January News
First and foremost, we hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season. We wrapped up 2023 with a lot to be thankful for. As we move into the New Year, we are eager to get ahead of the curve since the beginning of the busy legislative sessions are already underway. We have a great year ahead of us and we look forward to seeing all of you at the different shows coming up. Be sure to find our legislative alerts at the bottom of this newsletter.
We would like to extend our condolences
to the family and friends of Brian Barczyk.
Much fun was had at the Pomona show at the beginning of January.
What a way to get the year started off right!
Who wore it better?!
Thanks to Cal Zoo for the rad jacket.
Beautiful animals everywhere at Pomona!
These ladies were featured on KTLA Channel 5 and
got to showcase the cool creatures of the Pomona show.
