Februarys meeting there will be a demonstration on Modern Old English. March the demonstration will be on Old English Game Bantams. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Note from the Club Treasurer Happy New Year to Everyone. As of January 1, 2002 they have worked out the problem of Shipping birds. Get your incubators cranked up and advertise them, it is very easy to ship birds. I encourage everyone to advertise in our club news letter, it is free, and a good way to get rid of your excess birds or get into a new variety. Don’t forget to attend monthly meeting’s and support your club. Note from the Vice President I wish to welcome our new President to office. I hope everyone gives Melvina Reid the support she deserves. By now people are probably getting their breeding pens all set up for the season. Good luck to one and all; hope you all hatch some champions. It won’t be long and our Fall Show will be here. We all need to start thinking about helping the Club out with the show. As some of the members stated at a recent meeting, people don’t need to get on a committee to help with the show because they know the work always gets done. This did not set well with this old dog! At probably 95% of our functions that we have had since the Club has started I have helped on both setting up and tearing down. Not this Fall, I will help set up and run the show. When the Judging is over this year and clean up starts, me and my birds are going home. *****Attention***** A Note From Our Webpage Designer ********REMEMBER******** Our monthly meeting is every first Saturday of the month at 7:00 PM at Hepburn Library in Madrid.
