what about putting it in the owners laps. Questions could be put in a
questionnaire format, the owners of the GV/GVX would be mailed the
questionnaire and asked to fill it out and send a picture. Those that do not
respond their dog do not not get presented in the review. Either one GV/GVX
per month or two per month the review could give donate a page or two. Maybe
it could be the GV/GVX for the " designated year" featured each month.

Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] 15 Year GV
GVX, The Review, and stuff
I must say Evan and FB had me laughing all day!
Some hard truths and only
my opinion.
The Review is not generating enough
revenue to feature interviews and
pictures of every GV and GVX in past 15
years. It would take at least two
pages per; we are looking at at 59 pages.
(Scoop won twice). Taking this to
the BOD or Frank in July without a business
case is pointless. Last I read
the GSDCA is not a cash cow. <g>
That being
said; whether a separate publication or a Review feature; it will
take
volunteers to complete all the interviews. Easy enough to send
questions to a
volunteer interviewer for each GV GVX. Harder to manage and
make sure everyone
follows through!
Of those featured; a monetary commitment from the
owners/breeders/handlers
of those greats would have to be pledged. Looking at
the winners; many would
likely donate for the publication and could cover for
those who do not have
the means.
Featuring other greats is a wonderful
idea; but who will conduct the
interviews? What is the criteria to determine
who qualifies? A monetary
commitment would have to be mandatory for anyone
wanting to be part of the
publication as a former great. By invitation
concept.
Am I willing to tackle this? Only if Evan forms a committee and FB
gets Iza
to eat a rack of smoked ribs. <g>. I actually think this is
obtainable.
Not an overnight project; but a worthwhile one.
As always I
apprecIate Carolyn's posts. A voice of reason; and a true GSD
lover. Sure wish
she would run BOD. Sigh .....................
Sorry for the length of this
post. Next time FB gets an out of jail card he
needs to suggest someone else
to carry through his ideas! Ha ha
