates carefully so you can
get your exhibits IN PLACE AT THE PROPER TIME TO BE JUDGED.
UNCLAIMED EXHIBITS FROM COMPETITIVE DEPARTMENTS, will be considered abandoned if not called for within
one week after the official closing of the Fair, and may be disposed of as the Manager of the Fair sees fit. SEE SPECIAL
RULES for the Culinary and Horticulture Departments.
Remember! All exhibits must be officially entered in the Fair on official printed forms provided for that purpose, or online,
before the closing date for entries in the department. No article or animal will be entitled to space or considered in the
judging until proper entry has been made. Removal of exhibits before the date and time specified will be cause for forfeit
of all premiums won, all fees paid, and the right to further participation in the Fair.
In all but livestock departments, entries and exhibits will remain in place through the entire fair. Release times are scheduled
for the day following the fair due to the lack of parking available nearby for those to pick up entries or exhibits, and in an
effort to keep vehicles off the grounds during crowded conditions. The regulation will also assure those attending the fair
during the evening of the final day of seeing the same exhibits and entries as those attending earlier.
All exhibits will be numbered and recorded in the books of the proper department and class and exhibit tag with corresponding
numbers will be issued. This tag must be securely attached to the exhibit and must remain on the exhibit throughout the
Fair (except that exhibit tags issued for livestock and poultry may be conspicuously displayed upon the stall, pen or coop).
ENTRY TAGS WILL NOT BE MAILED but will be available, at the Entry Department, Administration Building. Call the
entry office for pick-up time when tags are available.
Once the exhibit is numbered and tagged, it should be delivered to the Department Superintendent or Director who will
allocate space and either personally arrange the exhibit in a suitable and attractive display or direct such action by the
exhibitor. The State Fair assumes no responsibility for the incorrect tagging of exhibits. All exhibitors are urged to personally
bring their exhibits to the Fair and enjoy the educational and recreational advantages of the annual exposition.
However, entries may be shipped or mailed to:
N.C. STATE FAIR , Attn. Entry Department
1025 BLUE RIDGE ROAD
RALEIGH, N.C. 27607
Entries will be carefully handled, officially entered, tagged, and otherwise treated in the same manner as previously
described. They will be given the same consideration with regard to display and judging as entries personally delivered.
All exhibits shipped or mailed MUST BE PREPAID. No transportation charges for express, postage, freight or drayage
will be paid by the Fair. Shipments should be carefully labeled, accompanied by a bill of lading, and properly identified
inside and outside the package as to the department, class and premium number under which they have been previously
entered. They should be shipped or mailed at least a week or 10 days prior to the opening of the Fair. The management
will not be responsible for delayed shipments which arrive at the Fair too late to be considered in the judging.
Paid return postage
GENERAL RULES
15
Division Directors and Department Superintendents will have full authority over allocation of space, and will have direct
supervision of all exhibits which are considered on exhibition as a part of the Fair’s attractions, subject to use as these
Directors and Superintendents see fit to add to the educational values of the Fair. Livestock able to be led or driven, or
which will follow, must participate in parades and group exhibitions as directed by the Department Superintendent.
All livestock must be cared for by the exhibitor except as noted in the Junior Dairy Cattle and Market Cattle shows. All stalls
and pens (except entries in Special Exhibits) will be well bedded one time by the Fair, free of charge. Thereafter,
exhibitors will be required to furnish their own bedding and keep all stalls and pens clean. Feed and straw will be sold on the
grounds at prevailing prices. No drenching is allowed unless under the direct supervision of a licensed veterinarian
in the state of North Carolina with a valid medical reason.
When exhibit tags are issued by the Entry Department for each article entered, a stub will be given the exhibitor to serve
as his claim check to recover and secure the release of his exhibit. Claim checks should be guarded carefully, since
Department Superintendents and Directors are not allowed to release any exhibit without presentation of the exhibit tag
stub. If the claim check is lost, such loss should be reported promptly and it will be necessary for the exhibitor to furnish
the Superintendent of the Entry Department proof of ownership of the article on exhibit.
Exhibits entered in competitions which are not claimed within one week after the close of the Fair will be considered
to have been abandoned by the exhibitor and will be disposed of as the Manager of the Fair sees fit. Other exhibits,
materials therein, including concession booths, which are not claimed by the exhibitor or concessionaire within 30 days
after the end of the Fair will be considered to have been abandoned and will become the property of the State Fair.
The Fair management reserves the right to reject any exhibit which does not reflect merit and which would not be a credit
to both the exhibitor and the Fair. Also, the right is reserved to reject exhibits which are deemed objectionable or unsuitable
for exhibition. All entries are accepted conditionally pending inspection of the article or animal to be exhibited. Any article
or animal which proves to be misrepresented or falsely classed will be rejected and the right of the exhibitor to further
participation in the Fair will be denied.
Division Directors, Department Superintendents, and/or Judges must report disqualification of entries to the Manager of
the State Fair immediately after such action is taken. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL JUDGING BE CONSIDERED
OFFICIAL AND PREMIUMS PAID IN A CLASS WHERE DISQUALIFICATION IS RECOMMENDED UNTIL APPROVAL
OF THE DISQUALIFICATION(S) IS OBTAINED FROM THE FAIR MANAGER.
Promiscuous advertising is strictly prohibited. Exhibitors may advertise and distribute literature and free samples from their
place of exhibit only, but may not sell any article or animal from their exhibit space without a permit from the manager. The
distribution of advertising matter which conflicts in any manner with a concession sold by the Management is prohibited.
Commercial exhibitors and concessionaires are responsible for keeping the space in and around their exhibits, including
unused space, aisles and roadways, clean and free of rubbish. An area of 10 feet around each exhibit booth and concession
stand must be thoroughly cleaned by the exhibitor or concessionaire at the end of each Fair day. Failure to do so will be cause
for cancellation of contract. No exhibit space assigned may be shared or sublet without permission of the Fair manager.
JUDGING AND AWARDS
Any and all participants in any and all competitions covered by this online Premium Book listing hereby acknowledge
that they are voluntarily agreeing to participate in said event. Any and all participants in any and all events covered by
this online Premium Book hereby expressly acknowledge in a knowing and informed manner that the participant has no
constitutional or statutory right to participate or compete in any and all events covered by this online Premium Book. By
participating, participants agree to abide by and be subject to all rules and procedures applicable to the event entered
as stated in this online Premium Book.
Judges will not award premiums to any article or animal because of its mere presence. It must be individually worthy.
It is not the policy of the Fair to encourage indifferent production of any kind, or to distribute premiums equally among
exhibitors. No premium will be awarded to any exhibit that does not possess high intrinsic merit.
Unless otherwise specified in the Department Rules and Regulations, NO EXHIBITOR MAY WIN MORE THAN TWO
PREMIUMS IN ANY ONE INDIVIDUAL CLASS, AND NOT MORE THAN ONE PREMIUM IN ANY GROUP CLASS.
“Participant” includes competitors, exhibitors, immediate family members, and any other members involved in the fitting
and showing of an animal.
No participant may accompany judges during their deliberations except such attendants as are necessary to handle and
show livestock and other such exhibits. Any exhibitor attempting to interfere with the judges during their adjudication
or who publicly expresses disapproval of the decision of the judges, will be excluded from further competition and any
premiums previously won will be forfeited.
No participant may attempt to influence, interfere with or publicly express disapproval of the show superintendent. Such
behavior will result in the participant being excluded from further competition, and any premiums previously won will be
forfeited.
16
GENERAL RULES
Premiums will be paid only on the basis of the records of the judging reports, which will be signed by the judge and by
the Department Superintendent or Director. Ribbons or designation of placing will be securely attached to the articles
upon which they were awarded if possible, but the ribbons have no value in the payment of premiums since they may
become detached and find their way on to the wrong exhibit.
PROTESTS
The protest procedures and remedies set out in this section of the online Premium Book listing are the exclusive
procedures and remedies concerning any protest, discipline or complaint regarding any action of the Fair arising in any
way from participation in any and all events covered by this online Premium Book listing.
Decision of the judges will be final, and no appeal will be considered except in cases of protest in writing submitted to
the Livestock Director and the State Fair Manager, with strong evidence of fraud or violation of the rules of the Fair.
Any and all participants in any and all events covered by this online Premium Book expressly acknowledge and
expressly agree that they will have the burden of going forward and the burden of proof concerning the establishment of
grounds for any protest, discipline or complaint brought under the provisions of this online Premium Book listing.
Any and all participants in any and all events covered by this online Premium Book listing may file a protest, other than
those involving the results of drug testing, any time prior to the show and up to 48 hours from the conclusion of the show
involving the class in question.
Any and all participants in any and all events covered by this online Premium Book listing shall have 10 days following
the receipt of testing results to file any protests, challenges of disciplinary action or complaints brought under the
provisions of this online Premium Book listing involving the results of drug testing.
The N.C. State Fair will not consider any protests, challenges of disciplinary action or complaints based upon the
statement that a judge or judges are incompetent.
Any and all livestock protests, challenges of disciplinary action or complaints filed pursuant to this paragraph shall be
accompanied by a deposit of $250 which will be forfeited if the protest is not sustained. Deposit must be filed with the
State Fair Manager contemporaneously with any and all protests, challenges of disciplinary action or complaints.
Should fraud, deception or any violation of the rules covered by this online Premium Book listing be discovered prior to
the sale, such animal shall not be permitted to sell. If the Grand Champion is disqualified at the discretion of the State
Fair Manager, the Reserve Grand Champion will become the Grand Champion. If a third place animal was identified
it may be moved up to Reserve Grand Champion at the discretion of the State Fair Manager. No other animals will be
advanced.
Should a violation be discovered after the Sale, all sale money shall be returned to the buyer. All placings in the show
will stand. No animals will be advanced.
Any attempt to misrepresent an animal in any way will be considered fraud and deception, and can result in
disqualification and an indefinite ban from the N.C. State Fair. In addition, any participant whose animals are found
suspect of using illegal drugs or barred for any other reason at any fair or livestock show holding membership in the
International Association of Fairs and Expositions (IAFE) will be barred indefinitely from showing at the North Carolina
State Fair.
Tampering and/or misrepresentation as to breeding, age, ownership and any other irregularity in showing will be
considered fraud and deception.
To maintain a high degree of confidence and integrity in the livestock shows, the N.C. State Fair reserves the right to
disqualify any animal fitted in an unethical manner and indefinitely ban the participant and the participant’s assistants
who fitted the animal involved.
Any artificial means of removing or remedying physical defects or conformation in exhibition animals (i.e. lifting or filling
under the skin) will be considered fraud or deception. No unnatural means of providing an animal feed, water or other
fluids (i.e. stomach pump, IV) will be allowed. All participants whose animals give evidence of such treatment will be
barred indefinitely from exhibiting at the N.C. State Fair. All exhibitors, their immediate family and any other parties
involved in the unethical fitting and showing of an animal may be barred indefinitely from exhibiting or showing at the
N.C. State Fair and will forfeit all premiums, prize monies and awards won in any division .
Entries made in wrong classes may be reclassed by the Department Superintendent, BUT ONLY IF SUCH RECLASSIFICATION
IS MADE IN THE OFFICE OF, AND WITH THE APPROVAL OF, THE SUPERINTENDENT OF THE ENTRY DEPARTMENT.
Records must be changed when entries are reclassified. If the records are altered and the entry department files are not
changed, premiums will be withheld. Judges, when requested, may give the reasons for their decisions embracing the
value and desirable qualities of the exhibits to which they have awarded premiums.
GENERAL RULES

