October 23rd, MCBA Claims Show in Ohio

[Becky]

No- they can come in on Saturday morning.

Looks like I will be making it after all since I have to pick up feed.

No, you can bring them over and register any time before classification, including Saturday morning. But people can claim an animal once it is registered - I claimed one that Friday night a couple years ago. I wanted to get him before anyone else did. =)

Claiming goes on during and until shortly after the show, so they can have their award and you can hear their comments if it helps you decide. However, it's not an auction, once they're claimed you can't out-claim on them, so the GSC and such may be claimed before the show even starts. Claimy claim claim.

Tiff i don't think Shoots is planning to attend so you might have to head over to the ranch...darn I hate that you'd probably have to look at chins while you were there LOL.

We booked our room this weekend! Whoo hoo

 

[threewingedfury]

I know they're not making it, I have to go over to pick up feed from them after the show. I figured if I had to make a trip to Ohio, I might as well plan to make it to the show and make it worthwhile.

I think I am going with my girlfriend just to watch and hang out. Do people usually have things for sale at shows, such as blue cloud?

You can contact Ryerson Chinchilla, who can bring a bag to the show for you.

I made reservations, I also will be going to see the Shoots, When I talked to Ralph he thought he would at least be coming by the show but that is fine too I would love to see his place

 

[Becky]

I finally made reservations for a room and the banquet. Even combed a few animals. Looks like I'll be showing 5- unless of course I change my mind!

 

[Megan]

Due to a family emergency, I will no longer be able to make the show. My gram took a massive stroke last weekend, and we had thought things were going well--so I was going to come out. We now don't know how long we'll have left..so my weekend will be spent in the hospital with her .

You guys all have fun!!

 

[starleomach]

I am sorry Megan I hope you get the time with her you need

 

[VolunteerChin22]

Oh no! I am sorry to hear she is in ill health.

I am bringing 3 to show and one cutie pie to run away with the baby derby

 

[VolunteerChin22]

Missed my edit window but is anyone bringing any violet wraps or tov beiges with them? I have someone looking...

 

[starleomach]

I am making a stop to Dawnna's on the way down chocolatechinchillas.com if anyone needs anything I would be happy to transport

 

[threewingedfury]

I'm bringing along 10 lbs of whole rosehips if anyone is interested for $8/lb. Hopefully it'll help pay for my trip, lol.

 

[mishalaa]

Sorry you won't be making it, Megs, I wish your grandmother the best. =(

I haven't had time to come up with anything for the raffle, so I will be donating a chinchilla plaque that I have here.

I have three for the show and one for the baby derby. And looking to claim one!

 

[starleomach]

I am bringing 2 young males to enter one a violet one a standard. So I will have a violet...not a wrap but there is a cutie violet going....

 

[saphire]

Looking forward to seeing you all

 

[starleomach]

I also grabbed a sapphire male, he won't be entered as he is not show ready but I brought him along
