Greetings from a much cooler Ontario Canada!

First and foremost I’d like to thank everyone who entered our show this past weekend. Thank you for your entry. Congratulations to all!

Full results and critiques will be added to our club website in the near future:

I’d like to thank Judy Heim for judging our Specialty Show and Unofficial classes on Saturday and Jean-Louis Blais for judging our Specialty Show on Sunday. Special thanks also to Leslie Grant for judging our Puppy and Veteran Sweepstakes on Saturday and for Ring Stewarding for us on Sunday.

I’d also like to take this opportunity to thank all the people who donated their time and energy to help make our show a great success:

Jennifer Anderson
Carol Burrows
Chris Burrows
Deborah Leslie
Jim Leslie
Brent Harrison
Wendy Harrison
Linda Wyatt-deGroot
As well as all the people at the show who gave a helping hand where needed. Thank you.

Thank you to all the members of the Limestone Kennel Club for hosting our show.

I’d like to thank everyone who made a donation to our Silent Auction table. Our silent Auction table and raffle was a huge success this year. The winner of the print was Sam Neff.

On Saturday, in addition to the top prizes, everyone who placed in their class from first to fourth was given a prize. All of this was made possible by our sponsors – which I’d like to thank again in closing:

I'd also like to thank Sue McDermid for the very good idea of having ice water for both the dogs and exhibitors ring side and for supplying the styrofoam
bowls.

It was also Sue's idea last year to have a Piper at our anniversary show and Sue put me in contact with "the Piper".

Thank you Sue!

Joanne

Thank you EOLBA and for everyone that made it possible! Having the water and cups/bowls available ringside for both the people and dogs was such a great idea.


And Joanne, THANK YOU for being always available for any concerns or questions! I know your feet were hurting by the end of the weekend from all your running around.

Til next year ...

Great Job Joanne - you and the other members did a great job. Every element of the "special" was handled well with Labs, handlers and spectators being cared for with great concern. I can't wait to attend next year, ware ever, when ever.

Thanks Again