LIVESTOCK
HEALTH REGULATIONS
All health regulations will be strictly enforced, and decisions of the regulatory veterinarian concerning animal health
status are final. No animals may be unloaded on the fairgrounds before being checked and approved by the regulatory
veterinarian in charge. ALL LIVESTOCK WILL BE REQUIRED TO HAVE AN ENTRANCE HEALTH EXAMINATION AT
TIME OF CHECK IN AS A PREREQUISITE FOR ENTRY ONTO THE FAIRGROUNDS. ANY ANIMAL NOT PASSING THIS
EXAM WILL BE SET ASIDE FOR DISPOSITION BY THE SHOW VETERINARIAN. All entries shall be inspected prior to
unloading between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. Animals will not be allowed to enter the barns until inspected
and passed by health officials. An approval card will be issued after the ENTRANCE HEALTH EXAMINATION and
will be required for animals to enter the barns. Any and all animals not meeting the entry requirements, unthrifty
nature, unsuitable condition and/or exhibiting any signs of disease or illness, may be refused entry, required to
be isolated and/or required to be returned to the farm of origin. During the duration of the Fair, any and all animals
of unthrifty nature, unsuitable condition and/or exhibiting any signs of disease or illness or found not to have met
entry requirements after entry may be required to be isolated and/or returned to the farm of origin.
All animals must have a form of identification (ear tag, tattoo, ear notch, or microchip -readers must be supplied by owner)
to enter the fairgrounds.
All sheep and goats must comply with USDA and NCDA&CS Scrapie Eradication Program guidelines. Sheep and
goats without a scrapie tag, or a registration paper with corresponding tattoo or microchip information at the time
of check-in will not be allowed. Scrapie Flock ID numbers must be presented at the time of check-in before an approval
card can be issued. This number is not the same as the National Premise ID.
All livestock except Horses will require a State or National Premise ID prior to showing at the State Fair. No exceptions.
For those exhibitors showing multiple species only one premise ID is needed if on the same farm. The Premise ID must
be included on the Entry Form at the time it is submitted. If you do not have a premise ID number you can obtain one by
printing and filling out the following form http://www.ncagr.gov/ncfarmid/registrationform.htm. For more information visit
http://www.ncfarmid.com.
Drug testing may include, but not limited to, the following drugs: Furosemide; Bumetanide; Boldenone; Nandrolone;
Flunixin; Phenylbutazone; Dexamethasone; Isoflupredone; Flumethasone; Methylprednisolone; Azaperone; Acepromazine;
Chlorpromazine, and other tranqualizers; Clenbuterol; Balbuterol; Terbutaline; Albuterol; Isoetharine. Paylean is labeled
for swine only, Optiflex is labeled for feedlot cattle only. Paylean and Optiflex are illegal for use in sheep and goats.
The health regulations of the Veterinary Division of the NC Dept. of Agriculture will be strictly enforced. Any questionable
health problems will be referred to the Show Veterinarian, show committee, and/or the State Veterinarian. Animals with
obvious abscesses (opened or unopened), ringworm, soremouth or any other signs of contagious disease WILL NOT BE
ALLOWED IN THE BARN. Examples of lesions, treatments and prevention strategies, courtesy of NCSU-CVM, can be
seen on the NCDA&CS Veterinary Division website: http://www.ncagr.com/vet/ (click on MSF/SF Health Requirements
under the Vet Div Highlights section).
The Fair staff works diligently to prevent diseased animals from entering the fairground, though owners should
consider that animals may be exposed to infectious agents while at the Fair. It is a best management practice to
keep animals returning from the Fair separate from your animals at home for 2-3 weeks. By isolating exhibited
animals for this time you have the opportunity to see if they were exposed to disease and infected while at the Fair.
Drug and Chemical Compounds Policy for All NCDA&CS Sponsored Fairs, Exhibitions, and Events
The use of any drug and/or chemical compound in any manner that is not approved by the FDA, including but not limited
to indications and directions on species, age, dosage amounts and/or withdrawal times, is illegal and prohibited.
HEALTH REGULATIONS
23
The owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer and/or absolutely responsible person must notify the show management prior to
admittance into the livestock barns of any animal that is being administered drugs or chemical compounds in accordance
with approved FDA guidelines for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal. Acceptance of the animal for
exhibition will be at the discretion of the livestock superintendent and the show veterinarian and will depend on such factors
as the nature of the drug or chemical compound and justification by an accredited veterinarian with a valid client-patient
relationship. Regardless, livestock will not be allowed to exhibit if use of any drugs or chemical compounds will affect the
animal's performance or appearance at the event.
Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers and/or absolutely responsible persons will be held accountable for the presence of any
violative drug residue from their animal and subject to the disposition as specified below:
1. Findings of proof in intentional use of any drug or chemical compound in a manner described as illegal and prohibited by the Policy on use of Drugs and Chemical Compounds will result in immediate disqualification, forfeiture of all premiums and prizes, market value of the animal (in the case of market animals), and a life-time ban on exhibiting in NCDA&CS sponsored events.
2. If proof of intentional use of any drug or chemical compound in an illegal and prohibited manner cannot be found on an animal that has been demonstrated by the above detailed laboratory methods to have the presence of such a substance, a first time offense for a positive test will result in immediate disqualification, forfeiture of all premiums and prizes, market value of the animal (in the case of market animals), and a one-year prohibition on exhibiting in NCDA&CS sponsored events by the exhibitor of the positive animal. A second time offense by that exhibitor for any drug or chemical compound in a manner described as illegal and prohibited will result in immediate disqualification, forfeiture of all premiums and prizes, market value of the animal (in the case of market animals), and a life-time ban on exhibiting in NCDA&CS sponsored events by the exhibitor of that positive animal.

