A bit of a different perspective from the pedigree Database site: Cynthia
"The 2013 WUSV was not a WDA event .. it was a GSDCA event ( please read the
original announcement of the 2013 WUSV ). The WUSV was held in the USA to
commemorate the 100 year anniversary of the GSDCA and the GSDCA was the host
not the WDA. The WDA and Mr. Yee got saddled with all the work however but had
to report back to the GSDCA for permission to do everything so how could that
go wrong or slow down getting anything done?? So at the last minute always ..
Mr. Yee and the WDA had to burn the candle at both ends to get everything
ready because the GSDCA really didn't care that much about getting things done
for "their" event which is what the 2013 WUSV was. The WDA pulled the WUSV off
and did a good job as proclaimed by everyone but the GSDCA is now complaining
that Mr. Yee used too much ammo in winning the war. He could have split the
bullets and saved on ammo had he just planned better and asked permission to do
everything six months in advance
as the GSDCA wanted. When the indians are killing everyone on the wagon train
( no disrespect to Native Americans ) and burning down the fort everyone is
happy to see the calvary come to the rescue. However after the poor citizens
are saved from scalping or death and sit safe and happy .. then when they get
the bill for the ammo, horse feed, and food for the troopers spent for the
operation they quibble over how much was spent in saving their sorry asses.
The GSDCA wanted to be the host of the 2013 WUSV and knew it was coming to them
for several years well before Dan Yee was President of the WDA. Yee and the
WDA ran the event and got it done for them and now they want to squeal like a
pig about what it cost .. priceless!! It was not the WDA's event and it was
not Yee's decision for the GSDCA to host the event in 2013 .. that was all the
GSDCA and Yee just got caught in a situation where he had to make the event
happen despite not being in charge or
handling the check book. After the event was successfully done by Yee and the
WDA the GSDCA is complaining about what it costs .. if Yee had saved $100K and
the event had been a horrible screw up would the GSDCA be happy or have taken
responsibility for not allowing Yee to spend the money needed to make the event
a success?? The GSDCA considers the GSDCA-WDA to be part of the GSDCA (also in
the GSDCA president's letter) but they don't want to pay for the costs of the
WUSV 2013 because the WDA did not get prior permission to spend the money
necessary to make the event a success. By the way the WDA has continuously (
the words of the WUSV president ) been a member of the WUSV just as long as has
been the GSDCA and the USCA."

Mary,
I welcome with OPEN ARMS all members of the WDA that want to
join us,
absolutely!
I feel terrible for the membership of the WDA.
I know that they are as
blindsided by this
as the rest of us. Yet another one of Dan
Yee's schemes...among many.
I send my best regards and utmost respect to the good
members of the WDA.
Kathy
