Just a side note.? I am involved with a club that has $9,000 to give to charities.? Each Board member has $1,000.? You know where mine is going and I am hoping to get the others on board as well to donate to PetPac.? We are not a huge club but we do make money on our events.? We are a non-profit club so a 9K surplus is not a good thing.? This money will go to worthy causes.? Many of you may be involved in similar clubs.? Please contact your BOD and see if they are willing to contribute to fighting AB1634.

This would be a good cause.? Though what Deb is saying is right on.? Nobody is saying Match Funds, just that we are a LARGE National Club, and even if everybody puts a check in a bucket and that whole bucket is sent to PETPac in the name of GSDCA, it would be a worthwhile effort.? Maybe GSDCA could match the Bucket fund!? Executive Session??? AHA!? A Fundraising Name...the GSDCA Matched Funds Bucket. I don't know how many regional clubs have donated to PETPac.? I know a few have contacted me for information and my suggestions ran 1! PETPac? 2. NAIA? 3.
