The Rules

In order to make the show as pleasant an experience as possible for everyone we ask that all who exhibit or attend the show to follow some simple guidelines. 

*    First, we ask that all observe care and caution around the operating power equipment and demonstrations, particularly the belted equipment.  Operating equipment should not be left unattended by the owner / operator.

*    The presence of carts, ATV's, or vehicles on the grounds is allowed only to those necessary for show functions or for handicapped access - joyriding is not allowed.  All vehicles on the grounds must be registered at the information booth.  If not registered, or if the vehicle is not being used for it's stated purpose, you will be asked to remove your vehicle from the grounds.

*    We ask that all refrain from drinking alcoholic beverages during the show.

*    No extra riders on the tractors or equipment are permitted.  All drivers of tractors, equipment, carts, or ATV's on the show grounds must have a valid Drivers License.
