I agree to the drawings/raffles policy.
Your drawing slips may only request name, address, phone number, and appropriate demographic info.
A sign stating the following rules must be next to the box for entries:
– Need not be present to win.
– No purchase necessary.
– Entry forms also available at ________ (This must be an alternate location in the Sacramento area or on the web with no admission charge).
All approved drawings should be held and completed on the event date, but absolutely must be held no later than Sunday, July 30, 2023, by 10 p.m. Holding your drawing after this deadline makes it invalid and may affect your ability to hold drawings/raffles at future California State Fairs.

You also agree that there will be no games, gambling, or any other activity on the premises in which money is used as a prize or premium nor can you buy back discount coupons for cash. Raffles requiring the payment of money or other items of value will not be allowed under any circumstances.
Only free drawings that comply with all applicable federal, state and local statutes and ordinances will be permitted. Failure to abide by any of the above guidelines will jeopardize any use of drawings in future Fairs.

Megan's Law
POLICY: One of the fundamental responsibilities of the California Exposition & State Fair (Cal Expo) is to protect the public. In 1998, Cal Expo implemented a policy requiring that all persons conducting business with, employed by, or volunteering at Cal Expo shall provide the necessary personal information to enable their names to be searched through the Department of Justice’s Megan’s Law files. This file consists of records of individuals convicted of specific sex offenses who are required by Penal Code Section 290 to register as sex offenders. This form must be completed legibly, with all information requested, or it will not be accepted. Typewritten forms may be substituted but must contain the same information in the columnar form and be attached to this form and including names of the person/company, on each page. Submit the information promptly to the Cal Expo Personnel Office prior to the event. **sworn officers and active military are exempt from the process.**
