I basically decided to stay out of this but your first sentence has really
irritated me. a large number of the old members - the ones who work their
buns off for the breed, donate money when asked. are there when the clubs
need them are unappreciated. so much so they are not being allowed to be on
committees and are being forced out of many areas of their expertise. I
hope there is a huge influx of new members that hit the streets running and
know exactly what to do because those old members just might not be
around to help out
Time to wake up and smell the flowers everyone
sally.
