Quality Assurance Dates Added

by

Quality Assurance is required to exhibit market livestock at the 2020 Adams County Fair.  We have added two additional Quality Assurance dates to the schedule for 2020.  Quality Assurance is being conducted virtually using Zoom and members must preregister at go.osu.edu/adamsqa. Registration must be completed at least 48 hours before the session begins and a link will be sent to the email provided approximately 24 hours before the session.  Families should only register once and list any additional 4-H or FFA members that will be watching on the same form.  Please be mindful of the time slot you choose and remember to log on.  There are limited spots available for each session and when the capacity is reached it closes registration for that session making other members unable to register.

Quality Assurance is also available yqca.org.  There is a $12 fee to take the course and test at this site.  If you choose this option, please screenshot or print your completion certificate and email it to rowe.316@osu.edu.

Livestock Registration Links

by

In place of on site tag-in or mail in registration for 2020 we will be using an online submission form to register animals for the Adams County Junior Fair.  Livestock tags will not be distributed prior to fair check-in.  If your animal has an existing tag, tattoo, or ear notch, please enter that information in the appropriate box of the form.  If your animal does not have a tag or other identification and you are able to tag it using a farm tag you are free to do so.

All market animals will be required to upload photos as an additional identification method.  Breeding animals will not require photos.

Below are the links for each species.  These links and other important livestock information can also be found on our Livestock Projects Page or Horse Program Page.

For Market Livestock Exhibitors:
You will be required to upload 3 photos for each market animal you are registering, 1 of each side and one front/tag view.  Make sure to include all the required information listed on the registration submission.  If you are tagging in a “family animal” be sure to include it on one of the registration forms.  If the “family animal” box is checked, you can switch exhibitors at fair check in.  Each exhibitor MUST have at least one animal that is not a family animal.

For Horse Exhibitors:
If the horse is leased, you should upload the completed Lease Agreement.  If you are participating in the Shared Horse Program, please be sure to complete the Shared Horse Agreement and upload it as well.  These forms can be found at https://adams.osu.edu/program-areas/4-h-youth-development/horse-projects.
