We will be trying a new approach to getting news and info to membership. It was suggested at the last BOD meeting that in lieu of a newsletter, we create a 'news' page on the website. If anyone has news or info they would like to have appear on the page, please send to Lois Olund (membership director)  lolund@peak.org  and we will work to get it up and running. 

If you would like to volunteer to help work/maintain the website, please contact a board member, we would welcome the help.

We know that the best way to promote our lovely breed is for people to get them in front of the public eye. To that end, we are producing 2' x 3' banners to be used when doing a breed booth or when out in front of the public. If you are interested in getting one for your next show or fair, please contact Virginia (yellowfarm@gmail.com).

Anyone who would like to work on putting the survey together, or who may have topics for consideration, please contact Virginia.
