All of the information is not presented below by Ken.
Yes, Debbie presented Purina but I for one had never been there (I believe  
this held true for other Board Members). I sure liked the idea of a no cost /  
low cost Purina site but with out seeing it I was not comfortable with voting  
for it. I could not vote for Purina on the schetchy information relative to  
total facilities as it would pertain to our breed being competed in Oct or  
Nov.
The vote to me then boiled down to either Beaumont, Tx in 2006 or St  Louis 
where we had been. I voted for St. Louis. I'd love to see Purina but to  date 
it has not been scheduled by Debbie for a visit.
I for one as a Board member will look forward to visiting Purina as  part of 
the 2006 Nationals, regardless of the scheduling.
 
The Not One Board Member Voted for Purina just exhibits a prudent but  
reasonable approach on the part of the Board members who voted for St  Louis. 
Remember that it was only one more than voted for Beaumont for  2006. To me it 
did 
not exhibit a dislike of the Purina facility. Had the St  Louis vote been split 
with Purina, we'd be holding the 2006 Nationals in  Beaumont, TX rather than 
Beaumont in 2008.

On 6/6 Lew Bunch wrote to the list/s:
"I have presented Purina Farms to the Board as a show site, it is  free, all 
the venues except Tracking can be on site and Tracking is 10 minutes  away.  
We  would not have to charge for seating, grooming, crating,  anything.  We 
could have a dog show and yes it would be outside, you  would have to bring 
your 
own lawn chair and an umbrella in case it rains, but  folks, IT WOULD BE A DOG 
SHOW. " 
Then Tish responded to Lew on 6/6:
"I  could be wrong but my recollection is that not one Board member voted for 
this  site when presented at the July Board meeting last year."
Tish:  You  have a very good memory.  In fact, Debbie Hokkanen presented FOUR 
 proposals to the Board, one of which was Purina Farms.  The Purina Farms  
location would have been very inexpensive for the club and the membership,  
however, as you state "NOT ONE BOARD MEMBER voted for Purina Farms including  
those who supposedly wanted to go there.  Regards, Ken  Downing
