Please call Muriel if you are interested in exhibiting any of your birds. I know it is short notice, but she has been known to accept a faxed entry with payment before coop-in.
Or, if you just want to attend the show, call Muriel for directions and any questions you may have.
I won't be there as I already have plans for the weekend, but there are a lot of breeders who will be there and are willing to share their knowledge about their birds.
Have fun!!!
