There will be the usual signs placed on the outside of the two Centres saying which birds are being exhibited in the relevant Centres.

The Fifes will bring
additional staging to cater for their additional exhibits over last years’ 900 entries for which show staging is already available. The OVCA volunteered to move into the Argyle Centre.

the Show Secretaries to contact Keith Jones as soon as their entries are known so that he can allocate space on the staging. His telephone number is 02476 694175 or email
keithjones157@hotmail.com . Chris Smith and David Allen will discuss which canary clubs will transfer to the Argyle Centre in order to make room for additional Gloster and Fife entries.

‘Yellow
Notification Forms’ that will be taken to the National Co-ordinator’s desk in the Argyle Centre by each Show secretary when they are satisfied that all their exhibitors have claimed their birds. Once all the ‘Yellow Notification Forms’ have been received by the National Co-ordinator he will give instructions for the doors to be opened. Lifting time will be 3.30 pm.
