Showmanship Sign-up for Junior Fair – Online NOW!
Showmanship Sign-ups – these will also be completed online this year. There is a deadline to sign-up that is different for specie. If an exhibitor misses their deadline, have them talk to the specie superintendent to see if they can be added late. We have a cutoff time prior to their show day so that we can pull the report, sort by age, and get this to the superintendent as soon as possible to prepare for their show. The direct link for signing up for showmanship is: http://go.osu.edu/fc2020showmanship
DUNF: Drug Use Notification Forms – Now Online and MUST be completed before WEIGH-IN!
DUNF Forms – These will be completed online this year. I would suggest that exhibitors should not fill them out until as close to weigh-in/move-in day as possible to ensure the information is correct and their market/lactating animal is drug free moving into fair. The link to the online DUNF Form is in each of the 2020 Specie Documents (http://go.osu.edu/2020fairinfo). A direct link to the DUNF is: http://go.osu.edu/fairfielddunf. If someone submits a form with errors, please have them contact Leslie Cooksey at cooksey.25@osu.edu so we can delete that record and they will be asked to submit a new form.
Online DUNF Instructions – Fairfield
Market Poultry exhibitors will not have identification until fair weigh-in for their birds. Please put TBD in the identification field and we will update your form after weigh-in.

Take Home Forms – NEW and only for 2020
Take Home Forms – NEW and only for 2020: Market Hogs, Market Beef, Market Lambs, Market Goats, and Market Rabbits will have the option to take home animals. Forms must be completed and 2 copies per specie turned in at that specie’s weigh-in (see form for details). There is no reversal on the decision to take home once the forms are turned in. The only exception to this is if any of those youth are selected as Grand and Reserve Champions, those animals must sell at the auction and will no longer be able to be taken home. The direct link for the Take Home Form is: http://go.osu.edu/2020takehome. For additional sale details for exhibitors, visit: https://u.osu.edu/livestocksale/exhibitor-info/
