10/16/09: CONCOURS ANNOUNCEMENT

I regret to announce that the Oct 18th event at Tobay Beach is canceled and there will be no raindate.

The rain and cold just cannot be overcome.

I spent the last two weeks putting trophies together and working with Dan Fishkind to use Tobay as a location.

Unfortunately, that labor was in vain.

After speaking with Charlie Mekeel, our Chief Judge, we have both decided, with a heavy heart, to end the concours season.

Thank you for your support.

David Leonoff
Metro NY PCA
Concours Chairman
