The list above is current according to ABC records. (updated 1/1/10 for
ABC 3rd quarter 9/09). ABC would like your check 45 days prior to the
1st of the month on your expiration date. This means that we must re-
ceive your check at least 60, preferably 90, days prior to your renewal
date. This will make sure that you don't miss any magazines.
Julie will try to post renewals 3 months in advance. Remember, you can
renew up to 3 yrs. at a time. She would highly recommend this option so
that you don't miss any magazines.
GMBC prices were last raised as of January 2005 to $35 full and $10
assoc. (please note). This reflects increases by ABC and also in-
creases for insurance, postage, etc.
2 years = $70 assoc. = $20
3 years = $105 assoc. = $30
Anyone overdue 6 months or more will automatically be deleted from the
membership list.

You and your partner get 20 minutes, and 6 shells each, to try and get 4 Chukars. You can only shoot birds that your dog points, and the less time and shells used, the higher your score.

up with someone.

Time will stop after four birds are shot and in hand, or a maximum of 20 minutes are reached
Official score will be determined by the time keeper
A stop to flush will count as a “point”, ONLY if the dog holds until shot is fired
If your dog is on point, and your only shot is toward the gallery, wave your hat and yell
“safety”. A safety will be counted as 1 bird in hand, and 1 shell used
A blaze orange cap or vest is required
A beeper collar or bell is allowed, NO training collars permitted during competition
For your safety, there will be NO running in the field with a shotgun; brisk walk is acceptable.

Minutes from our General Membership Meeting
Saturday, June 16th, 2012
Our GMBC meeting was held on Saturday June 16, 2012 in conjunction with our training day at the Ottawa
Field Trial Grounds. The meeting was called to order by President Richard Lamb at 10:45 a.m.
Secretary Report: Jeff Jarmuskiewicz-present. No minutes from the last meeting was read because Jeff was absent.
Treasury Report: Dave Unti-absent. The club’s checkbook balance was reported by Sam Thompson. New hats arrived and
are increased to $12.00 & $16.00 because of the embroidery increase.
1st VP:
Sam Thompson-present. Spring Trial at Bong went very well. We had a full schedule on both days and, un-
fortunately, had to turn away dogs. We ran a continuous course. This went well. We paid for a driver and
wagon to transport the dogs to run braces. The club purchased barricades for the roads. Our Banner was
displayed. The paper work is in for the fall trials.
2nd VP:
Debbie Jagielski-absent. The show in Cudahy is going good. All paper work is complete. The premium will
be online very soon. Need volunteers and raffle items.
3rd VP: Julie Asmus-absent. The club picnic is changed to Sunday, July 15
th. We need dishes to pass. We will be
inviting The American Brittany Rescue to the picnic. We will also have a training day in the a.m. Rich Lamb
will give instructions on the “Use of a Garmin Astro GPS.” Jeff Jarmuskiewicz will invite Veterinary, Dr.
Marty Greer to talk (topic TBA.)
4th VP: Jeff Teuteberg–present. The club will have another training day on July 15
th and two training days in August
at Bong. The dates TBD.
OLD BUSINESS: None
NEW BUSINESS: The club’s new banner is hanging in the club house. Thanks to Richard Lamb for designing it! He is trying
to secure a booth for a day at the Wisconsin State Fair’s Wonderful World of Dogs. We will need volunteers.
More information will follow at a later date.
Debbie Lewandowski had questions on the club’s website. She would like to see it expanded and update.
Example: add areas for education. Rich Lamb, the site coordinator, is looking for any info to add. If anyone
has any info or stories to add, please send it to Rich.
Richard Lamb is working with our new club sponsor, Native Pet Foods, for judges and trainers at training
sessions. They provide this service at no cost to clubs.
Ottawa Delegate: Ned Warner-absent. Sam Thompson mentioned our work days at Ottawa in July. We need volunteers to
work. He also said that the DNR will instruct qualified people for driving the tractor for mowing. All drivers
need to take a DNR class on the equipment before they can use it. Only a few members are currently quali-
fied.
Bong Delegate: Andy Lewandowski-present. Bong work continues. They filled in some ATV tracks.
The DNR is working on the 5 year management plan. This is the last year for rockets. DNR is also working
on a plan for the Rainbow Springs area. Discussion followed on the Wildlife Federation and info on Puppy
Mill Legislation.
The meeting was adjourned at 11:35 a.m. Respectfully submitted by, Jeff Jarmuskiewicz.,
Secretary
