Message

Dear Members,

Sparky Anderson was the manager of the Cincinnati

Reds, and later the Detroit Tigers baseball teams. He was arguably the most successful Major League manager of the 1980s and 1990s, and highly sought—after for his

sage advice. Even after he retired. One day, long after he was no longer managing baseball, he was volunteering

at a community event when a reporter stopped him and asked, “What’s the most important lesson you learned

during your long career in baseball?” Without hesitating Sparky responded, “Be nice.” Taken aback, the reported

asked, “What?” Sparky continued—“Be nice. It doesn’t cost a nickel, and it’s worth a million dollars to those on the receiving end.”

So what does that have to do with Boston terriers? It’s how it applies to us as exhibitors and fellow members of

commercial or home-made dog food(?), firm stools, bad

From the

Editor

I’ve had the unique opportunity to show dogs almost every weekend in 2011. With this opportunity came sacrifices, the Coast to Coast one of them. I regret to inform you that this will be my last issue, for now, as editor of the Coast to Coast. Jennifer Kurts will be taking over as editor and I’ll help her as much as I can. She’s going to try to keep it a similar format, but there are still a lot of details to iron out.

I wish everyone good luck in 2012, in the whelping box, in the show ring or simply cuddled on the couch with your Boston.

Body text is set in Adobe Caslon Pro and Myriad Pro. Adobe Caslon is based on the type designs of William Caslon, circa 1725. These in turn had been influenced by the Dutch types of the late seventeenth century. Although old style in nature they have less stress than some of the earlier faces of the genre. The Adobe Caslon font family was based on specimen pages printed

by Caslon between 1734 and 1770. Myriad was designed by Carol Twombly and Robert Slimbach in 1992.

The display faces are Fling and Kursivschrift. Fling is a fanciful typeface was designed by resident Letraset designer Michael Gills and is based on the famous French Ronde script. Created entirely on screen, Fling has a precise, clinical appearance. The capitals are for initialling purposes only and support a lowercase that is rich in alternative and ligatured letterforms.

* April 10, 12, 14, 2011

President Ola Jeanne McCollough called the meeting to order at 4:11 p.m. (PST). Present were Ola Jeanne McCollough, Joyce Fletcher, Lynda Bradley, Richard Nix via conference call, Dane LaJoye, Marby Kelly (AKC Delegate), Maureen Blackwood, Jamie Allen, Sharon Stoll, and Fred Comstock. Absent were Brook Berth and Linda Jett.

Roll Call – Bradley Board Reports President - No report.

Vice President - No report.

Treasurer – Nix joined the meeting via conference call. He stated he submitted his report and has not received payment for several Futurity entries and COAST to COAST advertisements. It was a Board approved policy at the October 19, 2010 meeting; checks were to be mailed to Nix on a bi-monthly basis.

Nix also reminded the Board to submit any expenses on the club approved expense report. Due to the Board not being able to hear Nix, the Board requested he forward his report to Allen and Comstock. Nix left the meeting 4:24 p.m. (PST) Concern was voiced on the COAST to COAST distribution not meeting timelines as it is a quarterly newsletter. It was felt membership has come to expect this mailing and it is a large part of why many pay dues. Allen suggested reviewing other options such as increased assistance (possibly an assistant editor) to maintain the timelines. Berth might be overburdened and not able to distribute the COAST to COAST timely and thus not meeting commitments agreed upon. It is a common belief that Berth’s efforts and creative talents in producing the COAST to COAST are outstanding and being a volunteer, the dilemma is maintaining quality while upholding the responsibility of producing the COAST to COAST and delivering it to the membership quarterly. Membership dues were raised to produce this publication and currently, this obligation is not being met. Fletcher stressed how every committee is under the Board’s discretion, and the COAST to COAST is

one such committee. Therefore, assistance needs to be found or the project relinquished to another member. Further discussion tabled until another meeting when Berth can be present.

Comstock suggested meeting before the Annual meeting, with LaJoye offering having a single topic meeting take place in his suite the evening of April 12, 2011.

From Nix’s comments, Comstock made a motion that no services should be provided without payment/funds received (ads in the COAST to COAST and donations for example) by the BTCA. Seconded by Fletcher, motion approved unanimously.

Discussion on providing reimbursement to Ken Roux for Futurity receipts on his expenses.

Nix claimed Roux’s request was not submitted properly; however it was felt Roux should be paid. Allen made a motion to reimburse Ken Roux for his expenses of $249.88 from 2010 Futurity. Seconded by Bradley, motion approved unanimously.

Recording Secretary - Comstock made a motion to approve the March 15, 2011 special meeting minutes, Blackwood seconded. Motion passed unanimously. Bradley will read the sealed results of the election ballot at the Annual meeting Thursday, April 14, 2011, and will ask for approval of the Annual minutes from 2010.

Corresponding Secretary - No report. Suggestion to have a brief meeting after the Annual meeting to vote on new member applications.

The Board agreed to this meeting.

Delegate Report – Kelly has a Meet the Breed application which needs to be delivered to Carl Gomes. Kelly also showed Board members, a photo AKC was slated to use as an example of the Boston breed, yet it was thought not to be a very good representation.

She would like to offer a better example to be used than the one provided.

Approved BOARD Minutes

Unfinished Business Proposal for a new BTCA Performance Newsletter – LaJoye suggested instead of an entire newsletter, the BTCA designate a couple of pages for Junior and Performance in the COAST to COAST each month. Information printed would be provided to the Editor by club members. LaJoye made a motion to allocate two pages (one for Junior Showmanship and one for Performance Bostons) in every issue of the COAST to COAST. Comstock seconded, motion approved unanimously. Fletcher to contact Maria Urso to let her know the outcome of the Board Decision.

