No.........when a specialty does their show in conjunction w/ the AB shows they get a few dollars per dog. Maybe they provide a few trophies. The AB club hires and pays for the super, stewards etc. Kathy, member GSDCA, DVGSDC Celebrating generations of Dual Titled TC'd Champions visit _http://www.pinehillgsds.com/_ (http://www.pinehillgsds.com/) In a message dated 5/14/2010 2:16:41 P.M.

Time to start thinking outside the box!!! _________________________________________________________ Carolyn, FOUR SHOWS & TWO SPECIALTIES sounds great to the exhibitor...........but what about the people who are putting them on? The same people will have to do all 4 shows. Specialty clubs are folding because fewer new people are entering dog shows and the current members are aging. Find me the box, please! viv ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2010.
