Current News for Members
All year we’ve been collecting titles for your dogs on our website getting ready for the awards banquet!
Please double check the list that we currently have is correct for typos and mistakes. Please contact Maggie directly to correct these. DO NOT CORRECT THEM ON THE WEBSITE!
Deadline to submit titles is January 3.
Pester Plumbing is planning to work on the Men’s Restroom TOMORROW 12/24/19-12/25/19.
There may or may not be running water at the club while work is going on.
Merry Christmas!
Recently the building has been found empty, but the alarm not set. This is NOT an acceptable state to leave our club building in. We have experienced vandalism recently, and leaving our building security alarm unset needs to stop. The repeat offenders WILL have their building access revoked. Our security cameras both inside and out work in high definition, and we can find the abusers.
SET THE ALARM WHEN YOU ARE LEAVING THE BUILDING EMPTY!

It is time for Scotty Meyer Sportsmanship Nominations. I have included a description of the Award below. They need to be received by 12-31-19. Please email your Nomination to me at [email protected]. A list of the past winners is on the website under “Club Awards”.
Scotty Meyer Sportsmanship Award. This award honors one special person who has promoted the club and dog sportsmanship. The individual makes a quality contribution to the success of most events sponsored by the club, and is eager to help both the beginner person and the more experienced dog handler. Nominations are accepted in writing by the Chair of the Awards committee. The person receiving the most nominations will be announced by the previous year’s winner at the Annual Awards Banquet.
Thanks,
Terri Hendrix
Gem City is parade unit 14. The staging location is along West Second
street. We will probably be near the intersection of West Second and
Wilkinson. Look for a pole with #14 on it and dogs you know. No need to
check in with parade officials. Pam Murn will do that for all of Gem City.
The parade happens no matter what the weather is like. It may rain. Dress
warmly and festively. Be in that staging area at 7pm Friday November 29th.
Pam Murn will have a sign in sheet for volunteer hours. You will be able to
recognize her because she will have a goofy golden retriever with her.
Parking is where ever. Pam likes to park east of Sinclair College near the
end of the parade route.

It seems that the new registration forms are set up just a little different from the previous registration forms. If you are struggling to find the “voucher” option or “member” option, they are very similar to last time.
As you can see, you choose that your dog is owned by a member in good standing, and you get a discount off your class, bringing it down to $35 (plus paypal fees). If in the second section you choose “I have a voucher for a free class” Yes or No, to either reduce your rate to free (and bring that voucher to class!) or not.
Hope this helps! Happy registration!!
