ACDCA News - Board Votes - New Members 2005

Report from the Vice President, Ingrid Rosenquist

Welcome all! I hope this past fall and winter treated everyone well and that this spring offers the promise of time outside enjoying our dogs. As you can see the Quarterly is again looking fantastic and gets better and better with every issue. This is a testament to not only Denise and Lynn for all the extensive hours that they put in to the Quarterly but also for all the individuals who support the Quarterly through subscriptions and ads. This magazine would not be possible without your support.

This winter has unfortunately been eventful for me. My young male, Finn, has been in and out of veterinary hospitals since December with a yet to be determined kidney problem. This has been draining both time-wise and emotionally and unfortunately, I have not accomplished many of the goals I had as vice-president. For this I apologize to the membership. I have to also thank the committee chairs for being understanding of my current situation.

At the current time I am working with the AKC to produce the year end standing printouts that the membership approved at the AGM last year. There has been some confusion but it looks like we are getting it worked out. Pam and the rest of the crew in TN have been doing a spectacular job getting ready for this year’s specialty and I sincerely hope that all of you can make it. It promise to be a great time!
