GLBS 1999 Show
We had a tremendous amount of fun with our Aug. 6-7, 1999, Great Lakes Budgie Society Show. Bob Wilson judged the team competition and futurity on Friday night, and Don Langell did the main honors on Saturday. We had five divisions: Junior, Novice, Intermediate, Champion, and Rare. Here are the birds, and some of the people.

These Budgies in the Champion Division are stacked and ready to be judged. This is the Budgie equivalent of "Gentlemen, start your engines!"
And the winner is . . .
