This award bothers me. Although Brackett has been dead for years it is only very recently that the award was given out. I can personally think of a dozen people around who are very eligible for this award and have not won it. I can also think of several people who ought to get it in Memorium as it was not awarded during their lifetime.Personally I am beginning to agree with those who have refused to accept THE NOBEL PRIZE or PULITZER or an OSCAR people like Frank Lloyd Wright who once said "Never enter competitions" ----- Original Message ----- From: LeBrowngsd@xxxxxxx Date: Sunday, February 18, 2007 10:28 pm Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Lloyd Brackett Award To: irrenhaus4@xxxxxxxxxxx, showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > In a message dated 2/18/2007 5:38:31 PM Central Standard Time, > irrenhaus4@xxxxxxxxxxx writes: > From the Policy and Procedures Manual: Persons whose breeding > program > exhibits a vision of improvement to the breed, tempered with the > wisdom > to exhibit stric t attention to the Standard of the GSD.