Grand Champion Recognition Award – LaJoye explained the recent interest in offering members a medallion for earning Grand Champion status, much like the existing award for earning a regular championship. Blackwood suggested the awards bestowed upon the winners of this title be retroactive.

The Board supported this idea. Motion from Blackwood to have a Recognition Award/medallion to those dogs AKC has determined to have achieved Grand Champion status, and to include winners retroactively. Allen seconded, motion approved unanimously.

Constant Contact E-mail System – this system of contacting membership via e-mail for updates in a quick and efficient manner has worked well. LaJoye suggested this service should remain a responsibility of the Corresponding Secretary. The system can be transferred and has a monthly $15 charge. Comstock made a motion for the BTCA to

continue using the Constant Contact Email system. Fletcher seconded, motion passed unanimously.

New Business Report from Policy & Procedure Committee – Fletcher and Comstock distributed an informational packet to the Board, and reported they have researched past Meeting Minutes and provided the Board with a breakdown from 2008 of the policies which have been adopted. They will hopefully retrieve additional policy and procedures by contacting Deane Jones to view archived information dating back to 1985. They have not yet been placed on the BTCA website, but this is the eventual goal much like how AKC has a similar page.

Also provided in the packet was a list of National show sites since 1985 and a U.S. map of the five regions in the annual rotation.

Role of Liaisons – the role was designed so there are boundaries to the communication between committees and the Board. Yet due to the fact a liaison has to be a Board member, Kelly stated how a common perception is the Board controls too many aspects within the BTCA. She felt liaisons shouldn’t have to necessarily be members of the Board. General discussion of the pros and cons of this idea and it was felt a policy needs to be put in place.

It was mentioned how critical it is to encourage and reinforce members to be active and involved with club activities. Comstock made a motion moving

forward, liaisons to committees do not have to be members of the Board but would still report to the Board on committee activities. Seconded by Blackwood, motion passed unanimously.

E-mail Notification – Meetings & Approval of Minutes – Comstock presented AKC documents stating e-mail communications can not be conducted without signing a release/agreement form for e-mail notifications. This should be added as a new policy for the club. Fletcher motioned e-mail notification releases be signed by Board members in accordance to AKC policy, for the approval of minutes and notifications, seconded by Stoll. Motion passed unanimously. Fletcher will retain copies of the Board signed releases.

Future Show Chairs – Fletcher made a proposal the Show Chair for the National be a local member of the club, ideally living where the show is located. This would save on travel expenses, eliminate the need for an assistant chair, and be easier to facilitate when working with local hotels/vendors.

Marcia Terry for example, should be the next National Show Chair since it will be located in Houston. She will mentor with LaJoye. Carol Upthegrove was previously thought to handle this role, but it was believed Terry would be a preferred choice with this new focus. Fletcher made a motion to have Marcia Terry act at the National Show Chair for 2012, seconded by Allen.

Motion approved unanimously. LaJoye to contact each person regarding this Board decision.

Approved BOARD Minutes Future Show Sites - LaJoye reported the rotation for 2013 would be in the MidWest. Chicago would like to bid to host the National and is currently looking for appropriate hotels. At the Affiliate club meeting, it should be communicated the Chicago club is interested and another club could also assist and mentor if necessary. Allen suggested considering having a smaller club host one of the shows before the National, to learn the tools and skills needed in eventually hosting a National. LaJoye thought a “How To” guide with instructions and timelines for putting on a National could be created, and offered to work on this type of project. A letter will be sent to the six clubs eligible to host a National (Minnesota, Hawkeye, Wisconsin, Detroit, Kentucky, and Cincinnati) in the selected Region.

Judges - 2012-2013 – Dr. Harry Smith will be judging the National in 2012 and Ken Roux will be judging in 2013.

Allen thought it would be a good gesture to offer the membership a choice in Sweepstakes judges for 2013. Fletcher thought mentioning to members in the COAST to COAST would be a viable option.

Report Communications Committee – Comstock has been working with Georgeann Mathis in looking at other club’s handling of password protected pages on websites and investigating the possible liability of hosting a “chat list”.

LaJoye asked about communication via other social networks such as Twitter, and it was thought this would be acceptable.

Also the possible vulnerability of the Board being sued without special

insurance protection needs to be investigated. Comstock will report his findings at the next Board Meeting.

Photo Contest in conjunction with Meet the Breed – Short discussion from a previous meeting on having a photo contest with the Meet the Breed booth at the next Eukanuba show in Florida. This project had been successfully done under Lisa LaMere in the past, and would have co-chairs Carol Upthegrove and Linda Taylor to assist in 2011. Motion made by Fletcher to have the photo contest in conjunction with the Meet the Breed this year in Florida, seconded by Bradley. Motion passed unanimously.

Letter from Sherry Patton – Fletcher to speak with Berth regarding a replacement copy of the COAST to COAST for Sherry Patton and to also address her suggestion for a feature on Juniors.

Fletcher to let her know the Board’s decision to include a page in future editions of the COAST to COAST. Website Information Members Only - Melany Anaya is the Website committee chair and works with a contracted vendor. A proposal is to eventually have the membership roster, meeting minutes, and club business password protected on the website. The Roster would be especially helpful as there were errors in the printed copy sent to the membership, but if on the website, members could request changes immediately. Additionally, website links and kennel names could be included as well.

