My thoughts exactly. I believe it is penny wise and pound foolish not to run lots of educational articles and articles of interest int he club's magazine and not worry so much about the ads. If there was a reason to read it, more people might consider advertising. Right now most non conformation folks have little reason to even look at the magazine. There are far more GSDs outside the conformation ring than inside and there are lots of people hungry for information.

Would not like bi-monthly or no color - - but more interviews with judges, handlers, vets (what about an article on AI with Dr. Hutch or something like that), trainers - - all would be really useful to new people and possibley not so new? > From: ELG440@xxxxxxx > Date: Sat, 29 Jan 2011 17:33:15 -0500 > Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Right after lunch > To: Showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > > Gary is talking about ways to fix the Review problems.
