Code of Ethics represents the expectations that all volunteers, parents, adult spectators
and paid staff are expected to observe while working with and around youth

• Work within the 4-H program. As a 4-H volunteer, I am accountable to the local club, the
appropriate Extension Unit, the Kansas 4-H Youth Development Program, K-State

experiences.

themselves in a manner that will bring honor to you, your family, and 4-H/FFA. To do
that, youth must:
• Conduct yourself and your project work in a manner that is trustworthy, respectful,
responsible, fair, caring and in good citizenship.

being in assigned program locations/sessions, abiding by deadlines, times and housing
arrangements. If you are unable to participate or need assistance, notify those in charge of
the event/program.

dressing appropriately, and by not using profanity. You will be personally responsible for
any damage caused as a result of your behavior. Know that the use of tobacco, alcohol,
and non-prescription drugs by youth is illegal.

illegal and prohibited at all 4-H events.

experiences.

arrangements for a replacement tag. Animals arriving at the fair without a tag may be
disqualified at the discretion of the superintendents, agents and fair board.

15. Ethical treatment of animals and sportsmanship are the responsibility of all exhibitors, parents,
leaders, and all involved. All animals will be handled in a humane manner in accordance with

specie.
21. Each exhibitor must show his or her own animal without assistance, notwithstanding special
circumstances. If the exhibitor has more than one entry in a class or in the Champion Drive,
is unable to show due to sickness or injury, or has other superintendent approved reasons,
another 4-H or FFA member of that county may show the animal, with prior approval by the
superintendent of the division. Infractions of this rule will result in forfeiture of award for this
animal in this class.
22. Exhibitors must own the animals they show. Ownership is established for breeding animals at
the time of pre-entry via the Breeding Animal Registration Form and for market animals at

show the animal in a market or breeding class.
23. In order to be eligible to show, animals must be individually owned or leased by the 4-H or

animal in the fair.
