Cyndi is correct and I appreciate her bringing this up. The Centennial Celebration will be part of the 2013 National Specialty and is a separate event from the World Trials. The two events are back to back and an attempt is being made to schedule the 2013 national in such a way as to afford fanciers the opportunity to 'see/observe' at least part of the world trial competition or practice sessions, if THEY SO CHOOSE WITHOUT SPENDING MANY EXTRA DAYS TO DO SO. It is up to each individual to determine what they wish to do. The PC has established a 501(c)3 which will offer a tax deduction for those donating to the Centennial effort. We are planning a unique celebration to honor our club and our great breed. However, we WILL NOT OFFER EVENTS THAT ARE NOT COVERED BY SPONSORSHIP AND DONATIONS - Thanks Nancy Harper Centennial Chair -----Original Message----- From: showgsd-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:showgsd-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Cyndi Flautt Sent: Tuesday, August 09, 2011 4:53 PM To: Showgsd-l Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Sponsors It was explained to me that the Centennial celebration is a separate event from the World Trial. I was told that the Centennial celebration does have sponsors, but the world trial has none yet. If that's not correct, I'm sure someone will let me know!
