ENTERING AND PLACING EXHIBITS

Entry Forms should be filled in by the exhibitor before arrival at the hall.

Show Committees will receive, register and assist in the classification and placement of entries on the Show Tables.  No entries will be accepted after the times listed in (2) above.

Any question on the Class in which an entry should be placed is to be referred to the Classification Committee before an exhibitor submits the entry form.  Entries entered in an incorrect Class might not be moved, and may be disqualified by the Committee or be eliminated from competition by the Judge.

JUDGING
If there is only one entry in a class and it is worthy of an award, it will be given.  Quality of the exhibit in each class will be the principle factor for an entry to merit a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd award.  The decision of the Judge is final.

The Showroom will be closed to all but working committees between the hours of 3:30 pm and 6:00 pm.
At the discretion of the Judge or Convenor a class may be subdivided into two or more classes. Whenever possible, exhibitors,
