Title: Modesto 2017
Post by: Dawn Webster on November 03, 2016, 01:33:25 PM

I am booked to go to Modesto 2017 in February as a spectator. Being from Canada this will be the first visit to a big US show. One of my big motivators is to see what other Ameraucana breeders are producing and hopefully to meet other breeders. If you are going to be there, please let me know. I am also at a state in my breeding program that I know I am going to have to go outside in the next few years if I want to make significant progress and in most likelihood that is going to have to come from the US. I know the bird I need isn't in Western Canada.

Please post some results and photos after the show.  I just found out it is coming up the first weekend in February and we had the wrong dates in our last Newsletter and on our Meets page.

I talked to Alliance member Larry Giberson, from Washington, yesterday.  He normally goes to that show, but can't make it this year.

Uh oh Cesar, I have a feeling you will really appreciate the compact version of Ameraucana. If space is an issue, they are the perfect answer.

You should be eyeing the front lol just kidding I know what you meant. You should try and make it to our National meet. I just got the ok by the board to head up another silent auction. Rumor has it a small hobby farmer, that tends to get lucky. Is planning on donating a trio of Black Bantams, along with a few more varieties of Bantams  ;)

I'm not gonna make it but thought I'd let ya know that you'll be within 15min of my place as you go thru Marysville.  I'm just 15min east if you have any extra time coming or going and would like to stop by.

I'll also be at the Cascade Spring Show in Monroe on March 18th.
