I can assure you I do NOT support moving Fut/Mat finals to Tuesday.
The membership loves Futurity/Maturity finals. It is a favorite class for
many.
It will hurt The Regional Tuesday show. Exhibitors will now just come for
judging Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Having an entire day for education in
between will hurt entries.
Puppy Classes will now have to be moved to Thursday morning; which will make an
incredibly long day.
Many members have already made plans. Reservations, request for time off,
budgeting. Adding another 1-2 days expenses is not fair. It will also add to
the cost for judges rooms, food, etc.
Education is wonderful at a Regional or local level. We also can have online
education via GSDCA website. Many do not want to spend the National week
attending lectures. I think the Chili Cook Off last year proved members want
to have fun.
The Fut/Mat IS an educational event. Showcases regions, breeders, sires, and
dams.
The membership was NEVER asked what subjects would interest them. The
membership was never asked if dedicating an entire day to education was a
"want."
Prior membership polls have clearly shows the MEMBERSHIP thinks The National is
too long. Gail has done an excellent job shortening the days and giving us
time to relax and have get together's after judging. We wan to spend time with
friends from across the county; not sit our butts in chairs a full day!
Just a few reasons .......

Have heard that the Fut/Mat finals may be moved to Tuesday after the regional
show which will leave ALL DAY Wednesday for
educational programs. Puppy classes would be moved from Wed to Thursday. The
board is suppose to be discussing this at the
upcoming board meeting this weekend.
So, unless you are wanting to get involved in the educational programs, there
would be a full down day in the middle of the week.
Personally, I think there would be fewer show up to support the
futurity/maturity program. Many would end up not coming in until
Wed night which would cut some revenue down for the hotels and area.
Thoughts? Me, am not for this and may shoot a quick message off to the board
prior to the meeting.
