NEWS April, 2009
April 01, 2009 - We are now taking entries for our 3rd Annual Boxer Specialty held in conjunction with the 2009 UKC Premier. Pre-entry closes May 23, 2009. Once again, our Heath and Education Committee has put together a very affordable Health Clinic available to all breeds. This is PRE-REGISTRATION ONLY! Pre-registration for our Health Clinic will close on May 30, 2009. Please make sure to pre-register early to ensure a time slot for your dog(s). Knowing is part of the solution!
April 02, 2009 - Our Community Service project, Boxers For Boobies, started as a club project on a volunteer basis. The overwhelming support of fanciers has encouraged us to extend an invitation to participate to non-club members, and the response has been more than positive! The UKC has requested the 16th Annual UKC PREMIER to be added to our list of shows where we will be collecting for our Boxers For Boobies campaign.
April 15, 2009 - June is a big month for the GLBC and it's members, and it is quickly approaching! Chris Fleisher (Trophy Chairperson) has been busy photographing our lovely Trophy Donations for our 3rd Annual Boxer Specialty. Rebecca Kunz has offered trophies/prizes for Best Male and Best Female. Steve and Mary Quinn has offered many beautiful hand crafted wood trophies/prizes (these will be posted as soon as Chris sorts them out), and Chris is (once again) crafting additional trophies/prizes. Marge Gubry (Health and Education Committee Chairperson) is busy taking registrations for our Health Clinic. Will Chrzanowski (Merit/Excellence Program Chairperson) is working on certificates for the GLBC Boxers of Merit/Excellence Program inductees. Tina Reed (Ribbon Committee Chairperson) is browsing for beautiful ribbons, and has graciously offered Morgan to make space for our Specialty in their "storage unit".
April 17, 2009 - Top Ten Standings have been updated to correctly reflect the current UKC rankings. The Great Lakes Boxer Club's Community Service project, Boxers For Boobies, has a current total pledged of $597.00! A HUGE GLBC thank you to all of the participants who have committed to this worthy cause!
April 18, 2009 - CONGRATULATIONS to Debra Harrah on becoming MRS. Debra HENKLE on April 11, 2009! We wish you long life (always filled with Boxers, of course), love, happiness, and prosperity.
