Welcome! A Message from the President and CEO Welcome to all 4-H BC leaders, members and their projects who will be in at-tendance at the 2017 Pacific National Exhibition 4-H Festival as well as our Fair’s celebration of Canada’s 150th Birthday! We are proud to be hosting the RCMP Musical Ride on our opening weekend as a part of our celebration of Canada. To have 4-H and the musical ride open our 107th Fair is a true honor and we are excited to see it all unfold.

We take pride in showcasing some of BC’s best 4-H competitors during our 5 day Festival and it is annually some of the busiest, most lively and most enter-taining days we see over the course of our Fair. The Agriculture displays contin-ue to remain at the forefront of our Fair and we are proud to provide a high quali-ty competition for 4-H BC clubs and to showcase your exceptional 4-H talent to our urban audience. With an ever growing demand for education on where food comes from, it is important to us to use our platform to showcase the importance of supporting local food production and agri-businesses. The 4-H Festival is, by far, the most dynamic way to do this. With the barns filled with young people competing not only in their project shows, but also demonstrations, educational displays, speak and shows and the judging rally, there is no better example of why it is important to support BC Agriculture.

We once again thank the BC Youth in Agriculture Foundation for their continued sponsorship of travel assistance and cash prizes for the judging rally at the 4-H Festival. To further assist the BC Youth in Agriculture Foundation in delivering great programs like this, the PNE continues to support the foundation through our annual PNE Charity Agriculture Auction held each Fair.

Following the 4-H Festival this year, the Agrodome venue will play host to the Pacific Spirit Horse Show which continues to entertain the public with a variety of disciplines. Another important aspect of our Agriculture program, the Farm Country exhibit, will see the continuation of our popular Kids Discovery Farm that has seen great success since its debut. In addition, exciting exhibits such as the Farmyard, Milking demonstrations and Honeybee store will once again return along with our Urban Agriculture exhibit to teach those living in the city how they can be a part of the local food growing experience.

I would like to thank you, the 4-H leaders, members and parents for your contin-ued support of the Agriculture program here at the PNE and wish you all the best of luck as you endeavor to achieve your goals here at our show!

Enjoy the Fair!

Mike McDaniel

A Message from your Committee Chair The 2017 PME 4-H Festival has arrived and we are pleased to see you all here. Each year brings new faces and different competitions as we adjust to what the 4-H program has to offer and what you as members wish to take on as your pro-ject. This year will also see adjustment in our program as we join in celebration of Canada’s 150 Birthday. To help us celebrate we are pleased to welcome the RCMP Musical Ride. In order to enjoy the celebration and accommodate all the competitions, there have been a few adjustments to the program. I am confident that as usual 4-H members can adjust and still display their best. Have a great show and provide the public with a great display as to what agriculture and 4-H is all about.

responsible for any loss, damage or injury to any animal exhibited or any article of any kind. All animals shall be under the control and direction of the PNE Management, but solely at the risk of the participant, who will be responsible for any loss, damage, or injury to any person, animal, or property occasioned by the participant, their agents, employees, or by any animal owned or exhibited by the participant and shall indemnify the PNE against any and all loss, damages, and liability thus occasioned, including but not limited to, any and all legal costs in-cluding attorney fees which may be incurred as a result thereof.

• No Drugs Possession and/or use of illegal drugs or inhalants are forbidden. This is a criminal offence and will be handled accordingly. • No Disruptive Behavior Behavior which disrupts the effectiveness of the program including vandalism, verbal or physical assaults or aggression, breaking curfew

and/or leaving the premises or activity without permission (from parent or leader) will not be tolerated.

Members found violating these rules may be asked to leave the grounds imme-diately and will be subject to a discipline review by the PNE 4-H Committee along with PNE Management. The consequences of breaking PNE rules in-cludes but is not limited to; disqualification from events and registered competi-tions at the PNE, forfeiture of any previously won prizes, money or titles and / or the member and his/her projects may not be permitted to return to 4-H Festival events. Any attempt to interfere with PNE staff, contractors or their agents while in the performance of their duties shall constitute a violation of the rules. Participants may not use any device or conduct themselves in a manner which may cause harm to any other person(s), animals, or property.

