Report of the President- Lanalee Jorgensen
It’s
a new year and filled with lots of exciting new beginnings. It will be the year the Ohio Valley Pembroke
Welsh Corgi Club will be holding its very first independent specialty. It’s a year we will be hosting the PWCAA
board meeting in conjunction with this specialty. And it’s a year I have welcomed by becoming
Mrs. Bill Law on New Year’s Day at the gorgeous Hotel del
Coronado in
There
are so many wonderful things happening, I think we should all take a moment to
think of all that the
None
of this has been the doing of one person, but of many. All of you should give yourselves a pat on
the back for your continuing hard work on behalf of our club as well as our
breed. This has been and always should
be a team effort. So
many of you have so many unique ways in which to contribute. It is this versatility that is the greatest
strength of this club. I thank each and
every one of you for your efforts.
It is you, the membership that makes this club what it is today.
Wishing
you all the best in the coming year and looking forward to seeing you all at
the January meeting!!
Lanalee Jorgensen
