Title: spring 2015 shows for North and south Carolina
Post by: Don on January 12, 2015, 09:29:29 PM
The next newsletter is due to go out March 1 which will be in time for a few shows in our area.  I can plan to make the Forsyth Show and the Greensboro show.  Given that we hope to have at least three members showing, and I expect we can muster members for these two shows for sure.  Beth, would you please set meets for these shows before the newsletter deadline?  Which shows do the other members think are good matches for your show schedule?

I copied the following list from the Poultry Central website.  I know that the Forsyth show date is correct but we will need to confirm the other dates.  There was a show in Morganton the second week in Jan, who knew?   And the Unifour show is March 1 at the Rowan Co Fairgrounds, but it will be too late to be called as an ABC meet.

Don,

I suggest you email Beth with the meet requests and ask for a reply to acknowledge receipt.
Also remember the entry deadline for the show and not the show dates would have to be before March 1st...the March 14th show may be close(?).

Will do John.  Thanks!   I hope to get some input from some of the other members about other shows in our area that we can all get behind to support with AMs as well.

I sent e-mails to Mark, Wilber & Karl just now. Didn't even think about the registration deadline. The deadline to register is March 8th, so that would be cutting it close but should still be doable?

I can get the newsletter out no later than March 1st, so that would meet the "Meet Policy" requirements. It would cut it close for those who still get their newsletter by snail mail, I would think.

Shooting for Cape Fear and Southern Hospitality. Unless something blows up, burns down, or implodes between now and then... ;)

Don Jeff is going to make both if all goes well here.

Today is the deadline for the Cape Fear show entries.
I will not be able to make this show for work commitments. 
But I hope there is a great turn out, and another AM gets to Champion Row.

Attended the inaugural  show in Edgefield SC yesterday...I was told that there were 350 birds entered,... most were bantam, only maybe  dozen LF, but not a single Ameraucana...Hope to change that this fall when they have their second show thanks to Don!

I know Don can't go to Cape Fear, but is anyone else going??
I won't be showing any birds, but I'd love to meet up with other Ameraucana breeders if possible!
