I think this is the Connie Beckhardt award? Looks like Pam Odell is in chargeof the committee that gives out this award! My question is how much influence or input can regular members have in selecting the winner of this award! And God knows I'm sure there is a criteria that must be met to to be eligible to receive such an award! And everyone I'm sure has their own valid reasons why they would pick their favorite candidate! and Gods knows there are probably many wonderful eligible candidates. I won't mention the wonderful breeder that I would choose because I would not want to embarrass her/him in such a public forum such as this! But my pick has bred a AM and Can GV and has breed conformation champions in three countries! I have only 26 days of membership left so I can have no influence on the winner for next year, but then again I don't have much of an influence on anything else ,lol and perhaps that's a good thing!
