Thank you to those GSDCA candidates who participated in the on-line questionnaire, a very informational tool to give the membership the opportunity to make an educated choice in the upcoming election. Also, thanks to Diane for putting together 15 pertinent and thought provoking questions for our candidates. Below is the announcement from Diane with permission to crosspost. Regards, Pat P.S. To our friends on the east coast, please keep yourselves and your animals safe. Your are in our prayers. --- Once again, the time to elect GSDCA Officers and Directors is approaching and it is incumbent upon ALL GSDCA members to use their votes wisely. Permission has been given by the administrators of this list to have a Candidates Page on the gsdshowlist's web site; thank you Tom Langlitz for putting together the web pages in under 24 hours. A comprehensive and identical set of fifteen specific questions was sent to D.D. Ardoin, â??Bartâ?? Bartley, Joe Beccia, Frank Fasano, LaMar Frederick, Laura Gilbert, Nadine Grady, Nancy Harper-Mulvaney, Fred Migliore, Carol Moore, James Moses and Pam O'Dell and they were given a specific amount of time in which to answer. We feel that it is necessary to post all responses at the same time because it precludes any one candidates from basing his or her answers upon the responses of another. This is a time for candid, honest and factual statements by those who wish to govern the GSDCA. Other GSD lists will be sent an announcement to invite their members to view this page. I will personally send this invitation to SHOWGSD-L, CHGSD and the GSDShowcase. If any of you are on other GSD lists, I urge you to cross post this post. The specific address of the candidates page is: _http://www.gsdshowlist.org/2010-gsdcacandidates.html_ (http://www.gsdshowlist.org/2010-gsdcacandidates.html) PERMISSION GIVEN TO CROSSPOST Thank you, Diane Diane Silver-Strasser ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2010.
