Temporary Suspension For Select Judge and Show Rules Extended For 2021
PHJ release by: Elizabeth Lawhorn
The APHA Board of Directors has extended a pause in a set of judge and show rules for 2021 through the end of the 2021 show season.
In early spring 2020, the APHA Board of Directors temporarily suspended a series of judge and show management rules to allow shows to more easily hold their events and make last-minute changes in the fluid COVID-19 environment. At the end of 2020, APHA extended those temporary rule suspensions through June 30, 2021.
The APHA Board of Directors recently assessed the environment that their members were still facing around the world and determined that it benefitted a majority of APHA shows and exhibitors to further extend these temporary rule suspensions through December 31, 2021.
A full list of COVID-19 related temporary rule suspensions and safety recommendations can be found at apha.com/covid-19-updates/. Any questions about awards can be directed to showing@apha.com.
