Partner Milestones: Eitan turned the big 80 and Lyn is now officially a “senior citizen”

Thank you to all who helped make this B-Day so very special. It was a week long celebration of song, dance and food. Of course lots of laughter too. Lyn also celebrated her senior citizen birthday just a few days after 8’s. Happiest of Birthdays to both.

Clinician and Judges Continuing Education Development on 2012 Schedule

The CDW Partners are aware that a more in depth and defined continuing education program for Judges and Clinicians (combined) needs to be put into place. This will be a mandatory program that will be available online as well as live so that all across the world can be included. It will help keep the professionals on the same page, up to date and proficient. It will help the Partners be more connected to the CDW professional community. This is one of the main projects for the Partners in 2021. Always moving forward……

Reminder….. Remuda membership, Clinician and Judging fees are due in Jan.
Renewal reminder emails are already being sent out.
Thanks for your support.
