Board Growth  By: Nancy Peyton

The Board has been a very busy in the past few months.  We've had new members joined our association.  The word is getting out.  We've jumped from 69 members to 132.  Can you believe it?  I can hardly believe it myself.  AND.... we are working closely with the group called, "National Non-Recognized Cavy Club" here in the U.S..  Sounds catchy doesn't it.  Already a web site is being designed.

There's been a lot of talk about some non-recognized breeds and colors.  Some Guidelines (Standard) are being written on them so we can sponsor shows.  Of course, this is just a FUN club.  We won't be affiliate with A.R.B.A (American Rabbit Breeders Association) or A.C.B.A. (the American Cavy Breeders Association).  We're on our own.  We'll offer slips (legs) if asked for those that include them in their sanctioned shows, Technical Grand Champion papers on them, sweepstakes points the works.  If you're interested in all this, let us know.  We're going to need all the help with can get.
