AUGUST 1ST — MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
I would like to address some misinformation that has been circulating regarding the 9th Edition, Version 1 of the ANDRC Guidebook.
The Board of Directors approved a one-time expense of $15,420 to print 1,250 copies of the 9th Edition Guidebook to provide a complimentary copy to each active member household. $15,420 was the price quoted by the printer at the discount level for the quantity of Guidebooks approved.
The Guidebook Editor has not received any compensation for their time, talent, or resources used in the production of the Guidebook. I am grateful of the work and dedication Editor Jeremy Collins put into the 9th Edition Guidebook and to the Board of Directors for supplying the membership with a free copy.
The ANDRC fiscal year ends on August 31, 2026. A full financial report will be presented to the Board of Directors and membership at the 2026 ARBA Convention. I have requested an audit be conducted at the conclusion of the fiscal year with the goal to have any findings presented to the Board of Directors and the membership at the 2026 ARBA Convention and be published in the Winter 2026 issue of the Dwarf Digest.
Respectfully,
Cole Rupprecht
ANDRC President