CAMPING ON FAIRGROUNDS
http://www.ncstatefair.org/facilities/camping.htm
Sites are first come, first serve. No advance reservations taken. If you have questions call (919)612-6767.
EXHIBITS AND EXHIBITORS
Only vehicles operated by the Fair management will be allowed in the barn area.
The Fair management will use diligence to ensure the safety of livestock entered for exhibition or display, but under no
circumstances will it be responsible for loss, injury, theft or damage by fire, lightning, wind, or any other agency, to such
livestock on exhibition or display.
All livestock on exhibition must be cared for by the exhibitor (except entries in Special Junior Dairy Cattle Exhibits). All stalls
and pens (except entries in Special Exhibits) will be well bedded one time by the Fair, free of charge. Thereafter,
exhibitors will be required to furnish their own bedding.
The Fair reserves the right to discriminate against both excessive obesity, which cannot be a profitable condition for breeding
animals and excessive leanness, in which conditions are unfit for exhibition.
No barren animals will be eligible in breeding classes. An affidavit that an animal is a breeder must be furnished on
request.
All cattle must be halter-broken. Boars over one year of age must have their tusks removed.
A great educational feature of the Fair is the exhibitions and parades of approved livestock by breeds and ages. Exhibitors
refusing for any cause not meeting with the approval of the management to lead out animals for parade will not only forfeit
all premiums won, but will be barred from further participation in the Fair, and will be required to remove their stock from
the Fairgrounds within six hours after such refusal, and will forfeit any fees paid.
Misrepresentation as to breeding and irregularity in showing will be exposed and any premium won by such exhibitor will
be withheld. Certificates of registration must be shown on demand of the Livestock Superintendent.
Any artificial means of removing or remedying physical defects or conformation in exhibition animals, including the use of
steroids and other drugs, as well as lifting, dyeing or filling under the skin, will be considered fraud and deception.
Drenching will not be allowed except under the direct supervision of a North Carolina licensed veterinarian for
a valid medical reason. The North Carolina State Fair Management reserves the right to test the grand and reserve
champion of any show, and to conduct other random testing as deemed appropriate. The grand and reserve champions
may be sampled at the fair. Exhibitors involved in any such treatment will be barred from exhibition at this Fair, and all
Fairs holding membership in the International Association of Fairs and Exposition will be notified.
26
LIVESTOCK
Exhibitors must keep the space in the rear of their stalls or pens, and the alleyways in the exhibition halls, clear and clean.
All litter must be deposited where directed by the Superintendent of Directors.
Animals must be transported to and from the Fairgrounds at the expense of the exhibitor, except for some Junior Exhibitors.
The Fair management will not pay any charges for express, freight, or drayage.
Exhibitors are responsible for ascertaining when their stock will be judged. Animals must be in the show ring promptly after
being called. Exhibitors failing to comply with this rule may have their animals excluded from competition.
Exhibitors are not allowed to make substitutions between breeds. One substitution may be made within the breed, at
approval of superintendent. See exceptions in certain departments.
JUDGES AND AWARDS
NO EXHIBITOR MAY RECEIVE MORE THAN TWO PREMIUM MONIES IN ANY ONE CLASS. However, ribbons will
be awarded exactly as the animals are placed by the judge. EXAMPLE: An exhibitor makes three entries in a class, and
his animals place “First”, “Second” and “Third”. He would receive only the first and second premium monies, but all three
ribbons. Then, the owner of the animal placing “Fourth” would receive the third-place premium money and the fourth-place
ribbon; and so on down the line.
The decision of the judges will be final, and no appeal will be considered except in the case of protest. The rules of the
International Association of Fairs and Expositions govern appeals at the North Carolina State Fair. Protests must be in
writing and filed with the State Fair Manager within twenty four hours of the day following the award, accompanied by a
protest fee of $250.00 which will be retained by the fair if the protest is not sustained by an impartial protest committee
appointed by the State Fair Manager. No unworthy animal will be awarded a premium. Where there are fewer animals
shown in the class than the number of premiums offered, the judge may, at his/her discretion, award a prize or prizes of
such grade as the animal or animals deserve.
Where there is only one entry in a class, second premium will be awarded unless in the opinion of the judge the animal is
sufficiently meritorious as to justify the full award as provided for.
HERDSMEN’S CONTESTS
Special prizes will be awarded in contests for herdsmen, shepherd and caretakers of animals in some livestock departments.
All herdsmen will automatically be considered entrants and no special entry is required. Judges will be assigned by the
Livestock Director. The contests will start at a time designated by each Department.
The following score card will serve as the basis for the judges in the Herdsmen’s contest making their decisions.

