It’s that time year again Gem City Dog Club will be providing a little Christmas cheer for the Eastway Boys Group Home next to Gem City’s Dog Club Building on Northcutt. Each year we try to provide some Christmas gifts or a large gift that all the boys can enjoy throughout the year. We will be accepting donations made out to Gem City Dog Obedience Club. Last year we were able to purchase 2 table top gaming systems and 25 board games and puzzles. Carole Lenehan, Mary Beam & Terri Hendrix will be organizing this endeavor.
Please contact Terri Hendrix at [email protected] with your donation amount so we know what to budget for this year. Thank you.

All
I am organizing an initial cleanup at the LAND on Saturday. November 25th.
The LAND needs to be closed from noon to 3:30pm while we haul and pitch stuff. Barn Hunt is taking off and the place needs a bit of a cleaning up. I encourage anyone who thinks that they have a vested interest in items at the Land to meet us there on Saturday. There has been Stuff stored there for years now and not moved or been used. We will be starting in the white carport (which is falling apart) on the south side of the Barn Hunt (Faulkner) building, but anything inside the Lenahan building or outside could be fair game.
We might get to a bunch of wood skids which will need to be cut up. Some of the old orange snow fencing may also be pitched. I have had discussions with Suzie, Curt, Rachel, Leah and Deb W. as to what they think should be kept. The first four people will be there, but I would certainly encourage anyone else that could use some volunteer hours to join us.
Hey, no bugs and not too hot, what else do you need? Bring water, gloves and boots. No dogs.
Sorry for the late notice.
Thanks
John Clifford

We are 3 days away from the show and still need volunteers! Especially on Saturday! These shows/trials can NOT happen with only 3 volunteers! Also, Sunday has the very bare minimum. Please come help! Lunch is provided. You will get your required Gem City hours started! Work both days and you’ll almost have them all! If you are showing and would like to help, email me at [email protected] and we will figure something out!
Volunteers Needed! – Gem City Dog Obedience Club (gcdoc.com)
We still need volunteers for the CCC UKC Conformation Shows and Rally Trials this coming weekend! Crossroads rents workers along with the building! Please volunteer and get some hours out of the way for the year! This is a huge show that brings in good money. It can’t happen if we don’t get volunteers !https://gcdoc.com/volunteers-needed/?sheet_id=12
Happy Holidays!!
