I wanted to update everyone on a few things. Please make sure to read them so everyone will be aware of the changes. Check the featured tabs at the top of the group. This is where this will be pinned.


1. On the hotel make sure you check in at check in time. If you don’t its possible your room, will be given away. I apologize for this, but this is the hotels rules.

2. Any entry that has placed (received an award at National or World level) will not be eligible to compete in GTA’S open competition.

3. Once documentation has been handed off to the competition desk (outside of the competition room) each competitor will have 10 minutes grooming period before the entry must be handed off to the Competition Committee to be placed inside the Competition Room.

4. On the Adult Collective Artist Award all participants must have a part in mounting 1 animal. Only 1 animal on the entry will be scored and habitat will not play a part of the scoring. This award is NOT ELIGIBLE for any other award except Adult Collective Artist Award. Only one award will be given.

Thanks,
Georgia Taxidermy Association
