TYPES OF JUDGING
Danish Judging: This is the traditional system, in which all exhibits of the same division are presented simultaneously to the judge. The judge evaluates each exhibit but is permitted to give a maximum of 25% ribbons within each color in each division. This style is used primarily on the animal departments and open division entries.
Face-to-Face Judging: This form of judging allows more flexibility for judge and exhibitor. Youth bring their projects to the judge within the allotted time and talk to the judge about their exhibit. Based on the variables from the “face-to-face” discussion, the judge awards the ribbon and premium which he/she believes is appropriate. This style is used in junior division departments exhibited in the Ziegler Family Exposition Center.
Premium Listings: 1st Blue = Excellent 2nd Red = Very Good 3rd White = Good 4th Pink = Needs Improvement
JUDGING 1. Exhibits in any department must be worthy, in the estimations of the judge, to qualify for a prize. 2. Not more than one premium will be awarded any exhibitor upon any one prize number. 3. Any person residing in Washington County is eligible to enter Open Departments. Junior Department exhibitors must be a member of a recognized youth group. 4. Any exhibitor who shall attempt to interfere with deliberations or decisions of the judges will be excluded from competition in that division. 5. Any person making a false entry will forfeit premium. 6. All judging will be done by qualified judges registered with the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection. 7. The report of the judges must be made out and returned to the Manager’s Office at the completion of the Department Judging. 8. No person Except the Manager and Assistants will be allowed to examine the entry books until after the awards have been made. 9. All premiums, both regular and special, are the absolute property of the Washington County Ag & Industrial Society and will be paid as such. 10. All articles competing for premiums will be under the control of the Superintendent and must not be removed from the grounds until after the last say except by written permission of the Fair Manager. Failure to abide by this rule, exhibitor forfeits all premiums. 11. No articles shall compete for more than one premium unless as part of a collection, nor will premiums be awarded when articles are not worthy in the estimation of the judges, even though there will be no competition.

Animal Health Regulations for Fairs and Shows in Wisconsin: 2021 Season This is a summary of animal health requirements for fairs, shows and exhibitions only. They are not necessarily the same as requirements for importing animals into Wisconsin or moving them within the state for other purposes. They may change if animal diseases occur in Wisconsin or elsewhere, so you should always check our website or contact us for current information. Ref. s. ATCP 10.87, Wis. Admin. Code GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR SHOW ORGANIZERS All Fairs or Exhibitions of any length must obtain, review, and keep five years all required records and test results: • Exhibitor’s name and address • Animal identification (number, type, description, and, when required, official identification (see requirements for different animals below) • Documents showing compliance with disease testing and other health requirements. • Livestock premises numbers, if any, where animal originated • Documentation sowing legal importation to the event (if applicable) and, when required, movement to the event (see requirements for different animals below) • For swine, a record of any swine transported directly to a slaughtering establishment. • For Swine, a record of any swine transported to an animal market where all animals sold at the market sale for that day were whipped directly to a slaughtering establishment. • Fairs or Exhibitions lasting more than 24 hours must appoint a licensed veterinarian to inspect all animals daily. • Please Note: Except in specific circumstances, if an animal already bears an official 840 eartag, that eartag must not be removed and additional official eartags must not be applied. Instead, the existing eartag must be read and recorded when a record of that animal is required. (Ref. s.ATVP 10.054, Wis. Admin. Code) • These regulations apply to all fairs and exhibitions, including additional events (like redoes, shows, or other organized events) that occur in conjunction with the fair. DISEASES Animals that show evidence of having contagious or infectious diseases may not be commingled (or housed/kept) with other animals at the fair, show or other exhibition in such a way as to allow disease to spread. Such animals should not attend the fair, show, or exhibition. Animals may be denied entry if they arrive at these events with contagious or infectious diseases, isolated and/or removed if they develop disease after arriving or be subject to other actions as would be necessary to control disease. Bovine animals with ringworm, mange, warts or scab will be removed from the fair or exhibition premises, unless the veterinarian in charge finds wart or ringworm lesions are incapable of transmitting disease. CATTLE and BISON Cattle from within Wisconsin have no requirements for tests or health documents.

If a fair or livestock exhibition in this state lasts for more than 24 hours, the sponsors of the fair or exhibition shall appoint a licensed veterinarian to conduct a daily inspection of all livestock at the fair or exhibition. For a complete listing of the rule, please see the health requirements section of the fair book.

When the veterinarian comes to the fair, they will check with the Livestock Office to see if there are any concerns or animals to check. They will then walk through the livestock areas and observe animals for any concerns.
If you have an animal that you would like the veterinarian to check when they are on the grounds, please leave the in-livestock office. It will then be provided to the veterinarian on the next visit. The veterinarian will check your animal. However, if any treatment is administered you are responsible for the costs of the treatment.
If an animal needs immediate attention it is the responsibility of the exhibitor to contact their own veterinarian for any attention or treatment.
If you have any questions, please speak to the Superintendent of your department or someone at the Livestock Office. pg. 20
