1992, Ocean Blue Resort, QLD

In 1992, the National Show was hosted by South Queensland at the Ocean Blue resort, all activities held under the one roof, again left us southerners envious at the venues that are available in Queensland. One demerit point was the overcrowding for fanciers wishing to view the exhibits after the judging was completed.

The Council formally approved the four day format for the championship show as follows:

Friday: reception and registration
Saturday: Judges Exams and Judges Meeting.
Colour and Standards Meeting
Sunday: Championship Show
Monday: ANBC Meeting

The format for the variable classes would be:

1993 Dark factor Blue (cobalt mauve or violet)
1994 AOSV Opaline
1995 Albino
1996 Spangle AOSV
1997 Dark Factor Greywing
1998 Black eyed White
1999 Crested

Western Australia to provide a demonstration class of Crested Budgerigars at the 1994 ANBC Championship Show.

The council approved the issue of special ANBC Judges Badges, to be issued to all successful candidates.

The council has referred a request from the BCV to have a standard for double factor spangles to be considered.

A motion to have two classes for the yellow face blue i.e. Australian and English was defeated for the second year in a row.

A suggestion for a National Logie was dismissed as most member bodies wished to retain their autonomy in this regard.

Cheetham Rural as the major sponsors have requested that a show be staged on the Saturday to give them maximum coverage. This was agreed upon by all member bodies as this was happening at present.

Mr Bruce Bradford from Sydney was elected as The National Secretary.