Cleanliness of stalls/pens and alleyways........................................................................................... 20

IAFE CODE OF SHOW RING ETHICS
(INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF FAIRS AND EXPOSITIONS)
Exhibitors of animals at livestock shows shall at all times deport themselves with honesty and good sportsmanship.
Their conduct in this competitive environment shall always reflect the highest standards of honor and dignity to promote
the advancement of agricultural education. This code applies to junior as well as open class exhibitors who compete in
structured classes of competition. This code applies to all livestock offered in any event at a livestock show. In addition
to the "IAFE Code of Show Ring Ethics", fairs and livestock shows may have rules and regulations which they impose
on the local, county, state, provincial and national levels.
All youth leaders working with junior exhibitors are under an affirmative responsibility to do more than avoid improper
conduct or questionable acts. Their moral values must be so certain and positive that those younger and more pliable
will be influenced by their fine example. Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers and absolutely responsible persons who
violate the code of ethics will forfeit premiums, awards and auction proceeds and shall be prohibited from future
exhibition in accordance with the rules
adopted by the respective fairs and livestock shows. Exhibitors who violate this code of ethics demean the integrity of all
livestock exhibitors and should be prohibited from competition at all livestock shows in the United States and Canada.
The following is a list of guidelines for all exhibitors and all livestock in competitive events:
1) All exhibitors must present, upon request of fair and livestock show officials, proof of ownership, length of ownership,
and age of all animals entered. Misrepresentation of ownership, age, or any facts relating thereto is prohibited.
2) Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers, or absolutely responsible persons shall provide animal health certificates from
licensed veterinarians upon request by fair or livestock show officials.
3) Junior exhibitors are expected to care for and groom their animals while at fairs or livestock shows.
4) Animals shall be presented to show events where they will enter the food chain free of violative drug residues. The
act of entering an animal in a livestock show is the giving of, consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer and/
or absolutely responsible person for show management to obtain any specimens of urine, saliva, blood, or other
substances from the animal to be used in testing. Animals not entered in an event which culminates with the animal
entering the food chain shall not be administered drugs other than in accordance with applicable federal, state and
provincial statutes, regulations and rules. Livestock shall not be exhibited if the drugs administered in accordance
with federal, state and provincial statutes, regulations and rules affect the animal's performance or appearance at
the event.
If the laboratory report on the analysis of saliva, urine, blood, or other sample taken from livestock indicates
the presence of forbidden drugs or medication, this shall be prima facie evidence such substance has been
administered to the animal either internally or externally. It is presumed that the sample of urine, saliva, blood, or
other substance tested by the laboratory, to which it is sent, is the one taken from the animal in question, its integrity
is preserved and all procedures of said collection and preservation, transfer to the laboratory and analysis of the
sample are correct and accurate and the report received from the laboratory pertains to the sample taken from
the animal in question and correctly reflects the condition of the animal at the time the sample was taken, with the
burden on the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person to prove otherwise.
At any time after an animal arrives on the fair or livestock show premises, all treatments involving the use of drugs
and/or medications for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal shall be administered by a licensed
veterinarian.
CODE OF ETHICS
37
5) Any surgical procedure or injection of any foreign substance or drug or the external application of any substance
(irritant, counterirritant, or similar substance) which could affect the animal's performance or alter its natural contour,
confirmation, or appearance, except external applications of substances to the hoofs or horns of animals which
affect appearance only and except for surgical procedures performed by a duly licensed veterinarian for the sole
purpose of protecting the health of the animal, is prohibited.
6) The use of showing and/or handling practices or devices such as striking animals to cause swelling, using electrical
contrivance, or other similar practices are not acceptable and are prohibited.
7) Direct criticism or interference with the judge, fair or livestock show management, other exhibitors, breed
representatives, or show officials before, during, or after the competitive event is prohibited. In the furtherance
of their official duty, all judges, fair and livestock show management, or other show officials shall be treated with
courtesy, cooperation and respect and no person shall direct abusive or threatening conduct toward them.
8) No owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person shall conspire with another person or persons to
intentionally violate this code of ethics or knowingly contribute or cooperate with another person or persons either
by affirmative action or inaction to violate this code of ethics. Violation of this rule shall subject such individual to
disciplinary action.
9) The application of this code of ethics provides for absolute responsibility for an animal's condition by an owner,
exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or participant whether or not he or she was actually instrumental in or had actual knowledge
of the treatment of the animal in contravention of this code of ethics.
10)The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible
person to have disciplinary action taken by the fair or livestock show for violation of this Code of Show Ring Ethics
and any other rules of competition of the fair or livestock show without recourse against the fair or livestock show.
The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent that any proceedings or disciplinary action taken by the fair
or livestock show may be published with the name of the violator or violators in any publication of the International
Association of Fairs and Expositions, including Fairs and Expos and any special notices to members.
11)The act of entering of an animal in a fair or livestock show is the giving of verification by the owner, exhibitor,
fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person that he or she has read the IAFE Code of Show Ring Ethics and
understands the consequences of and penalties provided for actions prohibited by the code. It is further a consent
that any action which contravenes these rules and is also in violation of federal, state, or provincial statutes,
regulations, or rules may be released to appropriate law enforcement authorities with jurisdiction over such
infractions.

