| February Monthly Membership Meeting 2-25-18 | |
| By: Angela Fore Date: February 5, 2018, 2:10 pm | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| [size=12pt]Please join your chicken family for this month's | |
| educational meeting on 2-25-18 at the Mobile Botanical Gardens, | |
| 5151 Museum Drive, Mobile, AL 36608. The meeting will run from | |
| 3:00 to 4:00pm. We request that you begin arriving around 2:30 | |
| so that you will have time for fellowship and refreshments. | |
| Our February meeting topic is Baby Chicks 101. We will have a | |
| couple of presentations covering the basics of raising baby | |
| chicks and we will also have an updated handout for you to take | |
| home with you for your future reference. Then, Tracy McCarter | |
| will speak to us about what they have going on at St. Elmo Feed | |
| and Seed this Chick Season and answer questions about what | |
| breeds they have coming in over the next few weeks. Tracy and | |
| her staff have been kind enough to put together a basket of baby | |
| chick supplies that we will have a separate drawing for as well. | |
| Thank you Tracy, you are the best! Next on the agenda we will | |
| have Sarah Butterworth, the Mobile County 4H Agent speak to us | |
| for a few minutes about the upcoming 4H Chick Chain Program. | |
| Sarah will also have applications with her so if you are | |
| interested in your children participating in The 4H Chick Chain | |
| this year this a great opportunity to start the enrollment | |
| process. Last but certainly not least we will be starting a new | |
| monthly meeting feature entitled "Breed Spotlight." This month's | |
| Breed Spotlight will shine on Silkies. Karen Strickland will | |
| bring one of her Silkie hens and chicks so you will be able to | |
| see the breed up close and ask questions. After Karen's | |
| presentation we will ask you the audience a few questions about | |
| the day's presentations and you will have an opportunity to win | |
| some additional prizes. | |
| Of course we will have activities and goodies for our younger | |
| members, refreshments and as always door prizes to be given away | |
| throughout our meeting. Depending on how much time we have I | |
| would like to take a few minutes to ask you all what you type of | |
| topics that you all would be interested in seeing presented over | |
| the coming year. This is your chicken club and we want your | |
| input!! Your meeting homework is 1) Put the meeting on your | |
| schedule and come join us next Sunday! 2) Decide what topics | |
| you would like to see presented in the future. 3) Decide what | |
| delicious refreshment creation you are going to share with your | |
| chicken family. | |
| Our monthly meetings are for those who are paid members of | |
| MBABYCC. If you are not a paid member, we would love for you | |
| join our chicken family! The dues are 20.00 a year and that | |
| covers all family members living in your home. For your | |
| investment of 20.00 you can attend monthly educational meetings, | |
| two picnics a year, a Christmas party and other MBABYCC events. | |
| The link to fill out an application for membership and to pay | |
| online is: | |

| As always, our sweet Margaret Pinter, Hospitality Chairwoman, | |
| and her team will be on hand to check in club members and will | |
| have membership applications available for anyone wanting to | |
| join at the meeting. They will gladly answer any questions you | |
| may have and will help you join us if you choose to do so. | |
| Looking forward to seeing everyone next Sunday! Let's make this | |
| a great meeting! :) | |

| Hi Lisa!!! We hope to see you and your sweet family! Our | |
| traditional topic for February to coincide with the start of | |
| chick season is Baby Chicks 101. We have a couple of | |
| presentations on baby chick care and Tracy McCarter with St Elmo | |
| Feed and Seed will be on hand to speak as well. We are also | |
| going to start a new "Featured Breed presentation" where a | |
| member will bring in a chicken and tell us all about that | |
| particular breed. The audience will then have the opportunity | |
| to answer questions about the presentation and win prizes. I | |
| will post more details after our Board Meeting on Tuesday night. | |
| Looking forward to seeing y'all on the 25th! | |

| I can�t speak in front of groups! I get too nervous then can�t | |
| even speak! But if someone else wants to talk about them, I�m | |
| more than happy to bring one of our girls. | |
