Joan--Since we ( GSDC of Mpls& St. Paul ) are hosting the Midwest Futurity,a letter was sent to our Show chairman Verna Kubic by Carol Moore with a copy of another club's solicitation for us to copy& send out to regional clubs in our area and asking that all clubs hosting Futurities this year do the same . Our club has not made a decision on this ,but I was responding to your email re club solicitation.
