The raw early spring conditions didn't daunt the hearty group that showed at our 9th Fun Match this past Saturday. Thanks to all the tireless volunteers from the club who made this event so special. And thanks to all those who entered to support the club. We had wonderful trophies, catalogs, food, a grooming demonstration, and (of course) comradery!
Every year one particular thing makes the event special for me. This year it was the shot guns going off on the adjacent farm during the breed competition. A wise man once said that shotguns should be used to make the first cut in the sporting group (and the judges should pick from whatever isn't spooked from the ring). We were all proud that the shot guns made our dogs show even better!
Very special thanks go to:

Dawn Buttion & Laurie Stewart, Match Co-Chairs
Mark Reynolds, Match Secretary
Dawn Buttion & Jane Boraczek, Trophy Co-Chairs
Sandy Bulger, Hospitality
Richard for his expert stewarding throughout the event and once again providing and setting up our rings. He even found us dry ground to hold the conformation portion of the match!!
Our wonderful Judges Spencer Harrill and Jerry Clark!

Last but not least, the Stewarts, for graciously allowing us to use their place again.
