The
MBA celebrated its 75th Anniversary in 2008. It is therefore one of the oldest Area
Societies, and we believe one of the most progressive. Our membership is very active
within the fancy and are always willing to help others where possible. Our Committee
works extremely hard on behalf of our members and tries to greet everyone with the hand of
friendship.
There can be no
greater accolade than being elected President of the parent body the Budgerigar Society
and many of our members have been recognised in this way.
The MBA has been
at the forefront of many new ideas over the years. Our members have also achieved
great success on the show bench. One of our most recent successes was once again
winning the prestigious Premier Area Society Trophy at the 2009 Budgerigar Society Club
Show, with a very strong team. This is the third year running that we have won this award.
Can we make it four in a row in 2010?
We value both
our members and our history and traditions and I am very proud to be the Chairman of the
MBA and feel extremely honoured to have been the Associations President in 2001.
