PRESIDENTS REPORTPRESIDENTS REPORTPRESIDENTS REPORTPRESIDENTS REPORT

As President I’m so pleased with the performance of our club and the dedication of all those members who continue to work tirelessly for the club and those of you that con-tinue to keep me in line no easy task I might add. But most importantly it was great to see

Maree back at the club trialing and working once again just don’t overdo it Maree.

Members it is important to look after our health and your family must come first, so some-times it gets a bit crazy out there, when we have a member sick or family issues, but that’s the time when we need people to step up and assist where they can, and thanks to a few great people that have stepped up to assist & help has been appreciated. I’m not going to name names here in case I miss someone you all know who you are and as President thank

you for your support and assistance.

Guys what a great weekend we have just had. 2 Rally O trials on Saturday and 2 Obedience trials Sunday, I must say great team work by you all, even the weather was so kind to us. I must also comment on the continued sponsorship from Albury & Border Kennel Club Inc. Shepparton & District Obedience Dog Club Inc. This was appreciated very much, thank you for your continued support of our club. Thanks also to those that made slices etc. for our

canteen again well done I believe our canteen did very well.

Thanks also to all the club members for their assistance with stewarding and helping with our trial & to see so many of our newer members working with us on the weekend is just fantastic. To see you all out there working with a smile on your face the friendly atmosphere is what we are about. Great club great teamwork and even better enthusiasm to make it all work. This also includes our Catering staff Office staff and those that assisted that are not

even members of our great club. You have all done your club proud as president, thank you.

I believe all our judges did a great job over the weekend our grounds were a credit to you all thanks to the Wangaratta Council guys who did get it mowed for us & those that assisted

with setting up for the whole weekend, from those little tasks to the bigger ones.

Congratulation to all our members who trialed on the week end, and gained passes and or gained there titles Well done to you all. I hope you all get your information to Maree, remem-ber your news letter is only as good as the information we give to Maree so keep those im-

portant achievements going in.

Most importantly welcome to all the new members and congratulations to all those mem-

bers that have progressed throughout the various classes.

We must keep in mind the June Championship show June Championship show June Championship show June Championship show is fast approaching so please lets en-sure we assist Janet to lighten her load as well. We need Volunteers to help once again over the 2 days and we need your continued assistance with this event. If you can support your

club in any way with anything your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

CLUB NEWS CLUB NEWS CLUB NEWS CLUB NEWS I am happy to inform everyone that there will be a new perpetual trophy in honour of one of the clubs founding members Ruby Eggleton. This trophy will be replacing the Ian McBain Trophy which has been around for many years and because hardly any of the present club members remember or feel

they have any identity with the name it was decided that it be renamed to reflect the work and dedication Ruby has made and her contribution to the Wangaratta club.

The Ruby Eggleton Perpetual Trophy will be offered to those club members who would like to enter their dogs into the Ruby Eggleton Open Dog Class on Sunday 29th June 2014

To be eligible to enter this new FREE class; ⇒ You must be a current Wangaratta club member

⇒ Dog must be 3 months or over to qualify

⇒ For eligible dogs that are either Entire or Neuter

⇒ The Dog must be entered in Sunday’s catalogue to be eligible

⇒ Trophy & Sash for 1st, 2nd & 3rd Place

⇒ Perpetual Trophy to remain in the club room. Trophy will be engraved with the winner’s name & dog & put on display

The committee feel this is something that can be given to the club members as a special acknowledgement of their commitment to our club

Can cold water clean dishes?Can cold water clean dishes?Can cold water clean dishes?Can cold water clean dishes? This is for you germ conscious folks who worry about cold water to clean. John went to visit his 90 year old grandfather in a very secluded rural area of Saskatchewan After spending a great evening chatting the night away, the next morning John’s grandfather prepared breakfast of bacon, eggs and toast, however John noticed a film like substance on his plate and questioned his grandfather ‘Are these plates clean?’ His grandfather replied “ They’re as clean as cold water can get em. Just go ahead and finish your meal sonny!. For lunch the old man made hamburgers. Again John was concerned about the plates as his appeared to have tiny speck around the edges like bits of dried egg and asked again ‘Are you sure these plates are clean’? Without looking up the old man said “Look I told you before they are as clean as cold water can get em. Now don’t you fret, I don’t want to hear another word about it!. Later that afternoon John was on his way to a nearby town, and as he was leaving his grandfathers dog started to growl, and wouldn’t let him pass. John yelled ‘Grandfather your dog won’t let me get to my car’ Without diverting his eyes from the football game he was watching on TV, the old man shouted. “ COLD WATER, go lay down now, yah hear me!......................Meet Cold Water

Kyeamba Kennel and Training Club held their

Agility and Jumping Trial on 26th/27th April

2014, they were blessed with perfect trialling

weather and a very nice ground. Wangaratta

members, Helen Vernon with Jip, Sharon Allen

with Mia, and Julie Rafferty with Jasper com-

peted, while Patricia Looker fairly judged all (no

freebies given here). However Patricia gener-

ously gave advice to many appreciative trailers

just starting out. Although the results do not

reflect the good work done by the club handlers and their dogs, they will no doubt

be trialling again soon. The usual problems occurred, a rail knocked down, han-

dler lost on course, weavers not completed and dogs just having FUN.

Julie with Jasper had the luck this weekend with 2 passes in Novice Jumping plus

two 3rd placing in the ring and 2 passes in Novice Agility plus 2nd & 3rd place in the

ring, thus gaining their JD and AD titles.

Sharon and Helen and their dogs provided lots of fun and amusement when they

entered the game “Strategic Pairs”, this to be the first of many such appearances,

video provided upon request.

This weekend was reportedly an extreme fun weekend, with everyone bunking in

the one residence.

So come on Wangaratta agility handlers, get with it and have a fun weekend at

Wagga Wagga 13 & 14 September for Obedience and Rally O.
