I remember years ago when Los Angeles was to get the nation. Debbie told
me then that they decided to put it off a year. I guess that was probably
ten years ago.
Look at the board members who can drive to St. Louis. I doubt that is an
issue, but it sure is a concern that after the membership voted to rotate
the national, it is ignored.
I am not going to criticize the board, they work hard for us, and I
appreciate all they do.
I like St. Louis. But, I will never show a dog at the National so long as
it is there. I don't have to go into the reasons, but there seem to be
enough people in the area to still have a show. At this point I don't plan to
go again, but I could change my mind.

There have been some good discussions on the GSDforum page on facebook for
the past several days about national
locations and the possibility 2017 won't end up west but at Purina
again...guess that will be a topic at the next board meeting
next weekend.
But another concern with the meeting coming up next weekend......why must
EVERY board meeting now be in St Louis? Used to be all over the country so
members in different area's could attend if they wished. There is too much
focus on St Louis.With the national being there several years in a row the
members should have the opportunity of a meeting within range to attend.
If the telephone conferencing access does not continue (have heard Carmen
will not allow this) then how do we stay informed when information is not
always forthcoming?
The coat and white issue got attention an_d info was widespread because
members attended via telephone conferencing and
got info first hand....it was not because the board dished that out to us.
SERIOUS concerns about the old school taking the reign again and we become
even littler people again....and no,I did not
vote for that.
I am glad we have some new members that will be difficult to put gag
orders on.........
