The club building will be closed for maintenance on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday next week (Sept 20, 21,22) from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.  We have a company coming in to clean the HVAC furnace & duct work inside and out.  They will have ladders, scaffolding and noisy vacuum equipment in both rooms.  All the agility equipment will have to be out of the way, as well as the ring gating.  We should be able to have limited use of the floor after 5:00 as long as everything is moved back out of the way for the next morning.  They do not expect to be there late on Thursday, so preparation for the AKC trial next weekend can proceed as planned.