Comstock thought individual pass-

words would be the best course of action to ensure due diligence of privacy to club business. In time, offering the paying of membership dues via PayPal would also be a positive addition to the website. Allen to discuss with Anaya if the vendor can make these various additions/changes.

Open Discussion - Allen inquired regarding the rules of a three time Perpetual Trophy winner, required to have the same ownership names on all the dogs. Her thoughts were the honor should be bestowed upon the rightful winner without having the ownership restriction, feels the current rule is excessive, and precludes people who honestly deserve the trophy. Comstock provided the reasoning that people could fund being a co-owner on many dogs without stepping into a ring or working with any Boston. Kelly also offered how the current Perpetual Trophy awards were established with outlined rules many years ago and the eligibility to win the trophy is not negotiable.

In the future, challenge trophies may be offered instead. Further discussion on awarding trophies to those winning three times regardless of similar owners listed on the dog, can be continued at that time.

A motion was made by Comstock to recess until Tuesday, April 12, 2011, for a short meeting regarding the COAST to COAST. Seconded by Bradley. Meeting concluded at 6:52 p.m. (PST).

Respectfully submitted, Lynda Bradley BTCA Recording Secretary

The Board meeting convened on Tuesday April 12, 2011 for the second part of the April 10, 2011 meeting. Present were Ola Jeanne McCollough, Joyce Fletcher, Lynda Bradley, Dane LaJoye, Maureen Blackwood, Jamie Allen, Brook Berth, Sharon Stoll, and Fred Comstock . Absent were Marby Kelly (AKC Delegate), Richard Nix, and Linda Jett.

Discussion regarding COAST to COAST – Discussion began by Comstock regarding solutions for the COAST to COAST to be distributed timely, completely, and to meet club obligations.

One suggestion by Berth was splitting newsletters between two smaller and two larger versions.

The smaller issues would be the responsibility of another individual and would contain meeting minutes and general club information. Berth would continue distributing the larger newsletters. Berth stated the COAST to COAST will be ready for distribution soon after the National and will be a larger issue, along with the July issue being sent at the start of the fiscal year. That issue will include information and photos from the National.

Berth suggested Carolyn Garmon who has been assisting with advertisements; help with the smaller issues since she can use the same software. Berth to ask Garmon if she would be willing to take over the smaller issues of the COAST to COAST. It was reminded by Fletcher, of the recent Board decision all advertisements and trophy doMeeting convened on Thursday April 14th after the Annual meeting at 9:23 p.m. (PST). Present were Ola Jeanne McCollough, Joyce Fletcher, Lynda Bradley, Dane LaJoye, Maureen Blackwood, Jamie Allen, Brooke Berth, Sharon Stoll, and Fred Comstock . Absent were Marby Kelly (AKC Delegate), Richard Nix, and Linda Jett.

Membership Application Approval - LaJoye asked Board members for comments and/or questions regarding the applications previously provided at their meeting earlier in the week.

No objections were noted so all were considered approved. LaJoye then read and reviewed the membership applications he received during

nation payments need to be received before publishing in the COAST to COAST. With Jennifer Duffy helping intake and post checks, this will be a workable policy moving forward.

Suggestion by Comstock that information/ club business be located in the front of the magazine, with all else in the rear. All present agreed to the format.

Allen to send copy of Nix’s e-mail with his statements regarding members who did not pay for advertisements to Berth.

Comstock made a motion to have four editions a year of the COAST to COAST: two larger issues (one in July and the edition with the show packet) and two smaller issues (fall and spring) with all publishing and distribution deadlines met. Roll call vote: Ola Jeanne McCollough yes, Joyce Fletcher - yes, Lynda Bradley - yes, Dane LaJoye - yes, Maureen Blackwood - yes, Jamie Allen - no, Brook Berth - yes, Sharon Stoll - yes, and Fred Comstock - yes. Motion passed by majority vote.

The meeting was called to recess by Fletcher, seconded by Bradley until the next scheduled meeting to take place Thursday, April 14, 2011 after the BTCA Annual Meeting. Meeting recessed at 7:52 p.m. (PST).

Respectfully submitted, Lynda Bradley BTCA Recording Secretary the course of the show, which have not yet had Board review. He asked for similar concerns and/ or comments. All applicants have signed a Code of Ethics and he will forward accompanying checks to Nix. A list of new members accepted will be sent to Billie Bunch – Referral Chair, Charlotte Comstock – Membership Chair and Lynda Bradley – Recording Secretary.

Motion to adjourn the meeting made by Comstock, seconded by Bradley. Meeting adjourned at 9:42 p.m. (PST).

Unfinished Business Report of Board Appointed Communications Committee – Co-chairs Georgeann Mathis and Fred Comstock – Comstock reported the committee was tasked by the Board to look into ramifications of a BTCA sponsored chat list and password protection strategies, while also taking legal factors into consideration such as club and individual liability. This project is still in the development stage and the committee wants to perform more research and report back to the Board and membership at a later date.

New Business Proposal for Lifetime Membership – Fletcher announced at a recent Board meeting, it was decided to recommend bestowing Bob and Ellie Candland official Lifetime Member status in the BTCA. Fletcher asked those in favor of this recommendation to raise their hand and asked for those opposed. Recommendation carried by majority vote.

Breed Standard – Based on the proposal from the BTCA according to a 2/3 vote, the AKC approved the suggested changes to the Boston Breed standard at the February 11, 2011 meeting. The change became effective March 30, 2011. The illustrated Breed Standard has been updated and will be available with signage at the end of the meeting, and those not present will be mailed a copy. Fletcher thanked Lisa LaMere for the printing of the standards and bringing them to the meeting for distribution.

