HORSE SHOW POLICES AND GUIDELINES
General Rules:
1. Record Books are due and must be placed in the Extension
Office no later than 5:00 p.m. Friday, July 21, one week
before fair. See records book section for criteria.
2. 4-H/FFA members may only show those horses they
declared May 1, as being their Baker County 4-H Horse
projects. Members may use more than one horse for
overall high point. The horses must be declared on May
1. Between May 1 and June 1, hardship cases involving
illness, injury and safety must be made known to the Horse
Advisory committee in writing. The committee may decide
that a different horse than the one originally declared may
be shown at the fair, but the member and horse will not
be considered for any champion ribbons and will not be
considered as a delegate to the State Fair.
3. 4-H/FFA members leasing horses must have turned in a
business-like agreement signed by them and the owner of
the horse to the Extension Office by May 1. Members are
to have done as much work as possible with the animal
including: feeding, arranging for vet, farrier work, training,
grooming, etc. However, circumstances beyond the mem-
ber’s control such as a prohibitive distance, will be given
consideration. During the Horse Show the horse will be the
member’s full responsibility. A copy of the lease agreement
is to be included with the 4-H/FFA records.
4. 4-H/FFA members are to do as much training and prepa-
ration for the Show as possible. A leader or parent may
assist in cases when the member’s safety is at risk and
with younger and/or inexperienced 4-H’ers. This includes

clipping, bathing, tacking, saddling, grooming of feet. This
is not to mean that the leader or parent may do it for the
member, but rather may provide advice, assistance, etc.
State Fair delegates will be chosen by combining Show-
manship and Western or English Equitation scores, which
must be a minimum of 170 points, with a score of 80 points
or above in each class. Contestants must use the same horse
in all events for Ground Training, driving classes, and
Gaming. In addition, in every event, contestants must use
the same horse they qualified with at their county fair. In-
termediate and Senior members are eligible to attend State
Fair. Pleasure classes do not receive score sheets because
they are not state qualifying classes.
Certified helmets must be worn at all times when riding a
horse on the fairgrounds.
If using a snaffle bit, check contest guide.
Your horse’s manure must be removed off the grounds each
day and you must check out with an official 4-H Leader be-
fore leaving at the end of the day or your premium money
will be withheld.
Each horse is a separate project. Which requires a separate
current record.
CONDUCT DURING 4-H/FFA HORSE SHOW
1. Good sportsmanship is a must from everyone present at
the show at all times. Show management may disqualify
any contestant and horse for non-sportsmanlike conduct or
inhumane treatment of horse by any contestant, owner, or
parent.
2. The judge’s decision is final. A protest, criticism, or sug-
gestion will be accepted only in writing with a signature.
No exception. Any complaint about judge’s decisions not
handled in this manner or directed at other contestants, by
contestants, owners, or anyone associated with either, will
be grounds for disqualification of the participant.
3. No one may approach the judge inside the ring or out,
during the show. Anyone wishing to speak with a judge,
during the show, must make arrangements with the horse
superintendent first. If inappropriate behavior, either verbal
or physical, is directed toward a judge outside of the show,
and is reported by the judge to the Extension Agent and/or
horse superintendent, this will be grounds for disqualifica-
tion of the participant related to that person.
4. ABSOLUTELY NO GALLOPING OUTSIDE THE
ARENA. Not only is it potentially very dangerous to
those on foot and with the traffic, it is also very cruel to the
horses who are working hard in the extreme heat. Those
disregarding this rule will be reprimanded severely.
