The weather was hot and steamy, but despite that we
had a good turn out on Saturday, July 24th, for our CRFCRC Summer Membership meeting,
potluck, and activities. Fun was had by all! A very special thanks to Helenmary Cody for
Chairing the event and organizing and running the agility activities, and to both
Helenmary and Neal for graciously allowing us to use their place for the event. Also, a
big thank you to Marty Archambeault as the CGC evaluator and to Linda Reynolds for
hospitality.
Six dogs earned Canine Good Citizen Awards (CGC) at the event.
CONGRATULATIONS to these dogs and their owners:
"Beckett" - Victory's Beck And Call NA *CGC*
(Cody/Delventhal)
"Vita" - Blazin's Doppelbock WC *CGC* (Borden)
"Lin" - Blazin Dunlin Of Tidalflats WC *CGC*
(Boraczek/Williams)
"Valley" - Allegro's Free Valley Sunrise *CGC* (Woodward)
"Beau" - Allegro's Free Man In Paris *CGC* (Reynolds)
"Lily" - Darktarn's Velveteen Lily *CGC* (Hupp)
Helenmary set up an agility area and all the dogs and owners had a
great time doing familiarization on the agility equipment. It was great fun watching the
young puppies run through the tunnels and try things out!! Later, a novice-level course
was set up and some members and their dogs ran through showing fine athleticism and all
those hours of hard training they’ve put in.
Thanks to all those who participated in the membership meeting and
the day’s events. For information on the meeting, look for the meeting notes in our
next newsletter.