Parents:

Although, 4-H BC and the PNE do not condone leaders or families consuming alcohol during a 4-H activity, it is recognized that the PNE offers opportunities for casual alcohol consumption in licenced areas of the grounds. Leaders and families are reminded that they are the face of 4-H that the general public sees and that they represent 4-H as much as a member does. There is no drinking allowed in the barns.

Barns: When moving animals through the barns participants must use designated aisles. All other aisles are out of bounds at all times.

Animals may only be ridden in designated areas. Grooming or clipping will not be permitted in the aisles.

Attire: All 4-H competitors and supervising leaders registered with the 4-H Show are expected to appear in suitable dress at all times. It is the tradition of the Show Ring that a competitor be correctly attired for the class in question and that attendants be neatly dressed and animals properly presented.

5. Animal Treatment Abuse:

Any form of abuse (including excessive use of the whip or spurs or excessive use of the bit) on any animal in a stall, runway, schooling area, competition ring, or elsewhere on the PNE grounds at any time, by any person, consti-tutes a violation of the rules and renders the offender subject to penalty, dis-qualification, and possible prosecution. This will be strictly enforced.

Drugs and Medications: No animal is to be shown in any class if it has been administered, in any man-ner, any forbidden substance. Animals in competition may be subject to test-ing and/or examination by a licensed veterinarian and/or technician. The examination may include physical, saliva, urine, blood tests, or any other test or procedure at the discretion of said veterinarian and/or technician. Failure to submit to such tests and examinations may result in disqualification and constitutes a violation of the rules.

Tampering: Any animal artificially, improperly, or unfairly prepared, doctored, or tampered with in any way before entering the show ring will be disqualified.

Animal Identification Tags: All Beef, Dairy, Goat, Sheep and Swine animals participating at the PNE must have proper CFIA approved tags in place. Any tag lost must be registered through your district secretary with confirmation of this sent to the PNE prior to arrival onsite.

6. Signs and Displays The 4-H Committee wishes to encourage the proper use of the 4-H emblem in all signs as specified by the Canadian Council of 4-H Clubs. Points will be deducted in the herdsmanship competition for the improper use of the 4-H emblem.

7. Emergency Procedures The club leader (or chaperone) is responsible for ensuring that all 4-H participants are aware of the emergency procedures of the PNE including evacuation and medical emergency procedures. These procedures are included in your exhibitor package, which you will receive during check-in at the 4-H Show Office.

Competition Rules

1. General Competitions are governed by the 4-H B.C. Project Rules and Regulations, the General Rules, Entry Rules, the Competition Rules below, and any additional guidelines for individual classes listed in the class list. It is vital, therefore, that each exhibitor is familiar with all of these sections of the prize book as well as the rules and regulations of 4-H (can be obtained from 4-H B.C. office). PNE Management reserves the right to change the location of competitions as deemed necessary and also reserves the right to substitute a judge or official (or other staff) for any listed in the prize book.

2. Warm-Up

Agrodome: Available exercise times in the Agrodome are posted in all published 4-H schedules

Corral: Warm-up in the Corral (lower ring) will be made available as competition and event schedule permits. Times will be posted in all published 4-H schedules.

3. Competition Only persons directly involved in the showing and judging of animals will be al-lowed in the ring. The PNE and its judges and officials reserve the right to pro-hibit any person(s) from entering the ring or from riding or driving. Interfering with judges, officials, or other staff while in the performance of their duties will result in disqualification. Order of entry into the ring may be predetermined by the PNE as management deems necessary.

