  1. Junior Department Shows are open to boys and girls who are 8 years of age or in third grade and not yet 21 years of age on or before September 1 of the year previous to the fair. Open competition for exhibitors from Illinois and adjoining counties in Indiana, subject to the judgment of the secretary. If classes are filled to capacity, it shall be up to the judgment of the secretary to reject or accept further entries. Group placings are not permitted. Junior Show pigeons must be the property of the boys and girls showing them. If these birds are shown in the Open Classes, they must be shown in the same name.
