*To be eligible for this class, the animal must qualify in a 150,000-Lb. class. List only placings from the class entered in the contest. In no case will the same animal be eligible
for the 150,000-Lb. class and the Aged Cow class in the same year.
**Yearling heifers that have freshened and are shown in milk must be entered in the Fall Yearling in Milk class. Animals may qualify for entry in this class on the basis of their
placings in a milking class and/or as an unfreshened heifer earlier in the season.
(Right is reserved to combine classes at our own discretion for balanced competition of entries received)
Ownership
Each animal competing must be registered in the Herd Book of the
Holstein Association USA in the name of its Junior exhibitor and
meet the requirements of Junior project work and for exhibition at
4-H, FFA, or Junior state shows or fairs.
JUNIORS MAY SELL THEIR ANIMALS THROUGHOUT
THE SHOW SEASON TO AN ADULT MEMBER AND THE
ANIMAL MAY BE SHOWN UNDER AN ADULT NAME
DURING THE SAME SHOW SEASON. This entry form is strictly
for the junior show/placings at which that animal showed at under a
JUNIOR's ownership.
Title By June 1, 2014
Title of all animals in this competition must be shown on the
registry certificate with ownership recorded by June 1, 2014 as
shown by the filing date on the transfer. A PHOTOCOPY OF
THE REGISTRY­CERTIFICATE FOR THE ANIMAL BEING
ENTERED MUST ACCOMPANY THIS FORM AND SHOULD
CLEARLY SHOW THE OWNERSHIP RECORD AND
TRANSFER DATES. All ownership records will be checked by
Holstein Association USA and their decision on eligibility under this
rule will be final.
It is the responsibility of the owner to provide a suitable picture
of each eligible animal. There is no advantage in sending a large,
unwieldly picture. Under a long standing rule of the All-American
Awards, pictures are required to represent the entry in a stage of
development comparable to its show ring appearance and must be
taken in the current year.
If an entry has qualified also for competition in the Open
All-American, a separate print should be submitted for
each contest.
This year portions of the Jr. All-American results will be
published in full color. Therefore, please submit color photographs.
We do not accept email photos.
As the final judging is principally upon the basis of the pictures, it
is important to secure the best possible picture of each entry. Pictures
submitted become the property of HolsteinWorld and cannot be
returned.
How To Enter
Upon recommendation of the Holstein Association USA and in line
with the rules for 4-H exhibition in the great majority of shows, all
entries must stand on the Association records in the individual
name of the exhibitor. Senior-Junior family partnerships will not
be acceptable. However, two junior exhibitors may own an animal in
partnership if the animal is exhibited by the partnership throughout the
show season.
Entry is completed by submitting a suitable picture of each
eligible animal, together with this form and a copy of the Registry
Certificate to HOLSTEINWORLD, Junior All-American, 6437
Collamer Rd., East Syracuse, NY 13057-1031 Attn: Katy Hitt.
Fax 315.703.7988. Closing date for the receipt of entries in the
Junior All-American Contest is Nov. 1, 2014. In case of any fall
show whose date would make it impossible to comply with this
deadline, special arrangements will be made. Please notify Holstein
World of pending entries 1.800.334.1904 ext.223.
Qualification For Entry
