ATTENTION
NATIONAL SHOW EXHIBITORS
All animals to be exhibited at American
Maine-Anjou Association (AMAA) national
shows should be registered with the AMAA
prior to the show's entry deadline. The
AMAA office suggests registration
applications for animals to be exhibited
at AMAA national shows be received a
minimum of two weeks prior to the show's
entry deadline to allow for processing.
REGISTRATIONS FOR UPCOMING SHOWS
It will soon be time to register show
animals for the fall and winter shows.
Please keep in mind beginning Oct. 1,
2007, you will need to allow at least
two weeks for turn-around on
registrations and transfers sent in to
our office. If a paper is needed within
two weeks, a rush fee ($25 per eight
head) will be required before the work
will be completed.
REGISTRATION NUMBERS
Once an animal is registered, it is
backed up that same night to our Web
site at
www.maine-anjou.org
. It can be viewed the following day by
clicking on “Breed Information,” then
“Search the Maine-Anjou Breed.”
NAILE ENTRIES
Please note when submitting entries for
the 2007 National Maine-Anjou show in
Louisville, Ky., the special rules
listed on page 145 of the premium book:
“Maine-Anjou total entry fees will be
$55 per animal, payable by Oct. 1, 2007.
The $25 per head North American entry
fee will be paid to the North American
office with the remaining $30 paid and
sent to the American Maine-Anjou
Association, P.O. Box 1100, Platte City,
MO 64079-1100.” The entry fee to the
AMAA office is also due Oct. 1, 2007.
FEE CHANGES
Effective Jan. 1, 2007. At the
board meetings held during the American
Royal in October 2006, it was approved
to change the fee from $15 to $20 when
adding a registered female from another
breed into the AMAA herdbook.
DUES REQUIREMENT
Animals cannot be registered or
transferred if either the owner or
seller is not an active member of the
AMAA. Therefore, if a buyer requests a
transfer from a non-member or inactive
member, the buyer will be charged for
the seller’s membership fee or annual
dues. The exception to this rule is if
all animals owned by that individual
(non- or inactive member) are being
transferred at the same time, so the
individual currently would not own any
cattle.
RUSH REQUESTS
Please note when faxing rush work, it
must reach our office by 3 p.m. in order
to be processed in that day’s work. If a
faxed rush is received after 3 p.m., it
will be processed the next business day.
