Have you ever thought of the benefits of becoming a Regular Member of ACFA??? The advantages? The perks? The savings? If you haven’t, please take time to read the following:
ACFA Bulletin:
Every Regular
Member of ACFA receives a copy of the ACFA Bulletin, published 7 times a
year [bi-monthly plus the October Election Issue containing the
candidates, issues and ballot for voting], keeping you abreast of the
latest happenings in ACFA through: articles of interest; notification
and explanation of any amendments or additions to the Show/Registration
Rules, Bylaws or Standards of Perfection; current Show Calendar and much
much more.
Parade of Royalty:
The
ACFA Parade of Royalty [POR] is our Annual Yearbook provided to each
Regular Member. The POR is a 100+ page bound book honoring the
Inter-American and Regional Winners of the past ACFA Show Season.
Photographs of the top Inter-American Cats, Kittens, Alters and
Household Pets are displayed. There are also articles of interest to
the Cat Fancier; statistics from the Show Season, a Grand Avenue
Section, a Judges Section, a Friendly Faces Section and the list goes
on. This book sells to non-members for $30.00 but is included in your
Annual dues at no extra charge.
Voting Privileges:
ACFA is run by
its Members. Members dictate the future of the Association, not
the Board of Directors or the Clubs or Committees. The Members elect
who will represent them on the Board of Directors; the Members suggest
and ratify any amendments to the Rules of the Association; and the
Breeders/Exhibitors of a particular breed vote on their Breed Committee
and on any changes to their respective breed’s Standard of Perfection.
Discounts:
If your cats are
currently registered with another association and are not Litter
Registered with ACFA, we can register them with the proper information
from the other association - plus - you receive a 50% discount off the
cost of the current registration fees - if you register 12 or more cats
at the same time. In addition, as a Member of A
CFA,
you may also register your cattery name with us for $25 off. All other
registrations are offered at a reduced price for Members … check out our
Price List.
