VARIETY CERTIFICATE OF DEVELOPMENT
FOR THE LILAC VARIETY SUBMITTED

Dera Oldofredi, Tiffany Bohlmann and Julie Spier have submitted the
Certificate of Developement (COD) for the Lilac Variety. There will be a  
presentation to the club membership at Convention 2012 of the Lilac Variety
for participating members to view and discuss. Following Convention, the
Club Board will be sending out a ballot to the members to vote either in
support or not of the Lilac Variety.  Please take a moment during Convention
and review the presentation animals and discuss with your fellow breeders
whether this is a variety you can support.  We appreciate your input and
hopefully your support in this endeavor!
