Annual Holiday Party Changed to
Saturday, December 12
At the request of our hostess, members voted to schedule the annual holiday party and December meeting on Saturday, December 12 rather than Sunday. The festivities will begin at 4 p.m. at the home of Janet Armstrong and Gary Flightner in Gresham, OR.
The club will provide a main entrée and drinks. Club members are asked to bring a salad, dessert, or other side dish to round out the feast. Janet would appreciate it if members would RSVP with what they are planning to bring so she can try to make sure we have a balance of foods.
We will also have a fun gift exchange during which participants can steal from each other. If you wish to participate, bring a wrapped gift with a value of no more than $15.
Another Successful CERF Clinic & Supported Entry
Ellen Parr organized another very successful CERF Clinic at the WVKC show on Sunday, November 8. In addition to Ellen, members Lynn Ramsdale, Ken Jorgenson, and Gloria Long ran the event. Board certified ophthalmologist Dr. Sara Maxwell examined 60+ dogs. The event raised about $500 for CWBC. This is the fourth CERF Clinic that CWBC has offered at the WVKC show.
Thanks Ellen and crew
Winners Get Treats!
CWBC supported the Beagle entry at the Willamette Valley Kennel Club show on Sunday, November 8. Winners, Reserve Winners, Best of Opposite, and Best of Winners received bags of toys and treats. First in class took home a magnet with a patriotic Beagle motif. Best of Variety winners got a crate. The prizes were much appreciated—especially by the Beagles who got to eat the treats and play with the toys!
