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- We have white and a light green(Serene Green) posted up already. Here are 2 more. Prarie Dust and Sports Grey. This Prarie Dust could be worth serious consideration-not really grey and not really green and the art work shows up good. The Sports Grey is not a 100% cotton shirt-that I have doubts on,,,,I did do it on 2 camo patterns and also did get the white background to work-but it looked real bad!-so the white circle is removed... |

I personally like the dark grey and grey camo or green camo without the white circle. It looks to me like the seal shows up well enough.
I would order a grey and grey camo in XL. |

Steve,
Thanks for the hard work! I like all of them except the white and the camo with white background. When you are ready to take orders, I will order three; each in a different color, but all in size L. |

That would be two large in "praire dust" or "grey camo" without the white circle.  |

Well, I've logged in twice, had a post lost in cyberspace because of what ever "error prompt" means and forgot my answer to your question which technically could be answered with.......yes.  |

Duckheads- Not Yet. I have talked to 2 board members and they seem to like the idea. A 3rd has actually posted in this thread so I know he supports the concept. Tonite I emailed all 9 board members asking them to discuss and give me a green light to do this hopefully sooner rather then later so I can get them made and have plenty of time to distribute before the hunt tests this spring. I hope to get this wrapped up soon and before the nice weather gets here cuz I have plenty to do once the days get longer and the temps a little warmer!
All- To make this practical I am probably going to need to trim the color offering some. With that in mind I removed the pic with the white circle and also the dark grey. So for now we have White,Serene Green,Prairie Dust,Sports Grey,Green Camo,Grey Camo and of course-PINK. This is still probably too many different colors and I am considering just offering one camo type, but lets just keep up the inputs and we will see where it takes us. Another thought is to offer just one color this year-and then next year maybe offer a different color-that would be much easier. |

| Any chance of offering these in a denim or corduroy button down shirt that will last a while? Or possibly in a polo style, I can’t handle T-shirts. |

| From the same supplier - they do have other shirt types, dress,casual,polo etc. I have seen other outfits that can even put it on panties! I myself get very little use out of denim and seem to wear tee's all the time so that is what was initially explored. Not ruling out any of the above -but- To be truthful I can only handle so much at a time. This is something that I will probably end up fronting the $ on and with that in mind will be needing to limit the variations as much as possible and then hope I order the right mix of sizes, let alone colors (if I even do more then one) so that I can get rid of them in a fairly timely manner. Another idea was long sleeve tee's instead of short sleeve...I dunno |

How about pink sundresses?
This reminds me of engineering by commitee....... :-)
Lets make it easy on him, or pay him for his time and effort!
I appreciate what you are doing 2BD and agree that you should only have to take preorders with extra $ for shipping and handling unless the APLA wants to fund the project and make a little profit on it.
You are a good guy!!!!
