Dear Members,

Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier Club of America, Inc.

Marcy Kraus, Corresponding Secretary 185 Parkwood Avenue
Rochester, NY 14620 marchwindwheatens@gmail.com

Nominations for the 2029 National Specialty and the National Specialty Sweepstakes judges have been tallied and the top five individuals with the highest number of votes have made the final ballot. In the case of our Sweeps nominations, there was a tie, and six individuals appear on the ballot. We are now ready to make the final selection. You may vote for up to three judges in each category, and each vote receives one point. If you vote for the same candidate multiple times, they will still receive only one point. The judges receiving the most points will be invited to judge the National Specialty and the National Sweeps. If an individual declines the assignment, the person with the next highest number of votes will be asked to judge. The Sweepstakes candidates have agreed to judge if elected.

To be considered, your vote must be received by September 15th. We encourage you to vote directly on the website -- open SCWTCA.org and scroll to the bottom of the page to the “What’s New” box, access the ballot, make your selections, sign and submit! Votes can also be emailed to vote@scwtca.org, or if mailed, send to Ms. Nancy Draper, SCWTCA Recording Secretary, 2310 Dawes Street, Ashland, NE 68003.

Sincerely,

Marcy Kraus
SCWTCA Corresponding Secretary
