Dedication
Though Debbie only officially joined our board in 2014, she has been
very actively involved in creating and publishing our premium book for
sixteen years. In addition to laying out the book, she solicits adver-
tisers and collects the fees and coordinates mailing books to past
exhibitors. Two years ago, Debbie volunteered to assist with fair spon-
sorships as well by sending out forms and making certain sponsors are
properly recognized.
Debbie has also been a “VIP” in our competitive exhibits for many
years. She accepts pre-registration of entries and maintains all entry
records in a computer program for that purpose. On the day exhibitors
submit their entries, she is there with her equipment to make additions
and corrections to record and print display tags. Debbie ensures that
things go smoothly when items are brought in for judging, down to
making sure exhibitors’ premium checks are correct when items are
picked up at the end of the fair.

GUIDELINES FOR CARE OF ANIMALS
16
17
INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF
FAIRS & EXPOSITIONS
NATIONAL CODE OF SHOW RING ETHICS
18
The act of entering an animal in a livestock show is the giving of
consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer and/or absolutely respon-
sible 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 enter-
ing the food chain shall not be administered drugs other than in accor-
dance 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 chemical 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 approved 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
hearing in regard to the matter conducted by the fair or livestock show.
At any time after an animal arrives on the fair or livestock show
premises, all treatments involving the use of drugs and/or medications
shall be administered by a licensed veterinarian.
5. Any surgical procedure or injection of any foreign substance
or drug or the external application of any substance (irritant, counterirri-
tant, 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 procedure 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 threaten-
19
ing 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 vio-
late 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 contraven-
tion 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
any disciplinary action taken by the fair or livestock show against such
individuals published in any publication of the International Association
of Fairs and Expositions, including Fairs and Expositions and any special
notices to members.
11. The act of entering 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 National Code of
Show Ring Ethics and understands the consequences of any 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 fed-
eral, state, or provincial statutes, regulations, or rules may be released
to appropriate law enforcement authorities with jurisdiction over such
infractions.
12. Please sign the entry form to indicate your support of this
code of ethics. Each exhibitor, parent and leader is required to sign off
on this code of ethics.

providing contact information of owners of all animals which are exhib-
ited to the Department upon request.

amendments thereto–“exists with regard to any animals I will be exhib-
iting.” The name and phone number of the consulting veterinarian must
be included on the entry form. Animals entering with a Certificate of
Veterinary Inspection (CVI are exempt from this statement requirement.

animals discuss the health of their animals, including vaccine recom-
mendations, with a veterinarian on a regular basis. The Department

Dale was Livestock Superintendent for the Schnecksville Fair from its
