Hi everyone -
As most of you recall, we are trying to plan a meet-up of sorts for our shorthairs.net members. We decided that the best chance for this and the most semi-central location would be at the GSPCA Specialty Show in Wisconsin in May.
In prior discussions, we kicked around some ideas. As we are getting closer, I am just trying to get a head count of those who think they might be going or who are definetly going so others can decide if they want to come.
Please respond with the following information if you don't mind:
- Are you going? (Yes or Maybe)
- What dates?
- Where do you plan to stay? (Campground, Olympia Resort, Camping at the Resort, or elsewhere)
- Are you doing any events?
- Who are you bringing? (Dogs, family, kids, etc)
That will help us all get a better idea of what to expect from our little group!
THANKS! |

I would wait until the February issue of Shorthair Journal, there should be plenty of information in there, including a contact for RV spaces and other information. You'll also receive a premium in the mail (most likely, its been a long time since it was included with SJ) for Striker's entry. Remember to fill it out completely (questions, let me know). On RV parking tho, get that in asap as there may be a limited amount of space.
You guys who are thinking on planning a big shindig...there is an all-inclusive Margarita/Tattoo party held one of the nights of the NSS, also seminars, obedience, rally, adult and junior handling along with all the classes and other competitions (Tracking Test, Hunt Test). Between those and attending delegate and general membership meetings...trust me, there is plenty to do and lots of people to meet...and then, there are all the dogs. 
Marcia...Striker will be in 9-12 sweeps and also the 9-12 classes. Don't forget your DNA numbers on the entry form.

So Monday, 2 May, is the day of the Agility trials at the Olympia resort. I am off that day following a weekend of hunt tests and will be getting ready for the obedience and conformation. Anyone who wants to come hang out at my rig is more than welcome. I will be the one with the red Ford F150 with the fifth wheel (Cougar on the side) also known as the Shorthair Express by my friends (it has some shorthair decals on the rear). Just knock and introduce yourself. You will absolutely be greated by a chorus from my dogs. I will probably have Ringo, Halo and Fauna with me. Belle is probably going to stay with Grandma and Grandpa since she is not competing this year. If anyone is interested in a happy hour, let me know and I will get stuff for appetizers and you all can BYOB. I will likely have wine with me, but if you like something else, be sure you bring it. Can't wait to meet you guys.
If the GSPCA schedules something for that afternoon/evening, we may have to work around it, but for now consider yourself invited. |
