Reminder to all Members

Posted on July 26, 2021July 26, 2021 by Angela Profitt

Please remember if you are looking for an event to work for hours, consult with the website first. If you have any questions about available hours, contact the person in charge of the event you wish to volunteer for. They will help you know for sure if there are any available positions. Some events don’t need anyone more than the trial committee, some need a lot more.

The trial chair is in charge at the trial/event. They will have things set up the way the judge wants them. Whatever the judge says, is how the set up will be handled. Any disagreements need to be handled quietly and discreetly. Please step away from exhibitors to have such a discussion and don’t speak poorly about one another afterwards.

Any questions can be sent to Angela at [email protected].

Thank you!

Signing In, Locking Up, and Borrowed Equipment

Posted on July 22, 2021July 22, 2021 by Angela Profitt

Hello all ,

Signing In.

If you come in to train during non class hours, please sign in and out on the sheet hanging on the wall over the counter. Be sure you grab the correct form! When you are done with the sheet, please return it to the hangar on the wall.

Locking Up

When leaving, check that there’s no one in the bathrooms and turn off the lights. Check that the board is in the back door and set the locks on the front doors. If you don’t know how, ask someone to show you. Make sure any equipment you used is properly put away. Turn off lights in both rooms. (middle light in front room stays on) Set the alarm. If done properly you will hear short beeps, which are your warning to vacate the building. A loud alarm noise will sound to let you know that it is armed. You want to be outside before it makes that sound. If you do not have a key and a code you cannot properly lock the building! Make sure you have a a key carrier with you! Please bring any questions you have about setting the alarm to a board member, if they can’t help they will find someone who can.

Borrowed Equipment.

If you have borrowed equipment from the building. (Jumps, mats, etc) please return it ASAP. Classes start on Monday and the equipment needs to be available to students.

Email me at [email protected] if you have any questions. Thank you!

Reminder! Check the calendar!

This is a friendly reminder to check the calendar before you go to the building OR THE LAND assuming that it will be free. We have several non-trial events going on over the next few weeks, including events at the land and in the building. Some are all day events, and some are just a few hours.

Don’t just check the “Side bar” calendar, but actually go to the calendar on the website to be certain the space is free!

Session 4 Class Registration

Posted on July 6, 2021July 6, 2021 by Gem City WebAdmin

Obedience and Agility class registration is now updated and available on the website. We will not be having “early” registration for members this time, please be respectful of the club’s need for income after the pandemic and leave the lower obedience classes for paying students.

We understand many of you just want to get out of the house and see people, and we’d love to have you as instructors! If you are interested, please contact either the Agility or the Obedience Director!