Report of Board Appointed Policy & Procedures Committee – Fletcher and co-chair Comstock have been working on compiling a list of all approved BTCA Policy and Procedures according to Meeting Minutes and archived documents. The AKC currently has a list of their policies and procedures on their website, and this committee’s eventual goal will be to have the same for the BTCA. Ideally, available on the website will be PDFs of meeting minutes dating

back to 1985, along with past winners of Nationals. Also to be posted will be a list of all past National locations since 1985 and a map of the U.S. regions eligible to hold BTCA Nationals.

Report on the 2012 National – With a competitive bid, the 2012 National was awarded to Houston, Texas to be held at the Crown Plaza, May 7 – 11th. Performance will be held off-site with an obedience trial and two agility runs again.

Every attempt will be made to find an enclosed building or area with a cover.

Dr. Harry Smith accepted his judging assignment and the contract is expected to be returned within 3 weeks.

A question from Chad Howard on the procedure if a replacement judge is needed in the event Dr. Smith is unavailable to complete his assignment.

The judge slated for 2013 is Ken Roux and his being the 2012 replacement will be offered, but not automatic or binding. The judges’ selection committee will be meeting later this year to select judges for 2014, 2015, and 2016. After general discussion, it was decided if the 2012 judge cannot accept or fails to make his commitment; the selection committee will become involved to resolve the situation.

Recognition – Fletcher wanted to recognize Susan Krouse for her tremendous hard work as host club chairman, Dane LaJoye for his tireless efforts as Show Chairman for the BTCA, Ola Jeanne McCollough for her past 4 years work as President, Marby Kelly for her great job announcing at the National , and Lynda Bradley for her role as Recording Secretary for the club.

2011 National Show Recognition & Report – As his last year as Show Chairman, LaJoye wanted to take the opportunity to give thanks to: Susan

Krouse - host club chairman, Carol Upthegrove - Assistant Show Chair, all the committee chairs: Joyce Fletcher, Connie McCord, Cindy Adams – Vendor Chair, Kim Rutherford, Brook Berth – graphics, Clarice Dean – Silent Auction, Deanna Jones and Don VanAvery – Perpetual Trophies, Pat McCann – Chief Ring Steward, Cindy Pagurski – Ways N-Means/Rescue, and Jason Shukhart – videos, music, and support. LaJoye said he appreciated everyone’s efforts and without the incredible members in the club, generous donations of items for raffle and time, this show would not have been as tremendously successful.

Open Forum – Joyce Davis – inquired if the BTCA would be offering awards for Grand Championships. Fletcher announced the motion was passed by the Board to offer Grand Champion awards according to AKC, retroactive to when the awards were first given.

Kelly Estes – wanted the membership to realize the Futurity committee is busy working to rectify separating accounts between Futurity and the Futurity Challenge.

Sandy Crook – introduced herself and complimented the great show this year.

She especially liked having Boston competitions under one roof, showing people their true diversity and what they can do with soundness being her main concern. With regards to issues of backs and hips, X-rays she felt are essential to know health challenges the breed might be passing onto the next generation. She also wanted to encourage the Health certificate program and Health Committee to emphasize soundness and structure for the overall lasting health of the dog.

Sherry Patton – she is returning to showing and is thrilled by the Board decision

to have a Juniors page in the COAST to COAST. She thinks this is a great idea to support and showcase junior showmanship and performance Bostons. She also urged people to contact her as their efforts are to link Juniors throughout the county for education and support.

Lisa LaMere – reported on the committee and experience with the Meet the Breed booth these past four years.

She wanted to recognize the special people who assisted and made the project happen: Janet Christman, Charlie and Garlus Gerson, Cindy Adams, Blair Barrett, Dan Siberson, and Joyce Fletcher. Last year had a fantastic and popular campaign of the Boston County Fair Kissing Booth - giving stickers to the public saying “I was Kissed by a Boston Terrier and I liked it”. This exhibit garnered 2nd place in the NonSporting category at the 2010 Eukanuba Dog show in Long Beach. Next year it is to be located in Florida.

Sonya Baird – member of the health committee and in charge of the 2010 Health Survey. She reminded the group of the importance in completing the on-line Health Survey on the incidences of hip, patella, cataracts, etc, which tells the committee which issues owners are experiencing with their dogs, leads the committee where to focus, and is an accurate way of identifying emerging health issues in the breed.

This information gathered can shape the direction of future research, and is completely confidential. Printed forms can be requested and/or Baird will assist with the completion of the survey if needed.

McCollough asked for motion to adjourn, made by Joyce Davis, and seconded by John Kelly. Meeting adjourned at 8:45 p.m. (PST).

Respectfully submitted, Lynda Bradley BTCA Recording Secretary

President Ola Jeanne McCollough called the meeting to order at 8:06 p.m. (EST). Present were Ola Jeanne McCollough, Joyce Fletcher, Lynda Bradley, Richard Nix, Dane LaJoye, Marby Kelly (AKC Delegate), Maureen Blackwood, Jamie Allen, Brook Berth, Sharon Stoll, and Fred Comstock. Absent was Linda Jett.

Roll Call – Bradley Corresponding Secretary Position to fill remaining 1 year term – Comstock began the discussion by explaining he thought an appropriate candidate would be Janet Harner. He has worked with her previously and felt she has a good grasp of BTCA Bylaws and working with AKC. Allen suggested also discussing other candidates who might be interested in the position. Blackwood offered that Jennifer Duffy forwarded her resume to the Board requesting consideration.

