The Carolina Club received a letter. The Thursday – Fridaydates are in conflict with a new four day Knoxville/Oak Ridge Circuit. We will have to ask them to exclude AfghanHounds those two days. If the all-breed clubs do not agree, the AHCA could switch days and have the regionalspecialties on Monday and Tuesday and the National on Wednesday – Friday.
