We've all had a lot of emails since the National regarding sites ,and some
regarding the time of year. You know our club is going on 100 yrs,so those
original By Laws were mostly enacted around 60-70 years ago Change of time
of year for the National has been brought up several times,even before this
past National. Lets face it,our weather all over the country has changed,
in these 60-70 yrs. In my own state of MN,we haven't had an Indian summer
for 3-4 yrs. I had to cancel going to the National,but felt very sorry
for the Performance people outside, and even inside, it looked very chilly.
We are supposed to be in a climate controlled building,but heating these
places has become prohibitive,I guess. Some of the posts suggested switching
to sometime in summer,when the entire family could come .and the kids
wouldn't have to miss school . We wouldn't have to worry about the changeable
weather. I think the new Board should at least consider the possibility. The
original reason for setting the National time restriction, was everyone
thought the dogs coats would be at their best,all through blowing and getting
winter coats. And that was the sole reason for picking the present date
restrictions. . I know we've had at least one in September. We might have had
two. Does anyone remember when we had it when Ted Beckhart was show chair,
and it was outside,Ernie Loeb did specials. I think it was New Jersey.
Anyway,I think with our unpredictable weather.the new Board should discuss
it. Helen Miller Fisher
