Much is being discussed how the candidates can advertise themselves to the members. Think back before the days of computers ,email , web sites,and Lists. The 100 word Bio was initiated,not for people to brag,but to simply tell what they would be able to do for their club, We could not even run paid ads in our Review But the Board then okayed the purchase of membership labels if a candidate wanted to send out a mailing, Even though the club had larger numbers of members then ,people seem to know, and had paid attention through the years on who had done what, in contributing to the benefit of the GSDCA( like committee chairs) and people had distinguished themselves enough to be known. I think the candidates have plenty of time and places to make themselves known.
