Judges at Grass Valley

Judge Misty Polisak is instrumental in the revival of  the Motherlode RBA and in charge of the annual shows.   

Jordan Miner is a young and coming new judge.

Allan Ormond is a well-known judge who travels all over the country.   Just a week prior to the Motherlode RBA shows, judge Allan was in Georgia judging a two-day show weekend.    He was scheduled to judge the North Carolina state convention the following weekend but unfortunately the shows have been cancelled due to the Covid-19 virus.

Doug King is King of Mini Rex, winning ARBA convention Best In Show in 2009 and Group in 2019.  He is also well traveled in and out of the country.

Lindsey Vaught is a remarkable young lady who has cumulated quite a list of accomplishments.  Being a young and coming judge is one item on that list.

Randy Shumaker is the big boss of the California/Nevada show circuit, putting on the majority of shows.  At Grass Valley he enjoys a lighter day being one of the judges instead of having to run the entire show.

Alan Rafferty is also fairly new in judging but already quite popular.   Tami comes to visit, while Kelly watches their interaction.   

The above photos taken by Casey may be the last batch of show photos in the next few months.   Due to COVID-19 virus pandemic, many locations have "Shelter in Place" orders, including the entire state of California.   Shows in March and April in California and the rest of the nation are cancelled, including but not limited to Angora National and the WCC.   We will try to put on interesting posts as much as possible but it is likely that we may run out of photos and topics.   If you wish to share pictures and stories with us, it will be much welcomed and appreciated.
