Yes, we have done this every year for quite a few years, and will of = course do it again this year.

The timing will be after all petitions are received, so that everyone = will have an equal opportunity to respond. Last year Ileana was one of the members of the committee who worked with Showgsd-l to bring this off. We will be happy to work with her again, = and to make this a joint project of Showgsd-l and The GSDForum if she wishes = to do that. =20 -----Original Message----- From: showgsd-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx = [mailto:showgsd-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Stormy435@xxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, August 11, 2007 9:39 PM To: showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Who is Russ Osburn - board candidate?
