Welcome to the Yakima Valley Fair & Rodeo
Our ​mission​ is ​education​ through:
Advancement of all participants
Promotion of community spirit
Discovery of individual worth and potential
Letter to Exhibitors Welcome exhibitors, families, friends and fairgoers! We continue to work on various projects throughout the fair, including
work on the land north of the fairgrounds, so that we can use this property to it’s full potential in the future. We continually
update and repair the buildings and grounds so that exhibitor use is maximized and that we provide the community a great
experience. New volunteers and individuals interested in serving on committees or helping with specific projects are always
needed. If this is something that interests you, let a board member know! We appreciate all of our wonderful volunteers and
exhibitors who put in extra time and effort to ensure a great fair and beautiful fair grounds. Thank you for your support. We
hope you enjoy our 90th Yakima Valley Fair & Rodeo.

Helpful Hints & Rules:
1. Fruit is generally judged according to size, quality, color, uniformity and trueness to variety type.
2. Fruit will be judged according to maturity at fair time, need not be completely ripened.
3. The best size to select is not the largest nor the smallest, but one which most properly represents the variety in market demand.
4. Quality should be of the highest. Fruits should be free of any bruises, blemishes, broken skin and generally should retain their stems.
5. Color should be characteristic of the variety. It may be brightened with a soft cloth, except prunes, plums and grapes should never be polished. It is best to leave the natural bloom. No oil or wax
should be used to polish fruit.
6. Size and shape should be as uniform as possible, and without any irregularities.
7. Exhibits may be entered in trays or plates, both of which will be supplied by the fair. A tray is the equivalent of one tier of fruit in a standard box of packed fruit. Plates shall hold five unless
otherwise indicated.

Code of Conduct
a.
b.
c.
d.
e.
I believe that my participation in the 4-H and FFA Program should demonstrate my own ability, knowledge, and skill in feeding and preparing my livestock project for show. I
will do my own work and accept only advice and support from others. I understand that I may be expelled from the show if a leader or parent fits or shows my animal.
I will not use abusive or questionable techniques in the feeding, fitting and showing of my animals. I will not use fraudulent, illegal or deceptive practices when fitting them for
show. I also will not allow my parent, my supervisor, or any other person to employ such practice to my animal.
I will read and understand the rules of the Yakima Valley Fair & Rodeo in which I am a participant. I will not allow my parents and the supervisor of my project animal to break
the rules or make exception on my behalf. I wish to be an example of how to accept what life has to offer – good and bad – and how to live with the outcome of exhibiting my
livestock project.
I accept responsibility for:
`
The proper care and treatment of my animals.
The production of wholesome food.
The development of sound ethical behavior in myself and others.
I will not use profanity in the livestock area.

Failure of an exhibitor to comply with the rules of conduct shall result in forfeit of all premium money and/or removal of exhibitor and their stock from the show grounds.
