Education is a top priority of our club.
Speakers, articles, audio-visual and meeting discussions help keep
our members informed. We are
fortunate to have a veterinarian as an active member.
Our financial support includes donations to Morris Animal Foundation,
University of Illinois Veterinary School and many Great Dane Rescue
projects.
Our service, past and present, for and on behalf of the GDCA include:
Member of the GDCA Board of Directors and Corresponding Secretary,
Trophy Chair, RV Parking Chair, Hospitality Chair, Raffle and Donations and
Futurity judge.
But our greatest strength as a club is our motto:
“Most likely to succeed,
because we have each other.”
