Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] The time has come

I finally received a letter from the AKC. They recognize and appreciate  
what we are doing for the Juniors. Thanks to our board and their vote, the 
GSDCA  is also behind what we are doing.

I wanted to thank everyone who sent in a contribution.  Some of those  
donations I know where a struggle, and we all have felt the decline in  
finances, me as well. But, there are some things that scream out for a helping  
hand, and I wanted to mention how much I appreciate it.

I did decide to keep all donations secret. It is just because I know that  
everyone appreciates and recognizes the importance to our club the efforts 
of  our youth.  If you can't afford to donate, it does not indicate you do 
not  realize the efforts of the  kids.  There can be a number of reasons  why 
this year you needed to pass on the donations.  Next year is another  year.  
Next year I am going after sponsors as well.

I also want to thank all of you who have given me suggestions on how to set 
this up, what to award, how to gain the most advantage to the program, and 
thoughts about how to make it more effective. Since this is the first 
year, I  have settled on a plan, but may change it for next year.

Right now I have the commitment of Frank Fasano to send me the names and  
addresses of each Junior Handler entered in the Big Show.  I will mail to  
each of them a gold pin, to wear all during the National so we know they are  
entered and they can be proud of that pin.  If they fail to come to the  
National, they will at least have the pin to show they were entered.

I then have a gold medal on a ribbon for each class winner.  When the  Best 
Junior Handler is selected he/she will be given a large gold medal on a  
ribbon. Then at the After Show Dinner the Junior winner will be called up and 
be  given a plaque.

After the show is over, and I know the birth date of the Junior, I will  
purchase a United States Savings bond to mature on his/her 18th birthday. I am 
still working on the details, but it will be 100% of what has been 
received as  donations.

I was going to only give 75% to keep the bank account open, but instead I  
will make my 2013 donation to keep open the bank account for the next  
National.  None of the expenses will come from the donations, and 100% of  what 
you donate will go the winner of the Junior Handler competition.   Remember 
the corporation I set up is a non-profit, so all donations can be  deducted 
from your income tax.  

My intent is to show these kids how much we appreciate them, and to  
encourage them to enter and compete.

Be sure to go to the site and see who is now featured, and remember all of  
this is free to the Juniors, and the bios and the pictures are what we 
offer at  our expense.

I also want to thank my advisors Frank Fasano and Nancy McDonald. With all  
they do, they found time to help me with this project.
