2008 Membership Application

 

 

 

ALL MEMBERS PLEASE READ

In response to requests from AJCA members, parents, county agents and agriculture teachers across the state, the AJCA board voted to make a change that we feel will impact all of our members in a positive way.  Effective beginning in 2008, year-end award totals will be calculated using only the highest 12 point entries (shows) per exhibitor per division.  For example, if a member shows in a breed at 14 shows, only the 12 shows with the highest points will be used for award purposes.  This change has been made so that members don't feel like they have to pull to shows every weekend to win AJCA year-end awards.  We understand how the change in the economy and the increasing fuel costs are affecting everyone.  We are doing what we can to help.

 

The only contest that will still be decided using all points from all shows is the Overall High Point - Jason Bertschy Memorial Award.

 

Points will still be collected, calculated and posted the same way throughout the show season.  However, when points are totaled at the end of the year we will use the highest 12 point entries in each breed and showmanship division for each individual (if you show in more than one breed your 12 high point shows could be different for each breed).  We still encourage each exhibitor to go to as many shows as possible.  The AJCA Board hopes this will take some of the financial pressure off of our members and their families.  We also understand that many questions will arise from this.  Please feel free to contact any of the board members, listed on the AJCA website, with questions or contact me directly at 479-616-4119 or kpruitt@marathongl.com

 

NOTE:  State Fair offers several opportunities for showmanship points.  These have always been and will continue to be recorded as one entry for State Fair.