CODE OF ETHICS
LIVESTOCK HALL OF FAME
The Livestock Advisory Board has approved the creation of the North Carolina State Fair Livestock Hall of Fame to recognize
and honor outstanding supporters of the Fair. Individuals will be inducted each year, beginning with an inaugural ceremony
during the 1980 Fair, based on their activities supporting the Fair and their length of service.
Candidates for induction can be producers of livestock that have exhibited and promoted livestock shows at the fair, or
a person who has served as a fair employee, representative of business, extension workers and others from agricultural
organizations. Their contributions have occurred in the past as well as the present, and deceased nominees will be
considered.
Inductees will be recognized in the Livestock Hall of Fame room.

RULES AND REGULATIONS
Except in cases of conflict, in which event the following Rules and Regulations will prevail, the General Rules and Regulations
of the Livestock Division and the General Rules and Regulations of the Fair will govern this department. BE SURE TO
READ BOTH BEFORE ENTERING OR COMPETING IN THIS DEPARTMENT. Some - but not all - are repeated herewith
for emphasis, and others of the following Rules and Regulations apply only to this Department. MAKE YOUR ENTRIES
EARLY!! The right is reserved to reject entries received after all available space is taken and after the closing date.
Enter online at www.ncstatefair.org. If using paper entry, use separate forms for making entries in other departments and
separate forms for the Junior and Senior Shows. Be sure to fill in the application form completely, accurately, and legibly.
Give your rural route number, post office box number, or city street address, zip code, social security or federal ID number.
Entries in the Open Show must be made in the name of the exhibitor shown on the registration certificate as the
owner and must conform to the breed percentages recommended by the respective breed association.
The exhibitor and breeder of an animal are defined as follows: "Where the animals are registered in the name(s) of
different members of a family, residing on one farm and when the herd is one unit, all entries may be considered
as a single exhibitor."
Animals owned in partnership or by a syndicate may be shown in the name of the partnership or syndicate only;
except that at the time of entry a determination shall be made that such animals will be shown in the name of one
partner or syndicate member and shown in the same way in group classes.
Exhibitors are not allowed to make substitutions between breeds. Two substitutions per exhibitor may be made within a
breed.
Indicate on the form the total number of animals you will exhibit, and the total number of stall spaces you will require,
including those to be used for gear, feed and bedding. No fee is required for entries exclusively in the Junior Show. Junior
entries wishing to show in the open show will be required to pay entry fee in accordance with open show registration.
Entries in the group and herd classes must have previously been exhibited in the individual classes.
List the class number, as indicated in the premium list, for which each entry is made. Enter each animal separately.
List the name and registry number of each animal entered, its date of birth, and its sex. Bring your registration certificates
to the Fair; they must be shown at any time if requested by the Superintendent. Registration papers will be required at
the time of show of all group classes.
All animals must be registered with their respective breed associations in the name of the bona fide owner and breed
percentages must conform to breed association standards. No animal will be allowed to show if registration of animal is
pending.
In breeding classes, to be eligible to show, all cows 36 months of age or older must have produced a calf carried to maturity
within the last 12 months prior to the opening date of the Fair. In case the exhibitor, upon demand of the superintendent,
cannot verify by affidavit or registration certificate the facts of the above requirements, the animal will be excluded from
competition.
In making awards in the breeding classes, the judge will lay much stress on the evidence of superior breeding qualities.
When animals show evidence of being “overdone” (overloaded with flesh) they will be discriminated against accordingly.
FEES
Entry fees are required for all entries in the senior and open classes of the livestock Division. Entries exclusively in the
junior livestock shows are not subject to entry fees. There is a $5.00 processing fee for all paper entries.
All applicants for entries must be noted on the entry form, AND REMITTANCES FOR SAME MUST ACCOMPANY THE
ENTRY APPLICATION FORM. Reservations will not be made unless accompanied by the required fee and REMEMBER:
THE RIGHT IS RESERVED TO REJECT ENTRIES AFTER ALL AVAILABLE SPACE IS TAKEN. ENTRIES WILL BE
ACCEPTED IN THE ORDER RECEIVED.
Animals duly entered in the show which will be exhibited competitively in the show ring will have priority on stall space;
thereafter, should additional space be available, display animals will be assigned stall space.

00559—Premier Exhibitor Class-Will be computed from exhibitor’s placement in individual classes only as follows: 3 points for each First; 2 points for each Second; 1 point for each Third. Maximum number of placements used to determine winner shall be limited to 5. (In case of tie, group class placements will be used to determine the winner).................................................................................................................................Banner
GROUND RULE
In our Standard Show Classification only the Premier Breeders Class specifies “owned by the exhibitor.” The other group
classes need not be owned by exhibitor, and therefore cannot be used to break ties.
To correct the possibility of a tie for Premier Exhibitor Class, where a tie exists through 5 placements, and neither exhibitor
has an entry in the Premier Breeder Class, additional placements (beyond the stated 5 limitation) in the individual classes
will be used, but only to the point where the tie is broken.

