2014 - It's going to be a big year!

12/22/2013

 
We look forward to many changes coming to the website and the club for 2014.

Membership Dues:

The IBCC will begin requiring membership dues in 2014.  These dues will be important for the club to put towards the fees of pursuing APA acceptance into the SOP, for funding the cost of the club promotional materials and promotion for the breed, as well as to fund upcoming events, newsletters, advertisement, website expenses, and other events.  We hope to be able to support our Juniors as well as we gain in size, with the potential for scholarship funding in the future.  Dues go a long way to helping the club achieve it's goal of supporting the Iowa Blue breed to its maximal potential!

Membership dues begin 2014 and more information can be found HERE.


Committees:

The following committees have been formed with participation welcomed.  If you have an interest in participating on one or more of these committees, please contact the club with your name and a little bit about why you wish to join the committee.  Members only, please.

  • Standards Committee
  • By Laws Committee
  • Promotions & Showing Committee
  • Newsletter Committee
  • Website Maintenance


Click HERE to view the members of the current committees.

Newsletter:

This year we will begin an IBCC newsletter, with information about current happenings with the breed and its members.  We are always looking for stories to highlight and love for members to submit stories, photos, news, and information to the Newsletter Committee.

Members Only Section:

The webmaster is hard at work developing a member's only section for our membership.  This section will hold our historical archive of information on the breed as well as a modern information archive of recent articles and information.  IBCC club business will be listed in this section along with IBCC meeting minutes for all members to review.

Members will have access to the forum and the chat room to communicate with other members as well as a membership list including contact information for members to connect.

More content to come!

The EIPA show in Iowa City was a wonderful time for us all.  The IBCC held a membership meeting and have begun to lay out plans for the upcoming year.  We have begun collecting members for various committees, and always welcome more to join!

Kari McKay-Widdel's Silver Cockerel was awarded best of breed for the show and the IBCC displayed a wonderful table complete with a popular raffle.  We welcome some new Iowa Blue fanciers and congratulate everyone who won some lovely silver Iowa Blues in the raffle, as well as hatching eggs and other prizes.  

Thanks to everyone who made it!

Congratulations to our new club officers!
