2020 Patronage Applications
Due to the Corona Virus situation, the committee agreed to cancel all Patronage applications for the 2020 show season.
Any Society or Club that put in an application for 2020 can if they wish carry this over until 2021.
All that is asked is that you inform the Patronage Secretary of:- Date, venue and judge/s.
If any Society or Club has any queries, please contact the Treasurer Paul Paintain by telephone or e. mail
Mobile No. 07488 285441
Paul is dealing with the patronage until a new Patronage Secretary is installed, due to Adam having to step down for personal reasons.
So, if you would be interested in this vacant position please inform Peter Cannan.

The Junior Members plan explained –
JUNIOR MEMBERSHIP
A proposal was due to be put to the AGM regarding Junior Membership and rings.
The proposal was that all Junior Members be given free Membership and rings.
However, due to the Coronavirus the meeting was obviously cancelled.
Therefore, the Committee made a decision that all junior members who have paid for 2020 will have their membership carried over to 2021, therefore must register with the Membership Secretary in writing and include their date of birth.
Any new junior members should pay their membership in the usual way for 2021.
On receipt of their application they will be sent their ring order form.
In line with the ZFS rules this proposal will be included on the agenda for the 2021 AGM, to come into effect from 2022.
JUNIOR RINGS
It was also proposed that all existing and new junior members be given 20 free rings from 2021.
The free ring allocation is only for the current year (it cannot be carried over).
The junior member will be responsible for paying all postage and Paypal fees were applicable.
The free rings are only for the first year of joining.
There is a Ring order form specifically for junior members with details of prices if more than 20 rings are required.
======================================================
The Chairman and managing members of the South Western & Southern Counties Zebra Finch Club have reluctantly made the decision to cancel the planned Sales Day on 25 October due to the new Covid19 guidelines and restrictions and hope that all members and potential attendees keep well and stay safe.’

My thanks to all the Areas involved , in making this a far better way of spreading these shows around. I do hope you all agree that this was also done with the birds in mind .
