This is the reply I received from Dania re the 25 year pins. This is a busy time of year for everyone but you will receive one. Tish In a message dated 12/2/2012 1:01:57 A.M.

Laura has been helping me to do this since the end of the year is busy-busy time with GSDCA renewals. This year Laura has been innundated with several other GSDCA tasks. Please do tell those that inquire that we will be sending certificates and pins before the end of the year. One thing that may be good to emphasize to all and seems hard for our members to understand is that 25 year pins only go to those celebrating their 25 year anniversary this year - meaning those who joined in 1987 and who have maintained continuous membership through the years. Thank you and...... hope you can make it to our December 9 shows - we'd love to see you. Dania ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2012.
