President’s Corner – April 2019

Well, it is about that time again; when we all head to Michigan for the English Toy Spaniel Club of America National Specialty.  As with the past several years, this years’ event will be held in Kalamazoo, Michigan as part of the Apple Blossom Cluster on May 23.  Both our Sweepstakes and Regular class judges’ are two breeder judges and long-time members of the Club, Diane Hill (KS) and Mr. Richard LeBeau (PA), respectively.  It is such an honor to be elected by our peer-group, members of the Club to judge this event and know that Diane and Rick are looking forward to May 23.

As you may know, the theme for this years’ event is “Shooting For the Stars”. Special thanks to member, Dawn Charley, for submitting the winning concept.  The artwork associated with this years’ theme is, once again, outstanding!   If you haven’t done so, please make sure to review and order some of the very cool “Shooting For The Stars” collectibles!  The list of items can be found on the landing page of the ETSCA website. 

Additionally, would like to report that Dawn Charley (OH) has been appointed to the ETSCA Board to fill the seat and serve the remainder of the term vacated by Mrs. Jane Naimark (PA).  The Board would like to officially thank Jane for her service to the Club.  Congratulations Dawn!  We look forward to your contributions!

Looking forward to seeing each of you in Kalamazoo!  Travel Safe!

Until next time,

Bruce
