I am thrilled and very proud to share with you the first edition of the GSDFSA's digital magazine. This exciting initiative is driven by our youth members, Charmaine van Rooyen and Marcail Wragg, with outstanding support from Elizabeth Wragg. The magazine has been a long-anticipated project, and we are excited to finally launch it.
This initiative is a key component of our youth development efforts and a fantastic way to strengthen our organization by sharing knowledge and fostering communication across all members.
I encourage all Chairpersons to distribute the magazine to your members and to acknowledge the hard work of our youth in this inaugural edition. Please also invite members to participate in future articles and contribute to the ongoing success of this publication.
Additionally, I see this as a valuable opportunity to engage the youth in your clubs, encouraging them to participate in events and become more involved in our broader youth program.
As you are aware, there are very few individuals attempting on social media to discredit the organization, its members, and our dogs. However, we know that we are part of a great organization filled with dedicated and passionate individuals, and no negativity will deter us from enjoying and growing our sport and hobby.
In the next two weeks, we will formalize the youth sub-committee, and I appeal to all of you to lend them your full support. This committee will work to ensure that our youth are actively involved in all activities and continue to thrive within the organization.
Thank you for your ongoing commitment, and I look forward to seeing our youth continue to make a positive impact.
Warm regards,
Chris Thompson
President
