OFFICIAL COMMUNIQUE


NAWBA wishes to clarify a memo issued 17/12/97 [Dec 17, 1997] and announced by way of the internet, on the apparent formation of a club under the name of Pacific Gateway Working Bouvier Club. Contrary to what is stated, there currently are no NAWBA regional clubs and no request was put forth to the NAWBA board to form such a club nor host the event announced.It should be made clear that should such a club be in existence it has no current affililiation with NAWBA.Anyone wishing additional information is welcome to contact me.
