Hope whatever is best for everybody works out… it’s a 2 hour drive (over the
mountain <G>) Sacramento to Reno, point to point.
I’d go :-) 7 hour drive for me <G>

This subject is being discussed on A Facebook thread. Chris Loomis called
Delta and United and was told that their air busses in and out of Reno CAN
accommodate 500, 600, & 700 crates... I am certain the Board will research
and find out for sure, but maybe some things have changed in regard to
possibilities....?

Would love to have a National in Reno.....but it is not an accommodating
airport for
# 500 crates. None of us can get a dog in or out of Reno in a # 500....to
or from just
about anywhere??. They would have to fly into the Bay Area to make it work.
Hope they listened to Helen's request.
Wonder why handlers can no longer Judge Futurities after 2017? Most Clubs
have
re-cycled most of the Judges by the time we all put on two shows a year with
all the
shows within a day driving distance. In the case of our Shows in
Sacramento.....we
use four judges for that weekend.
Did the handler judges not pull good entries this year and last? I never
really kept
track or paid attention.......?

Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: The Board Meeting
I listened to most of the meeting. I was driving for most of it; so what I
heard is high level and not the details or facts.
The audio was very poor during budget and finance. Once the microphone was
fixed; the conference call worked very well.
Next on the agenda was Futurity Maturity.
A motion was made by Pam to wait until January to make any decisions on our
Fut Mat system. Kathy Potter has stepped down as chair; Karin Wagner will be
working with Joanne I.
Motion passed unanimous to delay until January. Then the BOD continued the
Fut Mat discussion. Some items did not pass; others did pass, and some were
tabled for new chair and committee.
Passed: Starting in 2017 handlers will no longer be able to judge. Passed: A
new fee schedule was set for nominations.
The Fut Mat was very long and took up most of the morning into lunch.
Discussions about the Review. Passed: The Review will be offered standard
mail and also digital. Rates were discussed for members paper, digital, or
both.
Gail presented numerous National sites. Some were too costly. Sacramento,
Del Mar, Reno are being considered. Passed: Gail will visit Reno. Helen
requested Gail make sure airlines can take dogs and 600 Crates.
Dual Award will now recognize barn hunt, dock diving, lure coursing.
Morton spoke in detail about working dog, SV.
Lew discussed marketing strategies and ways to improve visuality and
interest.
At the end of the meeting Frank thanked the BOD for embracing all venues
related to the GSD.
Again; I was driving not taking notes. IMO the "tone" of the meeting was
cooperative and addressed a good number of issues important to members and
the club.

I was unable to catch much of it as I was driving (and had it on a lousy
speaker), at a meeting, then back driving. But it appears that many
decisions were made about the Futurity system, the membership/Review/online
Review and the National.
Many of our listers here are not on Facebook. Hopefully, some of the
highlights of the Meeting thus far can be posted.
Thanks
