Well welcome everyone to 2019 ! ACDCU NEW S byMarc Moore, ACDCU President Hope if it wasn't your best year that you have learned how to make the challenges you had your stepping stones to better days. T he ACDCU was born in 2018 and with our first year behind us I would like to tell you our membership some exciting things and look back just a little. When we began many were very optimistic that we would "make it" and that we really would be inclusive as we said. Others where not so positive and were sure that we had some hidden agenda to hurt the AKC parent club and that we had an axe to grind against someone. Well over 100 + members later and 1 year down, I think we are proving day by day to everyone that there in no negativity here. We are focused on building a great organization for the membership and the breed. T he ACDCU became well known around the ACD world fairly fast and thanks to an excited membership it continues on that path. We have members from all over the world including Judges from AKC, FCI , ANKC, many of which who have said they to are glad a group is trying to pull together all the ACD fanciers for the betterment of the breed. T he board of the ACDCU spent the year proclaiming the message of our great breed and our great new club at shows and events all over the country and world. Our goals were big for year one with a true JUBILEE event planned that we hoped would bring together many in the ACD world for cool events and great prizes, not only did we do it but the results were beyond our wildest expectations. We then began to focus on an even bigger goal for not only good club communication but the ACD world in general to have a resource on the breed, T he ACDCU Spotlight digital magazine and that goal is getting very close to being realized with a few delays in production but we are in no hurry as the results will be worth it. Some of the truly exciting things that I would like to share with you is in regards to how the ACDCU is being seen in the dog world. At the end of the year extravaganza held by the AKC in Orlando Fla. I was asked by several AKC judges and some higher ups in the AKC about the ACDCU ! T hey had all heard about us and how we were being inclusive and wanted me to tell them of our plans and what we had done. I could not have been more surprised and proud when they inquired about what we have done so far. T he other thing that has just happened is our member partners who give our membership
enefits have been tracking our members using their codes and they are beyond pleased not only with the amount of usage our members are giving them but the quality of the membership they said is outstanding, T hey are so pleased that they are not only renewing their partnership for 2019 but....increasing our discount amounts !!!!! T he word has gotten out about how our program and many new potential partners are in line to give you deals so we are being very selective as we can be to have partners that truly benefit you our members. Our next goals are to get the website more updated and work on some regional events including herding events ! Big thing on the table is the 2019 JUBILEE voted on by you the membership to be held in Oklahoma City OK. the end of JUNE this year, there will be so many special events that its hard to list them all. We have cool education things that will be included one is a world renowned geneticist who can talk about things of interest to ACD breeders and pet owners alike. Stay tuned as we announce many more things for JUBILEE 2019 but make your plans to attend now. So keep doing what you are doing to help grow the membership as many of you breeders are including a membership with each puppy sold, and buy our logo products that help support our efforts. You will begin to get membership renewal emails/notices depending on when you joined and we can tell you the best is yet to come so please renew when you get the notice. Have a great new year and enjoy your ACD everyday ! Spotlight on Juniors ACDCU Junior Rozlin & Olin 1st place at their first competition in Novice Juniors Clemson, South Carolina
