Just  some History again. The WDA was originally a liaison type  of  
Committee of the GSDCA . They ,like any other committee,reported  to  our 
Board. We 
were  all on the same team,when I served as  President  of the GSDCA. Their 
Board met the same weekend the GSDCA  Board met. and attended  our Board 
meetings and our Board attended  their meetings.  When Carmen  became 
President of 
the GSDCA,he  chose to make them a separate entity from the  Parent 
club,and 
Bill  Collins was their President ,and registered the formation  in Denver 
as  
a separate club.. I've been a member of the WDA,since they first   formed 
as 
a committee and Fred Lanting was their President. Remember-  SchUSA was  
trying to replace us at the world union(WUSV) as the  Parent Club in 
America for 
the German Shepherd dog. Do to the work of  Julius and Anne Due, the GSDCA 
was  the FIRST foreign club to be  admitted to the WUSV.And I fully support 
sending  the WDA team to  Europe to represent  the GSDCA . The connection 
goes 
back many years  . Helen Miller  Fisher
