RULES:
If any club member is not allowed to show at a Tennessee show due to being
the Show Chairman or having to work the show, he/she will be allowed
to double his/her points of another show if they do not have 4
other shows.
Donkeys can not count youth classes or fun classes
such as panty race, musical buckets and costume towards their
annual awards.
Grand Champion and Reserve Grand Champion are determined by totaling
Halter, In Hand, In Cart, and Color points (spotted color added
will be minus ACOSA).
YOUTH RULES:
Youth exhibitors will be allowed to show multiple donkeys but will only be
able to use the points from one donkey towards youth award. They
get to choose which donkey at the end of the year along with which
4 shows.
If a show offers a specific youth class, the youth will only be able to show
in that youth class, the youth can not show in the same adult/open
class. An adult however can show that donkey in the open or adult
class. This rule is a per class rule and not an entire show rule.
If a youth has only the option to show in an open class the youth
will acquire points toward the youth award and the donkey will
also earn points towards its show awards.
exp: A show has a youth coon jumping class, the youth can only show in the
youth coon jumping class but not the adult/open coon jumping class,
but if the same show doesn't have a youth snigging class, in that
case the youth can show in the open snigging class.
Game classes such as panty race, costume, musical buckets, etc. will be counted
towards youth annual awards.
