We could use more help with the FAST CAT on Friday, Saturday and Sunday 11-5, 6, 7 from 7:30 am-3:30 pm…AM Shift is 7:30-11:30 and Afternoon is 11:30-3:30.  This is a very fun sport.  Most of the the jobs are outside.  Check in and score table help will give you a chance to have a blanket.  

We need help with all areas in particular on Sunday, I need someone to handle check in.  The event is noted as full, so the club will make a nice profit on it to support our building and other efforts.  Since the forecast is cold this weekend, I would like to have enough people to enable folks “warm up” breaks.  
Please sign up to help if you can.

Gem City has been invited to participate in the DAYTON CHILDREN’S PARADE
SPECTACULAR IN LIGHTS on Friday, November 26, 2021.  The parade takes place
after the grand illumination (Christmas tree lights up). Dress festively,
dress yourself and your dog in lights.  Bring family members and as many
dogs as you like.  We will also need 2 people to carry the Gem City banner.
About a week before the parade, an email will be sent letting you know the
meeting location in downtown Dayton, the meeting time and some dos and
don’ts.  The time is likely to be around 6:30 PM.  The parade route is about
a half mile (an easy walk).  You will receive hours for participating (about
2 hours per dog handler team, allowing for your time spent parking and
walking to the start, then waiting for the parade to start).   Click HERE to sign up on
line to give us an idea of how many participants to expect.  It’s always a
fun time.  The children love to see our dogs.

Thanks

Marcia Bashor has offered the club some equipment, x-pens, and other dog related items to keep and/or offer to members to earn a little money for the club. What we need is a couple of people with larger vehicles to go collect the items and deliver them to a temporary storage location. I am thinking we could possibly put them in one of the buildings at the land until we can sort them out. She asked me to come on Saturday but I can’t go that day. Please contact Angela at akp511@aol.com to volunteer.

You WILL get hours for helping!
