32nd Annual Louisiana Taxidermist Association Annual Convention & Competition

[MireTaxidermy]

I have made plans to attend this convention but since it is the first one I have no clue what I need to do to register my birds for the competition.  Do I contact Harry Vermaelen or just show up at the convention and register there.  I would appreciate if anyone could help me out.  Thanks!

I believe registration is either 35 or 45 for the wkend and it's 15 bucks per entry. Good luck to all who's going!!

I couldn't find a link, Looks like LTA page is down or something.
Maybe just call and see about the seminars. I think they are having a bird seminar saturday.

[Lee Duet]

Yes Cody bellanger and I are having a hands on seminar at 130 sat. We will be bringing 4 or 5 birds for everyone to work on.

[schenk]

Cool, i'll look forward to that seminar!
Do we need to bring birds or is it a help? Bring a fleshed bird washed up? I have a few extras in the freezer.

[Lee Duet]

No it's a help seminar this time if it all works out then maybe next year we will have everybody bring their own bird.I think we gonna do a flying,standing,swimming and hanging dead bird

[schenk]

Oh ok, well that will be great. Thanks for the info, lots of birds and learning going on in that one I imagine.