In Gate: Participants are responsible for having all entries ready to enter the ring promptly when called. Any participant refusing to enter the ring when directed forfeits the right to compete. Judging: All 4-H classes listed in the PNE prize list will be placed on the Danish system unless otherwise indicated. Members must exhibit their own 4-H project animals in showmanship classes, and members must show in showmanship in order for the project to be shown in their project class. All members in market classes are required to show in the showmanship class of each project in order to be eligible to sell at the 4-H auction. Any clipping or grooming of 4-H project animals must be done only by 4-H members competing with a project at the PNE Fair, or that project and member may be disqualified from competing.

4. Prizes and Awards

Trophies and Special Awards: Perpetual and challenge trophies remain at the PNE all year. During the 4-H show they will be available through the Entry Office. Where possible, trophies will be presented after the appropriate class then returned to the 4-H Show Office.

Prize Money: Prize monies will be paid out, in Canadian Funds, to the names listed on the entry form. Cheques for prize money won by members of clubs will be sent as soon as possible, after the close of the exhibition to leaders for distribution to the members. All inquiries with respect to prize payments must be made be-fore March 31st, 2018, after which accounts will be closed, uncashed cheques will be voided, and no further action by the exhibitor may be taken.

Should a participant(s) be disqualified, prizes will be re-allocated to the remaining placing exhibitors.

5. Exhibitions and Demonstrations All exhibitions and demonstrations will be placed between classes at the discretion of the PNE 4-H Committee and the PNE Management.

6. Protests Any protest must be submitted in writing, signed, and accompanied by a deposit of $100 which shall be forfeited if the protest is not sustained. The protest must state fully the cause of the complaint and must be delivered to the Show Office by 10:00am the day following the cause of the protest. A protest will be considered official when the written protest has been received by the Show Office and a receipt has been issued to the complainant. An official protest will be investigated by the PNE Management and appropriate Committee Chair. All decisions by this panel are final.

7. Auction Sale All market calves, lambs, hogs, goats and rabbits to be sold must have previously shown in the PNE 4-H show. Members entering a project into a carcass class (Unit 5: Carcass Steer; Unit 8: Carcass Lamb, or Unit 4: Carcass Hog Class) must be registered in showmanship with another animal within the same project classifica-tion in order for their carcass project to be entered in the carcass class and be eligi-ble for the sale (ie. A member registered in Market Steer Carcass must show a beef project in showmanship at the PNE 4-H show). The sale will be conducted on a price per pound basis.

Auction invitations are mailed to buyers who purchased in the previous year (2016) of the 4-H Auction Sale. New buyers must be registered by July 31st, 2017.

Any member wanting to show their animal and not sell it must state so on the entry form. If the animal is Champion or Reserve, it MUST sell at the PNE 4-H Auction

A commission of 5.2% will be taken on all animals sold.

Animals will be the property of the buyer upon completion of the sale. Normal care will be the responsibility of the contributor while the animals are still at the PNE. Animals will be delivered to a packing plant, in the greater Vancouver area as re-quested on the sales form, as soon after the sale as possible at no charge to the purchaser. The purchaser is responsible for all costs incurred.

Leased Animals: No leased or partnership market animals are permitted. Any market animal regis-tered for the show must be solely owned by the 4-H Exhibitor and proof of owner-ship may be required.

Self Hauling: If a member choses to haul their animal to the packing plant themselves, all costs and liabilities are the responsibility of the self-hauler after the auction. All members Self-Hauling animals sold at auction must sign a Liability Contract before loading and leaving the grounds with the animal.

Proxy Bidding: All buyers must be pre-registered with the auction staff prior to bidding. All buyers using a proxy bidder must complete the Proxy Bidder Registration form.

Payments: Payment must be made at the time of the purchase. If full payment is not possible, credit arrangements must be made at registration time. Terms are cash or cheque in Canadian Funds or by credit card (VISA, MC). Persons buying their own animal back must purchase the animal at full sale price.

Dorm & RV Parking Rules

1. Dormitories and Supervision Limited accommodation will be available to 4-H members and chaperones in the 4-H dormitory located onsite at the PNE. Leaders must use discretion when choosing members to stay in this dormitory situation. Leaders are required to take responsibility for 4-H members attending PNE, and 4-H members are re-sponsible for their own actions.