Comstock presented Harner was a committee chair assisting the Bylaws steering project in 1990, is an AKC delegate, attorney, federal judge, and served as the show chair for the Western Washington Specialty. He felt she has more experience than other possible candidates and could start working as Corresponding Secretary immediately upon starting the term.

It was also felt however, that Duffy had run for the office of Treasurer previously, has been assisting Berth with record keeping of the COAST to COAST, and has repeatedly expressed interest in volunteering her time to the BTCA. Comstock made a motion Harner take the Corresponding Secretary position for the remaining term of one year. Seconded by Fletcher.

Roll Call vote called: Joyce Fletcher - yes, Lynda Bradley - no, Richard Nix - yes, Dane LaJoye yes, Maureen Blackwood - no, Jamie Allen - no, Brook Berth - no, Sharon Stoll – yes, and Fred Comstock - yes. Motion carried.

Request for reimbursement from Carol Upthegrove for expenses incurred in Reno, NV for the National Specialty – LaJoye reported he received a letter and receipts from Upthegrove.

Fletcher requested LaJoye read the letter, in which Upthgrove expressed her disappointment from not being utilized as her understanding was she was to be mentored as Assistant Show Chairman, and is requesting a reimbursement of $1228.82 for airfare, lost wages, and food.

5-17 Board 0711 Coast Minutes.indd to Coast.indd 115

Background discussion: LaJoye e-mailed Upthegrove a month prior to the show and asked if she was planning on attending due to the need to reserve a hotel room. Five complimentary suites were provided to the BTCA (most used for judges) and one was given to Upthegrove for six nights. It was also stated by the Board, how helping as Assistant Show Chair was not a guarantee the person would graduate to Show Chairman.

LaJoye explained as he did in a previous Board meeting - he did not delegate as much as he could have, yet Upthegrove also did not contact LaJoye to inquire on helping with the event and he felt no initiative was taken. LaJoye doubted Upthegrove had the necessary skills to completely run a National Specialty of this size.

Blackwood offered that according to previous meeting minutes from August 2008, the Assistant Show Chair is to be provided with four nights of accommodations, which Upthegrove was. Nothing further is mentioned regarding compensation.

Allen made a motion to pay for all of Upthegrove’s submitted expenses totaling $1228.82.

No second was voiced, so the motion failed. Allen then made a motion for the BTCA to pay only for Upthegrove’s airfare expense to the National Specialty totaling $470. Bradley seconded.

Further discussion took place. Comstock stated how this compensation could lead to a pattern of volunteers requesting reimbursement for work performed, which otherwise would have been volunteered. Fletcher commented how other participants at the Specialty (Carl Gomes, for example) are not reimbursed for any expenses, and she felt the club had given Upthegrove the required number of room nights as set forth in the minutes. A Roll Call vote was taken: Joyce Fletcher - no, Lynda Bradley - no, Richard Nix - no, Dane LaJoye - no, Maureen Blackwood - no, Jamie Allen - no, Brook Berth - no, Sharon Stoll – no, and Fred Comstock - no. Motion defeated.

LaJoye to write a letter to Upthegrove stating the Board has agreed to compensate what is required as stated in the Approved minutes from August 2008: 4 night’s hotel lodging A motion was made by LaJoye to adjourn, seconded by Nix. Meeting adjourned at 8:46 p.m. (EST).

Meeting called to order at 8:04 p.m. (EST). Present were Ola Jeanne McCollough, Joyce Fletcher, Lynda Bradley, Richard Nix, Dane LaJoye, Maureen Blackwood, Jamie Allen, Brooke Berth, Sharon Stoll, and Fred Comstock . Absent were Marby Kelly (AKC Delegate) and Linda Jett.

Replacement of Coast to Coast Editor – Extensive discussion concerning recent issues surrounding the C2C namely: number of issues distributed per year, ads not paid for before publication, and the late mailing of the May issue with time sensitive information needing to be sent to the membership within 30 days of the Annual Meeting. Dialog as to whether or not to continue with the C2C current format - moving back to a newsletter publication. Fletcher felt the C2C has become too time consuming for a volunteer position, and impossible to maintain and/ or transfer to another person in the future.

Conversation on the replacement of the current Editor of the C2C took place. Input from Berth was provided to the Board - if she wants to continue her role and the plan she has for improvements. With additional assistance, Berth feels she can continue with a new format for the C2C. Fletcher felt publishing the C2C electronically could be a viable option. Allen stated without alternatives to whom would take over the C2C project, Berth should remain Editor.

Blackwood clarified no one on the Board had further suggestions of anyone else taking over in this role, and without someone available and willing to step in, Blackwood also felt Berth should continue.

Motion by Allen to keep Berth as Editor of the C2C, seconded by Berth. Roll call vote: Joyce Fletcher - no, Lynda Bradley - yes, Richard Nix – no, Dane LaJoye - no, Maureen Blackwood yes, Jamie Allen - yes, Brook Berth - yes, Sharon Stoll - yes, and Fred Comstock - no. Motion passed by majority vote, yet McCollough exercised her option to vote – no. This made the vote a tie and therefore failed.

Fletcher made a motion to table the discussion on replacement of C2C Editor until the first board meeting of the year in July, seconded by LaJoye. Meeting adjourned at 9:15 p.m. (EST).

