matchflyer2019

Join us on Friday night, April 26th for our AKC Sanctioned B Match!

Registration starts at 5 p.m. and judging at 6 p.m.

Everyone welcome! We’ll have beverages and snacks and time to socialize too. This is a great opportunity to get a little practice with your dog before the weekend’s shows– in the rings that you’ll be showing in over the weekend. And if you’re not entered in the show, you can still enter the match.

Don’t forget to get your entries in for our annual all-breed show– it closes Wednesday, April 13.

(That’s Cincinnati native and silent film star Theda Bara and her Borzoi Bella on this year’s poster.)

We are again featuring Best Veteran in Breed and Veteran Parade, Best Brace in Show, National Owner-Handler Series, and on Sunday afternoon, Coursing Ability Tests.

As always, parking is free, and there is complimentary coffee on tap all day long. We have goodies in the  morning (until they’re gone) and serve refreshments in the afternoon during groups. There’s a Best of Breed prize in every breed and extra prizes in many.

Yes, there is still a bit of Premium RV camping available– but all the camping is reasonably close with electric and water at each site. The Premium is guaranteed to be closest, and also has 50 amp (and 30+30 amp) service as well as sewer hookups.

If you haven’t visited us before, the show is indoors, in one big building, on concrete. Great vendors alongside the rings, plenty of free grooming space and a bit of reserved space available ($25 for the weekend) if  you just need to be absolutely certain there’s a spot for you.

We have a stellar judging panel this year, and we’re especially pleased to welcome Mr. Nicolas DeBedout from Bogota, Colombia.

It’s going to be a wonderful weekend, we hope to see you there!

Reserved Grooming!

Reserved

 

Just a reminder that for the first time there will be reserved grooming available at our show. We have lots of free grooming space (all in the same building with the rings), but we have been told that some people would be willing to pay to have a good spot reserved for them so they didn’t have to worry about it.

So the spots immediately adjacent to the rings will be reserved for the weekend for $25 each section.

(I don’t have an immediate size, but approximately 8 by 10) There is electric at each site.

If you’d like to reserve a space, send us an email at fsckc@earthlink.net, send us a check to Fort St. Clair Kennel Club, 1010 W. Riverview Ave, Dayton, OH 45402, or give us a call at (937) 781-6561. We need to know by Monday, April 21 so that we may mark off the spaces.
