Candidate for Corresponding Secretary

Lynn Pettinato <secretary@gspca.org>

Thank you for confidence from the Nominating Committee for including me in your slate for the upcoming 2023 election.  I have strived to work very hard with the changing landscape of our board – new members and officers – as well help to add value via Social Media.  Our social media numbers have been on the rise for 2 years now and provides mostly daily content for dogs owners, club news, and AKC news. Over the next two years, I hope to bring awareness and raise money with the health and welfare committee for all health initiatives and especially Canine Epilepsy .  I am pictured here with Dani, our first epileptic dog.  She taught us a great deal, that we use still with our second epileptic dog, Tori.

I have been a member of the GSPCA for 20 years. My husband, Dominic, now Northwest Director, and I have been involved in our local club, the GSPC of Northern Sacramento Valley.  We are involved with events. I am the club treasurer this year.  In the past, we were active as event chairs, event secretary, judging and participating in walking field trials, hunt tests and specialty shows.  My goal for this term includes expanding our social media presence to bring in the next generation of members and perhaps monetize our GSPCA brand to generate income.  Please let us know if you can help in any of those areas.  Thank you so much for your years of support. I look forward to hopefully serving you for 2 more years.