Roll Call – Baird Reports of Officers

Boston terrier CluB of AmeriCA

* AuGust 9, 2011

President – LaJoye stated that he was show chair when Dr. Harry Smith was contacted to judge the 2012 National Specialty and he has remained as the contact person for Smith. Smith has signed a contract but notified LaJoye that he has a selfimposed restriction of judging only 120 dogs per day. LaJoye let Smith know that the entry will almost certainly be more than 120 dogs per day, especially on Thursday with Winners Dog and Winners Bitch. LaJoye asked Smith which classes he would like to judge if there is a need to hire a second judge to fulfill the remainder of the assignment. Smith prefers to judge Winners Bitch, Junior Showmanship, and Best of Breed with a second judge, if required by the entry numbers, judging Winners Dog on Thursday and nonregular classes on Friday. After discussion of the best way to proceed, a motion was made by Allen to ask the Judges’ Selection Committee to make a recommendation as to how to proceed in regard to Smith’s limitations and to suggest three other judges to fill the remainder of his assignment if we go ahead with Smith as the judge. Howard seconded and the motion passed on unanimous voice vote.

Vice-President – Fletcher needs Howard’s signed consent to do BTCA Board business via e-mail. Howard had thought the form received was for notification purposes only and will send

the signed consent form immediately.

Recording Secretary – No report.

Corresponding Secretary – No report.

Treasurer – LaJoye said that closing out the books, especially deciphering the bill from the hotel in Reno, is a yeoman’s task. LaJoye thanked and commended Nix for his diligent work. Nix reported fund balances as of June 30, 2011 as follows: Boston Terrier of the Year $1,458.19, Futurity Activity $5,236.76, Futurity Challenge Award $3,673.63, General Funds $61,546.30, Health Committee $23,451.91, Perpetual Trophy $5,547.23, and Rescue $5,597.25 for a total of $106,511.27 in the BTCA account.

As of this meeting 95 members have not paid their dues. The board needs to decide whether to extend the deadline, as allowed by the Constitution and By-laws, to September 30. LaJoye read from the Constitution and By-laws that dues are payable on July 1 of each year and that membership will be dropped if dues are not received within 90 days. If the board decided to offer an extension it would be a 90 day extension after September 30. LaJoye will send an e-mail asking members to be sure to pay their dues. Nix said that many of the non-renewals are from couples or families that had multiple paid memberships in the past and are only paying a single membership this year and most of the foreign members have not renewed.

Fletcher asked about the return deposit items on the bank summary statement and whether the party whose check was returned then pays the return fees. Nix said that yes the people are required to pay, by money order, the fees in addition to the original amount due. Nix asked that Terry, as show chair, be sure to send all checks to him every two weeks or at the least every month so that people know their checks have been received and they do not stop payment on the checks. All checks need to be made to BTCA and not to individual members as the banks will not accept

the checks for deposit to the BTCA account if they are made out to individual members.

Nix also noted that the Boston Terrier Club of Miami is no longer in existence. Nix received an individual’s membership with a note that as of about three weeks ago the Miami club has disbanded. Howard said that an offer of help had been extended to the Miami club but they had declined.

LaJoye asked Harner to send a letter to the Corresponding Secretary of the Miami club to inquire about their status.

AKC Delegate – Kelly will attend the delegates’ meeting in Newark, NJ in September.

Special Report on 2012 National Specialty Terry listed the committee chairs as follows: Assistant Show Chair – Ceclia Crouchet, Assistant Show Chair for Obedience, Rally, and Agility – Kelly Misegadis, On-site Show Secretary – Marby Kelly, Chief Ring Steward – Pat McCann, Vendor – Cindy Adams, Trophies – Jason Shuckhart, Hospitality and Banquet – Jamie Allen, Catalog Advertisements – Carolyn Garman assisted by Peggy Jackson, Silent Auction – Barbara Naas, Ways and Means – Cindy Pagurski, Catalog Sales – Ruth Lieberg, 50/50 Raffle – Margaret Noble, Grounds – Linda Martin, Room Sharing – Bennie Byrd. The RV Parking Chair is not confirmed yet but Sue LeCalsey has been contacted.

The videographer will be Dog Show Video Pros (Irv Krukencamp) and the photographer will be Jennifer Kurts.

Allen inquired as to whether The Win-

ning Image had been contacted as photographer. Terry said that they have a contractual requirement that photos be done after every class which would take too long. Allen suggested asking them to delete that requirement; Terry and LaJoye said that they have asked for that in the past and it has been denied.

LaJoye stated that the decision rests with the show chair and that decision has been made.

Kelly inquired as to whether Moss Bow (MB-F) would be there again as on-site show secretary; Terry replied that they would not as this year’s superintendent will be Onofrio. Kelly asked for the cost of having MB-F on-site; LaJoye said it was a bit over $2,000.00, which in hindsight was not worth the money as the only advantage is that they posted results instantaneously.

Harner asked whether Onofrio will post results on their website; Terry said that she will have to check with Onofrio on that. Kelly asked if there was a reason that Onofrio was selected rather than MB-F. Terry said that in the past they have been cheaper and they are the main superintendent in the Houston area. Kelly asked if price quotes had been requested from both Onofrio and MB-F; Terry said that she had not but can do that as we are not yet committed to Onofrio.

Allen asked if there is a way to get multiple rosettes for dogs with multiple owners and are entered in the Parade of Champions if the owners are willing to pay an additional fee in order to receive a rosette for each owner. Terry will check into doing this.

Terry left the meeting at 9:00 p.m. EDT. New Business

New Year, New Rules – LaJoye asked that all board members be familiar with Robert’s Rules of Order so that meetings go smoothly. A discussion of whether board members may participate in online chat groups was tabled until the existing written board policy can be found.

