President's Message

UPDATE

Our 20th Annual Show and Convention, June 9-12,2011,  is rapidly approaching and there are many items that need to be addressed.  We are in the process of finalizing the seminar and show schedule, and will get it out as soon as we can dot the last "i" and cross the last "t".  I am personally excited as to the quality and diversity of the seminars already confirmed and think that you will be equally as such.
 
In speaking with both of our judges last week, they are looking forward to the opportunity to share what knowledge and ideas that they can.  You owe it to YOURSELVES to submit something into the competition in order to get a critique complete with pointers on improvement (if any) from two of the finest in the field.  Remember that it is a LEARNING experience.  These gentlemen are willing and eager to help you.  Please allow them to do so!
 
We are going to change the format somewhat in order to make this more of a family event.  Those items will be released soon as well.....We GUARANTEE a FUN AND RELAXED time!
 
Lastly, we will be having a final meeting to discuss the items that still need to be done to pull this off.  It will be held at this year's venue (Ramada Inn on Cactus and I-17 in Phoenix) on March 12, 2011 at 10:00 am.  It shouldn't take too long and any and all members willing to pitch in with the 'chore list' are invited to attend.  Remember what Grandma used to say, "many hands make light work."
 
See you all in a couple of weeks,

Terry Johnson, President

Arizona Taxidermy Artists Association
