we did NOT "lose" 60% of the "Futurity registration income."  those  who 
nominate under the guidelines of the Purina program do not pay a nomination  
fee - that is true - the nomination is free.  BUT, Purina subsidizes those  
litter nominations on the front end and then continues to pay incrementally 
on  those dogs shown, all the way through their championships.  the free  
nominations have been and are an incentive to get members to nominate their  
litters.  the number of litters nominated for the 2011 futurities exceeds  the 
number for 2010.  the number of nominations, to date, for the 2012  
futurities is almost double the number for 2011 at this same time last  year.
 
the plaque/no plaque issue has been addressed by carol, the futurity chair  
so i will not get into that here as there is no need.  the parent club  
makes $$ and the regional host club makes money on the futurities.  the  
statement above about losing money on registrations is not true.

years, or face the club going  under. We just got done losing  $200,000.00 
and  
look at  losing $51,000.00 this year, unless we cut out  a lot of  stuff.   
With 
the free registration of litters, we  lost  60% of the Futurity 
registration 

income.  But,  everyone wants to  keep  that.
