Re: Show Categories vs Judges Handbook


All,
 
The Novelty Iris Society being chaired by Bonnie Nichols has been viewed favorably in concept by the AIS board of directors but has not been approved as a Section at this time.  They are making progress towards petitioning the board for Section status and hope to do so at the 2015 spring convention in Portland.  There is no change for 2015 affecting the AIS exhibition system.  The AIS Judges' Handbook is being reviewed for change by the Judges' Handbook Revision Committee chaired by Betty Roberts.  All suggestions for modification or change should be made to her for committee review.

I don't know where else to ask this so here goes.  Fresno Iris
Society has in their show schedule the category Tall Bearded and
within that one of the sections is "Novelty" and has been for years.
Well, the question has been raised - the Judges Handbook does not
have that definition but in 2014 AIS Board approved the "Novelty Iris
Society" and their definitions for it.

Okay, if the judges must use the handbook and only the handbook I
presume Fresno must cross off "Novelty" as a category and use "Other"
for anything that does not fit the rest of that section?????

We will be going over the schedule after the show to bring it up to
present day as best we can.