JIMMY SMITH MEMORIAL AWARD
The N.C. Simmental Association will be presenting an award to an outstanding Simmental exhibitor in the Junior Beef Heifer
Show in memory of the late Jimmy Smith of Cove City. Jimmy Smith was a strong supporter of the Junior Beef Heifer Show
by providing heifers for many urban and rural youth to show, and providing guidance both inside and outside the show
ring. A belt buckle will be awarded to a Junior Simmental exhibitor that shows good sportsmanship, leadership and good
conduct throughout the Junior Show weekend. Assisting other exhibitors, helping to keep the barn clean and promoting
agriculture will be taken into account by the selection committee. This award will be determined by a committee assigned
by the N.C. Simmental Association, and will be presented during the Junior Simmental Show.
SENATOR JAMES D. SPEED ACHIEVEMENT SCHOLARSHIP
The Senator James D. Speed Achievement Scholarship is presented to a deserving Junior Beef Exhibitor, age 14-18
years old, in the Jr. Market Steer and/or Jr. Beef Heifer competition. The scholarship continues the legacy that Senator
Speed created as a 32-year member of the North Carolina State Legislature and through his commitment and dedication
to agricultural interests. To honor his memory, the Franklin County Cattlemen's Association is honoring him by establishing
and presenting an academic scholarship to an outstanding achiever in the Junior Beef Program. The scholarship is funded
through an endowment in the NC Cooperative Extension Service Foundation.
The Senator James D. Speed Achievement Scholarship is valued at $500. The Achievement Scholar will demonstrate
strong leadership skills, integrity, good sportsmanship, achievement of goals, and be an advocate of today's agricultural
industry. The scholar will be selected by the Franklin County Cattlemen's Association Scholarship Committee and will be
announced at the NC State Fair. To be considered for the scholarship, applicants should download the scholarship application
at www.FranklinCountyFarmFresh.com or call (919)496-3344. Applications are due by September 15th to be considered
for the scholarship. The Senator James D. Speed Achievement Scholarship will be awarded during the scholar's freshman
year and will be made payable to the scholar's selected institution of higher education on behalf of the named scholar.
MILEAGE PAYMENTS
The State Fair Management will pay mileage compensation for animals exhibited in the Junior Heifer Show as outlined here.
Payment will be made for each animal based on the distance (one-way) between the county seat of the county involved
and Raleigh. For computing mileage, the official Highway Map issued by the State Department of Transportation will be
used. Payments will be made on the basis of $.50 per animal, per mile.

INFORMATION FOR YOUTH POULTRY EXHIBITORS
If they desire, Junior Exhibitors from age 9 through 18, may designate on their entry forms that their entries be judged
in the Youth Class "P" instead of the Open Class "Q". Please note the appropriate department and lot number for youth
entries. For example: To enter a Barred Plymouth Rocks Pullet please write P00004 in the appropriate space located
on the entry form.
The rules and regulations, entry fees and awards are the same for both classes. Designated Youth entries are not to be
judged in the Open Class competition. However, youth can make additional entries in the open show with different poultry.
An individual youth can make 30 entries total from the six sections. They are Sections 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, and 106
(Youth). In addition to the regular premium and ribbons, a champion in each class in the Youth show will be selected. The
champion to receive a rosette.
*This class open to youth only and premiums to be the same.
*Please note that Junior Exhibitors can make 30 entries. They can come from one class or mixed entries from the six
classes.
RULES AND REGULATIONS
(See Poultry Exhibitor's Certificate on the Poultry Department page at www.ncstatefair.org under Competitions.)
Except in cases of conflict, in which the following Rules and Regulations will prevail, the General Rules and Regulations
of the Fair will govern this department. BE SURE TO READ THE Information & General Rules for Exhibitors and Patrons
BEFORE ENTERING OR COMPETING IN THIS DEPARTMENT. Some - but not all - are repeated here for emphasis,
and other of the following Rules and Regulations apply only to this department. MAKE YOUR ENTRIES EARLY! The
right is reserved to reject entries received after all space is taken.
Online or official printed forms must be used in making applications for entry. One will be found in the back of this book.
Additional copies are available upon request or online at www.ncstatefair.org under the competitions tab. Use separate
forms for entries in other departments of the FAIR. Be sure to fill out the application form completely, accurately and
legibly. Give your rural route number, post office box number or city street address, zip code, and telephone number.
Social Security numbers are REQUIRED for all exhibitors in order for premium monies to be awarded.
In filling out the form, in the first column write the section number; in the second column write the Department letter and
class number; in the third column write in the breed description exactly as it appears in the catalog. An example - Section
101, 00004 for the open show and 00004 for the Youth show, Barred Plymouth Rock pullet. Next enter age and sex (Cock,
Hen, Cockerel or Pullet). In the column headed: “Leg Band No. ” BE SURE TO LIST THIS EXACTLY AS THE BIRD WILL
BE BANDED WHEN BROUGHT TO THE FAIR. Important: LIST ONLY ONE BIRD ON EACH LINE OF THE APPLICATION
FORM. Space cannot be reserved until receipt of the coop fee, and, remember: The right is reserved to reject entries after
all available space is taken. A coop fee of $2.00 for each bird exhibited must accompany your application form. Please
note: no changes will be made to the entry listing after the September 15, 2016 deadline.
All birds must be entered in the name of the bona fide owner, who must have owned the birds for at least 60 days before
the closing date for entries. Owners and breeders must maintain a breeding establishment sufficient to raise the birds so
exhibited.
All birds are entered at the risk of the owner, and the State Fair management will not be responsible for any loss or damage,
but will exercise all possible vigilance in the care of exhibits. No one will be allowed to handle fowl on display except the
owners and officials of the show, without permission of the directors. The right is reserved to coop two or more birds of
the same variety, and belonging to the same person, together if absolutely necessary. In no case will two male birds be
placed in the same coop.
The Fair staff works diligently to prevent diseased animals from entering the fairground, though owners should
consider that animals may be exposed to infectious agents while at the Fair. It is a Best Management Practice to
keep animals returning from the Fair separate from your animals at home for 2-3 weeks. By isolating exhibited
animals for this time you have the opportunity to see if they were exposed to disease and infected while at the Fair.
The American Standard of Perfection will be the guide of the judges in awarding premium. The premiums will be paid only
on standard varieties listed in this catalog, and then only to worthy specimens. To win first premium, a bird must score at
least 88 points; for second premium, 87 points. For less than 87 points, third and fourth prizes will be awarded.
The decision of the judges will be final. Protest will be entertained only when addressed to the Division Director of the
Division III within three days following the award, and then only when accompanied by a protest fee of $5.00. Basis for
protest: (1) Placing a disqualified bird; (2) Fraud; and (3) Clerical error. This fee will be forfeited unless protest is sustained
by a majority of the judging staff and officials of the show. After the judging, the management will endeavor to place on
the coops any advertising material supplied by the exhibitor for his coop.

