Motion 2: Nationals T Shirts

AsSubmitted by Christine Hutchison, Merchandise Chair

Jenna Buchenauer did the t-shirt design and the cost of the design will again be my donation to the club. The theme is Evolution. We wanted the t-shirt to be a progression from the previous t-shirt of the Lionhead in the torch. This current design signifies the evolution from flamed Lionheadto flameless lionhead and in my opinion also supports the evolution the breed makes through the presentation process and in turn continues to support both the breed and Theresa and Cheryl through the presentation process.

The price of the t-shirts have gone up by one dollar, so my committee and I feel it is fair to move that cost on to the price of the

t-shirts. Therefore SML XL would be $13, 2X $14 and 3X $15. We have come up with a light gold t-shirt with black print.

RESULTS OF MOTIONS -April 25, 2012

Motion 1: Sweepstakes Rules Change

Cheryl Rafoth, Sweepstakes Chair, has requested a change in Sweepstakes Rule 11 and Rule 12 for the Sweepstakes.

The committee feels it is time to move to accepting only copies of Exhibitor After-Show Reports, rather than the individual comment cards, that can be easily obtained and filled out falsely or incorrectly. The sweeps counter spends many hours each month trying to determine that the comment cards are legitimate, not sent twice,and contacting the exhibitor to get missing information and verifying shows. We feel it is not her job to find missing information or that she should have to work to verify the information. An Exhibitor After-Show Report would indicate that an animal was shown at a specific show and the placement it received. Show secretaries are required by ARBA to send out show reports within 30 days of the show. The NALRC allows 60 days for the report to reach the counter. We do know that in a fewinstances a show secretary may not send Lionhead breeders a show report. In these cases, the completely filled out comment cards would be accepted.

11 existing rule) It is the owner's responsibility to send a clear copy * of the Official ARBA Remark Card used by the show * or an Exhibitor Show comment card * or an Exhibitor-after-show report from the show's secretary for the show at which you want your points counted. Send to the Lionhead Sweepstakes Counter.

11 proposed change) It is the exhibitor’s responsibility to send a copy of the official Exhibitor After-Show Report for the show at which they want the points counted. Send to the Lionhead Sweepstakes Counter. In the instance where a show secretary does not send out exhibitor show reports, the NALRC sweepstakes counter will accept comment cards that are completely filled in.

12 Existing Rule) Remark card copies must be postmarked within 60 days of the date of the show. (Copies of your remark cards or after show completed reports must be received in the mail - we need a hard copy). The following information must be filled in:

12 proposed changed) Exhibitor After-Show Reports must be postmarked within 60 days of the date of the show. Copies of the completed show reports must be received in the mail so that a hard copy can be retained for one year.
