NFSS Show in Temple TX

Post by Sally » Fri Nov 11, 2016 10:46 pm

I'll be in Temple TX tomorrow acting as secretary for the Finch Division of the Texas Bird Breeders & Fanciers annual show. Please stop by and say hi if you are in the area. I don't usually have a lot of time to visit, since I have to keep the books and keep up with the judge, but I always have a little time. You can learn a lot from watching judges, too. The judging is scheduled to start at 9am, we usually take a lunch break, and hopefully finish up by 4, though there is no hard and fast rule on this.

There is a mart in conjunction with this show too, so you can visit and shop, all in one trip!

How was Temple Sally? I hated to miss it! My son had a playoff football game and three soccer games that day...it was crazy.

slwatson It was smaller than usual, Stacie. I was very happy to see Colt show here, and he placed 8th on Top Ten bench, plus won a lovely plaque for Best Novice! Hopefully, he is now hooked. I think he had a lot of fun. We are a good group, I think, as we root for each other, lots of visiting and teasing.

slwatson Show season is over for this year, except for Nationals next month, but we start again in September. Cheryl and I do the circuit, Seguin (San Antonio), then Cleburne, Houston, and finally Temple. If you want to show next year, you can always borrow show cages. We do have a lot of fun. Helen went with us to Seguin last September, we had a blast!