BTCA Goals for the New Fiscal Year – LaJoye asked that goals be set in order to measure progress. Goals suggested were: (1) LaJoye – improve communication between the Board and club members through use of the Constant Contact, prompt response when contacted by club members with questions or concerns, posting of Board minutes as soon as approved and incorporation of more information on the website; (2) LaJoye – offer assistance to affiliate clubs by supporting the new affiliate club chairs in their efforts to improve communication and assistance to the club; Kelly suggested encouraging regional cooperation among the clubs; (3) LaJoye – put performance events and competitors more on the same footing as conformation events and be more inclusive in general, including to people who are pet owners who do not compete but wish to support the breed; (4) Fletcher – give more attention and encouragement to our Junior Showmanship competitors, including emphasizing the importance of observing juniors competitions at shows; (5) Fletcher – include more information on the BTCA website and encourage members to use the website more; (6) Blackwood – find ways to include new members in club operations, the national specialty, and other roles as many want to help but do not

Approved BOARD Minutes know where the help is needed; LaJoye suggested revising the membership application to facilitate this. LaJoye asked board members to consider whether other goals should be added at the next meeting.

Information on the BTCA Website – Allen commended Melany Anaya on the good job she has done with the website. Suggested additions to the website include much of the information that is now in the Coast to Coast, an updated affiliate club list with information about their specialty shows and other events, Award of Merit information, Boston of the Year information including all rules for the event and a listing of the participants (not just those eligible) for each year including the judges and winner for each year. Comstock suggested ways to include all or part of the Coast to Coast in the members only section, not as a substitute for the printed version but in addition to it. Other additions to the members only area can be made as well.

BTCA Committee Chairs for 201112 – LaJoye announced committee chairs and board liaisons as follows: Affiliate Clubs – Venita Prater and Cecelia Crouchet (Board), Awards – Janet Harner (Harner), Breeder Referral – Billie Bunch (Stoll), Boston Terrier of the Year – Ken Roux (Howard), Constitution and By-laws – Joyce Fletcher (Board), Continuing Education – Maureen Blackwood (Blackwood), Futurity – Ken Roux (Howard), Gazette Columnist – Patricia Johnson (Board), Health – Mary Miller (Blackwood), Judges Education – Carl Gomes (Kelly), Meet the Breeds – Linda Taylor (Fletcher), Membership – Charlotte Comstock

(Fletcher), National Specialty – Marcia Terry (Board), Newsletter/Coast to Coast – Brook Berth (Allen), Rescue – Cindy Pagurski (Berth), Ways and Means – Cindy Pagurski (Board), Website – Melany Anaya (Allen).

are five applicants all of whom have at least two references and have signed the Code of Ethics. The applicants are: Patricia Canipe, Wendy Gardino, Savanna Hartwig, Vicki Helgenberg, and Grace Quinlan. Board members are asked to mail the ballots in immediately.

Nominating Committee – The nominating committee must be formed no later than November 1, 2011. The board nominates a chair who then selects two members and two alternates.

LaJoye nominated Fletcher as chair.

Allen nominated Blackwood. Howard made a motion, seconded by Stoll, that Joyce Fletcher be appointed chair of the nominating committee with consideration to Blackwood as a member of the committee. Allen questioned whether any action other than appointment of the chair by the board is allowed by the club constitution. The vote was called and carried with Allen in dissent.

2013 National Specialty Show Site – Allen asked when the board would decide the location of the 2013 national.

LaJoye said that this is an agenda item for the October board meeting. Allen asked if eligible affiliate clubs have been contacted about hosting for both 2013 and 2014. LaJoye said the request has been included in the last three Constant Contact e-mails with a listing of the eligible clubs. Allen suggested that each eligible club be contacted personally. LaJoye asked Allen to do this. Allen stated that she feels it would be a good idea to contact clubs well in advance so that they have time to raise funds with an eye toward hosting the national.

The next regular board meeting will be on Monday, 17 October 2011.

Agenda items should be sent to Harner by mid-September.

There being no further business Comstock made a motion that the meeting be adjourned. The motion carried on a unanimous voice vote and the meeting was adjourned by LaJoye at 10:05 p.m. EDT.

Lifetime Membership Nomination – Fletcher made a motion that the board nominate Richard and Betty Nix as lifetime members pending approval at the next general meeting. The motion was seconded by Comstock and carried on unanimous voice vote.

Selection of Sweepstakes Judge for 2012 National – Tabled until October to allow board members to come up with nominees.

Fletcher left the meeting at 9:47 p.m. EDT.

Nix left the meeting at 9:50 p.m. EDT.

Respectfully submitted, Sonya M. Baird Recording Secretary

New Member Applications – Harner sent copies of the applications and a ballot for election of five applicants. There

These minutes were unanimously approved by the officers and board of directors via email September 6 & 7, 2011.

CH Zodiac’s Special Beau - 1984 The Boston terrier was created to be a companion to man. There are Bostons who are mousers; some are watchdogs of a sort; and a few act as though they were herding dogs, but first and foremost they are companions. Bostons owned by joggers are happy to jog with their masters, and those owned by invalids happily spend their days on the bed. Whatever is necessary to be with his people, that is what a Boston wants to do.

Tony is no exception; he is first and foremost a companion— and there never was a brighter, funnier, more intelligent or more loyal companion.

