ABC Meets are set for many spring shows.
« on: February 18, 2018, 08:18:16 AM »
Take a look at the Upcoming meets section for the many meets that are set for the next months in your area.  The Upcoming Meets section does not show as updated posts, but there are sanctioned shows set for many areas of the country. 

There are shows nearly every weekend in March and there are three meets set Just in NC and SC this next month.    Morganton NC March 17, Blackville SC 24th an Winston-Salem NC on the 31st.

Please let your District Director know if you would like to request a meet in the months ahead. New Meets should be listed in the next ABC Bulletin.   Good Luck with your AMs at the Shows.
