Frequently Asked Questions “Fair” is August 16-20, 2016. “Fair Week” as used in this Guide includes August 15-21, 2016 (Monday Through Sunday). When do I bring in my exhibit to the fairgrounds? This varies by department. Carefully read the provisions of departments in which you are entering. Departments are not all the same! Some exhibits are due at very specific times and dates, on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and/or Monday before fair starts and some not until Tuesday of fair week. The department superintendents are volunteers and work very hard to help you properly enter, display, and have your entry judged; please help them by following the department rules. Where do I get stall cards? Stall cards for Large Livestock and Horses are available only at the Livestock Office modular in Barn #27. If I have questions about my entry, who do I contact? Start with the department superintendent. Their name and phone number is in the department or section in which you wish to enter. You can also contact the fair office. Are there limits on the purchase of Camping and Inside Parking? Yes. Camping may be purchased only by a person 19 years of age or older. Each person purchasing camping in any of the campgrounds may purchase a maximum on ONE space, if available Inside Vehicle Parking can only be purchased by a person 16 years or older. Each person purchasing inside parking may purchase a maximum of one space, if available. When do I get my check(s)? Premium checks are mailed as soon as possible after all exhibitors points are entered into the system and calculated. Checks will be mailed to the address provided at the time of registration. Livestock checks are mailed as funds become available from the buyers. The checks are mailed by the Sale Committee, not the Fair Office. It may be up to two months before the money is available. For questions regarding livestock checks contact Mike Wallace at 509-785-6013. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Compliance Policy Grant County Fairgrounds fully support the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). We strive to ensure all programs, services and activities are reasonably accessible and usable by people with disabilities. We encourage those who would like accommodations under ADA to make contact, and arrangements if necessary, in advance to allow time for preparation and coordination. Sign Language Interpreter Services may be scheduled on your own at your own expense for all or part of the exhibit or program at the Fairgrounds through Eastern Washington Center for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing: hearing impaired call 800-833-6384 and a relay operator will help you or call Voice: 509-328-3728 or fax to 509-327-4622 or email:
[email protected] Or you may contact the Fairgrounds Office at 509-765-3581 no less than two (2) weeks before the fair to have your request incorporated with others for each year as the Fair purchases Interpreter Services based on requested services. Rates are set by Eastern Washington Center for Deaf and Hard of Hearing and are subject to change without notice.

