Entries previously entered are not eligible. ONLY ONE EXHIBIT MAY BE ENTERED FOR EACH CLASS NUMBER. Due care will be exercised in handling each exhibit, but the Ag Society will not be responsible for articles lost, damaged or stolen. Fragile work and extremely large pieces should not be entered. No articles will be release before specified time. If you are unable to pick up your exhibits are the release time, it is your responsibility to find someone to do so.

Any items remaining after 1:00pm will be disposed of unless other arrangements are made.

Judging is merit-based. At judge’s discretion, not all placings will be awarded if exhibits do not merit placing. Ribbons may be awarded for 1st through 3rd place and all others will receive participant ribbons. Premium payouts are minimums and may increase based on sponsorship amounts.
