Trial Chair’s Needed!!

We have two positions that are open right now for the June 13-14th Obedience Trial:

The ribbon committee person that actually gets all the ribbons ready for each one of the rings

The hospitality committee person which is in charge of the food. With that position it’s mostly overseeing as we would have volunteers that would serve and if the person was an able we could also one of us could buy the food what we were needing them to do is organize what food they would want and serving each day.

NO previous experience needed! Some set-up and prep will be required, additional hours for your effort will be granted. Trial committee members need to be present at trials.

These Committee members need to be set now so that your names can be added to the Premium.

Obedience Class Registration OPEN!

The class registrations for Obedience classes are now open on the website.

Please note, we have adjusted some wording on the website to better reflect our registration policies.

Entry level classes fill QUICKLY!  If you CANNOT find the class time you desire on the PayPal registration, it is because the class is CLOSED!  Classes fill on a first come, first serve basis, mailing in registration does not guarantee registration.

Due to the speed at which the electronic age has moved things along, registrars and the web admin can no longer be responsible for logging in to the website, finding the right page, and adjusting the spreadsheet with red ink when classes close.

Please register early for your favorite class by clicking here!
