2016 RAWF PRESIDENT’S LETTER
On behalf of The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, I would like to welcome you as an exhibitor in our 94th annual Fair. I am new — and not so new — to The Royal. I have been a Board member for six years and in April, I succeeded Paul Larmer as President and Chairman of The Royal’s Board of Directors. I am neither a farmer nor a horseman but my family’s roots run deep at The Royal. My grandfather John W. McKee was one of the charter members of The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair Association of Canada in 1919 and my grandmother competed in the first ever Royal. Our family has been closely involved with The Royal ever since.
Many of the values that my ancestors and their compatriots envisioned almost 100 years ago still ring true today. The Royal has been — and still is — all about excellence in agriculture, food and equine
sport. The Royal is the culmination of the shows and competitions our exhibitors enter each year to qualify for this final, most prestigious event. For the farmers who enter our competitions, winning or placing well at The Royal represents a significant business opportunity. A Royal champion Ayrshire cow or Suffolk sheep or Angus bull is worth more than it was before our show. Of course, The Royal is about more than business — it’s also about pride. Whether you exhibit jam or honey or maple syrup or cheese, winning at The Royal creates a sense of pride that burns as brightly in the year it is earned as it does in the memory of champions from years past.
While The Royal is steeped in tradition, it is also moving forward to embrace new technology and best-in-class practices. At the centre of our ambitious
plans is the goal of improving exhibitor experience. For 2016, we are relocating and expanding our main large livestock show ring, The Ring of Excellence. The new Ring will include better sightlines, hospitality suites and livestreaming of all events. TV monitors in the barns will keep exhibitors up to speed on what is taking place in the Ring, and livestreaming will open our shows and sales to a wider audience than ever before.
The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair is a great Canadian tradition. By competing in The Royal, you become part of our tradition — and part of our future. I wish you every success in the Royal competition of your choice. We appreciate your participation and your loyalty. Rest assured that we continue to work hard to create a best-in-class experience for you.
Andrew McKee, PresidentRoyal Agricultural Winter Fair
John Deere is proud to support this world-class event celebrating thehard work of farmers across the country.

In the event that an animal’s entry is can-celled for health issues and a refund is awarded no substitution will be allowed.
3. The competence of the handlers and show-people is considered essential. Untrained individuals, including show personnel and visitors, should not be permitted to handle animals or equipment. Exhibitors are expected to provide adequate training for anyone handling their livestock. Any exhibitor who cannot handle their animal will not be allowed in the show ring, at the discretion of the RAWF management.
4. All livestock entered in purebred classes for show or sale at the RAWF must be recorded as Purebred as determined by the by-laws of an Association authorized to register animals of that breed.Each breed association shall:a. Be solely responsible to assure that its breed reg-
istration rules, regulations and by-laws, including those relating to ownership and to those relating to criteria defining “purebred” for that specific breed are adhered to.
b. Be solely responsible to verify and assure, prior to the competition, that each entry made in a breed association sanctioned show is eligible to compete in the class or classes declared by the exhibitor.
c. Indemnify the RAWF against all legal or other pro-ceedings related to the implementation of the breed association’s rules, regulations and by-laws.
5. PRODUCTION OF CERTIFICATES: Exhibitors of ani-mals entered in the purebred classes must have original certificates of registration available for inspection by the relevant Breed Association or RAWF officials.
6. CFIA TAGS: All livestock must arrive with CFIA tags and they are to be tagged before leaving the farm.

8. BARREN ANIMALS: The Association debars and will, to the utmost of its power, discourage and prohibit the showing of barren animals in breeding classes/shows.
9. STALLS: Stalls and pens for livestock will be allotted by the Superintendent of the division. No exhibitor has the right of use to any stall at succeeding Fairs. Conse-quently, exhibitors installing fittings in a stall do so sub-ject to the RAWF’s right to enter the stall and remove such fittings when, in the opinion of management, it is desirable to do so to cope with stabling requirements or to comply with fire safety regulations. No overhead storage will be permitted as per general rule #16.
10. ACCOMMODATION FOR LIVESTOCK: It shall be the duty of the Superintendent of the division to prevent an exhibitor from utilizing too many stalls or pens or from unduly crowding their animals; to regulate the use of stalls or pens for purposes other than the accommo-dation of exhibits and to require the use of sufficient
13
2016 LIVESTOCK COMPETITION — RULES & REGULATIONS
bedding by each exhibitor, at the expense of such exhib-itor, to provide a neat and attractive exhibit. NOTE: Stalls will be assigned at the complete discretion of the Superintendent with regard to the number of entries an exhibitor brings to the RAWF. The Superintendent’s deci-sion is final. Any exhibitors who do not tie their entries as assigned may be asked to leave the grounds and forfeit their entry fees. For Display and pop-up tent regulations, refer to General Rule #26.
11. STALL BED (BEEF): A standard amount of first bedding pack will be provided for Beef Cattle and Youth Cattle shows. a. Shavings may be used at the owner’s expense.b. Beef and youth cattle exhibitors will not be permitted
to use straw in the designated stalls. Straw will only be allowed for tie-outs.
12. FORAGE AND BEDDING: Hay, straw and grain may be purchased on site at reasonable prices from an autho-rized contractor. To prevent congestion in the aisles during the hours of peak attendance, no deliveries of feed will be made after 10:00 a.m. Exhibitors may bring in feed and bedding for their own livestock, but delivery of such feed and bedding will be restricted to the period between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. NO SELLING OF HAY, STRAW OR GRAIN BY ANY PERSON OTHER THAN THE RAWF’S AUTHORIZED CONTRAC-TOR WILL BE PERMITTED. Extra bales of straw may be placed in feed aisles. All feed buckets, forks and other equipment used in connection with the exhibit must be stored in the feed aisles when not in use and nothing may be stored in such aisles to a height greater than that of the partitions. NO LARGE ROUND or SQUARE BALES (of any kind) ARE ALLOWED TO BE STORED IN THE BARN.
13. MANURE: We ask for all exhibitors’ cooperation in keep-ing the barn as clean as possible. If your animal drops manure in the aisles or on the carpet, we ask that you clean it up immediately. Manure must be removed by the exhibitor and taken to the specified containers outside the barn for the duration of the show. It must not be piled in the aisles or in the barn during the day. This rule will be in effect from November 3 to November 15, inclusive. Wire, bottles or other solid objects must not be disposed of in the manure. Exhibitors must bring their own manure carts to move their manure to specified containers.
14.
