I am doing this. I am interested in conformation. I am not a club, I am not a committee. I have another life, and I am not trying to please everyone. A few years back I wanted to video tape some of the giants of our breed. I was thinking of Joan and Fran Ford, Ernie Loeb, Gloria and Cappy, Dave Rinke, Bob Penny and others. I planned to do it on my own, at my expense, and on my time. I was convinced to bring in a couple of other people. They then went to the board and got a grant of money. Then they proposed a bunch of "giants" I had never heard of. I withdrew so that they could do it how they wanted, and nothing happened. I will decide with my two board members what we are doing. It will be for the conformation winner at the national. We may modify that, but at this point, I need to limit what I can do. In the future others can go in a different direction. After I die, the two remaining members can do something different. How long can that be? This is why I did not propose the GSDCA do this. I don't want decisions by committee. Whoever we offer the money to, can always decline. Evan L.

Those kids do not usually have classes of their own. They have to compete against the adults. It would be a way to give them reconnection in their sport. ===========================================================================POST is Copyrighted 2011.
