As AOE founder and Chair for over 20 years, I re-did the Certificates recently, adding a beautiful GSDCA Logo that had the dog in color plus added Frank's name at the bottom. I sent a copy to Frank and learned that this new Certificate had to be approved by the Executive Committee. Since the first one never was, who knew? The Executive Committee had me change some words, which I did, and were still unsure about the logo with color, thinking the red and white might be more "official." With the gold background on the Certificate, the gold in the dog logo, it was so beautiful the way it was, I disagreed. Now I am asked once again to change some wording, which again I disagree with and again they are talking about a red and white logo.........meanwhile, AOE Certificates cannot be mailed due to color of Logo and the word "premier". So many big things going on in life......I have to wonder........ I'm sure that some will be unhappy that I shared this with you but my frustration is just over the top........Executive Committee LanaLee Dean Wylie J. Moses Lew Webb Frank Fasano ask them why.....................................
