CanAm 2018 Gift Basket Exchange!
It’s time to start thinking about the annual CanAm Classic Gift Basket Exchange!
This is a great way for your club to meet clubs from other regions. Each participating club would both give and receive a basket. We will assign clubs to each other and let you know in advance to whom you are giving your basket.
What should you include? Use your creativity and imagination! It can be a theme basket of items that are only found in your region, state or province. It could be a snack basket for the people. Or, perhaps you want to give something that is just for the dogs. It doesn't have to be extravagant, just something fun you want to share. Don't have a basket? No worries, just put the items in a gift bag.
If your club would like to be included in the meet and greet exchange, please visit https://goo.gl/forms/Wl75yKD97ti3RgcF3 and fill out the form to register by September 15th.
The form should include your club name, region, state and the size of your club (how many people are attending the CanAm). If you’ve participated in the exchange before and it’s convenient, please include who you’ve been paired with previously in the “Additional Comments” section of the form.
We will let you know what club you will be paired with and the number of people in attendance for that club, so that you can plan and make purchases for your basket/bag.
There will be no organized time for the gift basket exchange. Each club will deliver their baskets at their own convenience while attending CanAm.
Email canamgbexchange@... if you have any questions.
Thank you!
Jon Bescher CanAm Gift Basket Exchange Coordinator

Want to memorialize your first Flyball dog, your club, a team or team mate? You can order a plate to be displayed on the NAFA Honor Boards at CanAm each year. The closing deadline for your plate information to be displayed at this year’s CanAm Classic, is August 6th. Check out the details at http://flyball.org/database/honorboard_entry.php You may also choose to honor your dog's other activities, such as obedience, agility, etc. The only requirement is that the dog, person or team you wish to honor is NAFA affiliated. Entries will be displayed as submitted on each plate, once approved by NAFA staff. Please note, the size and height of the letters on each line will be dictated by the number of letters per line.

Welcome to subscribers transferred from NAFANews Yahoo Group
Emma Mak
Migration from Yahoo Groups to Groups.io has been completed. All NAFANews Yahoo Group subscribers now belong to this new list. The following instructions are for those transferred subscribers: If you simply wish to receive messages from this group by email then you're all set - no further action on your part is needed.
If you need any help with Groups.io, please visit https://groups.io/static/help#faq or contact NAFA directly at flyball@.... If you do not wish to belong to this group and email list, you may unsubscribe by sending an email to NAFANews+unsubscribe@groups.io

Upcoming move to Groups.io – a new list provider
Dear NAFANews Subscribers, We’re moving! NAFA will be moving this list to Groups.io, a newer email list provider competing with Yahoo Groups, within the next week or two. Why are we moving? Yahoo stopped offering any customer service support for Yahoo Groups some time ago, and the new owners (Verizon/Oath) haven't made any public statement about the future of Yahoo Groups. What do you need to do? You won't have to do anything to continue receiving emails from NAFANews. All of our content including the list of subscribers (members) will be copied to the new provider. Warning: your spam filter may block those notices or other emails from the new group! If you notice you’re not receiving messages, please check your spam folder. To avoid this - add the new group email address (NAFANews@groups.io) to your address book, or add groups.io to your spam white list. Do I need to create a login? If you’re only interested in continuing to receive messages from NAFANews, then no. To access the archive (to see old messages) you will need to log in to the site, but that is far easier than it ever was with Yahoo Groups. Instructions will be included in the welcome messages you’ll receive. The new site is here if you want to take a look, but none of our content has been copied there yet https://groups.io/g/NAFANews When the transfer is complete you will receive two emails. One from Groups.io telling you that "You have been added" to our new group, and a Welcome message from NAFA. Look for those messages in your Inbox and/or your Spam folder. If you have any questions, or want to make any suggestions, please contact flyball@.... Thank you, North American Flyball Association

NAFA Communications Committee
NAFA is pleased to share additional details regarding the formation of a new committee focusing on improving communications within the NAFA flyball community. The committee will look at not only the content of the messages, but also the various channels of communication (i.e., website, email, social media) with the goal of optimizing the message and reaching as many in the flyball community as possible.
The NAFA Communications Committee will focus on three main work streams: 1. Official communication from the NAFA Board of Directors to the Flyball Community: This area will focus on official information regarding the NAFA Policies and Rules of Racing as well as any clarification or communication that the Board of Directors needs to provide to the flyball community. 2. NAFA CanAm Classic Tournament: With the 10th anniversary of CanAm happening this year, we want to ensure that all information regarding this tournament is communicated to everyone in a clear and timely fashion, encouraging everyone to attend this special event. 3. Flyball Community Engagement: This area will focus on information sharing between the participants in flyball (e.g., regional happenings, training tips, equipment advice, general Q&A, etc.).
The members of the committee are: (non-board members are identified with an asterisk *) · Cindy Henderson * - Committee Chair (Region 13) · Neil Flood (Region 3) · Steve Corona (Region 5) · Kim Davis (Region 5) · Emma Mak (Region 2) · Aaron Robbins (Region 2) · Dede Crough * (Region 15) · Kathy Haney * (Region 6/16) · Jayne McQuillen * (Region 21)
The committee looks forward to working with the NAFA Board of Directors and engaging the entire flyball community in a way that brings us all together for the enjoyment of flyball. If there are any suggestions for ways to improve communication, please send them to the committee chair Cindy Henderson at cindyhenderson23@... .
