The Ameraucana Breeders Club started an Exhibitor Point System in 2012, with four levels:
- Supreme Grand Master Exhibitor - 10,000 points for all varieties added together.
- Grand Master Exhibitor - 5,000 points for all varieties added together.
- Master Exhibitor - 800 points for all varieties added together.
- Junior Master Exhibitor - 100 points for all varieties added together, earned before the exhibitor's 18th birthday.
Until this year, we've not had anyone that earned enough points to qualify, but that has changed.
The Ameraucana Breeders Club would like to extend our Congratulations to long-time member and current North Central District Director, Jerry DeSmidt!
Jerry has earned 1010 points since the point tally began in 2012: 416 with large fowl varieties and 594 with bantam varieties. Way to go, Jerry!!
Here is Jerry being awarded the beautiful, crystal etched award at our 2015 National Meet, in Fayetteville, AR, by Paul Smith.
