The Gem City Rat Rompers, GCDOC Barn Hunt Club is hosting a trial June 22-23. We are looking for volunteers. Come have fun volunteering and learning what Barn Hunt is all about. Location is 542 Valleycrest Dr., Dayton, OH 45404. Building IS climate controlled!
The club has a John Deere riding mower which was originally purchased about 20(?) years ago and used at the Land. It has been deemed surplus as it has not been running nor needed for some time. The board decided that the money required to repair it would be better put towards other projects. No, I don’t know what is wrong with it. Therefore the small JD riding mower is to be disposed of AS IS to a club member who might be interested and willing to make a donation. It must be removed by Memorial day, 2024. We have had two people express interest so far.
I need to hear from you if interested, no later than Wednesday, May 15th.
Please contact John Clifford if interested at this email ( 7681tr78@gmail.com ).
Just our yearly friendly reminder that when trials are happening at either location, the ENTIRE location is closed for the duration of the trial. Most venues stipulate that no non-competitive animals are allowed at the location, and we wouldn’t want to get a fine or have our ability to hold trials with that venue revoked!
Please check the website calendar for trials before assuming the building or the land are available to you, and please keep in mind that trial workers often set up 12-24 hours in advance of the trail, and once set up has started, it is considered off limits!
Class registration is now open to everyone.

We are looking for a few volunteers for the Earthdog Trials on April 27 and 28. Some walking on uneven ground and standing is involved. Other than that, the work isn’t strenuous. No prior Earthdog experience is required. You will do a variety of tasks, such as opening and closing a gate, managing a line of competitors, being a helper for the judge, etc. You also don’t have to have a dog in Earthdog to volunteer for Earthdog. We might be finished each day before 6.

ALSO – Greene County parks does “full moon” walks, and we plan to participate in those, as well. Stay posted for upcoming additional dates – but this is what we have so far! See everyone at Wegerzyn on 3/10!
