Welcome to the APA-ABA Youth Program
|
 |
Welcome to the APA-ABA Youth Program. The name of the
APA-ABA Youth Program is derived from the willingness of the American
Poultry Association and the American Bantam Association to sponsor this
program to further the education of youth in poultry. Although we are
not an actual part of the association we all work closely together to
promote our youth in the fancy. We are also closely associated with the
Southern Ohio Poultry Association who has graciously given us a grant to
support our program. We give our heartfelt thanks to all three
associations for their support and participation.

OUR PROGRAM |
|
The primary objective of our program
is to encourage and help our young members to acquire the
knowledge, skills and experience to participate fully and
effectively in the poultry fancy as an adult. That they will be
able to decide what types of fowl he/she wishes to raise, how to
select quality birds, how to house, feed and provide general care
for poultry. If a youth exhibits his/her poultry either in
production classes or fancy purebred classes that they understand
showroom procedures.
The program promotes opportunities to
practice showmanship, cooperation and fellowship and to be
involved with their home community and with the poultry fancy in
general.
The program challenges the youth to
study, engage in constructive activities, use his/her imagination
and to develop individual talents and abilities. |
