I hadn't studied the break down until you mentioned it.  All 8 accepted varieties in both LF and bantam will be really great, especially for fanciers that haven't seen some of those varieties before in the flesh.  Bring your cameras. :)

Updated to add the weekend forecast for Lebanon looks real nice for this time of year...

I made a few mistakes on the awards list that was in the newsletter and below is a corrected copy.  These are HUGE amounts of cash and with the donations from members it all adds up to well over 2 grand in awards being offered! 
Duane Schroeder made a donation that I mistakenly credited to an other member and that is now correct also.

Awesome numbers for sure, I will warn you now folks. I have a couple aces that will keep everyone honest lol. Wish I had the time to condition them better but it is what it is as this point. John please put me down for both dinners and I will be bringing my Uncle as well if that is ok. Looking forward to this Epic display of Ameraucana and the wonderful fellowship as well.
