That will make it the first Futurity of the 2008 Futurity Season........dogs will still be in coat! <G> Somehow......I am sure our Club members will work in some good food.........<G> Carolyn marhaven@xxxxxxx www.marhaven.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Sheila Lieberman To: showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, August 24, 2006 3:57 PM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: re What would You do to improve shows Miami and Ft Lauderdale are 'clustering' in hopes of drawing more entries. Orlando and Treasure Coast are working together and having their shows in the beginning of the January circuit, in hopes of drawing more too. I hope everyone will take note and join us all. I am sure Amy and Betty R will be plugging their shows, as I will be plugging for both my clubs. Dick Jones need say nothing, he knows how much I can talk. sheila Bokenkampgsd1@xxxxxxx wrote: There has been a lively discussion on another list I am on and how to improve shows. There have been many interesting ideas some very valid. If it were up to you - what would you suggest to make it more fun, even the playing field and get more participation? This may give some clubs some ideas. Our club, the GSDC of Beaumont, is having both a breed seminar and a junior handling seminar next year. We hope they are both something everyone will have an interest in and will partake. So, what do you all suggest?
