Welcome to the 2006 National Specialty! The Specialty Committee has worked very hard to make each event a memorable experience for all, and we hope you enjoy every second of it. A special thank you goes to the 2003 Specialty for their generous donation toward the Welcome Reception and the Berkshire Belgian Tervuren Club for partial sponsorship of our Welcome Reception. I would also like to thank all of the ABTC members who came out to help with our agility fundraisers. It was a lot of work but we had fun and we raised thousands of dollars to help fund the National. However, an event such as this cannot be a success without the help and support of each one of you. Please provide your support by donating to the trophy fund, submitting a catalog ad and supporting our events. I would like to encourage all members to help by volunteering for one of our committees. Thank you for all your support and let's all have a great time in May 2006.
Jan Moran
2006 ABTC National Specialty Chairman
