NorCal Poultry Association 6th Annual Show

APA / ABA Sanctioned / Cal National APA Sanctioned Egg Competition

March 23-25. 2018 www.norcalpoultryncpa.com

Welcome to our 6th Annual Spring Show

Greetings Fellow Poultry Fanciers, I hope this past year has brought you health &

happiness. As we gear up for another show I want to take a moment to thank all of our members, volunteers

and sponsors, without whom the show would not be possible, especially this year. Due to circumstances in my life I am unable to act as Show Superintendent.

Filling my shoes this year will be Jim and Bonnie Sallee. I want to extend a special thanks to them for stepping up in our time of need. I know the show will be in great hands with these seasoned veterans. New to the show this year, we will host an APA Sanctioned Egg Show.

If you like our show, the best way to ensure that it continues is to volunteer. The help is welcome and

greatly needed. I am looking forward to another great show and thanks in advance for being a part of it.

I hope everyone enjoys the show. Sincerely,

Leeann Stearns, NCPA President
