FEATURE MINUTES
OF MEETING HELD AT COVENTRY ON 26TH APRIL 2015 FOR THE NATIONAL EXHIBITION
1. Welcome – Les Rance welcomed the 23 club representatives attending.
2. The 2014 National Exhibition was reviewed. It was agreed that the layout of Exhibition halls was acceptable. There was a long discussion on the security issues and the need to provide signage on the outside doors so that exhibitors knew which hall to book their birds into on the Sunday morning. There would need to be strict
enforcement of the way birds are accepted on checking in, ALL birds will have to be checked in in front of the crowd barriers so that no exhibitors access the exhibition area, this is to ensure the best possible security of birds.
3. Sponsorship arrangements for 2015 – The Chairman told the meeting that as The Birdcare Company was no longer wishing to be a joint sponsor Johnston & Jeff will in future be the sole sponsor. 4. Checking In facilities for 2015 –
Booking in tables will again be lined up in front of the Show staging and the crowd barriers. Security is paramount at this event and we do not want exhibitors gaining access to the exhibition area when birds are staged. Chris Smith agreed to supervise the barrier in the Sandylands Hall during the checking in process. We do not see any need for anyone other than Club and Show Officials to be in the show area of the halls until after completion of judging and the show is open to the general public at 12.30pm on Sunday. Exhibitors MUST wear wrist bands when they enter Sandylands and Argyle Centres on Sunday morning to book in their birds. Then only security would be needed on the doors into Sandylands and Argyle Centres. No person will be allowed to enter the show halls on Sunday morning without a wristband. All those attending
