Finally, as the Marketing arm of the GSDC of the Pacific NW, I negotiated a sponsorship with Royal Canin for our 2 specialties. When I offered them a 20x10 space for their booth, catalog advertising, free lunches for their people, website advertising prior to and after the show for 1 year, they returned a positively GENEROUS eye toward us and came up with my suggested donation of $1,500.00 for the 2 adjoining specialties that will be held the same futurity weekend.
