2012 Carroll County 4-H
FFA Fair will be held
July 28th – August 3rd
2012 Carroll County
Fair Theme!!
“Our Kids, Our Fair,
Our Future!”
This month I begin my series of articles
highlighting new classes or class changes
for Indoor Depts. at the 2012 County Fair.
Now is the time to use indoor time to work
on craft projects or other department’s
projects that can be made and set aside for
the fair. Public schools will be closed for a
long spring break. Why not use some of
that time to work on projects to enter in the
fair? By not waiting until school is out to
start your projects you have more time, will
not be rushed, probably have a neater
project and be able to complete more
projects to give us more entries for our
public to view.
We will start with the Crafts Dept. We
have a new duct tape class, which is any
item constructed from duct tape. There will
be 3 jewelry classes. They are 1. Jewelry
made from fiber (ex. Friendship bracelet) 2.
Jewelry-traditional, (beads, wire, charms,
etc) single piece and 3. Jewelry settraditional. A nature craft can be a wreath
or a centerpiece. There will not be a stamp
art class of different designs.
There is a new class in the Clovers
Dept. It will be photography. Each clover
can enter one photograph.
There are no new classes in the
General Dept. but classes have been
combined. There is no longer a separate
class for posters and displays. Instead the
class now is listed as poster OR display.
A department that has declined in
entries is the Mechanical Arts. We usually
think of restored farm machinery or
antiques for this dept. There are also
classes for restored residential equipment,
modified equipment or fabricated. If you
have any questions about entries for this
dept. now is the time to contact the supt.
(Gary Seibel) at 410 635-6930 or
gseibel@umd.edu.
Once again I would encourage 4H’ers to enter their school writing projects
in the Writing Dept. 4-H’ers can see how
their writing compares to others, receive
premium money and give the public the
opportunity to read their entries.
Next month I will be covering Garden
products, Informal Demonstrations and
Home Environment.
Any questions please contact me.

pass Jumping Levels 1 & 2 to show in the
Short Stirrup and Long Stirrup jumping

per the Horse and Pony Rule Book:

NARRATION: Write a three minute script limited to one side of an 8 ½” x
11” sheet of paper, double spaced. Please attach your narration. Remember that it’s much
easier to model your garment on stage while the narrator has interesting things to say!!! Do a good job
of describing your garment and your work creating the garment. You may also add what clubs you are
enrolled in and the 4-H projects you carry. For example, "Sally made a red dress with white polkadots"
we can see that, it should say, “Sally chose this fabric because she loves the color" the narration tells us
about the person, what they learned, and what they do in and outside of 4-H. This will be read during
the 2011 CC 4-H Fashion Show. (You may submit the script used in your county/city Fashion Revue
electronically.) You may send with this form or email to: Shannon Haines at CC4HFR@yahoo.com. Due
4/27/2012.
Photograph Attach a COLOR full-length photograph of you wearing the outfit and
accessories you will model at Fashion Revue. The photo must be at least 3” x 5” in size and

to Public Records Act and/or applicable University policy. The purpose of these materials is to enroll all market and commercial animals with the 4-H Tagging Program and to ensure members will receive all materials. By not providing
all requested materials, one may not receive all associated materials associated with the project, as well, as not being able to participate in shows in which animals must be tagged with the Maryland 4-H Livestock tag.

