It’s show time again... It sure is fun to get out there with our new puppies, isn’t it?
It is election time. Remember to talk with your DD to make sure he/she will run again. If you want to run for District Director or any position – email the other members in the district so they know you are willing.
IT is never too early to get ready for the CHRISTMAS issue of the BULLETIN.
Best AD bargain in town. Give yourself an early present. Contact: Donna Walle [email protected] or Karen Soeder
[email protected] If you have members in your club or CCA members that you haven't
seen in a while - call them today to make sure they are okay. They will love hear-ing from you. Same goes for some of you who haven't been out to the shows or to club meetings - call your DD and report in so we know you are out there running through the bushes.
Make your reservations for Springfield 2014!
Pati
Well, sitting here as the heat passes over me, hopefully nearing the end of this heat wave and the cool temps of fall coming soon for us all. The fall show season is beginning and so we’re off and running to enjoy the chase of wins and ribbons, good luck to you all.
With fall approaching comes reminders of the events coming for the CCA….the elections, the renewals, the Good Sportsmanship Award nominations, and reservations for CCA 2014. Get your stamps ready for mailing in your votes and confirmations.
Election Reminder – anyone wishing to run for district director please notify the members in your district that you are willing to run for office.
Mikki Dorsey, [email protected], will be putting out the CCA Calendar again this year, don’t forget to order your copy in advance as they will make great Christmas presents. Check out the merchandise for CCA 2014, as another good idea for Christmas. Contact: Pat Yeager, chair, [email protected] for more details.
Please get your change of address information immediately to Lori Montero, chair, [email protected], as we will need everything to be as current as possible for mailing of your election ballots and renewal notices.
Have a great fall….good luck at the shows,
Janie

Library of Champions Vol. VIII The Editor Karen Anderson, is working feverishly on the next volume of the LOC. She needs to have your photos ASAP for your Collies that finished their AKC Championship during the year 2004 - 2010. We want this book to be complete with no Collies left out. This is a permanent record and is the history of our breed. You can either snail mail or email you photo (300 dpi) to Karen. Please include the sire, dam, breeder(s), owner(s) as of the year the dog finished. If you mail the photo, please include a SASE to return your photo. We are trying to contact people personally, but you may be missed. So please take it upon yourself to make sure your dog is included in this great part of Collie history. If you have any questions, either email or call Karen at the con-tact information below.

Aces in all 4 suits are $250 and the 2 Jokers are $150 each. A short line of type is included on each card that could be the dog’s registered name or something like “Gracie, Queen of our hearts” or “Jumping Jack Flash” or “Laddie is a 10 to me”.
We are accepting card reservations at the CCA’s table at the 2013 Na-tional. You can also check out the 2014 National page on Facebook or email Laura LaBounty at [email protected] Remember, there are only 54 cards available!
