Members and Friends:Well, here we are already into November and the Holiday season upon us. The

urry of activity which the Board has been involved in since last April seems

to have subsided for the moment, but from what I can tell, our Committees arediligently working like well oiled machinery! Many thanks to the dozens of members who all work to make the Club what it is.We have received from AKC, their response concerning our proposed bylawamendments. As a result, the Board is working on some additional revisionsbased on the AKC recommendations. Seems like a never ending project at this point, but soon we expect to re- submit the proposed amendments to AKC, and hopefully to the membership before the end of the year. We plan to distributethe amendments so that members will have an “item by item” vote, as the

changes are many. That said, I’m condent that we will end up with a quality

set of updated bylaws after all is said and done. I have checked with other Committees, and there is ongoing work on the new Illustrated Standard, and the Judges Training program is being revised byScott Wolfe with assistance from Gina Weiser to whom we owe a debt of grati-tude. We expect some extraordinary results from the PCA Education Commit-tee which will encompass new breeder, public and judges education programsand information.I’m sure you all have noticed the wonderful changes that have been made tothe Website by Lisa Wolfe. Soon we will have the 2009 Show in our thoughtsand plans, and Glenna and her Committees are already in full gear!Wishing you all the best in the coming holiday season….and at the shows! Jack MacGillivray,President
