The original members of this committee were, Lamar Stephenson (credited as the father of the organization) who represented the ABA and was the first executive secretary, Glen Cryer represented the ABA and was Chairman of the committee, Bar- bara Piper and Al Watts both repre- sented the APA. Once a plan was in place, Larry Peterson, President of the ABA, and Bart Pals, President of the APA were added as committee advisors and David Adkins representing the Southern Ohio Poultry Association came on board financially sponsoring the program. Without the hard work of this group of people the vision of a poultry club for young exhibitors may not exist. We owe them a debt of gratitude for their fore- sight.

Every breed will be listed in one and only one class. Breed: Within each class will be several breeds. Each breed will have specific characteristic(s) that differentiate it from all other breeds. One example of a breed is the Plymouth Rock. Breeds will differ in shape, feather characteristics, comb and other attributes. Some breeds originated for meat pro- duction, some for egg production, oth- ers originated from Asian or European fighting cock stocks, while a few breeds were developed for ornamental qualities. The Standard of Perfection and Ban- tam Standard will provide information on breeds, their characteristics and history. Variety: Here you can see row after row of waiting to be judged.

APA MISSION STATEMENT To promote and protect the standard-bred poultry industry in all it’s phases To continue the publication of the American Standard of Perfection with the breed and variety descriptions for all the recognized fowl. To encourage and protect poultry shows as being the show window of our industry, and education for both breeders and public, and a means of interesting young future breeders in taking up poultry. To assist, encourage, and help educate the junior poultry man to the sound and practical value of standard-bred poultry, and pure breeding. Toward these goals the APA supports sanctioned meets at poultry shows all over the US and Canada, including an Annual meet and a Semi-Annual meet. Individual members can earn points at these shows toward becom- ing a Master Exhibitor as well as receiving awards from the association. The APA publishes a quarterly newsletter and an annual yearbook. The newsletter is sent to all members and the yearbook is sent to individual members and Endowment Trust members. The yearbook features many different articles, membership listings, advertisements, APA licensed judges and master exhibitor information.
