Entries close Aug 30 for the first Tabletop Show in the Pacific Northwest.
The premium book is out for the Western Washington State Fair- better known to us damp Washingtonians as The Puyallup Fair. Here is the link: http://www.thefair.com/_assets/editor_uplo...011_Poultry.pdf
Birds check in Wed pm Sep 7 and go home Sun Sep 11. There will be a serama TT show Friday night and the open show will be judged Saturday morning. Seramas will be judged twice and will pay 2 entry fees of $2.50 each. We have lovely glass rosettes and a REAL serama judge (Don Nelson) and we want everyone to come who is within driving distance! We expect this to be a one time opportunity at this fair. Please come if it is at all possible. Each exhibitor who enters a bird also gets 3 free tickets to the 8th largest fair in the US-normally a pricey ticket- so you may want to enter multiple birds under multiple exhibitors if your family needs more tickets. I live about 20 minutes away from the fairgrounds and can come up with an extra bedroom or transport somebody's birds if it would help. The fair takes good care of the birds during this time, locking cages to prevent theft, and I will be the veterinarian checking in birds and keeping an eye out for any birds with contagious conditions who should be turned away. The fair also offers a very popular junior poultry show Sep 22-25 (fitting and showing on the 24th, conformation judging on the 23rd) but this is the only time there will be a TT show for seramas. We will have different divisions for junior and open birds.
The entries are all on-line and are a little confusing. Follow the directions and enter your serama in the bantam division for the caged show Saturday, then go back and add another entry for the table top show instead of bantam. This will come to $5 per bird. You pay on-line as well. The 3 tickets each exhibitor receives also entitles one to free parking in the bronze or silver parking lots. Here is the information on parking I got from the show secretary:
