NATIONALS UPDATE
I am so happy to share some great news with the membership. The response to our June 22 letter, asking you to let us know whether you are coming to Nationals, was met with an overwhelmingly positive response. Entries in all events are above what they were at this same time last year, and you have sent in an additional $26,000+ in sponsorships in the past two weeks!! This is SO HEARTWARMING!!! The membership has risen up to make their Nationals possible. I hope every member is proud of our response as an ASCA Family. One member on the Nationals FaceBook group said we are ASCA STRONG, and I couldn't agree more!
Because of YOU, the 2023 ASCA National Specialty will go on! Unless you put a hold note on your entry check, your checks will be deposited on July 19, and the 2023 Nationals Committee will move forward with our plans.
ENTRIES ARE STILL OPEN until August 31 per the premium. (Please see page 15 of the premium for entry information.) As of today, we have 245 exhibitors and we have 56% of our entry fee goal, so we are still hoping to see a flood of entries in the next six weeks, but because of your generosity and because enough of you let us know you were coming, we will be celebrating our Aussies and each other and the awesome friendships that ASCA brings us in Bryan in October!!
Stay tuned for further updates as we continue to receive your entries.
