Some of you may have forgotten so I will refresh your memories: A discount WAS offered this year to us regular folks. I, for one, took advantage--I paid my membership for 5 years, saving some $$$$$. Thanks GSDCA! Surely others did that too. Now I don't have to remember to pay it next year. or the year after that or, well, you get it. <G> Penny in NC The Farm Dog Forever Certainly it is being utilized by the White GSD INTERNATIONAL Org. as a great OPPORTUNITY...while the rest of us continue to pay the regular fee...and had NO SAY in this being started. And I do believe this "white issue" has been discussed for some time within the Board....and an INCREASED membership is part of their reasoning for a change in our Standard. SURELY someone thought of the results!!....?? Carolyn marhaven@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx www.marhaven.com ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2012.
