The clubs down here in Florida refunded entry fees last year during our course of 4 major hurricanes. The GSD club gave back 100% and the all breed club had mb-f issue refunds after they figured out their expenses. It was a partial refund. We were hit hard here, but nothing like Louisiana/Mississippi has had to deal with. I think those shows are the last thing on these poor peoples minds since most don't even have homes and possessions...........I know if you entered all 4 or 6 shows you are likely out $150 or more in entries, but frankly it's small compared to what the people have lost there. This devastation has hit all of us in someway.
