I will take it one step more than Tom. List members who are not GSDCA members are potential members I totally agree. However, List members who are not GSDCA members BUT who show at our national and our shows MUST be heard too. Remember without the exhibitor we have no show, no Regional Club, no Parent club. However all of you who are not members of the GSDCA please join and not only will your comments matter so will your vote.
