Grooming Project

Thank you for volunteering to help develop the new Grooming the Bouvier topic of our new website. Everyone is excited to see this topic section develop! We understand the amount of work it will take to complete this goal. Marilyn and I will help guide all volunteers through this process. We have a solid plan and are ready to go.

If you would like to chair this topic, please let us know. We'd love to have someone lead this effort.

Where We're Headed
If you were in attendance at the National or an annual membership meeting, the website redesign committee talked about an updated direction for a new website. One that focuses on education, community and connecting Bouvier folks with like minded interests. Our goal is to bring together the existing and potential Bouvier communities.

We'll use a collection of content to get started developing the webpage:

• Information about the grooming itself:
  • Get started in this particular sport
  • Equipment needed
  • List of Breed Mentors. This is a voluntary role geared towards encouraging members to mentor other Bouvier owners in grooming.
• Articles
  
• Interviews - What's your grooming style?
  
• Photos
• Videos
• Event List
• Member items for sale
• Other resources as identified can be later in a potential future Phase 3.

Approach to Getting this Project Done
Kick-off online conference for all volunteers. We'll review the existing plan, open brainstorm for anything missing and check in on next steps to move forward!

Tasks

1. Mo & Marilyn: Solicit volunteers. See sidebar for current status.
2. Mo: Schedule online kick-off with volunteers. Record meeting for those who couldn't attend.
   
3. Mo: Working with Nancy Villwock to collect  a variety of photos. Then, review other photos we have from current website.
