National Retriever Club (NRC)

To: All Member Clubs of the National Retriever Club, Inc.
From: The Board of Directors of the National Retriever Club, Inc.
 
The Board of Directors of the National Retriever Club would like to thank all of its Member Clubs that participated in the recent re-vote on the issue of granting a lifetime qualification to all previous winners of the National Championship stake. This re-vote was the direct result of the field trial community letting the NRC Board of Directors know of the community’s desire for a re-vote. The NRC Board of Directors listened and responded accordingly with a re-vote.
 
The NRC Board of Directors now ask for all Member Club’s participation in the vote on the proposed changes to the Constitution and By-Laws. Many of these changes are long overdue and are necessary because of the times we live in. Some of the proposed changes reflect changes that have already occurred in our sport.
 
Thank you again for your participation and we hope you will join us in making this next vote on the proposed By-Law changes another success.
 
David Opseth, Secretary/Treasurer
National Retriever Club, Inc.
