Title: Chinchilla Shows
Post by: georgiachins on April 03, 2008, 08:52:11 PM

Does anyone know when the next chin show will be in GA,SC,NC, or VA?  All that is up on the MCBA website is for PA & midwest shows... but "York" wasn't up so I was thinking that maybe all of the shows weren't posted there.  Thanks!

I've been pondering the answer to that same question. The pictures I've viewed from other shows look like a great learning experience, even for spectators-only like myself.  ::bouncyball::

There is usually a show in the fall.  Southeast Coastal Show.  We didn't have one last year because of conflicts getting a building, judge....and other things kept creeping up.

We were able to have a SC Field Day Show in October which went really well. 

Hopefully, this year a show will take place.

You can look on the MCBA website (www.mutationchinchillas.com) and the Empress (www.empresschinchilla.com) website for show listings. 

Living in the south, there aren't many shows around.  If you want to go to a show...you have to travel!

We went to the MCBA Nationals ....15 1/2 hours away~!

Yes... We  went to the field day show & all of our chins did amazing we had a 1st in the standard & the same chin was class reserve champ... we were so pleased.  I was just hoping that we could get more down here.  We need to find a way to do that.  I can't afford gas to travel all around.  GA,SC,TN, NC, VA would be great!!  We need to try something!