The PNE provides sleeping space only. Bring a foam mattress or bedroll and sleeping bag.

Members participating in the 4-H Program must be chaperoned in the dorms and the R.V. parking regardless of age. A 4-H member may not be a chaperone. Chaperones must be 21 years of age or older and have a recent valid Police Check. Dorm space is made available to adult leaders and parents who have accepted the following responsibilities for chaperoning 4-H members in co-operation with the dormitory supervisors. District and/or club chaperones will have space available with their district or club members they are chaperones for. Chaperones must be familiar with 4-H members from their area including any medical problems they may have. Upon arrival, chaperones must check-in with dormitory supervisors. By curfew, chaperones must verify that members are in the dorms and meeting all assigned rules. Any chaperones not meeting the above responsibilities will be required to leave. No smoking in the 4-H dormitory or any livestock area.

2. Curfews Curfew in the dorms and for the RV Parking will be 11:00 PM. This means that all 4-H members staying at the PNE grounds are to be inside the dorms and inside the enclosed RV parking area by 11:00 PM sharp, with the exception of Monday when the curfew will be 12:00 AM to allow for the dance. The barns will be closed to the general public at 10:00 PM nightly and closed to all individuals with wristbands at 10:45 PM. There will be absolutely no entry into the barns after closing with the exception of staff on duty.

3. Dorm Sign In & Out A strict sign-in and sign-out procedure will be implemented. The PNE-dorm su-pervisor will have a master list of all 4-H members staying in the dorms, for sign-in and sign-out privileges. 4-H Chaperones will perform a final check and sign in of the members they are responsible for by 11:00 PM nightly (12:00 AM on Mon-day).

PNE Chaperones will be responsible for enforcing rules regarding entry and exit of dorms and the sign in sheets. They will inform the entry office of any infrac-tions of the rules. The sign-out cut off time will be 10:45 PM, with no exceptions. 4-H members will not be able to sign themselves out after that time. Club chaper-ones will be expected to assist Dorm Supervisors with the monitoring of 4-H mem-bers.

4. Off Site Visits 4-H Leaders must notify the PNE Dorm Chaperone when one of their club mem-bers (who is registered in the Dorms) is going off site with relatives or friends, and should again advise the PNE Dorm Chaperone when they have returned. This will assist with the monitoring of 4-H member’s whereabouts. This is especially important for emergency situations.

Wristbands will only be replaced if a damaged wristband is presented to the entry office in exchange for a new one.

4-H Rabbits Section 1. One entry per class per member. Members are encouraged to enter

their unit 1, 2 and 3 project animals.

3. No tattooing after the rabbits arrives. All tattoos should be properly dried and all excess ink should have disappeared.

4. Rabbits may only be shown in the class that corresponds to the unit they are registered in.

5. Breeds listed in each category are the preferred recommended sec-tion.

6. Any class changes should be submitted at check-in.

7. All feed and water containers must be supplied by the 4-H member.

Leaders please note that rabbit exhibitors must bring their own penning. See acceptable recommended sizes following. Please list number of feet of table space required for your club.

Pen and Size Description:

The proper pen designed for a rabbit should be made of an inedible material such as metal and have a double wire partition. The double wire partition prevents rabbits from biting and clawing one another. For this reason, poul-try cages should not be used to house the rabbits because they have a sin-gle wire partition that offers little protection. There are three types of pens designed for different size animals according to weight. For animals that weigh a maximum of 2.72 kg (6 lbs), a small pen 38 com x 41 cm x 38 cm (15” x 16” x 15”) is used. For animals of a medium weight between 2.72 kg and 5.44 kg (6 lbs – 12 lbs), a pen size of 53 cm x 58 cm (21” x 23”) is rec-ommended. For larger animals weighing over 5.44 kg (12 lbs), a pen of 76 cm x 69 cm (30” x 27”) is required.
