Good for you, Arnold.  We actually publish this in our club's Show newsletter
- would you like a copy of this past years?  We also hold a workshop a week
before the show on grooming and filling out tags... anyone who comes to the
show unprepared  does not get a lot of sympathy.  We also publish a list of
judges who will actually go to a person's garden for one-on-one for anyone
who can't get to the workshop.  

Kathyguest... who thinks we do a decent job of informing and educating
