| There are many rules to show large livestock at the Van Buren County Fair -- Registration, Livestock books/interviews, Ownership Tagging/Photos, Housing at the Fair, Showmanship, Small Animal Showmanship Sweepstakes, and Sale at Auction. While rules are posted in the previous year's Fair Book, those rules could have changed for the current year. You MUST consult your Young Explorers 4-H Leader in your species as soon as you register to determine the deadlines and rules applying to your species. |
| All small animal exhibitors must submit a fair pre-registration form by June 15. All small animal exhibitors must pay $10.00 per family. This money should be turned in with the pre-registration forms. The money goes to the SMAC Treasury for auction expenses, cages and supplies that are needed for fair week.(SAMPLE FORM) For more information, contact Denise Noble, Key Leader. |
| Goats must be in the exhibitors possession on or before May 1 of the current year, except for kids born to a doe owned by the exhibitor. |
