Sedalia

[Mike Gilbert]

I mailed mine yesterday.  Four bantams and four large fowl, all brown reds as that is the only variety we have left after the Lucasville show.   Except for three bantam wheaten females to be shipped to GA next Tuesday.   Thanks to Paul, the four large fowl entered will be going to a new home in Texas.   Don't know if my brown red bantams will be in condition to show as they are trying to finish  the molt or finish growing adult feathers.    I was wondering if we plan to do a club raffle?   If so we should all bring some items or birds to raffle off.   Don't forget to bring eggs for the egg judging contest, no entry fee for that.  It will be a lot of fun as it always has been.

My husband Mark & I are coming and Jerry Segler will be coming also with us.    We are all bringing birds.  Where can the club meet unofficially on Friday eve or afternoon?

Let's just plan on meeting at the show late Friday afternoon.   Then we can decide what to do, where to go in the event we are not going to the Muenks'.   I don't believe he has mentioned a cancellation, so will assume the get-together at his place is still on until we hear otherwise.   Michael, if you read this, if you are still planning to have the meeting at your place, what can we bring?

[Paul]

Paul talked with Michael Muenks on Sunday evening.  The ABC party at the Muenks' house is cancelled due to his dad's car accident.  Michael M. will be at the show on Saturday to help with the ABC table.

[Jean]

Mike,  I will try to call you tomorrow since I cannot attend the show and you are Honorary VP.  I haven't been in touch with Michael.

Maybe you and Paul can run the annual meeting. 

[Mike Gilbert]

I'll try this one more time.   Is anyone organizing an ABC raffle for the national meet this year?  We do that sometimes to raise money for the club treasury.

[John]

an ABC raffle for the national meet this year?

I'm not organizing, but we plan to donate 2 nest boxes to the raffle.

[Schroeder]

I have a couple of items I intend to bring.

[Mike Gilbert]

We will bring something as well.   I'll talk with Mary and see what we can come up with.

[Paul]

Angela can help.
Matthew will be able to help.
We can bring the paper sacks.

[John]

Matthew will be able to help.

I'm sure David would like to help sell tickets at the club table.

[Paul]

That sounds great!

Does the club have tickets for the raffle?  If not we can get them.

[Sharon Yorks]

I'm not going to make it to the Nationals this year, but I wish I could help somehow. Is there anything I can do at this end?

[Paul]

Thanks Sharon,  I think everything is covered.

  The forecast for Friday and Saturday in Sedalia is for highs in the upper forties.  Be sure to pack accordingly!
   Right now they are saying there is a zero chance of rain for Saturday.   Of course, as we all know, mother   nature often has a way of mocking the forecasters.
