In revising the premium list for subsequent fairs, the Directors will take cognizance of the entries in the several classes and will revise the premiums offered in proportion to the entries shown by exhibitors, making the premiums larger where exhibitors recognize the efforts of the Seneca County Agricultural Society to give a high-class exhibit as shown by the number and quality of entries made.

REMEMBER... Please remember, Seneca County 4-H Animal Science programming is about Positive Youth

Development…not about winning ribbons:

We are here to have FUN…if we do well besides, then we had more FUN!

If you do not want the judge or evaluator’s opinion, do not enter the class.

You win some, you lose some, and some are cancelled!

In 20 years from now is it going to make a difference?

Youth and Animals…a Natural Combination

Learning + FUN = Positive Self-Esteem

Positive Youth Development through Positive Life Experiences

We believe that the Seneca County 4-H Animal Science Program can be a positive life experience for youth-PLEASE help make it happen!

Superintendents…………Rachel Williams & Susan Coyle

W. Averell H. Bauder - Seneca County Cornell Cooperative Extension Executive DirectorRachel Williams - 4-H Youth Development Resource EducatorSusan Coyle - 4-H Youth Development Community Educator

This is a partnership between Seneca County Cornell Cooperative Extension 4-H Youth Development, Seneca County Schools, and the Seneca County Agricultural Society. The Seneca County Fair offers youth an excellent opportunity to exhibit their yearly accomplishments. Participation in this Department allows youth to demonstrate their abilities to family, friends and the public. SPECIAL THANKS to the Seneca County Agricultural Society for their cooperation and provision of ribbons, trophies and premiums.

Purpose of 4-H Involvement at the Fair

4-H is the youth development component of Cornell Cooperative Extension and represents a partnership between the Cornell Colleges of Agriculture & Life Sciences and Human Ecology along with county level, Cornell Cooperative Extension of Seneca County.

Emphasis is placed on the development and application of useful knowledge and skills as well as the development of positive attitudes about work, people, and communications. The 4-H program is open to youth of all geographic locations, ethnic, racial, economic, and education backgrounds. Some of the life skills that youth work on developing are self-esteem, self-responsibility, learning to learn, social skills, managing feelings and critical thinking. The projects and activities of 4-H are the “learn by doing” tools of subject matter and life skills learning.

Fair programming reflects the following purposes:· To help 4-H youth learn standards of quality in projects work. · To provide an opportunity for recognition of 4-H youth.· To promote public understanding of the 4-H program through the showcase of 4-H

youth in action, as well as exhibits of their 4-H project work.· To provide youth with opportunities for social interaction, communication, and

teamwork.· To provide teens with a variety of activities that aid in the development of leadership

skills and responsibility.

The 4-H events and activities at the County Fair are an outgrowth of the annual education program conducted by 4-H in Seneca County.

We appreciate the cooperation of parents in assisting 4-H members with making out entries but the youth should be encouraged to complete their own entry forms and entry cards.

5. All domestic (non-animal) exhibits will be evaluated in Floral Hall at the Seneca County fairgrounds on Monday before the start of the fair between 2PM -8PM. Exhibitors should bring their entries and be present while they are being evaluated. This is a time for the 4-H member to talk to the evaluator who will provide direct feedback to the youth about their project(s). If an exhibitor is unable to be present for judging day prior arrangements are to be made, including picking up absentee entry forms, from the 4-H office.

6. Clubs will be required to set-up their projects in project area sections (i.e. arts and crafts, food and nutrition, clothing and textiles etc.) in Floral Hall by 8 PM Monday evening.

10. Junior Department exhibitors are invited to enter open class where they are eligible.

11. Exhibits must be picked up on Sunday between 10 AM and 1 PM. The earlier the exhibits are picked up the quicker Floral Hall display units and fixtures can be put away.

It is required that at least one member from each club and independent members come and assist during fair take-down on Sunday.

2018 Seneca County Fair Premium Book 37What Blue, Red, White and Green Ribbons Mean

Judging in 4-H is an evaluation process, NOT a competition. The Danish System of Judging is used. Each item is judged according to a standard (set of criteria) rather than individuals competing against each other. The criteria should be known prior to the evaluation process by the 4-Her, leader, parent/guardian and judge. When determining how closely a product or presentation meets the “standard”, we must always think in terms of the capabilities of individuals of similar developmental groups.

There is no limit to the number of items that can receive each level of award (Blue, Red, and White). With very few exceptions, every item is awarded a ribbon of some kind. Judge’s written comments provide encouragement and point out the path for improvement. This evaluation serves that same purpose as a teacher’s correction of a student’s school work; it gives the participants an opportunity to learn from their work and thus is an essential part of the educational process. Ribbons or ratings indicate the general quality of workmanship achieved.

Blue (Excellent)The workmanship shows little room for improvement compared to the relative standard. Comments could suggest something to try in the future as abilities grow.

Red (Good)The workmanship is satisfactory or “average”, but there are definite areas for improvement, even considering the age and abilities of the child.

White (Worthy)The workmanship shows that little effort has been made and that the finished product is useable for the purpose intended. However, there is much room for improvement, even considering the age and abilities of the child.

Green (Cloverbud)This is given to recognize the participation and achievement of Cloverbud members in the judging process. This is to eliminate comparison and misunderstanding among young members. Cloverbuds are not evaluated as regular 4-H members are at the fair. They have the opportunity to talk to a judge about their 4-H project.

State Fair Selection Ribbons: Entries that are selected for the State Fair are divided into two categories: Judging and Display. Projects for State Fair are selected both by the judges and the 4-H staff. Ribbons will be attached to items selected by the 4-H Staff.

Purple: Items selected at the Seneca County Fair for New York State Fair JUDGING. Projects must have received a blue ribbon and exhibitor must be 9 years old by September 30 of the current year. Rainbow: Items selected from the Seneca County Fair for DISPLAY at the New York State Fair. Cloverbuds and all other 4-H members may have projects selected for display.
