It is  important that the GSDCA have a strong financial position and
adequate  reserves on hand to meet any future operating deficits or other
financial  needs.  I think the GSDCA board needs to make a decision
regarding the  level of monetary reserves that need to be on hand, set
those funds aside  (invested wisely) and then proceed to spend 100% of
their annual operating  revenues on the membership and the breed.  We are
a non-profit group  and we should not be in the business of creating
"profits" each year.   I hope the Budget and Finance committee will have
that discussion, make  those decisions, and spend our money to support
the membership and further  our breed.

Don't get me wrong - I'm not criticizing the bottom line of  the GSDCA
in 2006 and 2007.  I'm just suggesting that some serious  thought be
given to the level of reserves that we set aside vs spending our  dollars
to support our mission.  Maybe those discussions have taken  place
already - I'd be happy to hear that they  have.