It is true that Tony had a successful show career. Ownerhandles, he won ten all-breed Bests-in show, twenty-six Group firsts (numerous other Group placements) and nine Boston terrier specialty show bests of breed. He always showed with verve, making friends for the breed. It is also true that he has had a successful stud career.

To date he has sired thirty champions, including one best in show dog and several who have won specialty shows and group placements. Many of his puppies have the distinctive Boston temperament, which makes us love this breed above all others. Through his puppies, Tony has made more friends.

But it is not his show career or stud dog capabilities that make this dog so loved. It’s the scintillating intelligence emanating like sparks from this muscular, tight-knit little dog. He’s only fourteen pounds, but the glint in his eye leaves no doubt that he owns the world!

Robert L. Breum Reprinted from the Vol. 27 No. 3 issue of the Boston Bulletin

Influential sire

Reprinted with permission from Leonard Myers

Our centerfold star this issue needs no introduction. CH Zodiac’s Special Beau was pretty special from the time he first appeared on the show scene. He was a fine individual and an animated showman who possessed the charisma to win the hearts of judges and ringside simultaneously! Bred by Juanita Camp and sold to Bob Breum at a very young age, Tony wasted no time in becoming America’s darling in the world of Boston Terriers. While he was not heavily campaigned compared to some of today’s winners, and was only shown at shows where his owner could pilot him to his wins, he managed to garner 10 Bests of Show (all breeds), 9 Bests of Breed (specialties), 106 Best of Breed, 25 Group I’s, 18 Group II’s, 17 Group III’s and 8 Group IV’s. What an amazing record for an owner-handled Boston Terrier! If his accomplishments in the show ring were not enough to be proud

of, his ability to sire top-notch quality individuals, stamped with his own personal class, certainly set him apart from others of his generation.

It is the opinion of this writer and that of other Boston enthusiasts that Tony was poised to shatter all Boston Terrier records as a sire of champions when his life was cut short at such a very young age. While he sired 42 champions of record, many of us in the fancy are still stunned by his death and left with that empty feeling of what might have been! While Tony has been gone for some time now, his presence is still being felt in America’s show rings today. What finer tribute could be paid to that little wonder dog, CH Zodiac’s Special Beau?

If you have ever wondered why Tony sired the quality that he did, try tracing his pedigree back seven generations as I have done. There you will find that his “roots” are deeply imbedded in the blood of CH Hagerty Again, through Royal Kid, CH

CH Zodiac’s Special Beau Royal Kid’s Specialty, CH Royal Kid Regards, CH Regardless, CH Grant’s Royal Command and down to our present day Bostons. But to give credit to only the fine sires showing in his pedigree would be a grave injustice for, as one might suspect, there is an array of fine champion bitches and others of good quality who were good producers also.

How does one produce a dog of Tony’s quality and potency? By planning very carefully and selecting the best! In truth, in the case of Tony, it was a joint effort by some of America’s most astute breeders … namely, Irv and Eva Kruger, the Richardsons (Detroit), Florence Dancer, Louise Grant, Mrs. Anders (Royal Kennels), Kathryn Schuett, Andy Turner, Susan (Pearl) Ruble and of course, Juanita Camp, his breeder.

Down and back with juniors

by Sherry Patton

Introducing the newest edition to the Coast to Coast… a page dedicated to the Juniors. Thank you BTCA board and C2C for allowing the kids a page to call their own. Here you, the readers, can find news, brags and info specifically about and for Junior Handlers of Boston Terriers. Junior handlers are the future of our hobby and our beloved breed. They need all the support, education and encouragement we can give them. So at your next dog show, stop by the Juniors ring and offer them a hand clap of praise, a word of encouragement and/or maybe a tip or two. If you are a junior handler, the parent of a junior, or know of a Boston Junior, please forward their name, contact info and any news or brags to me, Sherry Patton, at slp4everbts@yahoo.com, so we can be sure to include them and their accomplishments here.

Being the mom of two Junior Handlers I understand the kids’ needs and also how much differ-ence even a little bit of encouragement makes to our kids.

We have personally been blessed to have some great people encourage my own kids, and I would like to see that for all the juniors. I would also like to see wonderful opportunities for all the Boston Juniors within the BTCA, that supports the kids even more. So if you have ideas or suggestions let me know.

I have created a Facebook Group called “Boston Terrier Junior Handlers” for the kids to communicate and network with one another. There they can safely talk about shows and judges, brags and tips, maybe even offer show clothes to

Shelby Jones, Whitney Rutherford, Zoe Patton, Lower Row: Marie Stahmer (2010 Top Junior Handler), Levi Patton

swap or sell. Friend me on FB and let me know you’re a Jr. and I will gladly add Juniors and their parents to the group. Jennifer Kurts, a fellow Boston Jrs. mom, is creating a Juniors ad page in each edition of the E Boston Terrier magazine, free of charge thanks to the magazine. So please forward Jrs. info, news & brags to her at kurtsphoto@ cox.net and she will be glad to include your child in the juniors ad.

Cleft lip and cleft palate study The at Clemson continues with the following update from Dr. Alison Starr-Moss: We have run a preliminary subset of Bostons and Bulldogs with and without clefts on the SNP arrays and found some interesting data. There was one place in the genome that looked as though there was an association, and we are pursuing that now. We need additional samples

to confirm the region of interest and for subsequent follow-up studies.

They continue to need samples.

Contact Dr. Alison Starr-Moss at alison.starr.moss@me.com or 864-6560191. More information on participating in this study can be found here: http://bostonterrierclubofamerica. org/boston-terrier-health/bostonterrier-health-club-news.html
