The Carolina Feather
Fanciers Association no longer will request meets from any club other than the
ABA & APA. If Breed Clubs wish to place a meet at our show we will be glad to
except the meet. Club members of breed clubs that show with us who wish to
compete in a meet from their club will need to have their club place a meet with
us at least two months before the show to be listed on the web site and in the
show book that is mailed out. We are taking this action because for years we
have requested meet and no one would show in that breed or no club members would
show in that breed. There for we will only have those meets that there is
interest in.
