2012 National

Hi Everyone
I’m just nicely back from the National in Saskatoon, and finally getting caught up on emails and such.

As you may or may not know, as of this time no CSSA region has stepped up to host the CSSA National 2012.

What I would like to know from you.....the CSSA members of Ontario South.....is this something that you would like to host?

Saskatoon held the National in conjunction with an All Breed show, so as to keep down expenses. I think this was a resounding success for Saskatoon.

The hurdle we would need to overcome here in Ontario South, is the appropriate location. At this time we are required to include conformation and obedience, other performance events can be added at our discretion, and it is to be held indoors.

So please keep in mind that hosting a National is a huge undertaking, requiring many volunteers, and a major commitment financially. This is not something that can be done by a few people. Ontario South hosted the National in 1998, and it was a great success and a major source of pride for those of us that helped to put it on.

Please I am looking for feedback from you all. If I get enough positive responses, I will organize a meeting to discuss hosting the 2012 National.
Hoping to hear from you soon.
