[SCG] [Corsabod] Making stock class,Concours

[dal]

I inherited records that were scattered in a box, totally disorganized.  Not sure if this was just a part or supposedly all there.   The records for the last two years since I have started are filed and in fairly good order, including working on a complete master judges list with active participation contacts and email address.  This is a timeless job to do it right.  Bob and Ray were a marvelous team to learn and work under.  I admired and looked forward in helping those two through out their reign.
