There was a discussion at the last meeting in regards to futurity judges
proposed by clubs and
I have been thinking it through for the past week ....the more I do, the more I
am feeling annoyed.
So, for those that did not tune in..............when a club hosts a futurity
they propose their slate of
judges .....when I was chair in 07 we had to put 5 names in, now apparently it
is 3.
The clubs should have the right to propose who they want as long as though
judges meet the requirements
to judge a futurity.
At the last meeting in a certain region the #1 judge proposed was discussed by
the board and THE BOARD felt
this judge should not have that assignment because they may have breed some
dogs in the area.
This is someone who has judged a futurity before, is not a licensed judge (yea
to breeder judges only) and I believe the
winner in the region the person judged went on the a victor/victrix title at
nationals.
Point here......there is a point where the board MUST step back and stop trying
to micromanage everything. The clubs
should have the right to pick who they feel will best suit them, and the board
should approve that AGAIN providing that
person is qualified to judge.
Uncle Sam doesn't need to have a finger in every pie.....................
While the futurity shares profits with the PC it is a club function and the PC
needs to take a huge step back on this one.
So, what do you think?????
