For our region, Sandi Douglas has had to go to the CFA Website to find out when clubs are holding their shows. If Clubs want to have their show dates reserved, you need to notify Sandi. We have very few show dates available. The CFA Central Office has requested Loretta to approve changes in show dates that Sandi and Loretta knew nothing about. Clubs had contracts with judges and show halls but Sandi had not been advised.
After a lengthy discussion of the policies for scheduling and reserving show dates, Dwight Vicars made a motion, seconded by Rachel Anger, that:
Norman Auspitz made a motion, seconded by Eve Russell, that the master schedule be updated on May 1st of each year.
Also, it is important that clubs notify the Regional Scheduler and Regional Secretary of changes in the show secretaries and club officers so that information can go out through email.
Toys for Rosettes Raffle.
ACE 50-50 raffle.
