The officers of the IFGA received a very nice thank you card from Sandy Johnson and the family of Dick Johnson. Dick Johnson passed away earlier this year after a bout with cancer. Dick was a super guy and he was one of the best breeders of the sword tail guppy I have known. Dick always greeted everyone with a smile and was willing to help anyone, be it a club putting on a show or a beginner wanting some advice on breeding. We will all miss Dick and our prayers are with his entire family as they go through this period.

I have made a file copy of the thank you card from his family. If you would like to read it click the link below:

******* Show Automation *******

The show section now has all new files for entering fish in your show with the round class deleted, the "For Print Page", updated and the new/revised Junior Veil/Sword class added. Why use old fashion cumbersome books? Get your entry count immediately and your show results the minute the last Best Of Show entries are made! If you have not downloaded files since then end of April you have the old entry book, judging cards and bowl stickers.

We have added a writeable Show Entry Form to the show sections page. This link provides you with a copy of the show entry that can be filled out write on your computer and then printed ready for the show. Go to the Show Section page and find this link -

***** Delegate Rule Change *****

****************************

The rules were changed at the annual to read "the following people are eligible to be a club's delegate: the club assigned delegate, the president, the vice president, the secretary, and the treasurer (in this order). If one of the above is not able to attend the meeting, the club president can send a letter to the secretary (two weeks prior to the meeting) requesting another member of the club be their representative (all delegates at the meetings will be required to be a member of the club that they are representing).
