Title: Ameraucana Breeders Club 40th Anniversary! Part I
Post by: Susan Mouw on June 30, 2018, 01:55:58 PM
2018 is a hallmark year for the Ameraucana Breeders Club! It is our 40th Anniversary!

The ABC was formed in 1978 and has grown, strengthened, and educated many about our beloved breed, Ameraucanas, in both large fowl and bantams for all these years.

Are you interested in learning more about our club, its achievements, challenges, and experiences? Stay tuned!

Did you know the first ABC Nationals was held Nov 28-30, 1980 at the Eastern Iowa Poultry Association show in Bluegrass, Iowa, with Jerry Segler and Ron Klemmedson taking top honors? (Ameraucana Bantam Club Winter Bulletin, 1980)
ABC Bulletin Winter, 1980 (http://ameraucanabreedersclub.org/docs/bulletins/ABC%20Bulletin%201980%20vol%202%204.pdf)

More will be coming in the days and weeks ahead as we prepare to celebrate our 40th (Ruby) Anniversary National at the Dayton Fancy Feathers show, Greenville OH, October 6th-7th, 2018.
