Hi
everyone from California. It is less than 4 months until the
ARBA Convention in Rhode Island. Kyle Cunningham and Willie
Davis are ready to do another outstanding job in sorting the
Flemish. Tammy and I are going to fly this year. The drive
from Camarillo to Rhode Island seems even a little much for two
people who have put a lot of miles on our van traveling from
California to the many different areas where major Flemish shows
are held. Fortunately, the 3rd Annual Flemish show
will be in Camarillo, California in April 2005. The WCFG is
currently working on preparations for the show and treating all
attendees to an outstanding weekend.
I
recently received my convention catalog. I want to congratulate
the Rhode Island group. The catalog is excellent and they went
the extra mile to help us secure Kyle and Willie as judges. We
were forced to make a late change to our judging lineup and they
were willing to accommodate our late request for a change in
judging assignments.
The 2004 Sweepstakes is almost to an end. The leaders with
reports submitted as of 08/04/04 are as follows: Bob & Kathy
Bomia, MI – 18,444; Frank & Judith Welch, PA – 12,891; Bob &
Lynn Bolyard, MI – 11,969; Jan Van Etten, NY – 11,815; Clouse’s
of Indiana – 11,662; Dwight & Marge Westercamp, IA – 11,174;
Will & Christi Sutton, MO – 7,942; Allen & Tammy Bush, CA –
5,865; Jack & Hazel Langley, TX – 5,497; Green Lane Rabbitry, PA
– 4,671. Good Luck to all that promote our “Gentle Giants”.
The youth Sweepstakes is also nearing an end. The leaders with
reports submitted as of 08/04/04 are as follows: Danielle
Souster, WI – 3,305; Tamra Lewis, IA 3,220; Chris Fleming, CA –
3,035; Wil Wilfong, CA – 2,442; Kerry Harris, MI 1,877.
TAMMY
AND I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING MANY OF YOU AT A SHOW REAL SOON.
PLAN ON ATTENDING THE ARBA
CONVENTION IN PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND.
DO NOT FORGET IT IS A “DOUBLE
SWEEPSTAKES SHOW” IN THE OPEN AND THE YOUTH.