University of Maryland Extension (UME) 4-H Code of Animal Science Ethics
4-H members enrolled in animal science projects (e.g., beef, camelids, dairy, dog, goat, horse, poultry, rabbit, sheep, small pet, and swine) shall, at all times, conduct themselves with honesty and good sportsmanship,
including while with their projects and at all 4-H animal science activities and events. Their conduct should always reflect the highest standards of honor and dignity to promote the advancement of 4-H and its animal science program. 4H members, as well as parents, UME volunteers and others working with them, are under an affirmative responsibility to do more than avoid improper conduct or questionable acts; and their conduct and values must serve as a positive
influence on others.
This Code of Ethics applies to all 4-H members who are enrolled in animal science projects, and to others (4-Hers, parents, volunteers, owners, etc.) who participate in the animal science program; and it covers daily animal
care, as well as participation in competition and other 4-H animal activities and events.
4-H members and others who violate this Code of Ethics demean the integrity of 4-H and its animal science program. 4-H members who violate the code of animal science ethics are subject to sanctions including, but not
limited to, forfeiture of premiums, awards, and/or auction proceeds and may be prohibited from participation in 4-H or 4-H/UME events or activities; other violators may also be subject to sanction, as appropriate. Infractions may be
reviewed by 4-H and/or UME (on the local or state level, as appropriate to the infraction and to the event and/or activity in question), and/or may be subject to a fair oversight committee or other entity that oversees an activity or event. In
addition, some acts may also be subject to review based upon the 4-H Behavioral Expectations (4-H 418) and/or other UME policies.
The following is a list of standards and requirements for all 4-H animal science projects, at all times, whether at home, at animal exhibitions or events, or any other 4-H event or activity.
1. The care of all 4-H project animals is the responsibility of the 4-H member. 4-H members must properly care for and groom their animals for the duration of their project.
2. All project animals are expected to be housed at the 4-H member’s residence unless a different location is submitted to and approved in writing by the local 4-H staff. Any change in location must be approved in writing by the local 4H staff; however, it is not necessary to report direct transport to and from shows or other events.
3. Upon request of 4-H, UME, or other program, fair, event or animal officials, 4-H members must present proof of ownership, length of ownership, identity and/or age of all 4-H project animals owned or leased. Misrepresentation of
ownership, age, or identity of animal, or any facts relating thereto is prohibited. If a 4-H project animal is sold in a livestock sale, it is no longer eligible to be shown in a 4-H event in Maryland in that year.
4. 4-H members must provide appropriate animal health certificates upon request of 4-H, UME, or other program, fair, event or animal officials.
5. 4-H project animals must be presented to competition, activities and/or events, where they will enter the food chain, free of volatile drug residues. Animals which are presented to competition, events and/or activities that do not
culminate with the animal entering the food chain, shall not be administered drugs other than in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations and rules. 4-H project animals shall not be exhibited if drugs
administered in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations and rules may affect the animal’s performance or appearance at the event. At any time after an animal arrives on a fair or other 4-H activity or event premises, a
licensed veterinarian must administer or, in consultation with fair, event, UME, or 4-H officials, direct the administration of any treatments involving the use of drugs and/or medications.
6. The act of enrolling in a 4-H animal science project, and/or entering a project animal in a 4-H competition, show, activity, or other event, gives consent for 4-H or UME or event authorities to obtain any specimens of urine, saliva,
blood, hair, tissue, or other substance from the animal to be used for testing purposes including, but not limited to, drugs or identification. 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 4-H owner to prove otherwise at
any review in regard to the matter conducted by a fair or other event or the 4-H program. If the laboratory report on the chemical analysis of saliva, urine, blood, hair, tissue or other sample, taken from a 4-H animal science project,
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.
7. Any surgical procedure or injection of any foreign substance or drug or the external application of any substance (irritant, counter irritant, or similar substance) which could affect the animal's performance or alter its natural contour,
conformation, 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.
8. Using ice, ice packs, cold packs, or cold compresses, internally or externally, other than those prescribed to relieve heat stress or a medical condition as diagnosed by a duly licensed veterinarian for the sole purpose of protecting the
health of the animal, is prohibited.
9. The use of showing and/or handling practices or devices, such as striking animals to cause swelling, using electrical devices, or other similar practices, are not acceptable and are prohibited.
10. All judges, fair and event officials and/or UME/4-H staff and volunteers shall be treated with courtesy, cooperation, and respect, and no person shall direct abusive or threatening conduct toward them or toward exhibitors or others
participating in the activity. In addition, direct criticism or interference with a judge, fair, show or event official, exhibitor, breed representative, or UME/4-H staff or volunteer before, during, or after an event or other activity is
prohibited.
11. No one shall violate this Code of Animal Science Ethics or 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.
12. The application of this Code of Ethics provides for absolute responsibility for an animal's condition to the 4-H member 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.
13. By enrolling in an animal science project and/or entering an animal in a fair or other 4-H event or activity, the 4-H member, and his/her parent or guardian, consent to have disciplinary action taken by appropriate authorities
(including UME, 4-H, fair, event and/or other activity officials) for violation of this Code of Animal Science Ethics and/or any other applicable rules of UME, 4-H, a fair, activity or other event, without recourse against UME, 4-H and/or
other authorities. In addition, the 4-H member, and his/her parent or guardian, further understand and agree that any action which contravenes these rules, and is also in violation of federal, state, or local laws, statutes, regulations, or
rules, may be released to appropriate law enforcement authorities with jurisdiction over such infractions.
Note: By signing this form the 4-H member, and his/her parent or guardian, each verify that he or she has read and understands the UME 4-H Code of Animal Science Ethics and the consequences of and penalties provided for
violations of the Code.