under the Poultry Department listing.
All chickens and turkeys for exhibition at the Fair will originate from U.S. Pullorum-Typhoid Clean or equivalent flocks or
have a negative pullorum-typhoid test within 90 days of admission to the Fair. The test requirements may be satisfied by a
negative test conducted by an official state tester at the time the birds are brought to the Fair. The fee for pullorum-typhoid
testing at the fairgrounds will be ten cents per bird, with a minimum fee of $1.00 per exhibitor.
No poultry shall have received a live virus vaccine within 45 days prior to entering the Fair. It is recommended that all
birds be vaccinated for laryngotracheitis with a modified live virus vaccine at least 45 days and not more than one year
before the show.
All chickens, turkeys and guineas must be identified with numbered tamper-proof bands. Bands placed on birds tested by
state testers will satisfy this requirement. Poultry entered at the Fair are subject to examination (including blood test and
swabs by a representative of the North Carolina Department of Agriculture.) Birds will not be accepted which are infected
with or showing any clinical signs of an infectious or communicable disease, or are infested with lice and/or mites.

THE OPEN SHOW PLEASE WRITE DEPARTMENT LETTER "R01" ON YOUR ENTRY FORM IN THE SPACE MARKED
"DEPARTMENT LETTERS AND LOT NUMBERS". ALSO PRINT THE WORD "OPEN" ON THE ENTRY FORM. YOUTH

the State Fair. This show is a sanctioned American Rabbit Breeders Association Show hosted by the N.C. State Fair.
Membership in or registration of animals with the American Rabbit Breeders Association is not required to enter or compete.

judging, the rabbit exhibitor may place a business card on the coop of "For Sale" rabbits. Prices may not be listed and
once sold the business card must be removed by the exhibitor. An exhibitor may leave cards at the Information Booth with
the attendant for people asking about animals for sale; however, exhibitors may not solicit business. Once accepted for
show, all rabbits are to remain on display until after the close of the fair. No rabbit can be removed from the Rabbit
Show Room until the release of exhibits on the Monday following the State Fair. If a rabbit is removed prior to that date, all
winnings for the exhibitor are forfeited for that rabbit and for all other rabbits entered by the exhibitor. If a rabbit is sold and
subsequently removed from the show room prior to the Monday after the fair closes, both the purchaser and the exhibitor
who entered the rabbit forfeit all winnings for their entire entries.

EXHIBITS AND JUDGING
The Fair management will use diligence to insure the safety of stock, and will have qualified attendants on duty day and
night to feed, water, and care for the animals, but under no circumstances will it be responsible for loss, injury, theft, or
damage by fire, lightning, wind or any other cause. Stock brought to the showroom by the bona fide owner will be checked
in by a qualified veterinarian and attendant. Any animal arriving sick, or in poor flesh or fur condition, will not be accepted
and will be returned to the exhibitor at check in time and for the purpose of judging will be considered "Not Shown" and
the entry fee forfeited. No rabbit under eight weeks of age will be judged. Any stock which becomes ill during the course
of the exhibition will be removed and placed under the care of a veterinarian.
No shipments of rabbits will be accepted. Rabbits are to be delivered by the exhibitor. If the rabbit does not pass examination,
then the exhibitor must take the rabbit home. The Fair management will not be responsible for any loss or damage.
186
RABBITS
No person will be allowed to handle exhibits without permission of the department directors. Any exhibitor interfering with,
attempting to influence, criticizing, or otherwise causing delay and confusion during the judging, will be barred from further
competition and will forfeit all awards and premiums for the show. The Rabbit Barn will be closed to the public until judging
is completed and only officials of the show and their designated helpers will be permitted therein.
Each animal must have a permanent ear mark in the left ear, which must be listed on the entry form. No adhesive
tape, pen, or pencil marks will be accepted. There is a $2.00 fee for each rabbit tattooed at the show.
The right is reserved to substitute another judge in the case the judge listed is unable to officiate. Each animal must be
entered in the name of the bona fide owner, otherwise exhibitor forfeits all entry fees and premiums.
NO SUBSTITUTIONS OF ANIMALS ALLOWED EXCEPT IN SAME BREED, CLASS, AND SEX, WITH SUBSTITUTION DONE
AT THE TIME OF CHECK-IN, NO EXCEPTIONS.
HUSBANDRY and HEALTH REGULATIONS
The coops are equipped with an automatic watering system and an open water container. IF YOUR RABBITS ARE
NOT ACCUSTOMED TO AUTOMATIC WATERERS OR OPEN CONTAINERS–PLEASE BRING A CLEAN WATER
BOTTLE FOR EACH RABBIT. The feed for the rabbits is supplied by the Fair, and will contain 16% protein. A sudden
change in diet is stressful for rabbits. If your rabbit(s) are not accustomed to eating this type of feed, it is HIGHLY
RECOMMENDED that you purchase a small amount of feed and slowly adjust your rabbit(s) to the new diet. At least 2
weeks prior to the fair, the rabbit(s) should be consuming 100% of the 16% protein feed. This year there will be a feed
choice for your rabbit. Please indicate on your entry form which feed your rabbits should be fed - (PU=Purina);
(BL=Blue Seal); (RO =Rowe)or (provide your own feed = OF). Please clearly mark your bag or bucket with your
name and feed type.
An attendant is available at all times to feed and care for the rabbits.
A. The health regulations of the Veterinary Division of the N.C. Department of Agriculture will be enforced.
They are:
1. All rabbits will be presented for examination before being placed in the show. The Show Veterinarian and/or the Show Superintendent will not accept rabbits infected with or showing any clinical symptoms
of infectious or communicable disease. Rabbits developing symptoms of infectious or communicable diseases during the show will be placed in isolation and shall not be removed for purpose of exhibiting.
2.Please use carriers or boxes to transport rabbits. Carriers or boxes used in transporting rabbits to the Fair will not be allowed to remain inside the exhibit building during the Fair. They may be brought into the building in order to place the rabbits on exhibition, and again to pick up the rabbits on Monday morning, October 24, 2016.
B. Any animal which does not display a good condition of health and vigor or is deemed unsuitable for public exhibition may be refused at check-in and for the purpose of judging will be considered “Not Shown” and entry fee forfeited.
No rabbit under 8 weeks of age will be allowed to be judged.
The Fair staff works diligently to protect and prevent diseased animals from entering the fairgrounds, though
owners should consider that animals may be exposed to infectious agents while at the Fair. It is a best management
practice to keep animals returning from the Fair separate from your animals at home for 2-3 weeks. By isolating
exhibited animals for this time you have the opportunity to see if they were exposed to disease and infected while
at the Fair.
CLASS 101
As indicated by the premium list, juniors (under six months), intermediates(6-8 months) and seniors (over 8 months)
will be judged by sex, in each breed of the individual classes, except in the small breeds in which the American Rabbit
Breeders Association does not recognize an intermediate class. In these smaller breeds, the judging will be of juniors
(under six months) and seniors (6 months and older). In addition, there will be competition for pre-juniors (under 3
months of age) in the following breeds: Beveren, Californian, Champagne, Checkered Giant, American Chinchilla,
Giant Chinchilla, Cinnamon, Creme d’Argent, Flemish Giant, Hotot, New Zealand, Palomino, Satin, and Silver Fox.

