The NTSRI is seeking persons interested in serving the position of
TREASURER. Please contact any member of the Board of Directors to express
your interest.
NOTICE REGARDING CHRISTENING:
The NTSRI Board of Directors has
authorized the christening of rams and ewes for a fee of $25.00 per animal
named. If you want to name your registered Tunis and have that name appear
on the registration paper, you must christen your sheep through the
NTSRI's registry group, Associated Registries.
In order to ensure that the initial granting of christened names is fair
with regard to breeders that have already been using a name, the Board of
Directors has established that all persons should submit existing names to
be christened by U.S mail or fax by January 1st. If the name is not
requested by anyone else by that date, the person will be awarded that
name. If two persons timely request the same name, the christened name
will include the breeder's name as well. Therefore, if both Mr. Smith and
Mr. Jones submitted the name "Big One" for a ram, then Mr. Smith's ram
would be awarded "Smith's Big One" and Mr. Jones would be awarded "Jones
Big One".
After January 1st, names will be
awarded to the person who first requests the name as determined by the
postmark or fax time stamp to Associated Registries.
If you have any questions, please contact your Director or Associated
Registries.
