A few more trials are coming up this fall. Do you have your practices secured? There's nothing like training in a show environment, so join us for our Fun Match!

Still plenty of places to help at the trial next weekend. We can't run a successful trial without proper help in the rings. Our kitchen needs more help both days as some of the crew are showing their dogs. This is our big event. Come join us. We will train you.

Raffle Items needed for the trial - if you're donating items to go into baskets please bring to training this Thursday and give to Taffy so that the person putting baskets together can do so. Anything from dog toys to gift cards are welcome and baskets will be assembled to be raffled off during Saturday's trial. If you have complete baskets to donate or items that are too big for baskets, bring to the Match on Thursday 11/14.

This time of year I know we're all super swamped. But, Thursdays you're usually committed to training anyway, so why not come to the match! Stewards arrive by 6:30 and stay till we finish, usually at about 8:30. You get a free run through in any class, a work credit, and sugar to keep your energy up! Come have fun with us!

27/10/2024

Our last match of the year is on November 14th! Get your work credits in while you can, and I'm planning on treats for stewards!

We'd like to have a basket raffle on Saturday of the obedience trial, but cannot do that if we don't get donations to raffle off. I have someone this year who will assemble baskets, but you can drop a premade one off to me or get me items to put in a basket. Gift cards are always nice as well. Thanks, Taffy Wille, Trial Chairperson.

Club members! We need your help to run a smooth obedience trial. Please visit FVDTC.org and click the link to sign up and help. I see the kitchen has no one to help along with lots of stewards needed for the individual rings. We also need grounds crew to help Cheryl Lewis with that job.
