And Happy New Year back to you Zoe and a special hats off to the admins and all they do. Stormy needs a lot of thanks for so many reasons. As to the flyer, the fact you say you have never seen it and have been a board member for several years.....how has this come about? Who, if not the board (?????) can put the seal on something like this to go ahead? I too wondered about Laura's name being on there....and right, she should not be listed as first contact. If the flyer is about the breed and GSDCA I strongly, as a member,do not approve the representation. This needs to be discussed at the January board meeting.......can a board member on the list ensure that it is on the agenda? thanks for bringing it to our attention Linda........ Molly Trillia GSD's bokenkampgsd1@xxxxxxx Member GSDCC, GSDCA, GSDC of Beaumont, Life member CKC ---- Original Message ---- From: Doc Zoe <wynsum@xxxxxxx> To: showgsd <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wed, Dec 31, 2014 9:59 am Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] AKC Registration and GSDCA Flier and the Review There is something else totally wrong with the flier. Firstly, as of MIDNIGHT tonight, Laura will no longer be out COrresponding secretary - Joy Schutlz is. and that person does not do membership. Lastly, Membership is the Membership Chair and not the COrresponding secretary and that should have been listed first, not second if the purpose of the insert is to direct pet owners to become members of the GSDCA If this Board member had ever seen this insert, she would have pointed the above out. The Majority of animals registered are PETS of all sizes shapes and colours. The AKC wants to get them involved in their sports and MAKE MONEY. As for the Review, each month is dedicated to a different facet of our breed. One Month has the ROMS for example, August has the HIghest Living ROM DAM on the cover - and in 2013 and 2014 it was Liberia. The GSDCA is responsible for the breed - all facets. We represent the USA to the world as well. To me, the GSD is a GSD and the greatest breed in the World.
