Ameraucana National Meet

[Blue Egg Acres]

My show catalog came in today\'s mail. Thanks John.

[John]

Even though the Show Catalogs were mailed over two weeks ago about half the people I\'ve heard from got theirs right away and the others didn\'t.  Yesterday Bill Wulff called and said he didn\'t receive one yet and Harold Knapp emailed and said he just got his today.  If you still haven\'t received one that doesn\'t mean you won\'t, but either way remember Entry Forms must be postmarked by September 30th.
If you can\'t print one from the website let me know and I\'ll send one.

If anyone would like to help by being a cleck for a few hours during the show please let me know and I\'ll add your name to the list.

Between Harold, Barbara, Michael, Mike, Bob, Paul, Jerry and me I know of over 150 Ameraucana entries.  I do believe we\'ll hit the 200 mark when all the entries are in and counted.
Hope you can make it,

Bob Rennolet from SD will be at the ABC National Meet!

Some of you know that I was hoping for 200+ Ameraucana entries for the National Meet.  You did it!
As of today, with most entries received, I count 223.
That\'s 219 in the Open show and 4 in the Jr show.
We have 1,059 total entries for the show and a few more may trickle in tomorrow.  I was looking for between 1,000 and 1,200 and that is exactly where we are.
The maple trees around here are gorgeous and hopefully the fall colors will at there peak, in this area, for the show.
It\'s shaping up to be a great one (as usual).
