There has been a ton of rhetoric for weeks about why you shouldn't vote for this one or that one for one reason or another. This is not going to be another of those posts. What this is, instead, is a request that you give serious consideration to someone who has always worked hard in the background for the breed and for the GSDCA. I whole heartedly endorse Gail Hardcastle for the office as President. Gail is someone who has maintained a position of honesty and integrity and almost always with a small warm smile in the process. Those of you that have attended the Nationals know that Gail is unfailing in dealing with ticket mix ups, honoring table seating requests at the dinner, trying to do the best for everyone with the ringside seating and the myriad of SNAFUS, and always with an efficient quiet demeanor. Gail has a good background in business, accounting and dealing with a spectrum of personalities. The only thing at which I've found Gail to fail miserably is tooting her own horn. I fear that this failing will cause members who haven't been around since dirt was young (like me <G>) to overlook voting for capable of returning our club to smoother sailing. PLEASE CONSIDER CASTING YOUR VOTE FOR MATT'S MOM. You won't regret it.