Assistance and encouragement may not involve yelling loudly or any other method that would subject a rabbit to excessive stress. Touching your rabbit with your feet is not permitted.
10.Judges are entitled to disqualify any rabbit who must be repeatedly lifted over jumps, or entirely refuses to move, as being clearly unwilling to jump.
11.Animal handlers may choose to scratch any round in which their rabbits decline to jump, which constitutes voluntary disqualification. No refund will be given for scratches.
12.Animal handlers must always embody good sportsmanship. Violations will result in warnings and disqualification. It is up to the judge’s discretion as to what constitutes poor sportsmanship. The judge’s decision is final.
13.Only H style harnesses will be allowed!
14.Leashes must be between 4 and 6 feet long depending on the size of the competitor and be made of the same type of material as the harness. Elastic or retractable leashes are not allowed for safety reasons.

16.Rabbits must wear harnesses and leashes at all times when on the hopping course.

RABBIT HOPPING COMPETITION
201
4. Beginning and ending jumps must always be present, and are not taken into account on scoring (no faults will be given for displacing rails on these jumps).
5. The jumps must be hopped in the correct order, otherwise a “wrong way” judgment shall be declared, and the rabbit will be disqualified. In order for a “wrong way” to be declared, a rabbit must have jumped an obstacle and all four feet must touch the ground. The start obstacle prior to the beginning of the course does not count in the wrong way judgment.
6. The final obstacle must be cleared in the right direction for the clock to stop. Once the rabbit has touched all four feet on the ground after clearing the final obstacle the clock is stopped, and the course is considered complete.
7. No treats (for you or your rabbit) will be allowed on the hopping course.
Faults will constitute any of the following:
1. Upsetting an obstacle, or any part of an obstacle. One fault shall be issued for the upset, regardless of how many rails were upset.
2. Lopsided jump: to clear an obstacle the rabbit must jump with its body between the obstacle supports. A lopsided jump fault will be called if the rabbit jumps outside of the obstacle supports.
3. Lifting over undisturbed obstacle. A rabbit may be lifted over or around an obstacle, but one fault per obstacle will be issued.
4. False starts: a false start is issued when the rabbit starts the course before the judge has indicated to the animal handler that they are ready to go. One fault will be issued, and repeated false starts will result in disqualification.
5. Out of bounds: if a rabbit goes more than 5 foot off the course it shall be considered an out of bounds fault. One fault shall be given for each out of bounds instance in a course,
Hopping
All rabbits entered in hopping will start on the Easy Course, and qualifying rabbits will proceed to Advanced Course. All
courses will be straight lined courses.
Easy Course: 8 obstacles, not including the start and finish jump. Minimum height 6”, maximum height 10”.
Advanced Course: 8 obstacles, not to include start and finish jump. Minimum height 10”, maximum height 14”. There
will be double and possibly triple jumps on the advanced course.
Placings for Hopping
Placings for hopping shall be as follows; each rabbit will be placed in a class based on the number of faults received. In
the event of a tie, the rabbit with the faster time is placed higher. Each fault will have a 2 second penalty.
Each exhibitor will make 3 runs at the course. All 3 runs are recorded on the score sheet. Advancement to the next class
will only be issued to rabbits with at least 1 clear (no faults) runs, and the third run cannot have more than 4 faults. The
winner shall be indicated by the rabbit with the least number of faults in each class. In the event of all rabbits having at
least one fault the 2 second fault time will be added and the fastest time based on the fault times will be the winner. In
the event of a tie, the rabbit with the least amount of time shall be declared the winner, and in a fault and time tie, there
shall be a run-off to determine the winner. There will be one class in the Easy course and one class in the Advanced
course. Ribbons will be award for 1st to 4th place in each class. The decision of the judges is final.

HUSBANDRY and HEALTH REGULATIONS
The coops are equipped with an open water container. IF YOUR CAVIES ARE NOT ACCUSTOMED TO OPEN
CONTAINERS–PLEASE BRING A CLEAN WATER BOTTLE FOR EACH CAVY. Cavy exhibitors must provide their
own feed for the cavies. Feed cups will be on each cage. Please provide your own cavy feed, mark your feed with
your name and phone number.
An attendant is available at all times to feed and care for the cavies.
A. The health regulations of the Veterinary Division of the N.C. Department of Agriculture will be enforced.
They are:
1. All rabbits/cavies will be presented for examination before being placed in the show. The Show Veterinarian and/or the Show Superintendent will not accept rabbits infected with or showing any clinical symptoms of infectious or communicable disease. Cavies developing symptoms of infectious or communicable diseases during the show will be placed in isolation and shall not be removed for purpose of exhibiting.
2. Carriers or boxes used in transporting cavies to the Fair will not be allowed to remain inside the exhibit building during the Fair. They may be brought into the building in order to place the cavies on exhibition, and again to pick up the cavies on Sunday night, October 23, 2016 at 8:00 p.m...

No cavy under 8 weeks of age will be allowed to be judged.
The Fair staff works diligently to protect and prevent diseased animals from entering the fairgrounds, though
owners should consider that animals may be exposed to infectious agents while at the Fair. It is a best management
practice to keep animals returning from the Fair separate from your animals at home for 2-3 weeks. By isolating
exhibited animals for this time you have the opportunity to see if they were exposed to disease and infected while
at the Fair.
