It probably took us 5-6 champions before we ever received a championship pin. We sent off copies of AKC registrations, AKC certificates, etc. over and over again! No pins would arrive! After having 12 champions a pin and certificate arrived in the mail today courtesy of Laura Gilbert. We did not request it......she just sent it!!!!!!! Big kudos to Laura for her thoughtfulness and job well done! This is EXACTLY the way things should operate! Thank you so very much, Laura!!!!!! When Blanche Beisswenger was alive,she always researched and sent the pins automatically. When she died . The duties as Corresponding secy was spread among 6-7 different people,most of who never realized how much EXTRA Blanche did. I took over the Hero dog for her,. I think we were spoiled by her precision and excellently of the job. So I'm glad the Ch pins problem has been solved Helen Miller Fisher **************Create a Home Theater Like the Pros.
