So wait a minute..........it the ballots were not ready before Tish left for Germany, how in the world was she supposed to proof read them? And more importantly, who did proof read them? I think there is a lot of finger pointing but I see very few people saying what needs to be said: there was a mistake, it was identified, and Lanalee in her position as VP along with the Board took care of business. Thanks to Lanalee for her speedy response. I havent seen any ballot in any color, so its all french to me <G> * Ileana * Inquest GSD's, Home of : Sel AM CH & CAN CH Karizma's Cacique of Inquest aka DEXTER Kaleef's Expensive Date (major pointed) aka JACKIE Inquest Huckleberry Fun - That Hot Black Dog aka HUCKS Inquest Doc Holliday - aka DOC and Bunny, aka Her Majesty, aka THE BOSS In a message dated 9/8/2010 8:55:21 A.M.

Are people not proofing (is anyone proofing ?) or what... Just seems unnecessary and in a time when the club is strapped for cash, it seems that being a little more careful with such material would be more cost effective. Anyone out there have an answer? Unfortunate,this always falls on the President's shoulders. At a time like this,with the ballots coming out,the President should have checked everything personally, before leaving the country It will be costing the GSDCA $3500 to send out new ballots. Old ballots won't be accepted, Bart's name was left off and D.D. Ardoin's Biography left off , VP Lanalee and Excec Committee checked with AKC Helen Miller Fisher ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2010.
