This whole change of venue for the National is very upsetting for West of the Rockies exhibitors... since we always seem to really support the National with entries in conformation, herding and obedience and have a very large presence just maybe all of us need to Boycott the St. Louis National. Then maybe the Board will consider a western location. I think the Board hears what we want, I just don't think that they care. I do believe that the Colorado National was one of the few in recent years that showed a profit. Isn't that correct Patty K?
