The Genetic Manipulators Club of Show Standards
An interest Check
WHAT IS IT?
The Genetic Manipulators Club (or GMC), is a public Club on Show Standards to help track, promote and aid in the creation of new breeds within the Show Standards community.
We plan on doing this by offering the following to our members:
Custom tracking sheets to our members to be used in organizing breed goals, breed Standards, requirements, and other breeders etc.
Shows for crossbreds who are aiming to become new breeds. This will include conformation shows, breed restricted activity tests, etc. Breeds registered with the GMC will also be automatically entered into the breed in progress programs in any of Tia's other clubs.
We are developing a new Show type that will allow for the evaluation of breeding stock. This will use a scoring system set up by the breed creator and the GMC to aid in determining the best breeding stock available!
Shows to evaluate and test foundation stock purebreds for up and coming breeds. Including conformation, activities and the above mentioned breeding shows. These shows will ONLY be open to registered breeders of the breed as it is assumed those dogs they own will be used to create these breeds.
The GMC will be open to ALL species avaliable on Show Standards! This will make it the first multi-Species club!
We will be looking into custom certificates for animals that hit different milestones within the club, plus end of year prizes, etc! Since crossbreds can't earn points or titles in breed restricted sports, this will allow you to have something to brag about!
The GMC will be working with Tia's other clubs that are breed restrictive to allow for cross club awards/points/etc collection! Plus we are open to doing this with any other club who's interested!
THE COST:
Right now there will be two costs:
Breed Registration: this is paid ONCE to register a new breed and do the set up. This is required before anyone else may register as another breeder or Show foundations of that breed. This must be done by the breeds creator. The cost is $5000 per breed to register.
Breeder Registration: you must register you establishment with the GMC in order for your animals to compete. This will be a yearly requirement for all establishments! The cost of this is $500 per breed, regardless of species and covers ALL animals you own for that breed. So if you're involved with 5 breeds, it would be $2500 a SS year.
Note! You do NOT have to pay a breeders registration IF you are the creator of that breed. You simply pay to register the breed and are done.
This is an interest Check ONLY! Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions, comments or suggestions!