Be sure you register as an exhibitor; you can register online through a link on our website. Or you can call or stop by the office and we can help you. You will need to register as a new exhibitor every year. An exhibitor must be a resident or owner of property in Grant County or that portion of Adams County receiving irrigation water under the Columbia Basin Project. Open exhibits from outside of the area are only by the invitation of the building superintendent. An exhibitor may make multiple entries in any class including “Other”. But be sure to check the particular Divisions for more details on the number of entries allowed. FFA and 4-H exhibits must be from current year’s projects. Exhibitor must be enrolled in the project unit, or phase in which participating. 4-H, FFA, or FHA members must carry and exhibit different projects or enterprises. See memorandum of agreement between FFA and 4-H youth. Consult the Extension Office or FFA advisors for enrollment questions. The Grant County Fair will not be responsible for any article or animal exhibited at the fair either during the progress of the fair or while it is in route to and from the fair, nor will it be held responsible for any damage to any exhibit or its owner; however, the fair will use reasonable care and caution to prevent loss or damage. All exhibits will be judged on merit, regardless of the number of entries in the class. The judge need not issue a ribbon or award to entries not up to standards. A judge may not enter any exhibits in the areas they are judging. The Grant County Fair uses a variety of judging systems depending on Division and activity. We use the Danish, Modified Group, Conference/Face-to-Face, and 1-2-3-4 systems. If there are questions on the particular judging method used in any given Division, please contact the Division superintendent. Superintendents of Divisions shall have authority over all matters within their respective Divisions. Protest of the superintendent’s decisions during the fair must be in writing and state plainly the cause for complaint or appeal. The protest shall be acted upon by the fair in due time. The Grant County Fair is responsible only for ribbons and premium awards; all specialty awards and cash prizes are the responsibility of the Division superintendent. In all divisions except animals, the Best of Section is selected from each section with a minimum of three blue ribbons. The Best of Show is selected from the Best of Section winners. Specific Division rules override this general rule. If for any reason such as war, weather, or other acts of God, the income for the current Grant County Fair is impaired, all prizes, premiums, and awards may be prorated. Exhibits may not be removed before 8am Sunday or exhibitor will forfeit premium money. All perishable items that become unsanitary or are not picked up by 2pm on Sunday will be thrown away. Premium checks as well as Livestock checks will be mailed upon completion of data entry and compilation. 4-H and FFA Market Stock Sale animals must be fed and watered prior to 8am Sunday. Animals sold at the Market Stock Sale will be held on the fairgrounds until picked up by transport to market or until Sunday morning after fair, and the seller will be responsible for the animal until it is moved to the load-out area. Take home animals will only be released to buyers of said market animals. The fair reserves the right to add or delete classes not shown in the exhibitor guide, when it is deemed necessary and in the best interest of the fair. Absolutely No Pets allowed in any area of the fairgrounds, including in any building, restrooms, exhibit areas, barns or the outside area of the Equestrian Park. Show animals must be on a leash or otherwise confined (as in a cage) at all times, including transit by the most direct route between campground or gate and the appropriate show area. Show animal owner is responsible for clean-up and proper disposal of their animals waste. At no time will they be allowed on the mid-way or in food service areas. Service animals must be on a leash or under direct control at all times. No “For Sale” or other commercial signs are allowed on any exhibit which is entered for competition. Exhibitors, parents, and leaders of exhibitors failing to comply with fair and show rules may, upon recommendation of superintendent or other authorized committee, be barred from future showing at the Grant County Fair.

Make bundles 2-4” in diameter just below the head and tie snugly in at least three places. Hang in a dry place with heads down. Sheaves can be secured with electrician’s tape. Judging will be on uniformity of heads and quality of shear preparation.

Exhibits will be accepted Monday of Fair week from 10am to 8pm. Rules: 1. Containers are provided for Floriculture Classes. Specimens should be named, if possible (ex. Rose, Hybrid Tea, “Peace”). When more than one kind and/or color is in a class, the stems should be the same length and the flowers, as nearly as possible, the same size and the same stage of maturity. 2. If schedule calls for one stem or three stems, for example, enter the flower as it grows, including blooms and buds, but enter one stem only or three stems, as shown in the schedule. Judges adhere strictly to the schedule. 3. Flowers should be hardened by putting in warm water as soon as cut; let stay for several hours or overnight. Late afternoon or early morning is the best time to cut. Keep the foliage out of the water; this tends to make the flowers wilt quickly. 4. Only one entry may be made in a class except where class numbers are subdivided, and then an entry may be made in each subdivision and from each color or variety. 5. Many varieties of annuals and perennials bloom during late summer. Any annual, any perennial, and any flowering shrub are welcome. Although annuals are placed in Class 2, perennials in class 3, and flowering shrubs in class 4, each specimen will be judged with others of its kind. This ruling applies to those specific species not listed in Classes 6 – 30. 6. Always leave foliage (at least two leaves) on all flower entries if leaves occur naturally on the stem. Exceptions to this rule are listed separately. 7. If a class calls for a spray, there must be two to five blooms open and/or showing color. 8. All specimens must be grown by the exhibitor. 9. It is advised that anyone bringing numerous entries should fill out entry forms ahead of time. Forms may be obtained from the fair office. 10. Superintendent reserves the right to remove from display, at any time, any exhibit or part thereof which is not up to show quality. Exhibitors are encouraged to replace any wilted blooms during the fair.
