Fall Election for 3 Directors
There are three directors whose terms expire at the end of 2008. Those are Brice Romero, Stu Wange, and Joe Bubulka. It is unclear if any or all of them will run for re-election. We will have an election commencing in October. At this time the APLA is solicting for those members who wish to run for a 2 year term.

The requirements are to be a current member in good standing. You need to submit your nomination letter no later than September 20th. This letter needs to or should contain the following items.
*The office you are running for. Here it is director.
*Why you feel you would make a good director.
*Any goals or objectives for the APLA you would have if you were elected.
*Your length of membership with the APLA.
*Amount of and type of APLA officer or event experience as well as other dog organizations.
*Dog experience relative to titles attained, training, judging, hunting, etc.
*Your letter must contain your name, address, phone number, and email address.
*And lastly your letter must contain 10 current members who support your nomination and whose permission you have attained. List their addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses. (Double check this information for completeness and accuracy. Nine current members won't pass, it takes 10 members.)

The nomination letters need to be received not later than September 20th by Larry Kimble, 1112 Birdie Drive, Independence, KS 67301, 620-331-4066. No express over overnight mail requiring receipt signature. Also, email your letter to lkimble@cableone.net by the same date.

Online Hunt Test Registration System - Friday, August 8, 2008
MEMBERS STILL NEED TO MAIL YOUR ENTRIES TO THE HUNT TEST SECRETARIES!

On line entry of dogs by members is not yet available. This phase is for the hunt test record keeping only. This past Spring season, APLA successfully rolled out version 1.2 of our custom built Hunt Test Registration System (HTRS)! All Spring HT results are available on http://www.americanpointinglab.com/site/Dogs/tabid/108/Default.aspx.

In case you have not heard about our new system, HTRS is an online, password protected, application which will allow real time access to membership data as well as certification data. The following features and benefits were included in this release of the software.

* Membership information as well as certification information can be cross checked and updated in a prompt manner.

* Hunt Test Secretaries can easily enter test scores which will lead to quicker certificate generation.

* Improve the turn around time from Hunt Test Events to the results being posted online.

* New accounting reporting features:
> Ability to enter one payment to cover multiple entries.
> Refunds for scratch entries (if applicable).
> Create income summary report.

* Allow BOD Secretary to add/update memberships on line (mail-in only).

* Add bird count report enabling HT secretaries to keep track of birds.

* Enhanced Reports
> Alternate row shading for easier viewing.
> Input translation to ALL CAPs when HTS enters data all lower case or proper case so reports and HT Booklet looks uniform.

* Enhanced scoring for quicker certificate generation.
> Add owner name and address to score report.

* Enhanced judge's sheets program allows HT secretaries to print judge's sheets at once.

OK, i will clarify, you are guessing the actual event. Right down to the time if you want. I'm sure some will guess the same day, so the time will be the tie breaker. Barbara

I'll stick with the 24th which is a monday, of course, both Kevin and Barbara will have a ton of things already scheduled for that day. (which they will have to change )Satin will start going into labor really early in the morning say 3 oclock, (so no one will get any sleep).. and by 10 in the morning we're going to be seeing pictures (or movies) of some of the cutest puppies in the world...and I cannt wait to see them.
