BCCNC 2009 Specialty Update

I will be chairing the specialty this year and the date of our specialty is Friday, August 28, 2009.. We are once again holding our Specialty Show, Sweepstakes and Obedience Trial in conjunction with the Gold Country Kennel Club at the Nevada County Fairgrounds in Grass Valley. This location is lovely and has a terrific campground (full hook-ups for quite a few spots) admidst lots of towering pine trees.

Something new is that we are going to Secretary our own show this year instead of using MB-F. many thanks to Kim Munoz who will be handling this important job for us. Right now we are currently working on our show application and once it's approved, the judges can be announced.

A couple of new things we hope to have with our specialty this year is an Optigen 20/20 DNA testing clinic and a BCSA Judges Education Seminar.

We always appreciate volunteers for this event and it takes many people to help make a Specialty show a success. No experience is needed to volunteer and if you are interested please e-mail me at
borderbrats@wavecable.com . By the way, we are looking for someone to chair the 2010 specialty and volunteering for this specialty is a terrific way to learn the ropes!

Some of our other wonderful members on the Show Committee are:

Jayme Martinez - Obedience Chair
Susan Joder - Ribbons
Sandy Bohr
Carol Braden - Trophy Chair
Pam Hartman - Raffle Chair
Hospitality - Vacant
Dr. Cindy Norman, DVM - Onsite Vet & Optigen blood draws
Lisa Marie Brown - Disaster Coordinator
Jamie Jackson - Judges Education & Optigen 20/20 Clinic

We'll keep you updated as things progress!!! Most of all save the date and we hope we'll see you there!
