INFORMATION FOR FARMS AND
SHOW MANAGERS / SECRETARIES


SHOW MANAGEMENT TOOLS

The following are not required for FADS shows! 
You are not required to use any of them! 
However, they might help you give a better show.

NOTE 1: These files are posted here for educational purposes and may be used by individual farms.  You may link to these files from your web site only with permission (email LeslieRaulin@gmail.com).  You may not download any of the files and then post them on your web site.

NOTE 2: FADS shows must use FADS ShowWare (click here) for their show data, which is much easier for you and for me.  However, you must be using a PC.  The program does not run on Apple devices.

NOTE 3: FADS shows must use the FADS online entry form, which is easy for entrants and for show secretaries.

NOTE 4: FADS does not provide a template for a hold harmless agreement.  This is a legal document that should be custom drafted for your shows. 

ACCIDENT PREPAREDNESS PLAN: It is recommended that each volunteer be provided a copy of an accident preparedness plan so they know the procedure in the event of an accident.
