Helping Western NC
Many of us have friends in the Asheville and are aware of the devastation to so many communities. While FEMA, The National Guard, Special Forces are mobilized, there are also many boots on the ground non-government organizations helping out in order to speed up what will be a VERY long recovery.
MOORE COUNTY KENNEL CLUB sponsors an AKC Disaster Trailer, which could be mobilized (we are unaware of its current location).
The Club has also purchased dog food to be sent via mule train (they can access areas that are innaccessible to vehicles).
We urge Members to take good care when considering your donations.

Recording Secretary
Thank you, Naomi Johnson, for assuming responsibility as the Club’s new Recording Secretary. Naomi was appointed by President Jane Hammett Bright.
Nominating Committee
It seems a bit early to be talking about this, but our May 30 Picnic will be our last Meeting prior to the Summer Break. Naomi Johnson will serve as Nominating Committee Chair, which will be tasked to bring the 2025 Officer Slate to the Board by October 1.
In the meantime, Naomi will be selecting Members (not currently on Board) to sit on this Nominating Committee. She will have her committee selected by September 4, when the Board will consider approving them to continue the process.
Thank you, Naomi for stepping up to the plate and volunteering!
