Exhibiting, Promoting & Club Notes / Re: Meet Policy Update
« Last post by Becky J Pelton on October 12, 2025, 08:25:30 pm »6) “show request before the quarterly news letter”. Most show are scheduled well in advance so I agree with a request needing to be made before the newsletter is published, but I feel their needs to be wording added to include how to proceed if a AA meeting is canceled at short notice. If that was to happen I would like for there to be a way another AA club meeting could be approved within 30 days. That would mean it could not be announced in the News letter.
7) when the annual meetings are discussed we need to be sure that all states are included in that request. Every Annual AA meeting I have attended, I have had to travel more than 600 miles. I would like for more Southern States to be discussed. Such as Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia or even South Carolina. There are breeders on the South East Coast that are not able to attend meetings because of the distance they will have to drive.
“showing another breeders birds”. Laura is correct, there are people that take advantage of this topic. I, myself could see where this would help another breeder in case of an emergency. This is just an example: let say Stan had his birds prepared and ready for the show but an emergency came up and he was not able to show. I would happy to take his birds and place them in the cages. I do not want to be responsible for show forms, payments, bathing, and he would be willing to crate his birds. I would be willing to accept the responsibility of placing his birds in the cage safety and then bringing the home after the show. Those would still be his birds. I would just be a transporter.
9) Again I’m going to reiterate the fact that this site is NOT user friendly. If this is the only forum we can use it needs to be updated and ALL members need to be aware of that fact. If this site cannot be updated the Alliance needs to come up with a website that is more user friendly.
