BLONDE CONNECTION
Blonde Connection 2008 issue

This publication highlights the actions of the Board of the Canadian Blonde d'Aquitaine Association to streamline the inner workings of the Association.

The Association would like to thank those who have advertised in the Blonde Connection and for making it possible to bring the Blonde voice to the purebred and commercial industry after a four-year hiatus. The editorial will provide you with information to better assist your operation which, in turn, ensures the growth of the breed in Canada.

This issue includes articles from each of the provincial associations and Canadian Livestock Records Corporation, as well as the 2008 Membership Directory. For information on how you can participate in next year's issue, contact any member of the Board of Directors.
